  1. Hanging onto an extremely thin line right now.

    morningland replied to nneokill175's topic in General Students

    I don't waste time reading the hudreads of text pages assigned to us. Instead, I record my lectures, take notes in class and then go home, re-listen to the lecture, re-fine my notes and then drill...

  2. Nursing school double standards?

    morningland replied to Risgirl's topic in General Students

    I understand your frusteration but you should NOT be working full time in nursing school. My school doesn't want you to work more then 16 hrs a week... so the people who say "I work 40hrs a week and...

    morningland replied to AwesomeNiks's topic in General Students

    My patient has end stage cirrosis due to long term drinking. My instructor told me that that her hematoma may be related to her disease because of something to do with the blood cappilaries. Can you...

    morningland replied to ZenStudent's topic in General Students

    morningland replied to O'Ryan's topic in General Students

    I am going to a 2-yr community college to get my RN and then my school helps me transfer over to a university to get my BSN. It's actually a better education for me (my CC offers WAY more clinical...

  10. Help with Nursing Diagnosis please

    morningland replied to hero3679's topic in General Students

    I don't think you can use c-section or aneurism because they are are medical terms. Also, fear over c-section can be a diagnosis because it is a natural thing to be afraid of surgery so it doesn't...

  11. As a nursing student, will I be prodded to become Prochoice?

    morningland replied to avidhunter3's topic in General Students

    I am pro-life. I don't believe that anyone has any right over a life because it belongs to itself. With that being said, no one can force their beliefs on you especially in nursing school. You just...

  18. Nursing Diagnosis help

    morningland replied to allenichick's topic in General Students

    Your diagnosis needs at least 1-2 more AEB. No nursing diagnosis can be based on one. Your fear diagnosis may been the patients expression of fear in the AEB to make it more

  19. STILL don't have a job?? Vent here!

    morningland replied to wonderwomanchels's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I think this is why people need to be aware of the big myth that nursing basically guarantees jobs... the economy is hit hard in all areas of our society. This is just my humble opinion and no...

  20. New Member! Question about new grads getting jobs!!

    morningland replied to xnurse2bx's topic in General Students

    yeah, the idea that nursing will offer for sure jobs is a big myth. I am first semester as well and in my area, Detroit, it is very hard to get a job. I think you need to be very flexable to move...

  21. dumb and stuttering nurse

    morningland replied to jessi11's topic in General Students

    I don't think stuttering would be a problem. As far as being dumb, anyone who has an RN after their name and made it through the nursing program is not dumb. Being smart has little to do with...

  23. is it possible to pass med surg or should I just quit

    morningland replied to drgodfather's topic in General Students

    40/50 and 80/100.... that is TOTALLY possable. Don't give up unless God audibly tells you to or you are forced to quit by the school. Stick with it, that is a very attainable goal. If it were 48/50...

  25. Useless extra credit ....

    morningland posted a topic in General Students

    My nursing program offers extra credit but it seems quite useless. It only effects your grade after you pass all of your exams with an 80% or higher... anything below that is failing. So I wonder...
