    Is your nursing instructor tough?

    Soliloquy replied to Brian's topic in General Students

    My old instructor for Med/Surg was hellish! But I grew the most under her instruction. I had to tell her, though, that rolling her eyes at me and belittling me was not an effective way of helping me...

    What is the one thing that turns your stomach?

    Soliloquy replied to FDW630's topic in General Students

    Soft FECES and VOMIT...from adults! The smell of feces and vomit gets to me and I think it's because I witnessed a nurse once have a patient's feces splash up into her eyes and what she had to go...

    What Do Hospitals Look At For New Grads?

    Soliloquy replied to Soliloquy's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    You're kidding. I took out the breakdown of what I did IN each clinical rotation trying to condense it and that took it down to a page and a half. Here's my system so far: Name, Address, Contact Info...

    What Do Hospitals Look At For New Grads?

    Soliloquy replied to Soliloquy's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    That's where I'm getting confused. If I leave out my clinicals and only put in the externship, relevant education, certifications (CPR BLS, PALS), Computer skills, and volunteering, all of that comes...

    What Do Hospitals Look At For New Grads?

    Soliloquy replied to Soliloquy's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Is it okay to exceed a page? I put in my Externship and the recent (last 4 years) of volunteer experience I had. But for work, I omitted things like Administrative Ass't and Working in the Drama...

    What Do Hospitals Look At For New Grads?

    Soliloquy replied to Soliloquy's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I don't know! Basically, she said don't put in where you did your clinicals because a lot of places don't really consider that "experience" and it just takes up space on your resume. Say how many...

    networking while at clinicals

    Soliloquy replied to clearblue3's topic in General Nursing

    We never get to meet the managers in our clinicals. Or at least, not in mine. We have very little interaction and while I tend to have very good relationships with the nurses, I never really know who...

    Anyone here who hate the holidays?

    Soliloquy replied to Brian's topic in Nurses Rock

    I like MY idea of the holidays. Not the rushing around trying to get everything and buy everything during a sale. That's just Economic BS as far as I'm concerned. But just the idea of relaxing, having...

    Resigning...again.

    Soliloquy replied to Caffeine_IV's topic in General Nursing

    Well then I don't see you as owing them at all. They had a need and for the time you fulfilled that

    Resigning...again.

    Soliloquy replied to Caffeine_IV's topic in General Nursing

    Even though I don't know the reason they chose to accept you back, I disagree with Ruby Vee. If you're miserable, don't stay because you're affecting yourself and, in my opinion, others when you're...

    Hesi: I Feel Like I Need a Miracle..

    Hey AZmom, I have a book and I do questions. I'll take your advice and apply it. I have the Hesi again in a

    These two idiots need to have their nursing licenses revoked

    Soliloquy replied to guest416560's topic in General Nursing

    Like really? Really??? Above and beyond disgusting. To subject the patient you're caring for to that kind of behavior in order to fulfill a voyeuristic/exhibitionistic relationship is disgusting. And...

    What do you think about the media portrayal of nursing?

    Soliloquy replied to sierrag's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I never cared much for medical shows so I was often unaware of what went on there. My peers watch it and talk about it and stuff but when I watched it just seemed fake. The nurses there just seem...

    Nurses, how are you going to vote? 2012 US Presidential Election

    Soliloquy replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, I heard a lot of people did nOT like "him" in MA. I never really knew why and should probably look it

    Confessions Of A Nurse With Poor Interpersonal Skills

    Soliloquy replied to TheCommuter's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    My preceptor was like this but she was great! It wasn't skill sets per se, but her personality, expressiveness, and just her overall demeanor took care of everything else. She knew what she was doing,...

    Question: Soon to be New Nurse and A Job

    Soliloquy replied to Soliloquy's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Hey echo, I feel like if they can handle it, then so can I. I just have to learn. I'm just not sure about administration because my encounters with some of them so far have not been...good. With one...

    Question: Soon to be New Nurse and A Job

    Soliloquy replied to Soliloquy's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Yeah, I'm really struggling. Honestly, I don't like the way the program (externship) is being run at this time. It's really disorganized and that's probably my major deterrant right now. That an...

    The Disrespect Of Nurses

    Soliloquy replied to TheCommuter's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I don't feel like that's entirely true, though at times I feel we can spend more time gossiping and complaining than addressing the issue head on. ? We get "brainwashed" in nursing school and even in...

    Help... Should I stay in this program?

    Soliloquy replied to meatballgirl's topic in General Students

    Nah, don't chuck it. You're already this far and many nursing schools don't take your credits, want you to start over in their program. If you're not comfortable with your grade, go back and study for...

    Assuming The Nurse Role

    Soliloquy posted a topic in General Nursing

    Today's just one of those days when I'm doubting my entire life. I feel down, I feel incompetent and I feel like I'm not improving. It's just one of those days when I'm looking inside myself,...

    Assuming The Nurse Role

    Soliloquy replied to Soliloquy's topic in General Nursing

    "Type A"...did I put that in my original post? lol You're right, I'm not very "Type A" at all and I guess that's why at times I ask myself if I'm in the wrong field. I like learning the skills, the...

    If you weren't a nurse, what would you have become?

    Soliloquy replied to wooh's topic in General Nursing

    It sounds so cool though.lol At some point, I'm hoping to reach a point where I can work and live off a Part time schedule as a Nurse and be able to spend my other days doing other things to...
