  1. Scope of practice-LPN

    RadBSN posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Does anyone have a good way to remember what RNs can and can't delegate to an LPN and in general what their scope of practice is? I have a good sense of what an NA can do, but since the hospitals I've...

  3. Scope of practice-LPN

    RadBSN replied to RadBSN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Maybe the double negative is confusing me, but if you're saying "don't delegate what you can't eat" then you should delegate evaluation, assessment,

  4. Scope of practice-LPN

    RadBSN replied to RadBSN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I don't understand what you mean by this, clearly I won't delegate something that I wouldn't be able to evaluate, assess or teach. But, what can an LPN do? NCLEX-this is in the NCLEX forum, I'm taking...

  5. Study mode in Saunders

    RadBSN posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Has anyone else noticed that Saunders gives questions in the same order in Study Mode? I was trying to just do a bunch of random Pharm questions and noticed that I'm going through the same questions I...

  6. Which path should I choose?

    RadBSN replied to xxbrianna's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    If I were you I would stay! There were several students who applied right out of undergrad to my program and enjoyed it. If you're not worried about wasting time, are enjoying college currently and...

  7. Study mode in Saunders

    RadBSN replied to RadBSN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I like the NCLEX 4000 study mode, you can select the number of questions you want and then go through that number of questions and it will let you go back over the ones you got wrong at the end. If I...

  8. Study mode in Saunders

    RadBSN replied to RadBSN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Ugh, how annoying! I did try typing in a number into the little box and you can skip to a certain question # so I figure I will just keep track. Luckily I wrote down that I did 120 Pharm questions...

  9. Do I study Content or do I go straight into questions: (Using Exam Cram book btw)

    RadBSN replied to aaaa's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I broke the content down into sections and am doing questions on specific content and then going over the stuff I feel less comfortable with. I agree it is overwhelming! I took a couple general tests...

  10. B-Blocker info in Saunders

    RadBSN replied to MaroonTX's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Good catch! I didn't notice that, but I have noticed a few things in Saunders that have made me go Actually, if you look in the thyroid section they talk about beta blockers being anti-thyroid meds...

  11. Standard Precautions?

    RadBSN replied to helppassnclex's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Because it's an opportunistic infection that takes over the lungs of immunocompromised people. It's normally found in the environment and wouldn't cause a problem in the lungs of a healthy

  13. ATI: best study program available?

    RadBSN replied to Walker.Abb's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I didn't like ATI when I was in school, but am finding it helpful now that I'm studying. I think that the ATI books are set up way better than the Saunder's book. People who graduated before me also...

  14. Hooters as Job History...Could this hurt my chances of getting a job?

    RadBSN replied to AMD88's topic in Nursing Career

    I agree with the poster who said to list it if it was longer than 6 months. You're competing with some applicants who have no job experience at all so knowing that you could hold a job is a good...

  15. Just talked to a nurse- I feel so down & anxious

    RadBSN replied to StudentNrseMcFarland's topic in General Students

    I felt the same way when I got my flu shot from a May grad of a nursing program down the road from mine. She was doing a DNP program and giving flu shots because she couldn't get hired as an RN. I got...

  16. When to start studying for NCLEX-RN?

    RadBSN replied to MissCaribeNrsingStud's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm confused, I don't think you can sit for the NCLEX before you've completed your nursing program. I wouldn't take a review course until I was done with school. They are typically offered frequently...

  17. I passed with 18 Select all that apply!

    RadBSN replied to DisneybearRN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    oh wow! 18!!! Congrats on passing. A friend said she had 7 SATA and 5 audio

    RadBSN replied to guest135581's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I gave myself 3 weeks. I studied last week Mon, Tues, Weds am and Friday. This week I'm studying TWTh and maybe Friday. I might do some questions right now since I'm home doing nothing! I have a...

    RadBSN replied to guest135581's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I'm using my own RadBSN study plan! They gave us a 3 week one at school and I kind of based mine off of that. Week 1 was Med-Surg and Pharm, Wk 2 Peds & Psych, Wk 3 Leadership & Maternity....

  20. ATI NurseLogic

    RadBSN posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I swear I just got dumber after listening to ATI's NurseLogic Critical Reading module. I can't believe I wasted almost an hour on that thing. It seriously gives you a tutorial on basic test taking...

  21. ATI NurseLogic

    RadBSN replied to RadBSN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Yeah, I'm using the Silvestri book too and then NCLEX 4000 for questions. I've heard that the questions from ATI were helpful for people in previous graduating classes. I think I'll just use the...

  22. Need quick advice re job interview!

    RadBSN replied to MJB2010's topic in General Nursing

    Go! I went in to a scheduled job interview on one of our snow days (same situation, in an area that never snows) and one of my interviewers didn't show up so they let me have another interview on a...

    RadBSN replied to guest135581's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Right there with ya! I purposefully didn't give myself a lot of time to study because I knew I would procrastinate. So now I'm on Day one of my 3 week study plan. I got some stuff done, but I'm a...

  24. Best way to deliver resumes

    RadBSN replied to JeanettePNP's topic in First Year After Licensure

    If it's online I'll submit it online, because that's how most of the info is organized these days. However, I would consider taking my resume to the nurse manager of the floor I am applying to...

  25. do we really need to study?

    RadBSN replied to LaMorLPN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I wonder how many people tried to pass without studying though! I know some people who didn't do a lot of content review, but did a lot of practice
