    newgrad2004 replied to Saved_by_Grace's topic in General Students

    Phelbotomy is different. They do that. Here in my school we dont (ADN) stick each other. Although all my instructors did when they were in school. And as far as fighting it, again I wouldnt rock...

  2. I have to be bathed by my classmate???

    newgrad2004 replied to Saved_by_Grace's topic in General Students

    LoL if you wish. But in my class we had to pick same sex partners. But it isnt a huge deal since no one gets nude. So I can see how some schools wouldnt care either way. Its a good experience and...

    newgrad2004 replied to Saved_by_Grace's topic in General Students

    I have seen this too and agree with the boot camp thingy. We had many "rebel" students try to change exam questions, stating they were too hard, well DUH do you not think they are hard for a reason?...

    newgrad2004 replied to Saved_by_Grace's topic in General Students

    newgrad2004 replied to rachelaleanRN2B's topic in First Year After Licensure

  8. I have to be bathed by my classmate???

    newgrad2004 replied to Saved_by_Grace's topic in General Students

    Hahah I recall being as frightened about this as you but most just wore shorts and some daring ones wore a bathing suit. We had the curtains drawn and most of us knew someone from our prereqs that we...

  9. How do you really feel about 5-star rooms?

    newgrad2004 replied to maddiecat's topic in General Nursing

    They all (the rooms) look the same with the lights off at night. But I hate those pts who will ask to be waited on hand and foot,( like the woman who got up to come to the nurses station for...

  12. Hippa info. please

    newgrad2004 replied to plumrn's topic in General Nursing

    You cant prove anyone is a relative. Besides what if the one relative calls whom they dont want to know. The nurses at our hospital just pass the call to the room and let the pt answer their...

    newgrad2004 replied to ferfer's topic in General Nursing

    I thought psych was fun. I was nervous. One thing dont wear any necklaces or the name tags with the cord that you can pull on. I agree they will tell you anything and dont believe all they tell...

    newgrad2004 replied to Shamrock's topic in General Nursing

    Every nurse I ever saw wearing them swears by them and many had back surgeries and swear the shoes helped them a lot. They look so "tiggerish" to me. WHen I see them I want to sing the tigger song....

    newgrad2004 replied to Ninet's topic in Ob/Gyn

  24. the term "animal nurse"

    newgrad2004 replied to Clarvina Streisand's topic in General Nursing

    I think techs do a lot but in no way have to know the sorts of things nurses do. How many disease processes and drugs interactions and animal codes have they worked? How long would you code "fido"....
