  1. What do you guys do the day before your exam?

    I still studied..hehehe..Not that I was cramming but I just want to fill in my anxiety. I have read and heard that a lot of people do relaxation the day prior the exam and that works for them but for me since I am a very worrisome person I just do as...
  2. I am a new RN who is a foreign graduate. I got 2 job interviews already and it seems like they want to pursue me. However, they are having a difficulty as to how they would do background check on me (I'm just a new immigrant. I have been in the US fo...

  4. The Nclex-Rn and the Pop up

    Hi all. I took the exam today at 1pm. I didnt sleep well last night cause I was so nervous and I think I 'coughed' all my nervousness out already that I felt numb before my exam. Honestly, my mind was blank. It was as if all the stuff I have read no...

  7. Taking too soon?

    hi kim28-- Congratulations :) That's a job well done. Ashley-- yeah Ive read that somewhere, and that worries me a bit. I graduated in June 2009, so it's been 2 years for me and up to now I've never practiced nursing. I'm a little anxious about it. E...
  8. Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia

    Hi there. I think it's because PCP is not really a grave type of Pneumonia unless you are really immunodepressed. I have read somewhere that like E.Coli, there are already some PCP within bodies of healthy individuals and that the time signs and symp...
  9. Running out of time for NCLEX prep?

  10. I Feel Like I Failed

    hi there :) Have faith in your self. If you did all that you think you can, you prayed to God all that you need and you got the good pop up, I think you did great. I have yet to hear/read that 'good pop up with fail mark' because almost all of the pe...
  11. Liver biopsy post-op and R-side lying

    Hello there. I think that in any event that bleeding is a possibility, one of the most important intervention would be compression/putting pressure to the vessels damaged so the bleeding will be minimized whether it be a simple wound, a gun shot etc....
  12. Leg cramps = Blood clot?

    I think you are right :) Specifically since your patient is a post op TKR client, the risk for blood clot formation is increased. Blood clot causes obstruction. Obstruction causes impaired blood flow which produces ischemia. Ischemia then makes use o...
  13. Two questions about safety

    hi there :) my answers for your question 1.) OP's question number 1 does not mention any facts regarding the client's disease. The situation just says these points.... -that the client is obese -that the client wants to urinate -that a special lift ...
  14. any tips on passing the Nclex?

    Hi! I am taking the exam next week too. Though I am sorry for your friend, I suggest, try to differentiate yourself from her/him. Failing the exam does not have a Domino effect, so try to lighten up. Put all your efforts into what you are studying ri...

  17. Here's a Question I don't Understand...

    I think the reason why the answer is B is that it is stated there that the client has Breast and Lung Cancer and has been undergoing Radiation and Chemo. Therefore, it is anticipatory that the client will have a disturbed eating pattern (due to nause...
  18. Two questions about safety

    my answer for 1 would be B- the client is obese as stated, so lifting him/her may jeopardize the RN. Getting the help of an aide won't guarantee that no one will be hurt in the process. So I think, for the safety of all just let the patient wait for...
  19. 2 questions about management of care

    My answer for number 1 would be D As I have understood, being a patient advocate also means fostering patient wellness by promoting independence. By educating the client how to administer his/her medication, you are making him/her in charge of his/he...

  23. Dumb question....but help please?

    hi there :) hmmmm option number 3 cause may seem like an answer to PREVENTION question. However, I think option number 3 is not technically safe for a patient. If the client is going to take bananas with salt substitute then Hyperkalemia which is a ...
