  2. treatment of student nurses on the floor

    Tyler77 replied to teterichko123's topic in General Students

    Actual patient care comes first on a hospital floor? Really? With all the texting, eye-rolling, and gossip that nurses do on the floor, I'm surprised they have TIME to take care of patients! Isn't...

  3. Feedback on Middlesex County College / Raritan Bay Med Ctr nursing program

    Tyler77 replied to WorkingClassDog's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    If you got along great witht the instructors, then good for you. There'ss ome instructors there that I've just wanted to ask "If you're so miserable and unreceptive to students, why are you in what's...

  4. Nursing School Not For Me

    Tyler77 replied to daniellevw's topic in General Students

    If a student is dreading the fact even GOING to class, there's a lot to be said. If they've made their decision that nursing school isn't for them, just let them be...Telling them to "tough it out" is...

  5. So I might not get to start nursing school afterall...

    Tyler77 replied to mamayogibear's topic in General Students

    A lot of female nursing students are going through what you go. It's the same routine: boyfriend tells girlfriend that "he'll always be there for her", get her pregnant, and RUNS when he finds out...

    Tyler77 replied to nursingstudent_88's topic in General Students

  7. Nursing or Medicine???

    Tyler77 replied to PallaviMuraleedharan's topic in General Students

    Is this thread for real? Why do people choose medicine? Answer: Money! Let's not start with the "holisitc" approach or "I can give better care to patients at the bedside." Puh-leez. Go sell that to...

  8. ATTENTION MOMMIES!

    Tyler77 replied to mommy_5's topic in General Students

    If you're 30 and have 5 kids, I hope their father is in the picture, or you're married to him!! Seems like every female that was under 25 in my class that had kids either a) had NO contact with her...

    Tyler77 replied to chiasmus100's topic in General Students

    An A- is unacceptable. Re-take the class and pray you get an

  10. I absolutely HATE it!

    Tyler77 replied to Manepride's topic in General Students

    What you describe goes on in every program--the cattiness, drama, etc. Don't give them ammo. If another student asks you a personal question, be vague with your answer so they can't make any dumb...

  11. Fresh new nursing student looking for advice/direction

    Tyler77 replied to mom22many's topic in General Students

    Just say to yourself: "I will not be a drama queen in class." "I will come to class on time." "I will not text during clinicals." "I will not gossip/backstab/make up stories abou other people." "I...

  12. Microbiology... prof has horrible rating on RMP

    Tyler77 replied to breezy7's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Breezy7, Wait till you go out there in the real world and deal with misearable, bitter, catty nurses. You can't walk to HR and ask "Can I have a transfer out of Nurse Smith's Dept. She's mean!" Good...

  13. denial to reapply to take the test

    Tyler77 replied to chunsa01's topic in General Nursing

    Just lovin' this: although what I did was a violation, i don't think that what I did was wrong. Not like I was cheating." This "oh blame someone or soemthing else" attitude is soooo rampant these...

  14. Nursing Students- Were Any of You "B" Students- and Still Got Accepted?

    Tyler77 replied to lifelearningrn's topic in General Students

    OK I had a 2.4. I'm white, no kids, not in any need of financial assistance. I'm not catty ("Oh did you see the shoes she was wearing!!). My dad is not a doctor, my mother will probabbly never be...

  15. Muhlenburg Nursing program vs Middlesex County College

    Tyler77 replied to Lee17's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    I only have experience with MCC, and the negative attitude and "holier than thou" attitude among the nursing staff is unbearable. Unless it's due to personal reasons, nearly EVERYONE passes the first...

  16. Dismissed from the Nursing Program...what to do now?

    Tyler77 replied to Resp2's topic in General Students

    You have ADD and decided that you want to take an ACCELERATED program that requires MORE attention? Something doesn't wash here. Otherwise, welcome to life. Everyone has the "It wasn't my fault"...

  17. 100% on my exam and it wasn't exciting... :(

    Tyler77 replied to NICURN2013's topic in General Students

    Just more evidence on why one SHOULD NOT become a nurse. A clinical instructor (or class instructor) that is petty, backstabbing, placing accusations on others is just a mirror of what's going on out...

  18. Fundies is killing me

    Tyler77 replied to wannabmidwife's topic in General Students

    If you're having problems in Fundamentals, you are in a bad situation. In my school, if you had a pulse you could pass Fundamentals (the school does it to "lure" you into the Med-Surg, so you can pay...

  19. Getting withdrawn because of a pre-req. Dispute?

    Tyler77 replied to m2736185's topic in General Students

    Another example of "Not my fault" syndrome. You were told that you had to make a speech. In advance. If you thought it was "vague", why couldn't you clarify the iffy points with the instructor. And,...

  20. Middlesex County College/RBMC anyone?

    Tyler77 replied to WorkingClassDog's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    For all the nursing classes, you're going to be in a huge lecture hall with 80+ students that are either: annoying, drama queens, texting, socializing, etc. The teachers really don't do anything about...

  21. Nursing class Who's Who - for fun

    Tyler77 replied to DayDreamin ER CRNP's topic in General Students

    Mosrt likely to get slapped by a patient. Most likely to get divorced due to her "winning" attitude. Most likely to be gossiped about. Most likely to text during med-pass. Most likely to get fired on...

  22. I think my clinical professor hates me

    Tyler77 replied to bTRUE's topic in General Students

    I would have your anxiety order and depression under serious control before you go out there and become a nurse. P.S. There will ALWAYS be someone out there who challenges you, corrects you and may...

  23. Wronged by Clinical Instructor needing some closure.....

    Tyler77 replied to WantingtheBest's topic in General Students

    File a grievance with your Dean of Student Affairs (or Dean of Students). Make copies of supporting documents when you submit them. Once it crosses the chairperson's desk, they will be pretty much...

  24. Help dismissed from RNprogram

    Tyler77 replied to olliefos's topic in General Students

    Why is it that everyone in danger of failing a class seeks to use a "loophole" or "the balme game" when YOUR GRADES are YOUR responsibility. You know, I got a 90 on an exam once, and I have ulcerative...

  25. For Fun--Kudos 2 Me...The "toot your own horn" thread

    Tyler77 replied to tammy1974's topic in General Students

    Today in class some student was going on about her stellar GPA, her "job" she has planned out, her four adorable kids, her patients that love her, the nurses that she's corrected, and I told her to...
