    Lazy patient

    PeekaPooh replied to Katie622's topic in General Nursing

    What if they're physically and cognitively capable of cleaning themselves up but decided to not to? You did all the things you could like educate, coach, set them up, compromise, etc. Let's assume...

    Feeling defeated as a bedside nurse

    PeekaPooh replied to wsunurse14's topic in General Nursing

    I agreed with the above responses. Something is fishy about the unit/hospital that you are at when you said "I was the most senior nurse there (only on my own for 4-5 months)." This sounds really...

    New RNs making more than experienced RNs

    PeekaPooh replied to Brittanytaylor04's topic in General Nursing

    Yea, I would find another job if they are not being fair about it. That is a huge difference in pay and it's really unfair to you. It happened to me in the past; I just kept my calm, and resigned...

    Gloves at all times?

    PeekaPooh replied to Tweety's topic in General Nursing

    I shouldn't have said I wear gloves 100% of the time (although it feels like it); it should be like 80% of the time. I agreed with you :). It is why I try not to touch public things unless I have...

    Lazy patient

    PeekaPooh replied to Katie622's topic in General Nursing

    Oh shoot, I misread the OP post. I was reading it as cleaning up the mess they make, like trashes and stuff. I guess I was too tired haha. But yes, in this case... educate, reinforce education,...

    Gloves at all times?

    PeekaPooh replied to Tweety's topic in General Nursing

    I wear gloves 100% of the time when I have to interact/touch anything physical (patient, furniture, keyboard, mouse, bed rails, tables, chairs, etc) in the patient's room. I don't trust the...

    Lazy patient

    PeekaPooh replied to Katie622's topic in General Nursing

    If the patient is able to clean up and chooses not to, then It's up to you to clean it up or not really. If you don't clean it, then your CNA, another RN, or the house keeper will have to in the end....

    Med/Surg or ED?

    PeekaPooh replied to night_owl_rn's topic in General Nursing

    Oh, if that is the case then yea, the m/s position will probably benefit you more. As an advanced practice provider, you will be in a leader position similar to being a charge nurse. It's a better...

    Stood up for a phone screen

    PeekaPooh replied to bluescrubs's topic in General Nursing

    Give them another chance, wait for their response/reason from your email. Sometimes, things happen unexpectedly in life, who knows? Besides, what have you got to lose since you are a new grad who's...

    Med/Surg or ED?

    PeekaPooh replied to night_owl_rn's topic in General Nursing

    You already had 4 years of experience in the ED, but was it a trauma center also? If not, then I think the trauma center will expose and provide you with new experiences... something that you haven't...

    Got the "good" pop up and failed. #PVT

    PeekaPooh replied to NurseJaz08's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    The reason why there are so many posts with the PVT working is because people who passed the test are happy, so they come back here and post about it. As for most of the people who have failed, they...

    Hello everyone, Has anyone done the application for Grossmont college in San Diego, for the ADN program? If so, do you know if the official transcripts need to be sent to the nursing department or the...

    PeekaPooh replied to Dre2416's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hey, I got an overal gpa of below 3.0. I graduated with a degree and my overall gpa was only 2.7. I got As and Bs on the prereqs and 85% on the TEAS

    PeekaPooh replied to hopeless romantic's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hello, when you study for the science section, you need to study around the practice questions and topics too. Don't just try to memorize the stuff that are given to you. For example, the practice...

    PeekaPooh replied to Crystal360's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Accelerated BSN program vs 'regular' BSN program?

    PeekaPooh replied to aheadofthegame's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm sorry, I forgot that you already have an AA degree. I do not know if financial aid affect an AA, only know it will for BS and BA and up. Regardless, take those nursing prereqs whenever you can,...

    Accelerated BSN program vs 'regular' BSN program?

    PeekaPooh replied to aheadofthegame's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would say try and get into the BSN program if you can because you don't want to waste time, energy, and effort (you will get burnt, if you know what I meant). If you don't make it, then use the...

    94%! I hope you're not applying to the school that I am because that would decrease my chances of getting in . You're too
