You can do it on your own! You don't need parents. It's nice but not necessary. In college I would often become envious of my friends who had school paid for by their parents. Now I realize I'm better off. I've learned valuable life lessons early in ...

Going to 205 does not mean you failed. Take a break and try to relax. pay for the quick results. Unfortunately every Nclex is different so I can't tell you why the questions looked the same. The waiting is the hard part but we have all been there bef...

Sleep!!! Your brain doesn't work well when you are using all your energy to stay awake.

Sorry to hear you failed! This happens to some of the best nurses. I used a empty visa gift card when I did the PVT so I did not risk the $200.Maybe that will work for you next time. Good luck!!!

If you love seniors CNA maybe a great option for you. CNAs obtain vital signs. Help seniors with tasks of daily living such as showering, dressing, eating and everything you do for yourself you will be assisting the client do. I mean EVERYTHING. I us...

I would have done the same thing.I refuse to assess my loved ones. I have too many emotions regarding my loved ones I couldn't possibly think clearly. Besides for insurance reasons I would want an accurate medical evaluation the same day of accident ...

I would report this immediately. Even if it's nothing this was certainly a near miss that needs to be reported perhaps to help you in the future and possibly other employees.

What is the point of your response? To be rude? This response does not answer or help anyone. If you have nothing nice to say then say nothing at all.

Yes me too! I'm skeptical that this is even a possibility.

Staffing in a lot of ALFs depend on the level of need of the residents and if they are private pay or not. You could have 30 residents that are level one fully independent and staff just does their laundry and makes their meals. ALF and SNF are ver...

Unless these programs are through a community college I would careful. There were few legit online LPN to RN programs last time I checked. When I went from LPN to RN I had a lot of clinical hours to complete this I think is why the LPN to RN programs...

In high school i did horrible! Then a few years passed I went to college obtained a biology degree then my LPN and now I'm a RN.I ran in to someone from high school recently who asked what I did after school I told her about my accomplishments. I ask...

I work with a talky nurse as well. When she's distracting me I ask her for help with something. This seems to do the trick because then she gets distracted with the task:) I really don't know how she finishes everything and still finds time to chat:)

Love it!!!

Have you tried to contact DHS? Perhaps there are classes or programs. Idk, I'm a Oregon nurse and have worked with Oregon nurses who have had DUIs. There must be away. This is more of a legal issue though. We can't answer legal questions. Best of luc...

I graduated from there in Aug. I transferred my LPN nursing classes in and pretty much all my gen ed classes. Carrington embeds the general education classes throughout the program. If you have already taken Ap alegebra ect. Then these will transfer ...

Sorry to hear of your struggles. Don suggested some great study tips. You need to find your weak areas and review content in those areas. Also go through every wrong answer on Kaplan and study the rationales. I often found I forgot stuff and needed a...

Abcde it took me a minute at first I want to start signing the ABCs not sound out (Abcde).

These are the two main reasons why became a RN. I don't think this makes me less of a nurse. I'm still great at my job! I didn't have a calling to do anything else so why not make good money and help people:)

I felt Kaplan was a lot harder than nclex. My Qbank scores also went down before my test.I found qtrainer 6 and 7 to be helpful. I passed with 75 and I was sure I was going to fail.

I did the NEW trick and got the famous our records indicate..... Good pop up :) within 24hr my RN license was posted on the BON I used a old visa gift card just in case I was falsely charged 2 people I know of did this as well and they received a goo...

Portland is a great place to be a nurse! It may take you awhile to find a great job but the pay is good In the NW:)

My work the med techs can both disconnect and administer the meds through the continuous feed Maybe this is a state board question it probably varies

Dust yourself off and get back up:)

Congratulations nurse! Thank you for your post:)
