  1. The Nightmare is OVER

    DaFreak71 replied to sungoddess's topic in General Nursing

    Good for you!! Please do something nice for yourself to celebrate this wonderful milestone. Also, consider having a bonfire with some of your less worthy texts.

  2. How smart are you?

    DaFreak71 replied to psycteach's topic in General Nursing

    4.0 student on ACT and foundation scholarships. NOT a genius. I just read a lot and study hard. My husband, on the other hand, is a genius. He rarely ever studied during nursing school and got 4...

  3. Retirement "Gift"

    DaFreak71 replied to rck213's topic in General Nursing

    Wow, that's pretty crummy. I think she would have been better off not getting a "gift" at all. A folding canvas chair? Sounds like something you'd get for free for signing up for a magazine. RWS:...

  4. Opinions please...

    DaFreak71 replied to Sandi0302's topic in General Nursing

    If you really don't want to be an RN, but are not satisfied with the job title of LPN, I personally wouldn't bother with going back for the RN. It's a challenging program and unless it's something you...

  5. Experienced Nurses Only

    DaFreak71 replied to RunningWithScissors's topic in General Nursing

    Welcome to the internet where you don't get to dictate whether or not someone posts to a PUBLIC forum. As for having a private forum to vent, give the general nursing forum a try. From what I've...

  6. Experienced Nurses Only

    DaFreak71 replied to RunningWithScissors's topic in General Nursing

    Hi, There is a student nurse forum, but where exactly are the students suppose to post when they want the advice of an experienced nurse, such as yourself? I know that Daytonite is vigilant about...

  7. What is the hardest exam you've ever taken?

    DaFreak71 replied to SoulShine75's topic in General Students

    LOL. Is your avatar suppose to be a starving piggy bank? OMG it's

  8. To cap or not to cap!

    DaFreak71 replied to Alice b.'s topic in General Students

    I'm glad someone else chimed in about the men. What exactly are they suppose to wear on their heads? I think nursing has come a very long way towards becoming more evidence based, more scientific,...

  9. I need some serious and honest advice please, regarding fibromyalgia and methadone

    DaFreak71 replied to FutureNurse2005's topic in General Nursing

    I am so sorry for the loss of your little sister. I wonder if that loss is making you feel even more responsible for your other sister. Your sister does need help, but I don't think that anyone...

  10. Uncooperative Lab Partner

    DaFreak71 replied to shining_star28463's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Can you be the third wheel while another team practices? At least you'd be able to observe and there's a possibility that the other team will let you practice on them. Maybe you could practice on a...

  11. Womens interest in male nurses

    DaFreak71 replied to johny1's topic in Men in Nursing

    I must be really out of the loop because I think men in scrubs who are smart, caring, responsible and know how to save lives are wicked sexy. I'm married to a nurse so I'm a lucky woman! :blushkiss...

  12. Be Careful!

    DaFreak71 replied to SNKerri's topic in General Nursing

    :yeahthat:

  13. Be Careful!

    DaFreak71 replied to SNKerri's topic in General Nursing

    I didn't feel that the OP ripped anyone a new anything. She/he can reach a much wider audience by posting on a forum that thousands of people read. Seems like as legit of a post as any that I've...

  14. Cheating on nursing exams

    DaFreak71 replied to MiaNJ's topic in General Nursing

    MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS ALREADY. Your posse of amateur detectives sounds completely obsessed with busting some classmates for cheating, despite not having PROOF, just a feeling. You are using faulty...

  15. Should there be a limit on trying to pass NCLEX?

    DaFreak71 replied to 2ndCareerRN's topic in General Nursing

    It seems like the assumption is that the number of attempts for passing the NCLEX correlates to the quality of the nurse. Since nursing is an evidence based profession, perhaps some research should...

  16. Nursing Student Divorce Rate?

    DaFreak71 replied to ibmaryann's topic in General Students

    My marriage not only survived my husband going through nursing school, but it's surviving now that I am in nursing school. And we're not only surviving, we are thriving. As other posters have said,...

  17. RN hospital health benefits

    DaFreak71 replied to lee1's topic in General Nursing

    We pay $260.00 per month for our "top of the line" policy from the hospital where my husband works. If we go to certain clinics (that are associated with the hospital) we pay $15.00 per visit. In...

  18. Allowing more than RN on name badge?

    DaFreak71 replied to MQ Edna's topic in General Nursing

    Excellent points, very well said. I am in complete agreement about the entire post. Of course feathers will be ruffled and the whole thread will probably be closed, but ya gotta love it when someone...

  19. Patients making me feel dumb

    DaFreak71 replied to kmokay's topic in General Nursing

    I think whether or not you have the "right" to be in the room depends on the patient. If the patient knew you were a clerical worker would she have felt comfortable with you present during her gyn...

  20. Condition H

    DaFreak71 replied to LaNorteBellaRN's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not sure why people are assuming that patients would call a condition H for not having a fluffy pillow or a bigger chunk of pie with dinner. If patients were informed that the system only handled...

  21. Strange question, but I need to ask

    DaFreak71 replied to Lisky90's topic in General Nursing

    Sometimes fungi smells like

  22. Condition H

    DaFreak71 replied to LaNorteBellaRN's topic in General Nursing

    Could you imagine what life would be like if everyone else in society had the same attitude about condition H as some of the nurses who have posted on this thread? The defendent wouldn't be able to...

  23. Condition H

    DaFreak71 replied to LaNorteBellaRN's topic in General Nursing

    Down here on planet Earth, people aren't born with infinite wisdom...they make mistakes. Most preventative measures are discovered and bandied about as common sense only after a mistake or tragedy...

  24. What's the best site to order scrubs from??~?

    DaFreak71 replied to sweetiehrt7985's topic in General Nursing

    :yeahthat:

  25. Getting a verbal for being too happy.

    DaFreak71 replied to st4wb3rr33sh0rtc4k3's topic in Nursing Career

    I'll admit to being one of those people who get really annoyed by too much perkiness or those who ooze happiness. Let me clarify: I consider myself to be a happy person the vast majority of the time....
