  1. How many of you had to repeat a semester

    I am going to have to repeat a semester also. I am sorry that you are going through this. Its hard to study and do everything that you can do and then you take the tests and fail. I know exactly how you feel and I'll pray for you as I am praying for...
  2. To everyone on All Nurses

    Its been great talking to you all, but I may not be on anymore. I am in my second semester and I may fail one class this semester, Med- surg. I have been trying so hard to pass and its down to the wire. I have 1 test and the final left. I can pass if...
  3. To everyone on All Nurses

    I did that today. The group that is at same site as me helped me today. They said that they are not going to let me fail. We had a group today, gonna have one tomorrow, one on next Tuesday and Wednesday. I actually remembered a lot of stuff. It was n...

  5. HEP B Vaccine

    At our health dept. it is $65 per shot...
  6. I became a CNA today!!!!!!

    After your first semester in nursing school you are a CNA1. So it might be better to wait if you can't afford it. After semester 2 you are a CNA2, at least in NC.
  7. Med Tech or CNA

    I think all med techs can do is give meds, not sure about Charlotte,but here you only give meds. At least thats what I have been told by people in LTC.
  8. Med Tech or CNA

    Depends on where in NC you are. I am in Shelby and if you have a CNA license you can be a med tech also, but If you only have med tech thats all you can do. Besides CNA1 only takes 5 weeks at the CC.
  9. do you call this harassing someone?

    I don't think she has a leg to stand on. Just document what she is doing. She is just saying that to scare you into letting it go. Writing her up one time is nowhere near harassment especially if it was justified. Stick to your guns, you are her boss...
  10. Good nights sleep, breakfast in the morning and keep track of your time. Don't stress if you cant figure something out go to the next question.
  11. 3 yr. old son not talking much-is this normal?

    my daughter will be 3 in Oct. we discussed this very same thing with her doc a few visits ago. She told us to start making her say what she wanted instead of grunting and pointing.We were also to allow her to be near other kids for example at the par...
  12. health insurance while in school

    Where in NC are you? I have to pay for mine out of pocket. What school are you at?
  13. Test Frustration

    She says she is willing, but is hardly in her office. When you do go you cant bring anything in with you and you can't copy anything. We tried to get her to let us spend time reviewing it also before final and she just makes excuses. Everyone thinks ...
  14. Test Frustration

    This happened to me last semester but I did bring my grade up to pass, but I don't wanna just get by. I want to do really good in class. I feel like I would be a lot better student if I could do better on my tests. I am fine in clinicaL , i guess b/c...
  15. Test Frustration

    This has happened to me also. I don't know what it is but I study and it doesn't make a difference when test time comes around. Does anyone have any suggestions that could possibly help us?
  16. Curious. How many "older" students

    I am going to be 29 on the 9th of March. I have 2 kids( 5 and 2). I am in the second semester of an ADN program. I would like to get my BSN after I finish this. I already have a BS in Child Development and Family Realtions. After being out of school ...
  17. Passed My First Return!!!

    Same here. They still make me a little nervous. I just did the IV checkoff and I have no medical experience at all. Thats what makes me really nervous. Good luck on your future returns.
  18. how hard is it

    I have a friend who does weekends 3- 12 hour shifts, gets paid for 40 hours . She gets to put her daughter on the bus and be there when she gets home. I think that allows her time to be a great mom and also let her daughter spend time on weekends wit...
  19. mature students vs. young student nurses

    So where do I fall in this thread. I am neither 30 yet nor am I fresh out of high school. I think I am mature, but sometimes you need at least a little immaturity to get through the day. I am 28( will be 29 in 2 weeks), already have a BS degree in CD...
  20. Breast impants..again..

    My question is this- Is a lift considered the same as implanting. I was thinking of implants also but all I think that I really need is a lift. I agree with the person who said talk to your family and research the surgeon. I happen to have a husband...
  21. Nursing/CNA Experience

    I am not a CNA, but it helps that some of my classmates are. They are a wonderful help and don't mind taking some time to help me through things.Some of my instructors like people with no experience because they dont have to break us of some the habi...
  22. Fellow student threatened my life today..! LONG

    I just read your post and it really upset me. You need to contact the police now. If nothing else those in authoritative positions will know what he has been up to. I was followed home by someone that I didn't know before. Make sure you notice your s...
  23. Reference cards for Spanish phrases

    After seeing your post I began to look on yahoo for this. On amazon.com there is a book entitled "Speedy Spanish for Nurses". I'm still looking for more because I think this would be helpful to us all.
  24. BSN's deliver safer care than ADN's??

    As said by imagin916 In response to this, I have seen MANY ADN programs have thier classes lined up something like this: Nursing 101-104, with no seperate pharm, or community health, nutrition, ect. Thier med surg classes are usually combined with s...
  25. Venting about Grants, Financial Aid, etc.

    I think there are several things in this thread that bother me. First off I am upset that you served your country and they won't pay for your school. I do however, take offense at the thinking that the African Americans are getting the "free ride". ...
