  2. What do patients say that irks you?

    HisTreasure replied to NurseforPreggers's topic in Ob/Gyn

    :rollI've never seen it personally, I saw it on Discovery Health channel. Don't know the rules surrounding it. It's definitely not something I'm interested in

  3. Excelsior College

    HisTreasure replied to Ali8155's topic in Online Distance Learning

    To answer your question, you may download all the study guides for free before enrolling but you can only take NC 1 and 2 without being enrolled. For the remaining tests and to transfer credits, you...

  4. www.quickexams.com

    HisTreasure posted a topic in Online Distance Learning

    Anyone ever check out this site? It offers online study courses for Nursing Concepts and NCLEX-RN exams. It seems like it could be useful, but at $39.99 a piece it could get very pricey. There isn't...

  6. What do patients say that irks you?

    HisTreasure replied to NurseforPreggers's topic in Ob/Gyn

  8. Medicaid. Is it being abused?

    HisTreasure replied to SWFlorida's topic in Emergency

    It is such a sad story but unfortunately it is not uncommon. At least around here. While you may feel obligated to get someone to intervene, and rightly so, the truth is that this young lady's life...

  9. Name that part. Words patients use for their own anatomy.

    HisTreasure replied to JEHORAPHA's topic in General Nursing

    This is a fairly old thread and I apologize if this has been added, as I haven't read through each one. My daughter is four and I have always referred to her lady parts/chest/buttocks as her...

    HisTreasure replied to cygni519's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Wow! Congrats on the new position! I remember when I got my first LPN (well, GPN) position. The starting rate was $13.50 and I was appalled! I had been told all through nursing school that I would...

  17. Measuring big for pregnancy, eyebrows raised

    HisTreasure replied to HisTreasure's topic in General Nursing

  18. Measuring big for pregnancy, eyebrows raised

    HisTreasure replied to HisTreasure's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know if she told the NM or someone else. I just got the sticky note, and I knew it was her because she was the only person I discussed it with. I'm not angry so much, but this is a stressful...

  19. Tattoos and nursing

    HisTreasure replied to PrincessJessica's topic in General Nursing

  20. LPN Pay?

  23. Anyone have a huge student loan bill?

    HisTreasure replied to dreamBIG's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I think a Perkins loan is federal, but you do have to ask about it. The government subsidizes the loan and the school is the lender. Many schools won't publicize the loan or put it on your award...
