  1. I'm a current college student, and I would really love some advice from a nurse

    njmomstudent replied to borinick1492's topic in Nursing Career

    I would contact the advisor asap. Why wait? You should also need A&P I&II, along with the microbiology. Chemistry as well. Are any of the above classes electives that you can substitute a...

  2. Dosage calculations-can you check my answers?

    njmomstudent replied to njmomstudent's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Thank you so

  3. Dosage calculations-can you check my answers?

    njmomstudent posted a topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I just got my syllabus the other day and there are a few assignments in there. I'm usually pretty good with dosage calcs, but I've never seen questions like these two before and was hoping I did them...

  4. medication calculation for Mefoxin

    njmomstudent replied to RNw11's topic in General Students

    Well, for B you would divide 682/6 since its every 4 hours and I get 113.7mg per dose. For C, you have 1000mg/10ml. I still use my general algebra equation for everything. 1000mg/113.7mg=10mL/xmL....

  5. Well, I got my syllabus today...

    njmomstudent replied to MzRN2B's topic in General Students

    Is that for the whole program or just the first semester? We do not have to pay for ours but do have to print it out. Mine is 60 pages for the first semester so far (4 semesters total) and I'm sure...

  6. Books for Nursing School

    njmomstudent replied to Future O.R. Nurse's topic in General Nursing

    I actually love amazon. I bought mine today and saved $300 (we have 10 required texts for this semester). I checked out half.com and chegg (I think) for renting, but honestly, I will need most of...

  7. Education Needed?

    njmomstudent replied to greenfiremajick's topic in General Nursing

    I definitely think you should just go for your MSN after the RN. Thats what I'll be doing. Most MSN programs have a "bridge program" that allows you to enter the MSN program with a BS instead of a...

  8. took the NLN-PAX, got my score back...no idea what it means

    njmomstudent replied to EMT-B gal's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Its a very good score. Your 155 is out of 200. However, there are experimental questions that don't count towards your percentile score. There's another list that says science 57 out of 60, etc. Thats...

  9. Geriatric UTI and Hallucinations/Psychosis

    njmomstudent replied to njmomstudent's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Thank you everyone. I did see him today and he is hallucinating badly. He talks to people that aren't there. He thought he was in his truck at one point and was trying to get a screwdriver he needed....

  10. hep b shots

    njmomstudent replied to misty720's topic in General Students

    Its sounds like your physician is crazy. Of course a titer can be done for hepb. I just had it done.... at a lab. There's no way in heck I'd be going through the whole series again if I didn't need...

  11. transfer from a CC to Rutgers without associate degree?

    njmomstudent replied to epicness's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Well, it depends on which campus you are going to attend. I don't see any programs for RN-BSN at new brunswick or newark, so are you talking about camden?? Usually, people have to get thier english...

  12. New student with crippling panic attacks!

    njmomstudent replied to Tightropewalker's topic in General Students

    Brokenroads has good advice. I suffer from anxiety and have nocturnal panic attacks. My hormones are a huge contributing factor. It blows, but like another poster said, it doesn't sound like you had a...

  13. pitocin and oxygen

    njmomstudent replied to Valerie RN, BSN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I definitely had oxygen in between pushing breaks... mind you, my IV infiltrated towards the end so I wasn't getting the pit anymore (which REALLY sucks when you stop having contractions right as the...

  14. 1+1 LPN to RN

    njmomstudent replied to ornery2athome's topic in General Students

    My friend is doing it that way. She said she's doing it for the cost (I guess its cheaper at my school???? Or maybe since she has a 1 year break in between it will let her save some more???) Basically...

  15. Certification Tests to Take While Getting BSN

    njmomstudent replied to whitecat5000's topic in General Students

    I don't think its a bad idea to get your ACLS and PALS before you graduate or have an opportunity for an externship in an area that requires it (although you won't be using it). I know it can be done,...

  16. Help! Insubordinate Nursing Aides

    njmomstudent replied to yadda_yadda_yadda's topic in General Nursing

    If the DNS is referring to you as the "the rough B--ch on the floor" to your face, then its obvious nothing will change in this place, and no one cares to. Hand in your resignation, and get out the...

  17. Pre-Nursing AS this fall...then what? Advice please

    njmomstudent replied to savandanurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Scholarships (maybe-I can't get any for my AAS RN program because I already have a bachelors) and loans... loans loans loans. They'll always give you $$$ that

  18. Mad cow disease- how can you get it??

    njmomstudent replied to Epona's topic in General Nursing

    No its not

  19. Mad cow disease- how can you get it??

    njmomstudent replied to Epona's topic in General Nursing

    You can get it through blood (thats why if you've lived in the UK you cannot donate blood) and its also been found in saliva and other bodily fluids. Its not just bovine. Elk and deer can spread it...

  20. I want to be a Nurse!

    njmomstudent replied to Cassandraann's topic in General Nursing

    The way I'm doing it (because of time and finances) is through my community college that has a great associates program. I will be extending my education to a masters at some point. I already have my...

  21. differences of nurse's role to CRNA's role

    njmomstudent replied to milian7's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Have you thought about med school

  22. Any parents in NS without a support system?

    njmomstudent replied to starmickey03's topic in General Students

    Have you checked to see if the school you are attending has childcare? If not, I'd be looking at daycares. My cousin has been quite successful with craigslist and small in-home daycares. If you have a...

  23. Nln study guide vs real test

    njmomstudent replied to akgirlz's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    GREAT JOB!!! Thats exactly what I

  24. Oxygenation vs Ventilation

    njmomstudent replied to ARobertson79's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I know my daughters small spontaneous pneumothorax at birth was treated with just oxygen... that may be another scenario for you to

  25. Hurting my chances of being hired? Help

    njmomstudent replied to NIUnurs2be's topic in General Nursing

    I also have my BS in biology and am starting a fall AAS program for my RN. After this I will be most likely skipping the BSN and going right for the MSN at some point. I think you should look at...
