    QuenymamiRN posted a topic in Excelsior College

    For those that have taken the CPNE, is it really as bad as I am hearing? I am practically having panic attacks over it and I haven't even submitted my application yet. A lot of people are saying it...

    QuenymamiRN replied to monalisa lpn's topic in Excelsior College

    Its really hard to keep your motivation up in the RN program at excelsior. I recently graduated this march and got my license this June. IMO the tests are really hard but they prepare you well for the...

  9. NCLEX: Specific tasks to delegate to LPN? Charge Nurse role?

    QuenymamiRN replied to kajh20's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    LPN can suction a stable patient but on the NCLEX likely not stable so don't pick that. LPNs can do sterile wound changes and unsterile wound dressing changes. Can't do 1st dressing change after...

  10. If you think you need to call the MD, CALL THE MD!!!!

    QuenymamiRN replied to wooh's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    QuenymamiRN replied to wooh's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I agree. I am an LPN, recently just passed the NCLEX RN. I had a resident that went south. She was a DNR and the supervisior wanted to wait it out and let day shift deal with it. I ended up calling...

  13. Best study material for the NCLEX?

    QuenymamiRN replied to scm0890's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Try not to stress yourself out so much. The NCLEX really is not that bad. I studied 3-4 hrs a day with Kaplan, Saunders and I did practice questions on Facebook from Pedia and ATI. I also found some...

  14. Comprehensive review books: Saunders, Mosbys

    QuenymamiRN replied to CaptScrubs13's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I used Saunders and Kaplan (the book, not the course). The questions did seem to be easy but I wouldn't say easier than NCLEX. To me the NCLEX seemed pretty straight forward and I feel that Saunders...

  16. NCLEX SATA

    QuenymamiRN replied to sgray8071's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    When you take the NCLEX they are very clear that you do not get partial credit. You either get the question right or wrong. There is also no such thing as a certain set of options always being...

  17. Anyone gotten PVT popup and failed?

    QuenymamiRN replied to nursebrittanyb's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I think the only time PVT is wrong is when you have taken the exam the maximum number of times your BON allows before they make you take a refresher

    QuenymamiRN replied to kajh20's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    New RNs can do anything an experienced RN can do. They will try to trick you with new grad and experienced, just ignore that. I highly recommend you get lacharity PDA book. That will help you with...

    QuenymamiRN posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs
