    Who is your Favorite TV or Movie nurse?

    BabyRN2Be replied to sunnyjohn's topic in General Nursing

    Gotta love Kitty Foreman. She's a hoot. Julie London from Emergency! such a long time ago... By far, all the nurses on MASH when they aren't shown covorting with Hawkeye in the "nurse is there for...

    BabyRN2Be replied to JUSTYSMOM's topic in Emergency

    Saunders Q&A---#310,I don't understand

    BabyRN2Be replied to dharma3055's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    This is one subject that I know that I'm going to need help in one day: ECG interpretation. Fortunately, there are many books on various nursing topics. I see them every time I walk into Barnes and...

    Fetal Demise less than 20 weeks

    BabyRN2Be replied to SC RN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    We do to. They go to obs rooms right outside of the entry to our c/s area. It's very quiet, far, far away from the regular L&D unit so moms won't be subjected to hearing other women in labor or...

    Lpn in L&D?

    BabyRN2Be replied to new_mom2005's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Right now our hospital has only one LPN. The rest are RN's. I'm not sure why this one gal got hired because I was told that there were no LPN's in

    Intimidated by the thought of learning vag exams...help!

    BabyRN2Be replied to onehusbandsevenkids's topic in Ob/Gyn

    As palesarah mentioned, use the dilitation charts if you are a visual person (like myself, so I know where you are coming from). Spend time practicing with it so you can translate the visual to the...

    I hope this doesn't offend anyone...

    BabyRN2Be replied to markjrn's topic in General Nursing

    I understand what you are saying and yes, it would get to me too if a nurse was wasting time on a linguistics lesson rather than focus on a pain management issue. Mark, hope you can get out of there....

    I quit smoking and need advice

    BabyRN2Be replied to Medic2RN's topic in General Nursing

    Congratulations on making such a wonderful, life changing decision! People who are affected by cigarette smoke so much really appreciate people like you who want to change to make this a healthier...

    Absolutely the most entertaining birth plan I have ever read....

    BabyRN2Be replied to Mermaid4's topic in Ob/Gyn

    i told her that it was a bit unrealistic to have a different song playing at each highlight of labor. and i also told her that if she wanted someone to attend to her, she better hire a dj because i'm...

    Anyone following up on Terry Schiavo case?

    BabyRN2Be replied to Ms.RN's topic in General Nursing

    Well, all I know is that the autopsy showed no sign of abuse from either side. Terri's family (can't remember their names at the moment) was hoping that the autopsy would at least show some abuse at...

    Does an ADN look bad?

    BabyRN2Be replied to bth44's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    No, I'm not going for my CRNA, but I was told just the other day by one of our nurses that I should go the ADN route. Why? One of the big universities offering the BSN degree has a VERY low pass rate...

    Illegal Drugs At Work?

    BabyRN2Be replied to GrnHonu99's topic in General Nursing

    Nah, in her mind it was OK because she was married before she had sex. Or so she says. I think she only had one boy because if her theory is right that boys come from "one time encounters", I can see...

    general chemistry how much math

    BabyRN2Be replied to Maisie's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks for your reassurance! This is one area that I'm not good at, and in order to get into nursing school, I've got to have pretty high grades. Chem is the only thing that I worry about, Biology for...

    OK Hosp. Smoking Ban

    BabyRN2Be replied to LadyBugLass's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    No, inside the hospital is total non-smoking. But outside the hospital there's still the smoke hut and people absolutely ignore the signs that say "NO SMOKING DUE TO INCOMING AND OUTGOING MEDICAL...

    NCLEX-RN what does it mean when?

    BabyRN2Be replied to Nrs_angie's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Angie, If you'd like, there's a forum in the nursing student section which deals with the NCLEX specifically. You also might get some really great answer down there, too. Not that these guys are doing...

    general chemistry how much math

    BabyRN2Be replied to Maisie's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Well, that's one thing I'm not good at. I guess it's a good thing that I'll be doing the intermediate algebra class first. It sounds like a wise move. Thank

    Volunteering hours

    BabyRN2Be replied to BlaineCM's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Let me get this straight: volunteering in a hospital will help you get into nursing school?? If this is true, this is good news. I'm a volunteer labor doula and although I'm supposed to be there for 8...

    general chemistry how much math

    BabyRN2Be replied to Maisie's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    What type of math was most beneficial to you? I'm guessing algebra, but at what level? I've posted about this before, I'll be taking intermediate algebra this fall to get ready for chem. Do you think...

    OK Hosp. Smoking Ban

    BabyRN2Be replied to LadyBugLass's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    I'm just curious as to how it would be enforced. If it really can't be enforced in an area like a hospital, where there is a good reason for a smoking ban, how would they enforce it city-wide? Please...

    BabyRN2Be replied to FutureIsBlue's topic in General Nursing

    Recently I was at a conference where we had a lactation consultant come down and discuss the atmosphere in the NICU. She said that although they had only one LPN up there, she could run circles around...
