  1. Manicure/pedicure/massage :)
  2. Nervousness has set in

    Hey! I have about 8 days until graduation, probably (hopefully) around 3 weeks after that to take NCLEX. After that, I start orientation in our ER (level 1, sees about 60,000+ year). I keep having...
  3. I got 75 questions

    I took my test Friday, cut off at 75. I'm dying! So far, everyone I talked to said "Oh, you did fine", but I just have this bad feeling about it. *sigh*
  4. Questionable practice

    I couldn't have put it better!!!
  5. I got 75 questions

    My understanding was that they processed exams on Tuesday and Thursday (that's what an instructor told us), but I'm not sure. It that's true, I'm freaking out for no reason right now! I think I've...
  6. Rocky Mount is not bad. It's fastly growing. I live an hour away in Greenville, home of University Health Systems ( http://www.uhseast.com ) and East Carolina University ( http://www.ecu.edu ). As...
  7. I got 75 questions

    Thanks. I took it in a different city. Had I waited until I could take it in my town, the earliest date was May 31st, which is the next start date at the hospital (and I really need a paycheck). I...
  8. I got 75 questions

    North Carolina only has the get-to-know early stuff for VISA students, I think. Not for me though (we already checked on that as soon as instructor mentioned it). Still no news. I just called and...
  9. Question about an accident

    I'm glad something positive has come out of this for you. While I was waiting to finish my pre-req's for nursing school, I decided to become an EMT. I had some basic knowledge, b/c I had volunteered...
  10. What do you all think????

    Agreed with the length/confusion. Also, why didn't you ask for help? Why didn't you complain to your nurse whenever the other CNA took a longer break than allowed? Also, getting smart and saying...
  11. Question about an accident

    First of all, I'm glad you weren't hurt in this accident. It's so terrifying to see a car so close to you go out of control, wondering if they might hit you. The shock of "Oh my God, that could have...
  12. Tattoo's on Nurses

    Exactly! You don't see any patient ripping off tattoo, do you? Rings on any sort are too easily removed, even if it means thru a way that wasn't there before (leaving you with two nice flaps of skin)....
  13. Anyone an RN-EMT?

    I had my EMT before I became went thru nursing school, but I am an EMT-B. As stated before, this doesn't mean much for flight nursing. Our flight folks are either RN's or RN-EMT-P. Medics need almost...
  14. Is anyone else (or has anyone) tried to plan a wedding while in nursing school? How did things go for you? I graduate in May, but fiance will not finish nursing school until next May. Our wedding is...
  15. Steven Johnsons Syndrome

    That's what I thought too. Any drug can cause this type of reaction, not just
  16. qod 5/11

    D. With a cleft palate, the infant will be swallowing a lot of air. Burping will relieve some of the discomfort from the air.
  17. Certified Medication Technician

    I also live in NC, and I do not think it is a good idea. I think the money they're planning on spending on it should be redirected towards training more nurse educators. I feel there is too much...
  18. Question about med control (volunteer)

    If you know it's a JCAHO thing, then I would suggest stick it out. If you work in a restaurant, the manager won't like it much if you quit the day you think the health inspector is going to come, then...
  19. SANE's in ER's?

    Are any of you a SANE (sexual assault nurse examiner)? If so, how soon after becoming an ER nurse did you choose to do this?
  20. Dating Patients

    And there are not emotionally and physically unstable people who aren't in the hospital? I'm not saying that everyone needs to go out and date their next client. It's nothing I would ever do, but I...
  21. Brown Discharge Question

    I see this was your first post? Are you a nurse, student, etc? Or are you trying to get medical information?
  22. Dating Patients

    I don't know if this aspect has been posted on yet or not, so sorry if it's a repeat (didn't want to read all 11 pages of stuff). If you choose to date a client, then that's your right (unless my BON...
  23. champagne enema

    Wish I had the money to throw away on champagne not only to drink but to stick up my butt...What a silly concept.
  24. During clinicals, in post-conference, my instructor would have us give report to other students (as a group), and then we were to decided who we would see first, second... Then explain why. That...
  25. wait time to take NCLEX second time

    Actually, my understanding was that no matter where you are, it's a minimum of 45 days. My instructor said it takes at least 60, usually. We just had a lecture yesterday where we went over the NCLEX...
