    Allergic to the delivery room?

    itsnowornever replied to itsnowornever's topic in Ob/Gyn

    So I went to urgent care and the doctor there told me that NOPE it's not pink eye...zero possibility (I was hoping it was!) So I explained what happens when I walk into the delivery room and that I...

    Student Loans to finance my CC tuition, basic living expenses all the way through BSN

    itsnowornever replied to ccstudentpsychnurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think this is unfair also. You dont know what she/he has to deal with. If someone told me that, I'd more than likely cuss them out. Living with my mother was a living nightmare, and in all reality,...

    Exactly this. I live about 30 miles from you and just graduated with my BSN in August. I lucked out and was working by October, but I"m also not that young and this was a second career, which IMO I...

    itsnowornever replied to itsnowornever's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I so hope I do!!!! Probably not here though. I am hugely in favor of minimal meds and letting mom do her thing (after all we've done it since the beginning of time) but I think they hurry our patients...

    itsnowornever replied to miNmyBay's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I think they were giving you hard facts. Took me 18 days after getting licensed to find my first job and the second came 10 days after that. I had military experience and that's what they said helped...

    Help deciding between new grad jobs!

    itsnowornever replied to shadowness's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I don't buy into the "med surg before specialty" stuff. Med surg itself is a specialty really, so where are we supposed to start?!?!? One person in particular praises her 9 months med surg experience...

    I see two attempts, one lateral and one medial. I asked hubby who has experience with users and because he can't see more he's slow to say user. He says it looks like someone grabbed the person in...

    We do triage all day, our ratios are supposed to be 2:1 but can often get up to 4:1. They paid for a basic FHR class which is INVALUABLE I recommend going to one! Also get your NRP it calms you down...
