    No I didn't; I said I was fearful of
  5. What is general skills lab etiquette?

    Lori: You're asking me why someone should practice and learn skills they haven't been formally taught yet (but will certainly be taught eventually) on their own? I'd say the reason is because if a...
  6. When to wear what. (Scrubs, lab coats, etc.)

    So, can I get a succinct explanation of what is (and what is not) appropriate, in general, as far as attire is concerned? I wouldn't be caught dead wearing scrubs or anything if all I have is a...
  7. Scared to death I won't get into my program.

    I am a pre-nursing student at IUPUI (21-year-old male). I transferred in with 12 credits (4.0 GPA in all of them), and I consider myself to have good studying/testing habits. I have ~6 months of...
  8. Irritable Bowel Syndrome

    I have suffered from Irritable Bowel Syndrome since I was very little (around maybe 7 years old or so). I am 20 now, 21 in September. I am starting at IUPUI for pre-nursing in the Fall, and hope to be...
  9. Are these good TEAS scores for IU BSN?

    So, I just got the results for my TEAS V exam. Are these good? I have a 4.0 and the only prerequisite I have left is anatomy, which I'm half done with. Adjusted Individual Total Score: 86.7% ATI...

  11. Irritable Bowel Syndrome

    Thanks for the comments, guys. I'm definitely working on identifying triggers and staying away from them. My IBS is very mild compared to many others who have attacks daily. I have been looking into...
  12. I have a tendency to get very depressed when I fail something big. There are two things that I am already deathly afraid will happen when I start: 1. Not getting into the nursing program 2. Not...
  13. Starting pre-nursing in Fall at IUPUI. Already a nervous wreck.

    Thanks for the encouragement, Lace! I wish you the best of luck too. Hopefully I can get some stress management techniques as
  14. I'm a 20-year-old guy from Indiana (close to Indianapolis) and I've dealt with depression/anxiety my whole life (as well as occasional IBS). I am very introverted, and have almost no friends. I want...
  15. Everything feels like it's falling apart.

    So, I've completed 12 of my required credits for admission for my local nursing plan, and I got 4.0s in all of those classes. Now, I dropped 2 of the classes I was enrolled in for this semester...
  16. Now, while I understand that hospitals have a pecking order, and that usually, at least as I'd like to believe, that pecking order is usually more about protecting patients than protecting the...
  17. Ridiculous, overbearing restrictions on volunteers

    And that fact is even more understandable by those who work for free. However, that isn't the case with paid staff. They get compensation for the work they do. Volunteers do

    Then you're ignorant. :) That is your uninformed
  20. Ridiculous, overbearing restrictions on volunteers

    So much for civility. If I were you, I would try thinking before saying things. Also, before you try putting words in peoples' mouths, I would suggest not. I never said that "rules that protect...

    This is a good example of how little you
  22. Ridiculous, overbearing restrictions on volunteers

    Are you sure you're not just sore that I'm saying that, at the end of the day, just because you passed a test, that doesn't mean you care about helping people any more than a non-licensed person? It...
  23. Ridiculous, overbearing restrictions on volunteers

    Anyway, I came across an interesting situation the other day. I observed one of the nurses in the unit that I work at ask a volunteer if he would go into a patient room and press the "restart" button...

    You are
  25. Ridiculous, overbearing restrictions on volunteers

    You've essentially summed up my entire point I was trying to make. Do you really think that nurses are more likely to hand pills to a patient correctly than any other person with general common sense?...
