    Frazzled_One posted a topic in General Students

    Hi I was needing some help on nursing diagnosis....how do you make one and when....what is the rationale for a nursing diagnosis when a medical one is the one that matters? Goal of care-Is this the...

  2. What kind of stethoscope should I get for nursing school?

    Frazzled_One replied to FLhusker's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Littman! That way you can hear those lung sounds! The Cardiology III is expensive but worth it. You will find yourself spending money several ways throughout nursing school anyway, why not go with a...

    Frazzled_One posted a topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Hi I am a nursing school student that is failing. "Weeding" season has begun in my program and I am at risk for getting plucked. No instructors or faculty members can be trusted to turn to. I know you...

  4. Do nurses eat their young, even when they are their teachers?

    Frazzled_One replied to commonsense's topic in General Students

  6. Do nurses eat their young, even when they are their teachers?

    Frazzled_One replied to commonsense's topic in General Students

    Evidently it depends on your location and current nursing situation in your state. The question that is on everyone's mind now is....why is there a nursing shortage? Why exactly is there a nursing...

  7. Trauma!

    Frazzled_One replied to Frazzled_One's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks, :) I mean, you can't really define what reality is anyway. In my reality, nursing is not a boring career that consists of 70-75% paperwork and the rest actual patient care. No....that is not...

  8. Crossed the line... or expected behavior?

    Frazzled_One replied to traceyw's topic in General Students

  9. Trauma!

    Frazzled_One replied to Frazzled_One's topic in General Nursing

  10. Crossed the line... or expected behavior?

    Frazzled_One replied to traceyw's topic in General Students

    I think you are a prime example of what new nurses of today and nurses of the future should be. These nurses now are old school, washed up, still scared of the doctor type nurses that would have kept...

  11. The imporrtance of having a degree in this economy especially In Nursing !!

    Frazzled_One replied to Blessed S.N.23's topic in General Students

    Frazzled_One replied to Frazzled_One's topic in General Nursing

  13. Trauma!

    Frazzled_One replied to Frazzled_One's topic in General Nursing

    Frazzled_One replied to Frazzled_One's topic in General Nursing

    Frazzled_One replied to Frazzled_One's topic in General Nursing
