I agree about the need for stating the strengths and weaknesses of each study in the DB post. The clarified instructions that I received did not include doing the meta-analysis search so I ended up...

I'm a bit confused again with the DB posting. I looked over others' posts again, 18 of them, and only found one person who did not include the OU article meta analysis bit. I guess I will be...

I took the week 3 quiz this morning and thought the difficulty was similar to past week quizzes. For those who have not yet taken it, knowing the info on your study guide should help you a lot. I...
I'm sorry you find yourself in a position where you are not doing what you were hired to do. Hating to go to work is not a good feeling. I do think that you should be assertive and speak up,...
My grandmother spent her last year living at my mother's home and received hospice care. My grandmother suffered from end stage dementia, among other things, and the hospice nurse was fabulous. If...

Thanks for a great idea. I had never thought of asking the nurse at my kids' school if she could use a volunteer. I am going to call the school nurses' and see if this is a possibility. Thank

Checking the minority, disability, and male box? That is seriously hillarious! Hmm, maybe you are on to something. So what happens if you get an interview and you are not male, a minority, or...

I used every second to finish his exams, and I needed every second. When the time was getting lower I did have some anxiety going, which didn't help matters. Yes, absolutely do those last 5 bonus...

Finally finished the reading assignments for the week. Oh boy, that was some of the toughest reading ever and it all kind of ran together. I also completed the independent/dependent variable...

Oh GonnaAmazeYou, I so so so feel your pain. I received my RN license a year ago after graduating with an ADN. I am currently in a BSN program with about 7 more months until completion. I have been...

Just checked BB again and the DB posting has now been clarified and matches the info that cincinursemary posted. Yay, so we can now all be on the same page with this assignment! Our TA also said...

What bothers me is that this new information is not being posted to all sections, again. Grading has always been somewhat dependent on the TA you have. The TA that gave this information out will grade...

Welcome to the forum, glad you found us here. I think you'll find that we are a friendly group and are willing to help others. If nothing else we can all complain together. Many of us are finding...

I just finished the quiz. I thought it was harder than last weeks quiz but I actually got a better score on this one. (By one point) Now to work on the DB posting, which I'm actually dreading, and...

Happy Friday! Just checked and I have grades for Mod 1. Received all the points for my DB posting but lost 1 point for the lit search assignment because I did not indent the second line of my...
SoundRN7 replied to Ashley3H12's topic in Nursing Career
That totally sucks!! It is difficult enough to find a nursing job and then to have been let go because of this. I feel your pain and I wish you all the best. The only thing you can do is put on your...

Right, 2 citations/references. One can be from the textbook and the other should be from a peer reviewed journal. Also each DB response to another poster has to have at least one citation. Why is...
SoundRN7 replied to Simply Complicated's topic in Ohio University
Yep, 3 1/2 weeks, sounds good to me too. I'm not sweating this DB posting and do not feel compelled to even work on it until Friday. I've got a really positive attitude going at the moment and I'm...
SoundRN7 replied to Simply Complicated's topic in Ohio University
I toy around with this too. At this point what I need more than anything is working experience. After I get a couple years under my belt I will then again consider going to grad school. I really do...
