   Guttercat, I did numerous searches but couldn't find an answer. I don't know why I didn't bother to search the dialysis forum lol. Thanks for the info!

2. Dialysis to other areas

   mkhoaja posted a topic in Urology

   Hello all, I am a recent graduate, and of course as we all know it's tough to find a job. I have an interview with a Dialysis center, and while it's not my first choice, it's a paycheck. My ideal situation would be in a hospital in Med-Surg where I ...

   mkhoaja replied to sunshyn_42's topic in Texas

   I know how all of you feel. I am graduating this semester, but when I applied back in 09, it took them forever to reply to all of us. I wish all of you the best of luck, and if you ever need advice, don't hesitate to ask.

4. Some advice for a new Student Nurse!!!!

   mkhoaja replied to PatMac10,RN's topic in General Students

   Congartulations on getting in. The best advice I received was from my foundations teacher, when she said to mass email all your family and friends, and tell them that your taking a vacation for 2 years and not to contact you directly, you will conta...

7. Am I too young?

   mkhoaja replied to mariemac89LPN's topic in General Nursing

   Your only too young if you think you are. Life is usually a state of mind, and you have to truly believe in yourself and your abilities. You cannot let other people dictate how you want to live your life. Good Luck! :)

8. can you make it all the way through nursing school on dishonesty alone?

   mkhoaja replied to Desire2Learn's topic in General Students

   Yeah I know what you mean because our teachers are watching us like vultures circling their prey. Not to mention we usually have 4 different versions of the test to begin with. There is no way that anyone could cheat at my school. Also, yes cheating ...

9. Exam Stories

   mkhoaja posted a topic in General Students

   I had a heart stopping experience recently, which is really funny now that its over, so I thought it would be fun if we all shared some funny/dumb stories. I was taking my exam, and inadvertently left my cell phone on the table next to me. I was so ...

11. Stop being so miserable

    mkhoaja replied to mkhoaja's topic in Safety

    For the record, I am a male student nurse. Having gotten that out of the way, I think I am going to end my post here. I have to say that it has been rather eye opening to say the least. I started a post thinking I was going to be enlightened and hop...

12. Stop being so miserable

    mkhoaja replied to mkhoaja's topic in Safety

    Thank you carolmacca66 for seeing my main point. Nursing most definitely is unlike any other profession. My first clinical day, there was a family who was coming from the ICU to a room so their grandmother (going off life support) could be around he...

    mkhoaja replied to mkhoaja's topic in Safety

    No, I dont know everything because I am a nursing student. (I hope you picked up the sarcasm)

14. Stop being so miserable

    mkhoaja replied to mkhoaja's topic in Safety

    Where did I make a judgement about any nurse? I am simply venting my observations. If i came across as being judgemental, then please accept my apologies. Like I have said previously, I understand where the pressure comes from, I just dont see that a...

    Are you nuts? That doctor who put a hole in her esophagus wasnt allowed anywhere near my mom because she tried to get out of bed and hit him LOLLLLL. (im glad we can laugh about it now) How would you feel if a doc put a hole in your esophagus? And b...
