    THELIVINGWORST replied to ames86's topic in General Students

    Thank God I got my job in October! But yes, just email or call your instructor and make sure there are no quizzes or tests you'll be missing. My last med math test is on a different day than

    Would you miss the first day of class?

    THELIVINGWORST replied to ames86's topic in General Students

    For a lot of ppl, the two absences rule is only for clinicals and/or labs. It is silly to hold adults to only missing two days in two years. People have families, jobs, medical problems, etc. lecture...

    Disadvantaged not being a CNA/PCT?

    THELIVINGWORST replied to QueenAnnissa's topic in General Students

    As a fairly experienced CNA working in an Acute care hospital, I can say there is often a way to tell if a nurse was ever a CNA. if she was, she usually is okay doing patient care activities like...

    What To Expect in Maternal Child and Pathology?

    THELIVINGWORST replied to CordaeP's topic in General Students

    Be prepared to struggle with all new material. Peds is like med surg for little people, with considerations to keep in mind for their development and their families. OB is all new info plus a bit of...

    Would you miss the first day of class?

    THELIVINGWORST replied to ames86's topic in General Students

    It's so crazy, this EXACT thing happened to me in second semester. I had to miss a clinical day for the only orientation day they had for a month. Seeing as how I desperately needed the job to pay my...

    PT's that require a private room

    THELIVINGWORST replied to RhodyLPNstudent's topic in General Students

    In the early 90's I believe, the government passed the ADA forcing all public establishments and residences to retro fit their facilities so that they were handicap accessible. It was expensive but I...

    PT's that require a private room

    THELIVINGWORST replied to RhodyLPNstudent's topic in General Students

    IMHO there is no reason patients should ever share room, it's terrible for infection control, privacy and safety. Pts who have psych issues, immunocompromise, contagious diseases, etc all should be...

    First Day of Nursing School

    THELIVINGWORST replied to sealford's topic in General Students

    Still maintaining firmly that charging for syllabi is WRONG. Paper and ink is not that expensive. Heck you can even go to the public library and print for 5 cents per page. That's if your school...
