  1. What do you think about the use of Cytotec?

    ayndim replied to CardioTrans's topic in Ob/Gyn

    http://www.fda.gov/cder/foi/label/2002/19268slr037.pdf This statement is only from 1 year before the previous one I posted. What happened? Does anyone know if there were any controlled safety...

  2. What do you think about the use of Cytotec?

    ayndim replied to CardioTrans's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I thought that the FDA still does not approve its use (nor its manufacturer). Has there been a change and I am reading older info. Still don't like it. Honestly, if you (or your wife for the guys)...

  3. What do you think about the use of Cytotec?

    ayndim replied to CardioTrans's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I thought this thread must be a joke! I cannot believe anyone uses cytotec for inductions. I am only a nursing student so I am not to sure how common it is but I do know the risks and the fact it is...

  4. unprofessional behavior in RN community

    ayndim replied to miphillli's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    I think it should not be used by anyone at work. But if it is just a room full of men outside work, I am pretty sure there is some cursing going on. Completely politically incorrect but yes it does...

  5. unprofessional behavior in RN community

    ayndim replied to miphillli's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    I wonder if they would talk that way in front of their parents. I am 33 next month and if I cursed in front of my dad he would still try to wash my mouth out with soap. :uhoh21: Hate to sound...

  6. need advice about L&D nursing

    ayndim replied to emt89115's topic in Nursing Career

    I know my MW practice doesn't do episiotomies routinely, it would be a very rare occasion for internal monitors. And unless there is a problems (or epidural or other meds) they only use intermittent...

  7. Mommies of pre-schoolers, need your advice

    ayndim replied to WickedRedRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am a little different situation because I am a SAHM. But it is still hard for mine. Mine seem to be happy playing in the background while I study. Yeah right. I have a teenager come in for 4...

  8. Future CNMs

    ayndim replied to ayndim's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Sounds good. I will start emailing tonight. Today I have to clean the house.

  9. Can you be allergic to alcohol??

    ayndim replied to weetziebat's topic in General Nursing

    just a guess but couldn't your face be turning red from the blood vessels dialating. i know i looked flushed and feel it too when i am drinking. as for the pounding, some red wines give me migraines...

  10. Future CNMs

    ayndim replied to ayndim's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    I am only interested in master's but I thought we could assemble the info and post it as a sticky (not sure how to do that). Then it would be there for future

  11. Pre LPN OR RN ? Have chance at both.

    ayndim replied to nurse2bhopefully's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I think LPN's earn alot less than that. The jobs I have seen, that aren't agency, are paying about 13-15/hr. I looked into because I thought about taking the LPN test and working as one while I...

  12. Future CNMs

    ayndim replied to ayndim's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Okay I have done my bio final and just have chem left for the semester (Yippee) so has anyone done the letter? How do you want to divy it up? Maybe something along the lines of. Dear Sir or Madam: I...

  13. Medication Aides

    ayndim replied to R.L.Silva's topic in General Nursing

    Med aids, cma's and cna's are a far cry from being "basically the same as an LPN" I can't figure out if you are trying to stir up trouble or if you actually believe this. I am telling you this, no...

  14. Medication Aides

    ayndim replied to R.L.Silva's topic in General Nursing

    First off the training a Corpsman or EMT in the military is nothing like that of a CNA. Military training is to the LPN level -- at least. But until they are an LPN or an RN they still are not a...

  15. Nurses that give bottles to breastfeeding babies.

    ayndim replied to at your cervix's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Doesn't your hosptial room in? And it isn't an option. Not that I would have it any other way but my friend had a section and asked the nurses to take the baby to the nursery so she could rest. The...

  16. LPN duties in the acute care setting

    ayndim replied to bloomer's topic in General Nursing

    The first year of my program is the LPN portion and then you can exit or continue on to an RN. So LPN's must also pass med admin with 100%

  17. LPN duties in the acute care setting

    ayndim replied to bloomer's topic in General Nursing

    It is my understanding that the additional year for RN already includes the IV class. Am I wrong? I know at my school we must pass a med admin test with 100% every

  18. A house link for those wanting to come to AZ

    ayndim posted a topic in Arizona Nursing

    http://www.uis.net/ This is a search engine for the new houses in AZ. If you see one you like you can contact a realtor to find out more information. I believe you can request a realtor call you too...

  19. NEED ADVICE-starting pre-req's at Gateway!!

    ayndim replied to taapple's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I was told that you will most likely get in for the semester you apply. Although it may not be to the college of your first choice. And it is first come, first serve if your prereqs are done. I...

  20. unacceptable abbreviations - compliance problems

    ayndim replied to luvbug9956's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks for clarifying. Makes me happier about taking chem over the summer. :chuckle Really I know that there must be other reasons we need chem

  21. unacceptable abbreviations - compliance problems

    ayndim replied to luvbug9956's topic in General Nursing

    Why on earth did we take chemistry then? I am still a student but I thought one reason we took it was so that we would recognize those

  22. NEED ADVICE-starting pre-req's at Gateway!!

    ayndim replied to taapple's topic in Arizona Nursing

    The red cross is expensive ($608) but you don't have to complete the HCC classes first. I wasn't going to take out loans but I think I may take out enough to cover the class. Plus it is only 3 weeks...

  23. Just a note on the NP vs PA debate...

    ayndim replied to TMnurse's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    What is the big beef between NP's and PA's. Although the training is different surely both have the same level of competency. So what if PA's have to workwith a Dr. Any NP I have seen works with a...

  24. I need some suggestions

    ayndim replied to nursestudentin05's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with baby catcher. Soon who will deliver our babies. Also our c-section rate is too high. And we rank 40th or so in infant

    ayndim replied to taapple's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I sit in NO class. I am doing mine online at Rio. It is great. Hoping to get in there nursing program. You can also accelerate your classes. My big debate is whether to apply to gwc in Jan or wait...
