    timmedico replied to RED1984's topic in Texas Nursing

    Idk, the email seemed to want us to go to these file checks. "If you cannot keep this appointment you will have to wait for file checks on orientation day -and it takes a while, with the other...

    timmedico replied to RED1984's topic in Texas Nursing

    Yep, I got the same email, July 10th. I think I'm gonna have to wait till orientation day to do it, as I'm volunteering at a hospital on the 10th and 24th. Darn my

  3. Stuttering Stupid Nurse

    timmedico replied to pearlgarden's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I stutter at time too, especially when I'm stressed or nervous. I think what helps me most is trying to keep calm (deep breathes, etc) and talking slower. I'm sorry people were making fun, as it is...

  4. Obamacare and Mark of Beast... wrong time to be a nurse?

    timmedico replied to tarotale's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    H.R. 3200 mentioned chips implanted into already implanted medical devices such as breast implants, pacemakers, artificial hips, etc. It doesn't matter though, because H.R. 3200 never made it out of...

  5. Obama health care law upheld.

    timmedico replied to strawberryfields's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Think about it...doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out why some hate it. Who hates it? Rich hospital CEO's, doctors (who aren't so poor themselves), and members of the GOP who hate anything...

  6. Navarro ADN-RN program Fall 2012

    timmedico replied to RED1984's topic in Texas Nursing

    Thank you mom!!!!!!!!! :) It's wonderful to have this info. I would've completely left out the clipboard and what the $160 "kit" was comprised of. What were clinicals like for the first

  7. Navarro ADN-RN program Fall 2012

    timmedico replied to RED1984's topic in Texas Nursing

    Red, if you need any help with English Comp, feel free to ask. :) I made an outline template and I have papers I did that could help with the theses (the hardest part of any paper). That new schedule...

  8. Navarro ADN-RN program Fall 2012

    timmedico replied to RED1984's topic in Texas Nursing

    Even though some of us have bought all of the books, it'll be ok. :) I didn't expect to have to read Taber's Medical Dictionary cover to cover; every additional book will only help us more. That...

    timmedico replied to RED1984's topic in Texas Nursing

    RaeAnn, it probably won't let you Pm kryssal until you've posted a minimum of 15 times. 7 more posts and you'll be able

  10. Navarro ADN-RN program Fall 2012

    timmedico replied to RED1984's topic in Texas Nursing

    I don't know if they registered me because I registered myself for the classes. I'd say they probably did. It also shows what days and times we'll be doing stuff, so that helps. :) I'm not sure what...

  11. "No nurses of color....."

    timmedico replied to Queen2u's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I've met many racists who don't always know I'm of hispanic (and white) descent. I don't understand why color matters in the least...we all bleed, we all live and die, we all have the capabilities to...

  12. Is this badge holder too morose?

    timmedico replied to kayruhh's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    To each their own. :hug:But keep in mind the effects on the patient. :) It might scare some patients, but totally make others more comfortable. Then again, the attitudes of nurses is more of an effect...

  13. Scam Schools And Diploma Mills

    timmedico replied to TheCommuter's topic in General Students

    Slooooowwwww downnnnn indeed. I'm sure it sounds lovely to some....getting into a program that is very short. However, at the end of it you find out it's not accredited, so you've wasted that time and...

  14. Hospital CEO Salaries: Are The Big Bucks Justified?

    timmedico replied to TheCommuter's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    GOODNESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! $3 million??????!?!?!?!??!? Hmmm....I wonder how many nurse salaries could be taken from this... I agree to an extent with the above post. Sure, stressful jobs should pay...

  15. Oh boy, what was she thinking?!

    timmedico replied to uRNmyway's topic in General Nursing

    Good humor never hurt anybody...and this was good humor. :) In regards to all the rioting going on here, look at the facts. American teens aren't raised the same as kids in other nations. In parts of...

  16. Confused between school and preganacy

    timmedico replied to sabita143's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If possible (we don't know the entire story), make the father accountable. Guys should step it up...if they are so willing to have sex, they should accept the aftermath. Whether people "guilt" you or...

  17. "C" in A&P1 Can and should I take it again?

    timmedico replied to raspysunny's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If you do retake A&P I, do it not only to raise your GPA, but also to obtain a deeper understanding of A&P I. Maybe taking a longer course would be best? I took both A&P I and II over full...

  18. Navarro ADN-RN program Fall 2012

    timmedico replied to RED1984's topic in Texas Nursing

    RaeAnn- black nike shocks are probably fine, but i think they want the logo to not be noticeable. Black does sound better than white (I'm a guy, so the "advanced" matching and all that jazz is over my...

  19. Navarro ADN-RN program Fall 2012

    timmedico replied to RED1984's topic in Texas Nursing

    SG & Skills Performance Checklist is just a study guide for the Fundamentals of Nursing book. So if you buy the book that says "Fundamentals of Nursing 8th edition, text and study guide, then...

  20. How do you think I'm doing for a Pre-Nursing student???

    timmedico replied to keithm101's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm not sure if retaking the courses will replace the current grades...but if applicable do that. Nursing schools everywhere are very competitive; not only that, you'll need skills learned in math...

  21. Male nurse song

    timmedico replied to Scrubman's topic in Men in Nursing

    Powerful!!!!!!! As a fellow guy, it is a bit different to enter a field that is majority female. I agree with the lady you took care of, your mother would be proud!!!!!!!!!!! :hug:I hope you do well...

  22. Nurse = Critical Thinker......

    timmedico replied to RED1984's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You're very welcome! I think so too. :) Kick art's butt

  23. Nurse = Critical Thinker......

    timmedico replied to RED1984's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My A&P I AND II and Micro professors told me the same of critical thinking. I don't think struggling with art means you'll struggle in nursing school. Art is ambiguous. You might look at a red dot...

    timmedico replied to RED1984's topic in Texas Nursing

    I just saw that as well. I'll just reread and repost something close to what I did before. Prior to seeing that message, I was like WHERE DID ALL THE NEW POSTS GO? Gahhhhhhhhhhh. Let the reposting...
