  1. Funny Nurse music video!

    Cherish replied to Seiya174's topic in General Nursing

    That was too cute. "Stop stalling stop stalling...we don't want to wait anymore, we're being pushed aside by every nurse on the floor".

  2. Now tetanus booster...

    Cherish replied to CrunchyMama's topic in General Students

    I'm also wondering about this. My university had this information on the school of nursing website which is available to be viewed by the public. It states the class requirements, needing of a...

  3. Now tetanus booster...

    Cherish replied to CrunchyMama's topic in General Students

    There is DTaP or Tdap which is all three and DT or Td (depends on age) which is Diptheria and Tetorifice and I just got that one as a booster. I heard that Tetorifice booster is not usually given...

  4. Diet Coke Commercial: Nurses are Extraordinary

    Cherish replied to s_david_a's topic in General Nursing

    I just loved that they used The Temper Traps song 'Sweet Disposition'. I like that band and really have enjoyed other Australian groups like Empire of the Sun. I don't like either soda but prefer...

  5. I Think I am NOT Going to NS

    Cherish replied to Donald11's topic in General Students

    If your looking for schools without a waiting list and rolling admissions and can move check out: Robert Morris University (Pittsburgh, PA), Elmira College (Elmira, NY), D'Youville College (Buffalo,...

  6. How many uniforms should I buy?

    Cherish replied to Rnstudent2011's topic in General Students

    Wow seems like some schools are requiring you buy the scrubs from them because solid color scrubs are not expensive. My school doesn't care where you buy the scrubs as long as it is Royal Blue. So...

  7. Who's ready to start Med-Surg?

    Cherish posted a topic in General Students

    This fall semester I start Med-Surg 1. I have been waiting for this as this is basically one of the most important courses of the nursing major. Granted I enjoyed Fundamentals last semester but this...

  8. Drug Reference recommendations?

    Cherish replied to sch1109's topic in General Students

    Thanks for that info I have Medscape for the BB but never used it so I logged on and it's great. I have a Davis Drug guide but its optional at my school to use a pda or smartphone drug guide as they...

  9. Does anyone have homework already???

    Cherish replied to sch1109's topic in General Students

    Yup I just finished looking at some infection control, HIPPA, and TB videos that have quizzes that have to be done within the first week so I already did those. I have to now look at some bloodborne...

  10. Drug Reference recommendations?

    Cherish replied to sch1109's topic in General Students

    I love Davis Drug guide

  11. Anyone tried a new ereader for nursing classes?

    Cherish replied to Mkb623's topic in General Students

    If you have an iPhone or Blackberry, Amazon has the Kindle app for free to use on those phones. Just a suggestion if you buy Kindle books and don't want to buy another

  12. Drug calculations in your head or calculator?

    Cherish replied to gumby1411's topic in General Students

    My school all drug calculations are done WITHOUT a calculator. There is drug calc questions on most tests too all you get is a paper and pencil that's it. It's amazing how many people don't know...

  13. College Algebra or Statistics? Pre-Nursing.

    Cherish replied to OnaTrek's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Take Statistics most programs require it as a pre-req just in case you don't get into your first choice. It's also a higher level math then College Algebra and to me it's easier. I took it in a...

  14. Financial aid to continue school

    Cherish replied to 2Bornot2bB's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Sallie Mae provides loans to permanent residents. Most private loan companies want a working cosignor with decent credit, but I would still apply. That must be an expensive ADN program if your federal...

  15. Muscular system depolarization/repolarization/hyperpolarization

    Cherish replied to serenityangel's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  16. Textbooks are obviously important...but what other books may be helpful?

    Cherish replied to BshJss's topic in General Students

    I swear by the Prentice Hall Nursing Reviews and Rationales they have for EVERY nursing subject. Right now I have the Med Surg 2nd edition and the Maternal Newborn Nursing the old edition. You don't...

  17. Awesome amazon.com deal for students - FREE Prime!

    Cherish replied to DayDreamin ER CRNP's topic in General Students

    Yea I got my money back

  18. Rent Textbooks

    Cherish posted a topic in General Students

    I found a new rental book site that is WAYYY cheaper than Cheggs and you can highlight in the books (not too much highlighting). It is always best to rent books that are for general education...

  19. Obnoxious overhead announcements at New Orleans hospital

    Cherish replied to Jbug's topic in General Nursing

    Wow hospitals are becoming like Fuddruckers now. I am surprised they don't play 'Kickstart my Heart' for the CVICU floors, or 'Just My Imagination (Running Away with Me)' for the Psych floor, or even...

  20. To recommend or not to recommend?

    Cherish replied to CNL2B's topic in General Nursing

    I also think it is a socioeconomic status or how one was raised. I haven't lived in my moms house since I was 17 and started working at the age of 14. Granted I am 27 now but I have friends that are...

  21. University of Maryland SON

    Cherish replied to augustdayz2's topic in General Students

    All I can say it is a GREAT program. It is very hard to get accepted into as it is very competitive with a lot of applicants for vacant seats. It is usually ranked as one of the top 10 nursing...

  22. For Fun - Things You Want to Buy Once You're a Nurse

    Cherish replied to Multicollinearity's topic in General Students

    A house...that is ALL mine and I guess my dog's LOL. Then I would love to buy some items that would have no resale value aka Jimmy Choos and Christian Louboutin. But a house is more important I...

  23. Are A's really not practical in nursing school?

    Cherish replied to PaperPencil's topic in General Students

    A lot of MSN and DNP programs want a minimum of 3.0-3.25 gpa range to apply. So I suggest you try to keep your grades up. Some will just look at the last 60 hours of your BSN gpa, basically your...

  24. Fall 2010 Classes!!

    Cherish replied to MzRN2B's topic in General Students

    I had a Pharm Lab when I took Pharmacology. Basically you go to lab and there is power points on different desks with pictures on them of pills, or syringes, dosage calculation questions, IV...

    Cherish replied to Succubus's topic in General Students
