Hey everyone, Just wondering if anyone out there has applied to early admission for fall 2010 to abington hospital dixon school of nursing?

When you walk on the floor and the lady who has slapped, scratched and punched you repeatedly for 3 days is still here and you are assigned her....again!!!! When you have said lady AND another pt who we need to call security for, cause she is also pu...

Hi I am the other person who made the dixon fb page. You make a group by starting at your own fb page. We reached only some of the people before class here on allnurses and at orientation we spread the word. Then I made flyers to hand out in class to...

I have to apologize, when I set it up and posted the problem it changed the way it was laid out. If you can't understand it (and it is confusing shown this way) let me know and I will re explain it in words. But for the most part, figure out what you...

I assume you mean 0.5g. This decimal is very important so make sure you are accurate in providing decimals. Ok so here goes the problem. The order reads:give 0.5g you place this in the problem first: 0.5g | | | | ...

In answer to: 1. I also had no immunization documentation, so I had titers done to "prove" my immunization status. Some came back low and I needed to update these. My school did not require me to get immunizations until after I was accepted. 2. I got...

For my first clinical experience I felt the same way, but our instructors assured us that we would not be doing anything that could hurt the patient in any way. We did baths, vitals, and bed changing. I actually enjoyed myself after I got over the f...

I agree with the LPN route and the reasoning why one should take that path, but in my area LPN's have all been laid off and cannot find jobs either. LPN's are not marketable here. For myself, still a student, I am going to school attached to a teachi...

My interview went something like this: Tell us about you, who are you and why do you want to be a nurse. Don't give the pat answer "cause I want to help people", they hear that all the time..think deeper of why nursing is of interest to you. Why this...

You know I am only in my first semester of NS. So far I have seen and dealt with a lot of poop and other body fluids. Somehow it doesn't bother me...I actually find joy in cleaning up those that cannot do it for themselves. So far I have had very n...

I am a student nurse and I am thankful for my family who support me when I have good days and bad days and remind me that I can do this and do it well. I am also so thankful for the people in my class. They are a fabulous bunch, each one of them, and...

Don't be so hard on yourself. You cannot change today, this day is over, pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and try again tomorrow by learning what went wrong today.

Congratulations!!! Yes there is alot to do. The fb page is dixon e/w 2012. That might be a better place to post questions and have them answered quickly. Hope to see you there!

Yes, I was stressed about the very same thing. However, I raised my kids and went back to school later in life....so I felt I was running out of time....and what if I didn't get into nursing school? I used this to my advantage. I kept reminding mys...

Remember, you are also setting a wonderful example for your son. He is growing up watching a strong woman better herself further. This is a wonderful thing for a child to witness....that their mother is a responsible, determined, hardworking and dr...

just approved you both...see ya there...

well i figured out how to create us a group page on facebook. maybe it will make it easier for us all to connect and share our ideas and questions. it is a little bland now, but it is up and running for us....here is the name of the group dson e/w 2...

My family dr. told me she originally had a black one and it lasted all of 3 days and it grew feet!!! Since it was black she couldn't identify any as hers, so she ordered and orange one and got it engraved. It never grew feet and walked away after th...

I'll set the facebook up and let you all know when I get it done!

I ordered my stethescope. I asked a few nurse friends and they all had the littman II classic. When I went for my physical, my dr had the littman II classic also and said that was a good one to get. She also had it in the orange color I was contem...

Hi Gina, I think you are the Gina in my micro class. If you are this is Joanne. Joey is my nickname. Let me know if you are not Gina s.

Mommi97, Don't worry about the technical math if you can't get it in. I looked the calculations book for n100 over and it really is not a hard concept to learn. It is a book about dimensional analysis, which is just a way to do a calculation. In the...

That was good test taking strategy advice. Thank you!!

You are right, we can't register for the N100 class until May 1st, but we are encouraged to register as soon as possible for the cpr class. They fill quickly. I was able to schedule my chart interview already, we didn't have to wait until May 1st to...
