  1. Nausea on the job?? Please help!

    Tuesday17 replied to NikkiJo's topic in General Students

    Nikki you were right in addressing the situation. In my school we were told, not if (we get sick or faint), but when (it will happen and how to deal with it)! They are right. Some students just...

  2. Male nurse working with female patients.

    Tuesday17 replied to andrewmiller1's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I too find it much easier to work with older patients. I am a female nursing student but sometimes I have an older gentleman who is very modest and will ask for a male nurse or aide to assist him...

  3. Male nurse working with female patients.

    Tuesday17 replied to andrewmiller1's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Very wise Contractor! Andrew always has done that and his female classmates (like me) would always be willing to help him as he would us! Nice

  4. Female vs. male nurses

    Tuesday17 replied to andrewmiller1's topic in General Students

    The best nurse is a person who has emotional intelligence, good skills and who cares and provides excellent patient care and safety. Not a gender. :-) Just like you

  5. For those in ADN programs -- how many patients do you have in clinical?

    Tuesday17 replied to RN/Mom's topic in General Students

    I am currently getting ready to graduate in a few weeks. My school in Idaho really lets the clinical instructors decide how many patients you will take care of. For example, in first semester they...

  6. I absolutely HATE it!

    Tuesday17 replied to Manepride's topic in General Students

    I am currently finishing up my RN program and these "snits" sound like some in my class. I too, would have got "your quick wit" but then again I am an older non-traditional student. The way they run...

    By the way, I appreciate y'all's comments. It inspires and motivates me to continue doing what I believe is right in my own nursing practice. Again,

  8. A Nursing Student Needs Your Help!

    Tuesday17 replied to Tuesday17's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I appreciate the comments Dawn! These past few days I worked with a patient who would not receive blood; it is their religion, their choice, and their outcome. I cannot judge nor would I try to...

  9. A Nursing Student Needs Your Help!

    Tuesday17 replied to Tuesday17's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Thanks for your comment! I too agree that the 12 hour shifts are better for patient continuity; however, I am questioning it now after working 4 twelve hour shifts (I talked my instructor into...

  10. A Nursing Student Needs Your Help!

    Tuesday17 replied to Tuesday17's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    You make very good points. After my four 12's I wasn't so fatigued that my patients did not receive good care - they DID! And yes, I agree, the patients (5/6) I had for these four days loved that I...

  11. A Nursing Student Needs Your Help!

    Tuesday17 replied to Tuesday17's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I agree. Claifying our own values is critical and not to judge others or influence patients decisions based upon us reflecting our values and beliefs in order to do so. I agree! Just getting off a 4...

    Tuesday17 replied to Tuesday17's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Clarifying our own values is critical is this profession. I agree, there are no wrong or right answer to this question. I have currently read about problems and increased safety issues regarding the...

  13. A Nursing Student Needs Your Help!

    Tuesday17 replied to Tuesday17's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Thanks for your comments. I agree on the second question, but it has always baffled me that it was brought up in first semester after the instructor made it clear she was pro-life. Only 2 of us...

    Tuesday17 replied to kht124's topic in General Nursing
