    Rate your professors!!!

    CrazierThanYou replied to RangeinPlace's topic in General Students

    Um, yeah. There is an instructor at my school. If you were to look this person up on that website, you will see glowing reviews of her. She is one of those kind of people who are constantly smiling...

    early reading

    CrazierThanYou replied to mistyvenne's topic in General Students

    We definitely skipped all over. Our reading assignments might go like this: Ch. 2, 78, 5, 6, 34 21, along with certain page numbers out of 10 other chapters and then some chapters out of another

    No papers

    CrazierThanYou replied to bloodlikefire's topic in General Students

    We were told on day one that our state BON doesn't allow nursing students' grades to be 'padded' with things like paper and extra credit. I guess they can assign them if they so choose to but so far...

    Credit check - so worried all of the sudden.

    CrazierThanYou replied to ErinRN2B's topic in General Students

    sorry, but that is one sanctimonious load of horse crap. having bad credit does not make one a bad person, contrary to what that idiot suze orman says. i have horrible credit because while i was...

    Best Review/Study Guide for MED-SURG?

    CrazierThanYou replied to SN:CPC727's topic in General Students

    That is a great book but I don't think it would be helpful for med-surg. I found it to be very helpful in fundamentals. We were required to buy Med Surg Reviews and Rationales. What I saw of it seemed...

    Best Drug Calculations Book

    CrazierThanYou replied to tag2007's topic in General Students

    I've heard good things about Calculate with Confidence but I HATE the above book! The only word I can use to describe it is 'useless'. We were required to get Math for Meds. I think it was a pretty...

    CrazierThanYou replied to cccormier's topic in General Students

    I'm beginning my senior year on Monday and believe me, I have moments when I ask myself if I have learned anything at all. I wonder if I'll know what to do in a hospital setting in a certain...

    Senior year!!

    CrazierThanYou replied to morningdew's topic in General Students

    I start my second year this Monday and I am totally dreading it. My school does things differently. We went to our home school for the first year but when second year rolls around, we have to go to...

    pet peeves when nursing students arrive

    CrazierThanYou replied to sandanrnstudent's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks. Its sort of funny now, looking back on it. I wish she could see how ridiculous she looked. The bad thing was, we couldn't get away from her! Everywhere we went, there she was! One day, I was...

    early reading

    CrazierThanYou replied to mistyvenne's topic in General Students

    Yes it is overkill. You have no idea what your instructor is going to ask you to read. We skipped all over the book and changed from book to book. It wasn't like a start reading it at the beginning...

    pet peeves when nursing students arrive

    CrazierThanYou replied to sandanrnstudent's topic in General Nursing

    Yes! This! I've encountered a lot of indifferent nurses but only one who might be called mean. She was just nasty all the way around. I was standing at the med counter preparing to give some IV...

    NO LUNCH? NO BREAKS? Is that common in nursing?

    Not allowed to SIT during 12 hour shift and MORE

    CrazierThanYou replied to katieusa's topic in Medical-Surgical

    At our local hospital, the CNAs aren't allowed to sit down except during their lunch break. There are computers on the halls for charting and they're placed at standing level. 12 hours is a long time...

    Not allowed to SIT during 12 hour shift and MORE

    CrazierThanYou replied to katieusa's topic in Medical-Surgical

    What a crock. I'm a second year nursing student and I just can't imagine not being able to sit down for an entire 12 hours!

    What have other nurses done that have freaked you out?

    CrazierThanYou replied to texas_lvn's topic in General Nursing

    I've heard a lot of the "capping with the teeth" stories. I'd probably stab myself in the lips! I used to work in a LTC facility. One of the nurses was so lazy, she would sit at the nurses station...

    CrazierThanYou replied to forgop's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    It has been proven time and time again that teaching abstinence does NOT work. How many teens are avoiding intercourse just because someone "told them to".
