  1. I have NOTHING to do

    caffeineRx posted a topic in General Nursing

    LOL, ok that's not true. But last week, there was a night where I didn't have anything to do. I purposely found out what was due, a week in advance, and finished it all. So when the time came rolling...

  2. Survey: Should nurses from other countries be recruited to aid in the nursing shortag

    caffeineRx replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

    Absolutely not. At least not until EVERY single one of our citizens (who are nurses) have filled a position. But then we wouldn't need foreign nurses, if this were the case. I don't have a problem...

  6. I have NOTHING to do

    caffeineRx replied to caffeineRx's topic in General Nursing

    LOL unfortunately I am one of those people who cannot nap during the day. Even if I am able to, and do so, I will be up ALL night. It throws off my sleep. I am starting to learn how to keep myself in...

  7. The Monster: Med/Surg

    caffeineRx replied to caffeineRx's topic in General Nursing

    Critical thinking..the one thing I dread. I enjoy things, such as math, that are objective. My lowest grade is in our Nursing Arts & Skills class. I'm hanging on with a B. Everything else- I have...

    caffeineRx replied to caffeineRx's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks you guys! Seriously, if you didn't inform me that certain things are the same..I wouldn't have known, as the book does not specify. I just felt a book would be REALLY clear......guess not. I...

    caffeineRx replied to caffeineRx's topic in General Nursing

    Oh thanks. That helps Thank You. I'm going to try to do as much as I can understand from here..hopefully I can finish them. I think my brain is being abused

  14. Drug Flash Cards driving me insane...

    caffeineRx replied to caffeineRx's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, I can. The only thing that confuses me is that all of this stuff is on the same page. And instead of listing an action for each one..there is only one action. I'm assuming they all provide the...

    caffeineRx replied to caffeineRx's topic in General Nursing

    caffeineRx replied to caffeineRx's topic in General Nursing

    Uhm I have actually known what would be on the practical for 5 days. So yep, believe it or not, it's not all me lol. My college is a HOT mess. If nursing programs were not so hard to get into, I would...

  20. Time-sensitive! : Suggestions for AP Flashcards

    caffeineRx replied to caffeineRx's topic in General Nursing

    LOL, you're right...they don't go together at all. I was really tired and about ready to pass out. I seem to be saying things that don't make sense more and more as time goes

  21. Time-sensitive! : Suggestions for AP Flashcards

    caffeineRx replied to caffeineRx's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks a lot, but notecards are not practical for me to learn the skeletal system. I don't just have to learn all the bones, they want us to learn notches, angles, superior, inferior, lateral, coronal...
