  7. New graduates with no clinical skills.

    maracuya replied to maracuya's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm sorry but I also disagree with this. A CNA does a lot of things, but CNA's are not licensed to perform a lot of the skills that an RN would do, such as setting up an IV or a foley cath, just to...

  13. Pre-test anxiety or just disorganized?

    maracuya replied to maracuya's topic in General Students

    I know, we didn't have whole days to study last semester either. I guess that's a good thing. I've thought about going to the library but at school there's too much people and noise, and at the...

  14. Does Nursing School=No Life Literally?

    maracuya replied to Marsha238612's topic in General Students

    I hope you're right and I do hope I get the hang of this soon. I did get 90+ on my first two exams, but it was rush rush rush, seems they just want us to learn enough to pass the NCLEX and the exams,...

  18. Why do people belittle others to make themselves feel better?

    maracuya replied to maracuya's topic in General Students

    zoe92 - You are so right, I guess we forget to consider that each person has their own load to bear regardless of age, marital, or job status. She was probably just trying to justify herself for not...

    maracuya replied to maracuya's topic in General Students

    Thanks everyone, I know I shouldn't pay attention to anyone and stay focused on my goal, but sometimes people just get to you. I do believe she is jealous. I don't understand why, if it bothers...
