  1. Do RNs get extra pay for working with students?

    After reading this, I am thankful I have had all positive experiences in my clinical assignments so far. Med/Surg, Palliative Care, Peds, OB/Gyn, Progressive Surgical ICU, and Cardiac Step Down Unit...
  2. You are a good man Nurse
  3. 8 yrs post nursing school

    Since you applied to re-test and was accepted, your state BON must think you are qualified to test so the negative or positive opinions of others really is a non-issue. Now study, study, study! And...
  4. Taking it in the summer is a really smart idea. Good
  5. Esme Needs Your Prayers

    Honoring her requests for prayer is such a small thing compared to all she has given to AN. Prayers going up for continued healing, strength, comfort and all else needed to get well and come back to...
  6. RN forging doc's signature

    I have a feeling if it is a big deal to the doctor, you will hear about
  7. Unwanted transition

    This is a no win for everyone involved. The OP, the doctor, and the returning nurse. Imagine coming back to a job and finding out the doctor prefers that someone else was there. And the returning...
  8. My concern would be if offers from the VA are that few and far between, if you turn them down now, will there be another offer in your future? Would it be possible for you to get some help with the...
  9. failed nursing class

    I feel your pain. I just failed a nursing class. All was going great until two weeks before my final when my mom was admitted to ICU. It was touch and go with her for 8 days. It is hard to keep your...
  10. Esme Needs Your Prayers and Well Wishes

    Praying for a complete and total recovery. We need
  11. Some of Us Are Trying to Help You...

    I am a student and did not take offense to anything the OP stated. At my clinical site, there are 5 different schools with students in both ASN and BSN programs along with an LPN class. It is the...
  12. So Frustrated I Could Cry..

    Not sure what you should do, but I do feel safe in saying if you work the scheduled shift while everyone around you seems to be getting time off approved, you might as well prepare yourself for always...
  13. Spinoff thread-A or pass

    Got some A's, some B's and fell on my knees with thanks when I passed with a C for a 1/2 semester course that kicked a lot of butts at my school. Overall GPA is
  14. I feel I should not have failed this test

    If the situation is as described and you were given no conversion chart, I too would challenge this grade. I rarely think this is a good idea but if they gave you nothing to follow, I don't see how...
  15. Congratulations. I am so glad all worked out for
  16. I am thinking this is still being fought at school or there is some kind of legal action pending and the OP has gone silent because of this. Hope we find out what happened some day because this one...
  17. The OP stated that it was shared with the entire class. The OP stated that over half the class was dismissed. The OP stated that the students that remain in the program were asked if they had a copy...
  18. I wish the OP would let us know how things worked
  19. As a college student fresh out of high school (there were 64 I believe admitted to our class with 6 being true out of high school freshman) I can tell you that until this post I had never heard of...
  20. I would appeal with anything and everything I could think of that is relavent. Even state why you delayed. Is there anyone on here that has been through a successful appeal that could offer some...
  21. I can't believe I am going to say this, but this posts kinda proves another posters point on another thread that sometimes it really is best to keep your mouth shut or lie if asked. And that should...
  22. I am a little confused. Are you saying the entire class had copies of the test bank? Some admitted to it, some didn't. The ones that admitted to it were dismissed from the program and the ones that...
  23. Work hard, continue to get A's, take the B for the course, and learn from the experience. Not a pleasant experience I am sure but if that is the best outcome, accept it and go for it. The part that...
  24. I can't believe you were failed with no warning. If this was the final week of clinicals, obviously this issue did not just appear. I don't know about your program, but at mine this would not be...
  25. Father of a nursing student needs advice

    Esme12 and Keane68 sound like my mom. I wouldn't change it. I am
