Hi, I have a little nephew with a cast in his arm. It is itching him a lot and I know we should not place baby powder, lotion, liquid, or any instrument inside the cast to help him scratch. I have used the hair dryer in the cold setting and I have pu...

Hi everyone, I am having a hard time finding my first RN job and I want to ask you for advice. I became an RN last September 2013. My strengths to find my first RN job are: I have an Associate in Arts, an Associate's in Nursing, a 3.4 GPA, an RN lic...

Thank you very much for sharing your experience and advice with me. I will take your tips into account and I will try different positions. Hopefully soon, I can write again with good news about my job search. I really appreciate you taking your time ...

By the way, thank you all for the feedback. I was able to get a B in nursing 1 and I am doing much better in nursing 2. I will be puti ng in practice the advice.

Hi, I started nursing school this month and I have information overload. I don't know how to focus for my first test (next Monday). I go through the objectives, key concepts, charts and recordings as much as I can; but it is impossible to go over the...

Thanks! I purchased the book "Fundamentals of Success"

Thank you both for your answers. I definitely have a problem with test taking. I discussed my questions with the teacher and listened to her rationales. I am going to check to see if I can find some help to learn how to answer those questions.

One more semester to wait and we'll finally start the nursing program! Who is in for Spring 2012?

Thank you all for your answers! It's awesome to see that there are people who care about helping me succeed. On my first test, I got an 80, then I improved a little and got an 87. Now, I am back to the 80. I felt so sad because this time I used all m...

I registered my book in Evolve, and I'll be trying to practice as much as I can. Thanks for the advice :)

That's exactly how I feel. I know it's imposible to read all of it, and reading the first 2 & last lines of every paragraph seems too little. I've done this, but I miss a lot of info like you said. I guess I just have to keep trying to see if I c...

Good luck to you too escapebigd. I hope you can accomplish your dreams.

Thank you so much for taking your time to give me advice :)

thank you both for your responses =). i am so glad, i can tell other nursing students what i am feeling since i get perspective and i realize i'm not the only one struggling, and because it helps me to reflect in my own feelings and needs. it really ...

Congrats Samnik! :)

Just send your request :)

Look for Valencia College Nursing Spring 2012

Do you guys want to start a group on facebook?

I went to Osceola and payed for 2 pins already... I saw they had a list for ordering them, even though, we are not going to get them until later. I got 2 uniforms, 2 name tags (one for the stethoscope and the other for the bp cuff),and a labcoat. I d...

Yes, I already ordered my uniforms. I don't want to keep thinking that I have to set money aside. Nursing school is expensive lol

Thanks, I wasn't sure about the shirts! There were so many students at orientation today... it was hard to figure it out. What campus are you planning to go? I want to register at Osceola.

Did you guys ordered the polo shirts on orientation or did they said not to do it yet? I guess I did not paid attention to that detail. Thanks!

Hi Femlatina! I didn't know that we had access to the secure nursing website already. Thanks!

Hi Lynn, I used the TEAS guide to prepare for the test but it didn't have a lot of info for the science portion. I used the McGraw Hill nursing entrance test guide instead. I also purchased the TEAS practice test online. The way it works is that you ...
