   LadyMadonna replied to Peachy720's topic in Ob/Gyn

   And you know what else??? I shouldn't have to be trained to tune out garbage I don't want to hear. It's abuse! Good material for psychological torture! We're supposed to find Britney so cute and...

4. Britney demanding background checks for her L&D nurses..

   LadyMadonna replied to Peachy720's topic in Ob/Gyn

   So I proved your point? So what? Britney Spears and the rest of her no talent ilk make me sick and I resent the heck out of seeing their mugs plastered everywhere I turn, which, by the way, is MORE...

   LadyMadonna replied to Peachy720's topic in Ob/Gyn

   Please, lady, you are taking this thread waaay too seriously. No one wants harm to come to Britney Spears or her baby no more than they want it to come to anyone else. What we have here is a venting...

8. Should there be a limit on trying to pass NCLEX?

   LadyMadonna replied to 2ndCareerRN's topic in General Nursing

   Three strikes and you're out seems to be a good rule that could apply here. I think the nursing profession would be held in greater esteem if it didn't look like any Tom, Dick and Harry could be a...

   I have to agree with you. I mean, come on, this was one of those freak accidents that no one could have predicted or prevented. People die everyday in freak accidents. Not that it makes this any...

    I know the feeling of wanting to hurry and get done. if you are going through Excelsior, no matter how fast you prepare for your tests, expect some delays on Excelsior's part. If you fail a test, you...

    In that 2.5 yrs. you were enrolled in the school though, would you not say that your experience helped you? I'm saying that it is better to have experience before you enroll in a home study program...

12. Legal Rights as a RN with DUI conviction

    LadyMadonna replied to ERRN2005's topic in General Nursing

    Since this is your second DUI, does the BON want to send you through the peer assistance program for drug/alcohol abuse? You may have heard that you can't fight city hall. I think the same thing would...

    LadyMadonna replied to honeydust29's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I know and hear of many LPN's who thought they would jump right out of LPN school and into the Excelsior program and be finished in a year or sooner. While there is no law saying you can't do this it...

14. Did you ever "neglect" a patient???

    LadyMadonna replied to Debbie_LPN's topic in Patient Safety Issues
