  10. freaking out about taking the nclex

    I took Kaplan review beforehands too. Along with the tips mentioned above, I personally would reschedule the test if I was getting 40% on Kaplan practice
  11. How much experience have you had in other floors as a "NEW" Rn to come up with all these conclusions? You sound like you are saving the world down there while the other nurses on different places are...

  13. There is nothing wrong with a question asked by a CI. There is no such thing as returning to fundamentals. Nursing knowledge is nursing knowledge; there is no level to it. Can you tell me what type of...
  14. Help! I feel horrible.....

    I don't think swabbing it with alcohol would work in this case. The fluid was spread on the floor, maybe some fluid backed up in the bag while it fell. Then no matter how much you alcohol swab the...

  22. Is your clinical experience like mine?

    In my school, everything was the same except for we weren't allowed that much time to turn in care plans. It was due the same day as the rest of the
  23. Why the disdain for LTC?

    Hey OP, why don't you work at LTC? Don't tell because they don't have a 8-5 shifts; no place has it pretty much. If it is that beneficial as you feel, why not give it a try for your own nursing...
  24. Too young to be a nurse??
