    RN1485 replied to RN1485's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I probably should've posted this under the graduate nursing student info now that I think about

    Simple Nursing course turning out to be a complete nightmare.......help!

    RN1485 replied to Nursing2102's topic in General Students

    This is my first semester too. We have 6 tests in 2 months and they cover about 20+ chapters each and then a cumulative final in December (we break for clinicals, thank God)...we don't get a study...

    Study Tips HELP!!

    RN1485 posted a topic in General Students

    I'm a first semester nursing student and I need help with some study tips. We have had 6 tests so far, and I thought I was doing well-made 83, 85, 91, 79, 92, and then 73! Anything below a 75 is...

    Hepatitis B Vaccine Question

    RN1485 replied to RN1485's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, you are right. I shouldn't have said "negative". The number value was .48 and was inconsistent with immunity. Thank you for taking the time to respond to my question. I was just curious.

    Hepatitis B Vaccine Question

    RN1485 posted a topic in General Nursing

    I'm a nursing student and as you know it is required to have the Hep B vaccine before starting the clinicals. I got the series in '93 but still needed a titer. My results were negative. I was told by...

    Obamacare and Mark of Beast... wrong time to be a nurse?

    RN1485 replied to tarotale's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Not that I think this chip thing will actually happen, but even if I were to entertain the idea that it will, it still doesn't go in line with Biblical prophecy. I grew up in a Christian household and...

    Working short

    RN1485 replied to mstearns09's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I feel your pain! I work in the memory care unit with 16 residents. Usually there are suppose to be two aids in memory care at all times. However, I was told a few weeks ago that scheduling will...

    Short Question? Medical Assistant or Certified Nurse Assistant

    RN1485 replied to Jessica5792's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Usually in a PA program you will need a certain amount of hours in patient care before applying (at least from the ones I've looked into). I would then say go for the CNA program b/c it's cheaper and...

    Maybe I Shouldn't Have Asked This...

    RN1485 replied to RN1485's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Thanks all for the advice/comments!! I now know that I should've asked HR for that info to avoid putting her in an uncomfortable position. Lesson learned. Thanks again!

    Maybe I Shouldn't Have Asked This...

    RN1485 posted a topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    So right now I work as a CNA at an Assisted Living Facility and I just applied to a local community college for their adn program. It's not guaranteed I will get in. If I don't, I might apply to the...

    11-7? or 7-3? or 3-11? Which ones the best shift for you?

    RN1485 replied to MzLopez4real's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I prefer 3rd! I am pretty nocturnal so it works best for me. You also don't have as many tasks to do (at least for me that was the case). You don't have to do showers or feeding. No higher ups are in...

    Calling a doctor question.

    RN1485 replied to iwashere's topic in General Nursing

    I also agree with a full introduction even if the wife answers. I think it's more professional, plus it allows the wife to tell the husband who's calling so he can decide whether or not he wants to...

    "pre-nursing" science classes vs. just getting a BSN

    RN1485 replied to turtlezoup's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    From my experience it was easier going the ADN route. I have a BA in sociology so I still needed to take a lot of pre-reqs. I looked at several BSN programs as well as ABSN (which is accelerated) and...

    Men in OB/Peds Nursing....Any thoughts?....

    RN1485 replied to Wild Irish LPN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I wouldn't want any male being in the room either if I were delivering (or giving pap smear for that matter). I know there are several male nurses/doctors who would be fully capable of taking care of...

    This made me mad when I saw it.

    RN1485 replied to netglow's topic in General Nursing

    I graduated in 2009 with a BA in Sociology and have yet to find a job that pertains to my degree let alone find a job that pays $10/hour or more. I'm a CNA now and my facility pays me 8.50! LTC and AL...

    yeah I was told today that letters would be sent out 2nd week of June for GHC, but I hear they always delay beyond when they say they're going to. Hopefully we won't have to wait too

    Concerned mother..question about clinicals

    RN1485 replied to caltripp's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Possible Career Crisis! :(

    RN1485 posted a topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA
