    Weird question about poo....

    lrobinson5 replied to girlswcurls's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I feel that I can do any task with gloves on. I don't know... something about the extra barrier is really comforting to me. Also, clean it ASAP. Nothing is worse than helping a patient that has been...

    WHY do nurses apologize for doing their jobs?

    lrobinson5 replied to rntj's topic in General Nursing

    This is something that is programmed into any polite citizen. I go to the store, can't find an item? "I'm sorry to bother you, but can you help me find ____?" This happens about a million times a...

    I got a JOB!

    lrobinson5 replied to karamarie91's topic in Patient Care Technician, Assistants

    I think I am more worried about hearing a bed alarm when you are helping someone to the bathroom. You're hands are very tied but someone is also at risk for a fall. Also, how many patients are you...

    All this talk got me to thinking, do they give you a rundown of certain "What-if" situations that might come up. Like what you were talking about, everyone needing you at the same time. Do they help...

    What is your clinical makeup routine :)

    lrobinson5 replied to loveoutloud's topic in General Students

    I agree with Grn Tea. I never wear makeup unless there is something special going on, like an interview. I don't have much money either and my money is better off elsewhere. Also, I find that makeup...

    Newbie trying to decide if I should go to private or community school

    lrobinson5 replied to J.Juarez's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would go to a public university before a 4-year private university. Is there another community college program in your area? Do they have a program that is just for your ADN and doesn't make you...

    lrobinson5 replied to iNurs's topic in California Nursing

    lrobinson5 replied to iNurs's topic in California Nursing

    I go to a community college and they definitely will keep the money if you fail or drop after a month of school. Of course, that would mean you are out maybe $100, as opposed to several
