    I failed again...

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

    Just wanted to say that accommodations are almost impossible to get. If it's the same group that does the testing for the GRE, you need to demonstrate serious disability, disability that would be...

    the Subpoena Blues

    BabyRN2Be replied to teeituptom's topic in Emergency

    I hope everything does work out OK. We love your words o' wisdom. I don't think they'd let you have access to allnurses.com from jail. Seriously, if you go down and explain yourself (if you can, we...

    Lawsuits

    BabyRN2Be replied to game over's topic in General Nursing

    I think that you are looking at situation number 2. Sometimes it takes a LONG time to get something actually into court. 2-3 years is not all that uncommon in most

    Speaking Spanish Helpful?

    BabyRN2Be replied to Energizer Bunny's topic in General Nursing

    Nekihismom, I've got a book called "Labor and Delivery In My Pocket." It's not a book really, but a very small spiral notebook that gives basic nursing information in a pocket sized book - it fits...

    Failed NCLEX multiple times

    BabyRN2Be replied to Brickman's topic in General Nursing

    I've said it before in the graduate nurse forum and I'll say it here. I really don't like the CAT system of testing. Some people are intimidated by a computer. It's not a familiar way to take a test....

    First Code

    BabyRN2Be replied to Ortho_RN's topic in General Nursing

    Ortho, It sounds like you did all you could do. You checked with the charge nurse and she said that his respiration was OK for him. I know that it's sad, but there's nothing that you did/did not do....

    L & D nurses routinely deliver babies?

    BabyRN2Be replied to midwife sarah's topic in Ob/Gyn

    If there's an emergency and the doctor doesn't get there in time, as in precipitous labor, a nurse might occasionally need to deliver a baby. But otherwise, doctors deliver in the US. If you are a...

    I Passed The Nclex!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

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

    Congratulations!! :) From what I've learned, if you leave the testing center feeling like you've failed, you've in fact passed. This may not be right all the time, but more times than most that seems...

    BabyRN2Be replied to amanda44's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I'm very sorry to hear that, Amanda. I know that it's frustrating, but take some time off and start studying again. Don't give up, you WILL

    'Dumbing Down of Healthcare'

    BabyRN2Be replied to rhiannonwolf's topic in General Nursing

    I couldn't agree more with this statement. Wow, I see it all the time. People go through the want ads and see all the jobs for nurses and say "Hey, I could do that, I mean, how hard could it be? I...

    HELP!!! <LONG>

    BabyRN2Be replied to PedsNurse1981's topic in General Nursing

    As others have said, I highly recommend travel nursing. One of my best friends did that as a speech pathologist. She went all over the country for many years before setting roots down on the east...

    BabyRN2Be replied to maelee's topic in General Nursing

    What's The Deal With A 4.0 Gpa?

    BabyRN2Be replied to Tx-top nurse's topic in General Nursing

    Tx-top, There are possibly other factors which decide about whether or not you get into school. You are absolutely right in that the best nurses are not necessarily the ones who have a 4.0....

    Hospital vs. Doctor's office

    BabyRN2Be replied to LUV4BABIES_WA's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Welcome to the OB nursing field, where you have so many options. On where you want to work, it really depends on your personality. If you really like the "action", the "fly by the seat of your pants",...

    How do you deal w/a student you don't like?

    BabyRN2Be replied to Fivestar22's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with moondancer. ARE you the student you are referring to? Are you wanting tips on how to deal with an instructor who you feel is being too hard on you? If not, how will this situation affect...

    BabyRN2Be replied to Calfax's topic in Emergency

    Within the last month or so there was a thread over in OB/GYN nursing about a situation like this, and that they had to use conscious sedation for a c-section. Most agreed that they would never want...

    BabyRN2Be replied to GEO's topic in General Nursing

    Oh, I hear you and I totally understand. It encourages me that you are able to work in the hospital doing part-time work. Hopefully I'll be able to get something like that one day. Wow, that's the...

    Do You Have Any Favorite OB Myths?

    BabyRN2Be replied to BabyRN2Be's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I had seen a commercial lately for Luvs diapers. It had the voiceover of a "grandmother" giving advice to a young mom, which she ignored. One of the things that she said was "when in doubt, it's...

    I Hate Pp!

    BabyRN2Be replied to nekhismom's topic in Ob/Gyn

    While I expect to work PP one day, I'd like to do it (as well as Newborn Nursery) just to get to know what "normal" is before I go on to NICU. I hope I don't have to do it for too long because I'm...
