    Tooimpatient replied to Tooimpatient's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    If we are overstaffed because of Pts being discharged they will draw names to choose which nurse gets to go home (not in a 4 hour block, but immediately like ASAP) and the other charge nurse lets you...

    Tooimpatient replied to Tooimpatient's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Yes that's it!!! She always makes me feel or look like an idiot. That's one of the daily things I get from her. She's not ALWAYS mean or picking on me but she always manages to TRY and point something...

    Tooimpatient posted a topic in Medical-Surgical

  6. Good website or book for refresher?

    Tooimpatient replied to Tooimpatient's topic in Medical-Surgical

    Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately I sold my books like an idiot.....needed the money. I may still have a few random books left though, I'll have to check. That's a good idea though. I've learned a...

    Tooimpatient posted a topic in General Students

    Tooimpatient replied to cpl_dvldog's topic in Alabama Nursing

    I am starting my 3rd semester and I will admit everything you've said is 100% correct. I know someone who scored a mid C on a test last semester, when test review comes around she found out it didn't...

    Tooimpatient replied to cpl_dvldog's topic in Alabama Nursing

    Tooimpatient replied to cpl_dvldog's topic in Alabama Nursing
