   So who has orientation on Monday at 8 in room 214?? I want to know who to look for so I don't have to sit solo!

2. Situation on the road today - help me learn from it?

   AnneMarie replied to Nurse SMS's topic in General Nursing

   Wow, can you really not call the cops for an impaired driver at the risk of them filing a slander suit? I didn't realize the driver would even be able to get your name from the authorities---and if you witnessed them driving erratically (as the OP di...

   Break has been great---Just got back from Disney! I'm excited for summer classes, but nervous too--I just don't know what to expect. I just wish I knew what hospital I was going to---I wonder when they'll tell us. Is anyone else waiting to know their...

   At least most of us will be at school for lecture at the same time---maybe we will see each other at breaks sometimes?? MistyMiss, excited that you and I might finally have class together! PM me and let me know which instructor is listed for your cli...

   I hate that I haven't had any of you in class, but it looks like I will for summer, so that's great! Hooray for OB/Peds! This semester has been fabulous but I'm SOOOO glad it's almost over. Now I just have to study for a million hours for my finals (...

7. pre-nursing mom of 3 needs advice

   AnneMarie replied to Lgoodson614's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I have a 3-year-old and I'm in nursing school and working part-time as a Realtor. Sometimes it's tough because I have to spend an evening studying for an exam rather than spending time with my family, but it's really not as crazy as I thought it woul...

8. Ivy Tech 'Fall 2010' Applicants

   AnneMarie replied to Emmi7's topic in Indiana

   Based on the limited class/clinical availability in these programs, I would guess that if you had already started classes here and then moved, you would have to wait for a spot to open up at the other campus in order to stay in the program. Otherwise...

   I'm re-living this whole waiting game watching your forum now! I'm in the program at Ivy Tech Lawrence (with Csab) and I went through the same nail-biting that you guys are going through now! You'll have those letters before you know it! I'm sure you...

    Geez, I just looked on here and nobody has posted since the middle of March! I guess it's a true testament to how busy we all are! Good luck to everyone on your catheter competency if you haven't had it already. I passed and couldn't believe it---the...

    I'm jealous of everyone because I don't even know my schedule yet! haha! I think I got it early last time, so maybe it's a trade-off and I'm one of the last people to be registered this time. Oh well, more time for me to pray for OB/Peds! It's defini...

    Yep, those were my drugs....I heard those a lot, so I think all of the stations had those two. Of course, they could always switch it up for another group--just to keep us on our toes!

13. switching to 3rd shift

    AnneMarie replied to 1stTimeNurse's topic in General Nursing

    Congrats on your job!! 3rd shift will probably be tough to start, but your body will adjust. My friend works nights and she said that she sleeps with an eye mask and a fan during the day to "trick" her body into thinking it's night time. You will be ...

    Had my PO meds competency today...went fine. I wish I didn't get so freakin' nervous before these things! I swear my hands were shaking so bad that I thought I was going to pour Phenobarb all over my patient! Hopefully as we do them more and more, th...

    AnneMarie replied to csab's topic in Indiana

    Amen! That's what we're all here for, right?! Definitely makes me feel better to know that so many other people are questioning their decision to even be in this program---Obviously it's a rash decision to be making, but that's what happens when you ...
