    LaceElaine posted a topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I'm looking for a cute and comfortable pair of shoes for nursing school. I know it sounds vain, but I just CANNOT stand the look of traditional nursing shoes. :/ I have a pair of Nike Free Running...

  2. Scrub Alterations?

    LaceElaine replied to LaceElaine's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I bought the smallest size they offer, which is XXS. And the reason why it's so expensive is because we have different uniforms for different facilities, plus a lab coat and warm up jacket. All of...

  6. help me pls D:

    LaceElaine replied to johwen93's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Okay so my thinking is that if you don't prevent infection, and give a prophylactic antibiotic, baby is less likely to acquire HIV than if you were to only try to prevent infection and not give...

  7. help me pls D:

    LaceElaine replied to johwen93's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Well we can rule out B. if you remember the bodily fluids through which HIV/AIDS can be transmitted. D is obviously wrong. So A or C. I'm gonna take a wild guess and say C. I'm sure someone else would...

  8. Any A&P II study tips?

    LaceElaine replied to mozer92's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    For me, it was just as easy as A&P I. As the old adage goes, see one, do one, teach one. Statistics say that we learn 10% of what we read, 20% of what we see, 30% of what we hear, 50% of what we...

  9. UNMC Traditional BSN 2014 Acceptance?

    LaceElaine replied to strubes's topic in General Nursing

    Hey! Hope you're both doing well! I'm just curious if either of you have been fully admitted. I'm pretty positive I've completed all the compliance requirements plus CITI training, immunizations and...

  10. Volunteering

    LaceElaine replied to Hailbop16's topic in General Students

    My GPA wasn't fantastic (3.6). I think my 2 years of volunteer work definitely helped with my acceptance to nursing school for the fall. So YES! And even if it doesn't help at all, at least it wasn't...

  11. White Shoes for clinicals

    LaceElaine replied to jennaroo's topic in General Students

    I'm also on the hunt for cute and comfortable all-white shoes. It's actually turning out to be a bit of a challenge. So far, these are a few of my favorites: Love Puma! They don't look very comfy but...

  12. New Nurse Having Panic Attacks!

    LaceElaine replied to JCampRN's topic in Health, Stress Management

    I'm so happy to hear that! After all, as a nurse, you can't take care of others if you first don't take care of yourself! I hope you find something that works for

  13. New Nurse Having Panic Attacks!

    LaceElaine replied to JCampRN's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Same here... I've never had them before until recently. It started after a life changing event, which is common. It's scary! I suggest you get help. This is serious. If it's interfering with your...

  14. What's in Your Backpack?

    LaceElaine replied to LaceElaine's topic in General Students

    Thanks ellaballet! Great

  15. What's in Your Backpack?

    LaceElaine replied to LaceElaine's topic in General Students

    Would you say I would need a larger backpack? I've read mixed opinions. Some say to buy a large rolling bag while others say they get by with an average book back because they leave their books at...

  19. Wedding rings at work

    LaceElaine replied to studentnursemon86's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    My finance bought me a "play ring" as he calls it. It's a cheapy (but still gorgeous. He's good!) ring that can get beat up without me having to worry too much about it. I'd suggest looking on etsy....

  20. nervous

    LaceElaine replied to o cherie's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Don't be nervous. A lot of it is common sense. Focus on the skills for state testing. 2 students in my class failed because they missed things on the skills portion. I live in nebraska and we don't...

  21. need some insight on if I should become a nurse or not...

    LaceElaine replied to direwolf's topic in General Nursing

    You sound a lot like me! I've been in a similar situation. I think the bigger problem is your stress and anxiety. I know exactly how you feel. I have depression, Anxiety and panic disorders. I went...

  22. Which specialty would you like to end up in?

    LaceElaine replied to baseball mom's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Ultimately, I want to become a CNM, so I'd like to work in Obstetrics and gynecology. But who knows. I may love it, I may hate it. I'm hoping ill love it as much as I imagine I will. I guess we won't...

  23. CPR for Healthcare Providers?

    LaceElaine posted a topic in General Students

    Hello everyone! To be fully admitted into nursing school, one of the requirements is to get your CPR/AED adult, children and infant certification for healthcare providers. I've already received my...

  24. CPR for Healthcare Providers?

    LaceElaine replied to LaceElaine's topic in General Students

    My school specifically states that they will accept either one. Taking the full class is fine with me. I'd prefer to save time and money, but it's not a huge deal. Thanks the both of you for the...

  25. Am I studying too much, I know it sounds crazy!

    LaceElaine replied to Jamiek33's topic in General Students

    Great advice! I don't mean to be critical but I studied a lot more than 3-4 hours/day when I was only taking pre-reqs! That's me though. Everyone is different. Some may need 40+ hrs/week while...
