  1. Clinical Failure

    Do u take any responsibilty in this? Are you ever held accountable outside of school? Doesn't sound like it...
  2. L&D is def. what i have to do...

    CONGRATULATIONS!!!! I graduate in Dec 12' (1 more semester in Sept), did you do any intern/externships? Do share interview tips:bow:
  3. 17 yr old hep b vaccine and titers....still around?

    I had the series done at 12 or 13 yrs. When I had to have my titers done it showed I had not sero-converted. I had to do the series again and it worked this time. However, if I did not convert I would have had to do the series 1 more time and if stil...
  4. My review log for NCLEX-RN exam.

    Does it matter what version the Lacharity book is 2005 vs. 2010? I'd like to save $ if possible. TIA
  5. No wonder our profession is messed up

    I usually see a NP at my Dr.'s office. Of course, you need to wait days to weeks to see one of the Dr's there. I went in for a rash my GYN (at my yearly) said the previous day was a staph infection:eek: so I was like should I go to the ER??? He said ...
  6. IV solutions Question!

    the only commonly-used intravenous solution containing dextrose that is considered isotonic is d5 1/4 ns (~320 mosm). solutions containing dextrose are somewhat tricky, however. once infused, the dextrose is also immediately metabolized (within 5 min...
  7. Drug Math Question

    I'm not sure of the question you are asking. Is there an order for 750mg Vanco diluted in 15 mL NS? Shouldn't it be what's available, not the drug book?
  8. What to expect the first year at NSCC

    I don't know the differences in nursing schools and how their programs are run; or what is expected but this is from the website at my CC: Ocean County College has become a powerhouse in producing highly qualified nursing graduates. More nursing stud...
  9. What to expect the first year at NSCC

    At my community college, it's a 2 year RN degree. The first semester is 9 credits, second is 12 credits, 3rd is 9, 4th is 12 credits. The workload is intense because it takes up a lot of time. I have 4 kids but I do it. The 1st smester I was enrolled...
  10. PICU without wearing a gown?

    I thought that depended on your specific hospital regulations?
  11. Not sure about Nursing School acceptance?

    My school has basically a zero tolerance absence policy, it is so strict it's almost not fair but it is what is is. It sounds like it is a risk u r going to have to make if u choose to start school. Or enjoy the pregnancy and reapply after the baby.....
  12. PTSD nclex question

    My first thought is B. Is PTSD the client's fault? I mainly think of the military (not in every case of course) with this disorder so why is it their 'fault?' I just finished 1st semester so I'm not 100% sure. Then again, just b/c the client is out d...
  13. "Students with good grades = not good clinical nurses"

    Keep doing what you are doing. Don't let comments like this bring you down. All people say stupid things at one point or another. Remember, our nursing Prof./instucters are just there to guide us. They will not be holding our hand throughout school a...
  14. What to do when you literally HATE your classmates?

    Save yourself all the stress and aggravation...worry about YOURSELF and not everyone else. Are you jealous of your classmates? Who are people to judge others and say they are only in NS for the money, W*F, impossible. I don't think nurses are paid en...
  15. Stethoscope help...

    I'll need one for school. My first semester starts in a few weeks. I saw them for $15 at the college bookstore. This seems like a great deal but also seems too cheap. Can I get away with this or should I just buy a better one? Also, if this is a bad ...
  16. Stethoscope help...

    Thanks, everyone. I did take the advice and splurged slightly. I ordered the Littlman II SE from Medisave online w/free laser engraving, $67.99 + shipping. At my orientation they were selling the most of these and I figured I could find them online f...
  17. Will you share your favorite Pharmacology formulas with me?

    What in the world is LMGTFY?
  18. Do you guys see a lot of people saying they are nursing students....

    The consensus is that most people you come in contact with, don't know much about the different positions working in the medical field. So, for the most part, I would just say, "I'm going to school for Nursing," when asked. To save the person from a ...
  19. Just accepted for Spring 2011

    :nurse:EEEk, reality is setting in and the thrill is slowly fading (I recieved an acceptance letter yesterday and have been rushing like crazy to get everthing done and set up including going to Microbiology class last night. My physical is set for F...
  20. Rutgers Applicants ABSN 2011

    Do you already have an ADN RN degree? If so, u may want to post on the Nursing Students board...I wanted to apply for their transfer student program but I don't have my ADN and they closed apps until 2012 I believe . I'm pretty sure they're quite com...

  24. Ocean County College OCC Nursing Waiting List

    Hmmm, you can't get student loans for Nursing school? You need to pay cash? College is expensive no matter what majoy but I thought you could take out loans and pay back once you have your degree. Very confused:uhoh3:
