    Pass Rate of NCLEX Online

    BabyRN2Be posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Hi Everyone, Is there a way of finding out a school's pass rate of the NCLEX online? Is there a place where we could check this out online or do we have to ask the schools themselves? Where's the best...

    Wishes Regarding Students in Birth Plans

    BabyRN2Be posted a topic in Ob/Gyn

    I've been reading a lot of birth plans on the web - the one I use with my clients has been currently hijacked by my computer. I know that I include this question on my birth plan about students...

    Increase in minor complaints?

    BabyRN2Be replied to MrsWampthang's topic in Emergency

    I've wanted to commented on this... the problem could be with the PCP's office. Whenever we call and tell them what's going on (sore throat, fever, could it be strep, etc.), they usually tell us to...

    divorcing while in school advice

    BabyRN2Be replied to timewood's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think that anyone should criticize you for using the system. You used the system the way it was meant to be used - to help people who really want to become productive members of society to be...

    Another Nurse Bites the Dust...

    BabyRN2Be replied to CseMgr1's topic in General Nursing

    Wow, that sounds exciting. Heck, I'd leave nursing to be an FBI agent. That would be just too attractive to pass up! Good luck to

    White uniform dress common nowadays?

    BabyRN2Be replied to FutureIsBlue's topic in General Nursing

    Ditto. Stand too close to a mom who's delivering and you'll be right in the line of fire for some prime birth glop. Imagine having to get THAT out of white on a daily basis. Makes for high uniform...

    Am I overeacting???

    BabyRN2Be replied to Deb123j's topic in General Nursing

    No, you didn't overreact. As others have said, it's YOUR kid, you make the rules not your mom. Your mom should support you with discipline. Boy, I know my grandma would have been upset if I had done...

    This article disturbs me

    BabyRN2Be replied to TexasPoodleMix's topic in General Nursing

    Some of it has to do with her perceptions of nursing before she went to school. I'm wondering what she expected it to be like? Did she expect nursing to be like it was in the 60's when the acuity...

    Has Anyone Read the Echo Heron Books?

    BabyRN2Be posted a topic in General Nursing

    I was wondering if anyone has read any of the books written by Echo Heron. She is a gifted writer, and I have loved her books (Intensive Care, The Story of a Nurse; Condition Critical, The Story of a...

    Is this understaffing (or is it me?)

    BabyRN2Be replied to Town & Country's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    This reminds of something that happened recently in my family. My fiance's grandma had to move from her LTC because it was closing. Unfortunately, my future MIL was in a rush to find a place to take...

    Scheduling Vent

    BabyRN2Be replied to Ortho_RN's topic in General Nursing

    Definitely bring in a note documenting the problem. I believe that they are supposed to accommodate those (within reason) who have such problems. The note is the first step, though. Do that and see...

    Caps anyone??

    BabyRN2Be replied to KibbsRNstudent's topic in General Nursing

    When my mom graduated in the early 60's, they all wore caps. When she went back to work in a nursing home in the mid-80's, she wore a cap so that the residents would know that she's a nurse. By that...

    Since I haven't received any replies to the post that I made in "Recommended Reading", I thought that I might bring this down here to see if I got a few more responses. After all, these aren't really...

    BabyRN2Be replied to RN92's topic in General Nursing

    At our hospital, nails longer than the pad of the finger are not allowed. This is for all employees working in NICU, L&D and P&P. This not only goes for acrylic nails but for natural nails as...

    What comments do you hear from OB's about birth plans?

    BabyRN2Be replied to becca.utns's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Sorry for the double post, but I read this and had to respond before I forgot. I can't agree with you more. The more that I see and read, the more that I say "See a Midwife" whenever I hear that...

    What comments do you hear from OB's about birth plans?

    BabyRN2Be replied to becca.utns's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Thank you, palesarah! :) I believe I mentioned it here when I said that I had asked an L&D nurse about birth plans. She said that they are fine as long as it's not a 7 pg book from birthplan.com...

    Help design a birth plan

    BabyRN2Be replied to reprise's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Zhlake has some great suggestions. I agree with her - don't download a 7 pg birthplan off the net and mark what you do and do not want. The staff doesn't have time to read it, and most of the time...

    Wishes Regarding Students in Birth Plans

    BabyRN2Be replied to BabyRN2Be's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I just wanted to emphasize that I realize that students need to learn SOMEWHERE. If I didn't have some sexual abuse issues, it wouldn't be a problem. Since I work with some clients who have these...

    No one is being hateful, just reporting on what happened. Fair and balanced. Anyhoo, back to our summer reading... I'm now reading Immaculate Deception II. If anyone gets time to check this one out,...

    Wishes Regarding Students in Birth Plans

    Yes, I am in a position to say something, only IF I'm working on a private birth. Most of the time I come on, the mom has been in the hospital for a few hours already and they already have students...
