I'm in my third semster of nursing school will be graduating in December with a BSN and just got a job working at a local big hospital here in Atlanta, Ga as a tech. I'm at near wits with nursing and haven't even began to work. I hate going to work a...

Shoot i remember reading a nursing journal about new grad burnout in my ethics class. Thought it was a bunch of rubbish until i started working at the hospital six months later.

I wouldnt stress it, just say you got tickets from speeding. I went to jail for driving on a suspended license because of a strict speeding law for people under 21 in georgia that resulted in an immediate license suspension. I was driving 80 in atla...

I'm in my fourth semester of nursing school going for my BSN. I'm a 22 yr old male. I've been working in the hospital as a CNA night shift for 6 months now. I can honestly say I hate my job. I get sad on the days that I have to go to work. I feel li...

You guys are so awesome and have offered some great advice. This is why I come to AN because I know people will understand or at least try to empathize with me.

Those jobs require taking a pay cut, ugh! You cant win for nothing these days.

Last week a pt. On heroin and cocaine overdose snapped his IV off and something flew in my eye. It felt like tubing because it was gritty. I did the same thing rinsed my eyes and ran tests, bump what anybody say when it comes to YOUR health.

Its one of the most commonly mispelled words and i definitely get anxious when its time to spell it! Lol.

I find it cute that the OP mispelled awkward being that it is a word i too cannot spell without looking up.

If your're like me working as a CNA floating over a large hospital and a unit manager begs you to come work on her floor and get paid time and a half the next day since no CNAs are scheduled and all you can think about is ill rather lay in my bed and...

Just a big lie from the ANA and Department of Labor, you believe that mess if you want to. Nursing shortage with almost every college and university pumping out RNs like a TV dinner and many new grads unemployed...this profession is looking not so br...

This makes me wonder how evident is discrimmination against minorities and foreign exchange students in healthcare. Do you see how quick most of you jumped on the "she must be foreign" bandwagon.

I dont know

Im a student nurse extern and was at work over night sitting for a patient that OD on heroine, cocaine and wellbutrin. He was constantly trying to get up about 15 times within 30 minutes. He continuously pulled off pulse ox sticker. In about 45 minut...

I studied real quick the night before and received a 85 on it. Its not extremely difficult

All you guys are claiming that she is possibly a foreign exchange student, but even a foreign exchange student should be able to tell that using all caps is unprofessional and you capitalize the first letter of every sentence. This is a technological...

That is CRAZY!!! I definitely would not take those three classes in the summer. Each one in its own is incredibly demanding even for a full semester.

Yes do CHECK EVERYDAY some people may drop the course for the summe i would check at least once a day and then check ocessivelvy during drop add. And when the semester starts on June 2nd....also if it help K LaserHansen or Dr. Jones. Are awesome ins...

Hi, i go to kennesaw state university. Our anatomy courses fill up fast. You must complete allyour prereqs before entering nursing or they will pull you from the program. You need to talk to the biology department and tell them your situation that yo...

Im a student nurse extern and i float throughout the hospital. It actually depends on what unit your at which defines your scope of practice. In icu the techs do everything with the nurse except for blood sugars, vital signs are not taken because eve...

No im comfortable with letting others make decisons because i know that im not knowlegeable or capable of making them on my own at the moment. Besides as a tech or assistant you have enough duties in your scope of practive to keep you busy at ALL TIM...

Turning the oxygen up to the highest with a nasal cannula is useless...u have to switch to different face masks and the oxygen needs to be hydrated. Also too much oxygen can be dangerous to the patient pco2/po2 balance which im not sure if in his ca...

Im still in nursing school and im a nursing assistant. There is so much to learn and you dont even get all of it until after youve worked a few years. I definitely wouldve told the nurse and if she didnt say anything you couldve told him to take some...

A lot has changed within the past few years with the economy continuing to turn for the worst, healthcare changes, and the demand for nurses as an effect from it. I will be graduating from nursing school with a BSN and I'm single looking to leave atl...
