  4. Finding places to put IVs

    LLL01 posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

    I've been working for almost a year now and I know this comes with time, but I still feel awful about my IV skills. I can put an IV in if the pt has really good juicy veins, but otherwise, I can't...

    LLL01 replied to LLL01's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    You should do the pearsonvue trick (or have someone else do it for you!) I couldn't wait! I am still kinda not wanting to celebrate until I officially hear, but a lot of my classmates have had their...

  12. how long after nclex until you apply for jobs

    LLL01 replied to CorcorVN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I graduated in Dec and got a job a few days later. I started orientation Jan 14 and took my NCLEX Jan 30. So you don't have to have a license number or anything to APPLY for jobs. I didn't even have...

  19. Last Semester!

    LLL01 replied to PatMac10,RN's topic in General Students

    I just took my last test of nursing school and passed! This last semester has been the hardest by far. I think it was just so much crammed into 4 short months! It also didn't help that I had to work...

  23. Is this cheating?

    LLL01 replied to BCurtis's topic in General Students

    Yes, I 100% would consider this cheating. Anytime you have an advantage on a test and whatever advantage isn't offered to everyone (ie teacher saying everyone can use notes on a test) then I could...

    LLL01 replied to JZ_RN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Aww, Eternally grateful for nurses like you. That would be the best way to describe my dad when he was in the hospital before he passed and you are right - heart of gold under the gruff exterior. Some...
