:yeah: Annoying and ridiculous.. Very nice... Keep it coming!!!

Vit A is also good for wound healing, Vit E is beneficial for the skin, however, both are fat soluble and if taken in excess can be toxic. Vit C is water soluble and wouldn't hurt. Not that this is the reason vit a, or e aren't usually ordered. Befor...

I didn't call anyone selfish or a bigot.. I said his comment was rude...Like I told someone else, I am not here to make enemies. Sorry for giving my honest opinion of his post, maybe I took it too personal because of everything i've been through. Ju...

A 93 yr old lady who was a sundowner would always want to ho home after 6pm. She always asked if I knew what time the bus was passing by. I tried explaining that it was too late for the bus and that she had to stay for the night (never mind telling s...

The nurses figured out how he managed to do it... I only worked every other weekend and my job was to do the meds (we call it here medication aides) so I just used to mind my own business passing all the meds.

I wasn't a nurse yet, but believe it or not, we once had a confused male pt managed to deflate the balloon first and pull his foley out. He didn't know what was going on, but I thought it was smart of him...

Vitamin C... It is sometimes ordered to be giving with Zinc for a few weeks for tissue healing.

one won't make you puke.. we'll stick with the beer then. just playing, i'm not a drinker. :redbeathe

I enjoy AN also.. Sometimes my daughter asks me, mommy what are u laughing about? And I try explaining but only nurses would understand and find it funny. XTXRN is one of my faves..

:yeah: Too funny...

Cardiacnurse, I think 100-150 before going to bed is a lot, especially if you read ALL the rationals which I highly recommend. Why don't you try another technique. I don't know what your schedule is like but if you work in the morning, on your days o...

Lisa, I can't imagine how you feel. It must be frustrating but you need to start by refocusing. Start of by getting a good night sleep. Make a list of your weak points and also why are you NOT answering correctly? Why did you answer correctly? Are u ...

I am not here to make enemies. The way he expressed himself was rude, maybe not to you. He doesn't sound bad to you, then I respect your opinion. When I read his reply the only thing I thought of was my mother going to an appointment and not being a...

I have to admit that if you come well prepared to clinicals, follow the unit's rule, look up what you don't know, ask questions, have a positive attitude, and most important BE PRODUCTIVE then you should have no problem. I already gave some advice in...

ok, how about you teach me good, safe nursing practice and i'll get you a blue moon and a green sun along mixed together "sunrise tequila". is that a deal? nothing like learning from the experienced!:igtsyt:

ruby, i'll buy you a beer or two if you teach me some of your skills!! :cheers:

This description is not only for people that feel entitled, but I will not argue. It sounds racist and rude. "My country, My language"

If you are talking about the decision tree, yes, I found it difficult for everything even Kaplan. I hardly used the tree. When I started studying for the NCLEX I promised myself not to go crazy using different books. A friend of mine gave me an INCR...

Royal Prince, It is sad to know the way you feel... My father and I came to YOUR USA less than 20 yrs ago, my mother joined us 11 yrs ago. I DO NOT have an accent at all, but my parents DO NOT speak YOUR language. It is not because they are ignorant ...

As long as you follow the unit's rules, you shouldn't have a problem. For example leave a note whenever you take a chart, do not sit around, offer to help, be friendly and smile. Have a positive attitude towards the staff, remember you are a visitor ...

Iamblessed2011, Your scores are perfectly fine. My highest score was 72% on a good day, lowest 50%. I passed the NCLEX with 75 quest. The MOST important part is for u to read ALL the rationals, even the correct ones, and to keep on practicing until t...

Congratulations!!! The trick really works!!! The anxiety that you feel is normal until you see the word PASS. Good luck in your new career!!! :hug:
