    BabyRN2Be replied to LisaG21's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm sending good thoughts your way. I'm sure that you did well despite your feelings. I know that's normal. Either way, you've gone through school, taken the NCLEX, you deserve to relax! Celebrate in...

    Any Good Nursing Book Suggestions?

    BabyRN2Be replied to JacqueOCS's topic in General Nursing

    I can't say it enough... anything by Echo Heron. She is such an awesome writer. I've heard her fiction isn't as good as her "real life" books. I wish that her publishers would look at her new...

    Isn't this a joke?

    BabyRN2Be replied to ZZTopRN's topic in General Nursing

    I dunno. I received one BEFORE I left the hospital. I was a get well card from the CEO. I personally think that the money could be better spent elsewhere. They said in the card that I would be...

    BabyRN2Be replied to asher315's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Joni, It's great that you have your foot in the door as far as your grandmother being on the volunteer board. Look for a book by Cheri Grant (mine was stolen). The title is something like "Running...

    Doulas?

    BabyRN2Be replied to asher315's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Joni, That's a great idea! After you get your doula certification, approach the hospital about it. We have a great person who put the one at my hospital together, but I don't know how she went about...

    OK Hosp. Smoking Ban

    BabyRN2Be replied to LadyBugLass's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    What really gets me is this: I'm applying for a clerk position at a local hospital. I have chronic pain issues and I'm on medication. However, at this hospital, I can not take any meds 8 hours before...

    What do patients say that irks you?

    BabyRN2Be replied to NurseforPreggers's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Just curious Dalzac, what was her answer? I'd love to know what she said if you don't mind telling. As a side note, I'm just up the turnpike from ya. :) Hope all is well in OKC other than those storms...

    BabyRN2Be replied to NurseforPreggers's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I've heard this so many times too and I couldn't agree with you more. UGH! That and the "taking the baby" thing. Where are you taking it?

    Green card thru nursing?!

    BabyRN2Be replied to Vans's topic in General Nursing

    Vans, Snowfreeze did ask some really good questions, and in the US we do have a nursing shortage partially because retention is not great. Not an hour ago I read the statistic that many nurses quit...

    BabyRN2Be replied to NurseforPreggers's topic in Ob/Gyn

    SmilinBluEyes, if we can't rant here, exactly where can a nurse rant? With all of your experience I know you've probably heard some doosies. Spill 'em. All of 'em, on the table, now. OK, mine's not...

    BabyRN2Be replied to sassykitkatt's topic in General Nursing

    Oh goodness. As a very young pt, I remember this one very well. Had a T&A in '74, thought I was truly going to die. I guess during this time they didn't explain anything to kids and we were told...

    Doulas?

    BabyRN2Be replied to asher315's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Thanks Smilin. I also wanted to say, if ANYONE ever encounters a doula who is going beyond her scope of practice (resetting IV's, giving medical advice over the phone, etc.), find out her name. Ask...

    Unrealistic goal to get job as new grad in ICU?

    BabyRN2Be replied to AKav8trix's topic in Nursing Career

    I highly agree with this statement as well. I know of many students who went to work immediately in CCU, SICU, and NICU. Go for what you want. Hope you do well in whatever you
