    Ahh I'm going numb with all of this! I just want to scream! I am in the same boat as the others who are recently admitted or already in a masters degree/NP program. When I graduate in 2014-2015 will I...
  8. Best Pre-FNP RN experience

    I think an ER or immediate care/urgent care clinic would be invaluable experience for anyone trying to pursue FNP. Though I think if you are working on medsurg or something and you have the time to...
  9. Almost a year in and more scared than before

    Im almost 2 years in and I'm still scared, and personally I don't think any nurse should be totally comfortable unless they have been working 5+ years or more. Honestly, there is SO much to learn...
  10. how do you study AFTER you get your license?

    I look through my ATI books from time to time; at least the ones r/t the unit in which I work so all cardiac diseases, procedures, meds. Just review it from time to time and go over hospital policies...
  11. Wondering about my current situation

    Not necessarily. All units are different, all hospitals are different. While you may have loved PP at the hospital you had clinicals at, you might hate it at a different hospital. You aren't in a bad...

  16. Am I expecting to much from my nurse??

    The nurses should have no excuse not to help, especially if they are sitting/standing around and talking amongst each other. You said you spoke to your UM, is there anyone else you can speak with, a...
  17. I agree with the rest! If they ask, you can say you wanted something a little different, time for a change. You can then gear your questions during your interview with the change you are looking for,...
  18. Am I expecting to much from my nurse??

    Yikes. It seems like they are extremely busy
  19. Am I expecting to much from my nurse??

    Wow, that sounds pretty rough! Are the nurses also running around as much as you are? I'm sure they have a lot to do in the morning before lunch too, prep patients for surgery, admissions,...
  20. WOW. That facebook thing is so bizarre. What you said isn't even bad, it reflected how you felt which is NORMAL for a new grad in your position. You weren't doing anything unethical or giving away...
  21. Did you leave soon after your "One Year"?

    I am still in my first hospital job, I've had other jobs prior to build experience to even get into this hospital (flu shots, office rn, ambulatory surgery..) Finally got a hospital job in not such a...

    Poop used to bother me so much in nursing school; I never thought I would get over it but you know what it did. It doesn't phase me, I get excited to help my CNAs clean my patients! Sure I still don't...
