  1. Dieting and nursing school

    Jennybrie replied to Jennybrie's topic in General Students

    I've never heard of this before. What does the work out

  2. I'm seeing a lot of unprofessional posting here related to venting about patients

    Jennybrie replied to Garethaus's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I usually do (stay on my side of the section) and agree with what all of you are saying about this topic and the attitudes that some of us students have. I'd wish some of my fellow students would keep...

  3. Dieting and nursing school

    Jennybrie replied to Jennybrie's topic in General Students

    I actually agree with everything you said but this is seriously an underrated part of losing weight or simply being healthy. It's really easy to go on a 12 hour clinical and realize that you only have...

  4. Dieting and nursing school

    Jennybrie replied to Jennybrie's topic in General Students

    That's a great idea! Sometimes it's hard to stay focused and achieve our goals alone. The small support from each other could be the push we need to get to the gym or skip the

  5. How do you find time for your love ones?

    Jennybrie replied to Brian's topic in General Students

    I devote Saturday's for my boyfriend and me with no school or school projects. This includes staying off the schools website and email. On Saturday I am no longer a nursing student, just a 30 year old...

  6. Dieting and nursing school

    Jennybrie replied to Jennybrie's topic in General Students

    Thanks for the comments. I like the idea of a healthy lifestyle and trying to eat right and exercise but (being devil's advocate here) sometimes it's easier to grab something fast on the way home or...

  7. How long are clinical shifts?

    Jennybrie replied to mee9mee9's topic in General Students

    12 hours with 30-60 minute pre-conference and 60 minute post conference = 14 hours, one day a

  8. Student nurse and Video games.

    Jennybrie replied to jazon77's topic in General Students

    I play video games on occasion when I feel I have the time or I want to unwind from the day. You have to find some way to relieve the stress of school and playing games is a healthy outlet. If you...

  9. I passed nursing school!

    Jennybrie replied to LLL01's topic in General Students

    Congrats on finishing AND having an interview. It's obvious that you have worked really hard to get here. Good luck and God

  10. It's Official My Brain is Fried!

    Jennybrie replied to PinkCupcake's topic in General Students

    Thanks for sharing. Got two more finals left before break and the tension is killing me. Good luck to you

  11. Pinning and graduation ceremonies when you didn't pass

    Jennybrie replied to allisonjdean's topic in General Students

    I can understand your feelings that you feel the others who did not pass shouldn't walk but that is up to the school to decide. It is possible that the school plans to do remediation for the students...

  14. Why ESRD patient still take furosemide???

    Jennybrie replied to orchunkin's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    It looks like you're still confused how lasix works and asking the same questions over again. If the physician thinks that the pt taking lasix as a benefit to the overall health and there are no...

  15. Unbelievable exam question

    Jennybrie replied to metal_m0nk's topic in General Students

    I understand that the question is a replica. The format of the question has nothing to do with nursing at all unless you are prioritizing your care. The NCLEX has a lot of what would you do first,...

  16. Unbelievable exam question

    Jennybrie replied to metal_m0nk's topic in General Students

    What does that question have to do with nursing? I can understand that part of an assessment is finding triggers for allergens but in all honesty I think your instructor is wasting your time with...

    Jennybrie replied to Joe V's topic in News, Announcements

    My instructor suggested that I need more experience with cultural diversity so here I

  19. nursing with back problem

    Jennybrie replied to peachsole's topic in General Students

    I agree with the above post. I too have a chronic back condition that only bothers me when I do something wrong such as lifting a pt incorrectly or bending the wrong way. Shop around for a good pair...

  20. Group projects

    Jennybrie replied to NICU:)'s topic in General Students

    I think as a group (without this individual) should talk to the instructor and let them know how this student isn't doing her share of the work. Provide specific examples of when you do get to meet...

  21. This semester of nursing school not going well for me - unbelievable

    Jennybrie replied to Nogoodmood's topic in General Students

    I'm glad that you are able to recognize that you need to make some changes in your schedule to be successful in nursing school. Good luck to you and I hope you realize that most of the comments people...

  22. This semester of nursing school not going well for me - unbelievable

    Jennybrie replied to Nogoodmood's topic in General Students

    It sounds like you're stretching out too thin. In nursing school you make sacrifices to get through a very tough and demanding program. I don't mean to sound harsh but if you value your social life...

  23. Rahhh! Nursing school is taking its toll

    Jennybrie replied to Brian's topic in General Students

    I've been in school for 14 months now and I'm not sure if it's getting easier or if I learned not to sweat the small stuff. The first two semesters I thought that I could only do well in the program...

  24. Skills Check off??

    Jennybrie replied to GodIs082010's topic in General Students

    Basic nursing interventions like bed changes, transporting a patient from the bed to the chair, foley insertion, IV insertion, IVPB and maintenance, etc. Your instructor should tell you what will be...

  25. Microbiology HELP!!!!!

    Jennybrie replied to littlefrog7's topic in General Students

    Microbiology is hard if you go in too deep. Learn what you need to know as a nurse and everthing else is just added information. Usually the key points at the end of the chapter are good to cover in...
