  2. What does your username mean?

    whatwasithinkinglol replied to LifesAJourney's topic in Nursing Humor

    I think mine speaks for itself... it's what I say to myself every morning after 3 hours sleep from studying and kids, while attending full time LPN

  3. Medical shows...

    whatwasithinkinglol replied to Jenni811's topic in Nursing Humor

    I love the new Off The Map on ABC. It's like the MacGuyver of the med field! lol The clinic gets robbed of all meds and they have to do a surgery, so the doc (who happens to be an exaddict) goes...

  4. Got the call!!!

    whatwasithinkinglol replied to Busymom2day's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I'm a stay at home mom too for 10+ years (used to be!) and going through night classes for my LPN. I have 3 kids at home. I won't kid you, it's freaking hard!!! lol Accept the fact that your...

  5. Bathing Patients..thought only CNAs do that?

    whatwasithinkinglol replied to Sheller86's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I'm a former CNA and LPN student. The personal care does take some getting used to, but it really does become an act of compassion. Being kind to a patient during the process is once of the nicest...

  6. Daytona State LPN Program

    whatwasithinkinglol replied to beachgirl11's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I'm currently attending the night class in Deland and LOVE it. It is ALOT of work. 50+ hours a week of clinicals, lab and bookwork. Our instructor has a super pass rate for the state boards, and...

  7. Should second-hand smoke be illegal in a home with children?

    whatwasithinkinglol replied to starzrn's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think anyone is purposely smoker bashing OR saying someone who smokes is a bad parent AT ALL. But if you subject your kid to second hand smoke, I DO see it as a crime. That's the same as...

  8. Question about CHF

    whatwasithinkinglol replied to Ginger80's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    I would notify the MD. Checking her weight and vitals is helpful too. Although I'm a student LPN, my mother just had a major CHF episode a month ago and almost had to be intubated due to congestion...

    whatwasithinkinglol replied to starzrn's topic in General Nursing

    YES YES YES it should be illegal!!!!!! I smoke. My husband smokes. Would I trap my child in a house full of smoke, knowing I must quit, that it is harmful to my health, knowing that CHF and COPD...

  10. I don't want to give up, but....

    whatwasithinkinglol posted a topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I graduated almost a year ago. I worked for 4 months in home health for a horrid racist mean woman who threatened to throw things at me. She'd call me all hours of the day and night, told me she...

  11. I don't want to give up, but....

    whatwasithinkinglol replied to whatwasithinkinglol's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    So, that's my next question! How do you find a job when you were grateful enough to have been given a chance and failed? I'm risking their health, and my back! To be told "things are different on...

  12. Tempers, bullies, and self created chaos!!

    whatwasithinkinglol replied to squirly's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Squirely, I love it when there is chaos and I'm an innocent bystander! LOL I wondered what the program will be like. I did the CNA and it was pretty amusing at times. The late people, the...

  13. New LPN students, roll call, Jan 2011, 12 month program!

    whatwasithinkinglol replied to dmy222's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Starting mine in Jan at Daytona State/UCF. Taking online coursework, and clinicals in Deland on the evening shift. So excited! Need to get cracking on the doc visit and background check though!...

  14. first time working third shift!

    whatwasithinkinglol replied to ashleyisawesome's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Lots of coffee, eat light and find things to do! Read the nursing books, ask questions, clean up areas that aren't necessarily your responsibility. Keeping busy helps with the "mind over matter" of...

  15. Anyone going beyond their CNA license??

    whatwasithinkinglol replied to sunflower777's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I'm taking my CNA while I await the application period for RN or LPN at our local state college. Our clinicals start next week! Eeeek! Considering applying to the surgical tech program too, or...

    whatwasithinkinglol replied to Domina's topic in Florida Nursing

    what hospital? are you a graduate that was refused employment? not trying to give you a hard time, but I've just committed the next 2 - 3 years of my life to studies and working around the clock....

    whatwasithinkinglol replied to Domina's topic in Florida Nursing

    @ post #10, Why do you say Daytona is substandard? That is the second post of yours, which provides no detail. Anway, congrats on your acceptance ladies! How are things going? Tons of homework?...
