Brea LPN

Report it to your supervisor immediately. The suspected person should be sent home immediately. If you don't report it, You will be held accountable.

I you don't like doing nurse tasks now you never will. Now is the time you should be excited. If you don't like it now, I don't think you will 5 years from now.

LPNs know everything a RN knows but not as deep. I personally love being an LPN but i new from the first day of clinical that I wanted to work LTC.

i work ltc with 36 patients on 3-11.

miss thing needed to get her panties out of a wad, stat!

I passed out in the OR too. Idk why. I ate a good breakfast and remembered to shuffle my feet. Another student in my class passed out also. I don't think I got nauseous either because I was just watching a colonoscopy not a limp amputation or any...

every nursing facility has one or more residents like this. I just learn to do what i can for them and just deal with it.

"a nurse is a nurse is a nurse" words from my nursing school insructor

I doubt they thought ur were silly. Kidney stones are no joke.

I work in a no call in facility. If u need to call in, u have to find ur own replacement unless u or a family number are literally dying or you gotta be there.

On bad days I question y i became a nurse. One time, when I had a bad night, a resident gave me a card that read thanks for all you do. it melted my heart.

If sitting down to talk to any patient is unprofessional, I'm proud to be a great unprofessional nurse who cares about her patients.

A fast food restaurant named Krystal. They served little burgers. I worked there two years. that job taught me people skills.

My nursing instructor told us the day u stopped learning was the day u needed to get out of nursing.

Thats a good one!

story of my life!

I'm a bit shy also. It gets easier with time. You don't have to be an overly talkative person to be an awesome nurse. You just have to be able to speak up for your patient when needed. There is a thread on here called something like "Introverted N...

Don't give up! At first you will feel like that you'll never be able to get in the groove of things, but trust me you will.
