    Also, that H4CK looks like a play on the word

    CNA job scam? Please help

    CrazierThanYou replied to magalipastor60's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I think you mean "dog eat dog" world... To the OP: Yes, this is definitely a scam. ANY TIME the words "Western Union" are used, RUN. When you send money via Western Union, someone picks it up and its...

    Nervous about NCLEX... ADVISE PLEASE

    CrazierThanYou replied to mmel025's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Hi, I took NCLEX last month. I used the Hurst Review book, Kaplan book, Saunder's CD, NCSBN and some other randomness. In my opinion, the NCSBN questions were most similar to NCLEX. Just like them, in...

    What are your thoughts on patients who request no male nurses taking care of them?

    CrazierThanYou replied to Mike A. Fungin RN's topic in Men in Nursing

    Most WHAT are gay? I hope you aren't insinuating that most male nurses are gay because that is flat out ridiculous. I know many, MANY male nurses and none of them are

    Do I need 2 stethoscopes?

    CrazierThanYou replied to meghan91's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Our school is just the opposite. They recommended we get a good one: Littmann or a something of similar quality. Everyone in my class had a Littmann, a couple people had an MDF. One person had a...

    What are your thoughts on patients who request no male nurses taking care of them?

    CrazierThanYou replied to Mike A. Fungin RN's topic in Men in Nursing

    I think it should be accommodated. I agree with the poster who said something about them being uncomfortable and less likely to divulge information. I used to go to a doctor's office who often (nearly...

    Do I need 2 stethoscopes?

    CrazierThanYou replied to meghan91's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    No, I don't see a need for 2. I used my Littmann in clinical and yes, I left it in the car between uses. Also, why would a Littmann be a too much for CNA

    What do you do in lab for A&P?

    CrazierThanYou replied to sckooshy1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    To call that portion of my A&P class a "lab" is a bit of a farce. We entered the lab exactly 3 times. We looked at a drop of our blood under the scope, put urine in a centrefuge, and dissected a...

    NCLEX passing rates

    CrazierThanYou replied to DisneyNurseGal's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I took NCLEX at the beginning of this month. I did not take a high dollar "prep course" to help me pass. I think it's ridiculous that we spend 2-4 years in nursing school only to be told that we much...

    Nursing Program Rumors

    CrazierThanYou replied to buttons93's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes, people should check with their OWN schools to get information because they're all different. However, some of the things you mention above are indeed in existence at some schools. Only CNAs are...

    Heres what I don't get about hiring

    CrazierThanYou replied to esunada's topic in First Year After Licensure

    That's life. If its like the area I live in, nepotism is HUGE here. You know someone, related to someone, neighbors with someone? You're hired, no matter how sorry you are. I just graduated from...

    "No nurses of color....."

    CrazierThanYou replied to Queen2u's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I agree with the last two posts. I don't think I would want to take care of someone who didn't want me taking care of

    Just took nclex today and I feel cheated

    CrazierThanYou replied to Sejl90's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Hmmm, I didn't really find NCLEX to be obscure at all. I had one medication I'd never heard of and that's it. All the rest was stuff I either learned in nursing school or I knew from all the practice...

    My review log for NCLEX-RN exam.

    CrazierThanYou replied to missnoc360's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I took NCLEX a week ago tomorrow. I used Saunder's CD (about 2000 questions from it), the Kaplan book (not class), the Lacharity book, a little bit of the NCSBN questions, and a few Pearson questions....

    Which Covenant facility do you work at? I am a new grad and I just applied there

    I'm going to NS, why has your attitude changed toward me???

    CrazierThanYou replied to niqua8604's topic in General Students

    Yep, just jealous haters. When I was in school, I worked for a company that was great about working with me on my school schedule. I worked part time and odd hours. Other employees always made snide...

    Grady Hiring Process

    CrazierThanYou replied to GaMommy81's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Hi guys, I am planning to apply at Grady as well. Are new grad positions specified on their website or can we just apply for the ones that don't say anything about experience?

    IV start in Assisted Living Facility

    I work in a small assisted living facility (6 residents). There are 3 CNA's and the administrator. The administrator was a CNA years ago doesn't have her certification anymore. Here is my question:...

    Mission vs. Park Ridge

    CrazierThanYou replied to bladingator's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    I'm not sure about this particular position but I first applied May 1st because that's when they said new grads could start

    Mission vs. Park Ridge

    CrazierThanYou replied to bladingator's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    I am also a new grad. I have applied at both Mission and Park Ridge. I haven't gotten a call from PR but I have an interview at Mission in a few weeks. I'm nervous about it but I guess the best thing...

    Pearson Vue still says "Ready for Delivery" 2 days later... HELP!

    CrazierThanYou replied to lizzie223's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    That's odd. I took NCLEX yesterday and by the time I got home, I was able to do the PVT. We didn't have any computer issues that I know of at the testing site, either, though. Good luck! I'd be...
