  2. How to work while in nursing school?

    I think you are going to my school, because i recognize your name as one i have responded to before. Anyway, if you are, it is totally doable to work while in school. The schedule is pretty random, so...
  3. Please stop mentioning your stress incontinence during every lecture. I have no idea how it relates to pneumonia or hepatitis and cannot imagine why on earth you thought it was appropriate to say...
  4. I do have to agree with other posters. I do not believe that your husband is being inappropriate to put your families fiscal stability ahead of your dreams. That is kind of what you have to do when...
  5. Law and Order: SVU = studying.

    I did check out that site. I immediately checked out the lung transplant episode. A pair of lungs hanging out in a box magically staying alive with no fluids... I dont think
  6. Law and Order: SVU = studying.

    At least Once a week, I read something for class and realize that i already know it because of SVU! Anyone else notice this? Example: Misoprostol should not be used in women who are pregnant or may...
  7. Law and Order: SVU = studying.

    I put in all my IVs at a 90 degree angle. You mean to say this is not
  8. Law and Order: SVU = studying.

    What was I thinking? Of course Richard Belzer will do it! And I will walk down the aisle to the theme song. I am so glad we got through our first
  9. Law and Order: SVU = studying.

    Only if we can get Mariska Hargitay to
  10. Law and Order: SVU = studying.

    That guy was ridiculous. He would have gotten away with it too if it weren't for those meddling detectives. You guys brought up a great point that SVU will be helpful in my Psych rotation. Now i will...
  11. Epi for all?

    Thanks for responding! I am floating, so I had never been in this office before. When I started nursing school, my supervisor had given me a talk about not exceeding my "scope of practice" as a...
  12. SAD mindset of "future nurses" *sigh*

    Ha! we are on the same page then! My answer was and has always been, "Wherever hires me." I think people forget that nursing is like any industry. people getting MBAs don't think they are going to get...
  13. Nursing student wishful thinking...

    I implemented a plan last quarter with this concept that raised my test scores by almost 20 points. I set a timer for one hour. During that hour i studied, read, did NCLEX questions, w/e. then i had a...
  14. SAD mindset of "future nurses" *sigh*

    There are people in my class that believe that after nursing school, they will never touch a adult old person butt again because they are "going to be a peds nurse". I am pretty sure that is code for...
  15. The student nurse

    Please tell me that is how i will feel once i graduate!? I am dreaming of that
  16. SAD mindset of "future nurses" *sigh*

    Sometimes when I read such ignorance on my Facebook, i find myself looking over my shoulder. I am afraid someone will see that i am friends with people that speak like that! Today in class, the first...
  17. Pregnancy and dismissal from nursing school

    I think you are misunderstanding the previous statement. Caroladybelle was not saying that you should be expected to have an abortion. She is simply saying that the woman would be making the choice:...
  18. $642.00 for Titers :/

    My insurance paid too, though i was mentally preparing to fork over a months rent to pay for it. You could call your PCP and ask what codes they would bill under and call your insurance to confirm....
  19. doctor's office accessing of scripts

    I am working as a front office clerk through nursing school. I have been one for 4 years. I am glad that when i graduate i will have more respect for them than people with your world view do. Sad that...
  20. Wiping off IV ports

    The "scrub during a code" question came up in my lecture. The instructor responded with, "what is worse, an infection or death? There is your answer." makes sense to
  21. Patient care technician to LPN or RN to BSN

    I am trying to help you. If you expect help from strangers, it would be nice to proofread first. It shows respect for those that are taking the time to help you. I think you are not getting helpful...
  22. Patient care technician to LPN or RN to BSN

    a few things: 1) I see that you have asked this question 12 times already. What makes you think you will get a different answer by posting it again? 2) One period is all that is necessary at the end...
  23. Wiping off IV ports

    My instructor showed us to cap the line with the cap from the flush. That way you dont have to go get a new sterile cap. Just an idea
  24. Stopping IV infusions

    Oh, and TPN is the fluid that my instructors are always reiterating should NEVER be
  25. Stopping IV infusions

    I agree, regardless of what fluid is runing, why waste the supplies (Flushes, alcohol wipes, RN's time) to disconnect the line then restart it 5 minutes later? The CNA can easily put the pt back in...
