    Overwhelmed, stressed, questioning CNA.

    EaglesWings21 replied to PeacefulHopeful's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I kind of disagree, although the PP has more experience than me. It seems as though your primary concern (other than your son) is school. 40 hours a week seems really difficult with school and a...

    Help me calculate my med surg grade..

    EaglesWings21 replied to EmilyEmily's topic in General Students

    I just want to say that #1 I love Ralph Waldo Emerson. And also, there are so many presumptions on here about this student. She asked a simple question and a simple answer would suffice. She is a...

    What sorts of Nursing Students should drop Nursing School? Am I one of them?

    EaglesWings21 replied to Vysection's topic in General Students

    My post was not to discourage you OP. I agree with everyone else above. Everyone has an asset that they can contribute to the profession. You forgot oral care? People have done way worse. Like I...

    What sorts of Nursing Students should drop Nursing School? Am I one of them?

    EaglesWings21 replied to Vysection's topic in General Students

    If what you say is true then you have already predetermined the conclusion yourself. I am just a nursing student, but I do very well in school. I DO NOT read my books all day every day. I do...

    Nursing specialty that requires minimum patient contact and best hours?

    EaglesWings21 replied to tsipareht's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I laughed too when I saw the shock of "the rapist"..lol it is therapist!!!! I want to do ER as well but trust me you will have to wipe bottoms in the ER. I volunteered in a local ER this summer as a...

    Dismissed from nursing school? Don't give up!

    EaglesWings21 replied to endji's topic in General Students

    Believe me I am happy that you are back in. That is awesome that you are pursuing your goals. What I am trying to say is that positive connotations lead to better outcomes. For example, I...

    I don't know if this is true for you but sometimes when I hear my classmates complain I wonder how much better they would do if they had a different attitude. Teaching is

    such bureaucracy... (kind of a rant)

    EaglesWings21 replied to BrooklynRN11201's topic in General Nursing

    Sorry you had to go through that ordeal..lol. I have a question for you, though. What is the child and family services check? That honestly seems kind of invasive. What if you are caring for a...

    EaglesWings21 replied to Elizabeth Renee's topic in General Nursing

    I have heard of CNAs putting in foleys and I would take up less issue with that than I would CNA's administering insulin. In my Sim Lab at school when the patient went into a hypoglycemic crisis some...

    Dr said no hope for lpn for me :(

    EaglesWings21 replied to NoWomanNoCry's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Just to give you some perspective I went to the ER recently due to a motor vehicle accident. Turns out I ruptured a bursa in my knee and so the doctor decides to treat me with antibiotics for...

    Any good "nurse" shows on tv? Netflix?

    Best day ever

    EaglesWings21 replied to missmollie's topic in General Students

    I feel that way as well.. (well maybe I am not jumping for joy on my way home). But I do feel accomplished and like I am getting it. I am actually kind of sad that yesterday was my last day of...

    EaglesWings21 replied to Sam Dh's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Please check into what stephenandrews was saying because it is scientific and to the point and when we both finish school and practice nursing we will need to understand this concept. This is a...

    Curious about how to handle this situation..

    EaglesWings21 replied to MilliePieRN's topic in General Nursing

    It is possible that she looked at the meds to be sure it wasn't like something serious that her husband needed to return right then and there. I would be cautious in telling you husband whether or...

    Need Advice... Nurse stealing non-narcotic medication

    EaglesWings21 replied to JSSCELI's topic in General Nursing

    Just a nursing student here, but saying "it is just a tylenol" really in my mind does not make the situation seem any better. How inexpensive is it to buy your own bottle of acetaminophen? It seems...

    A thank you to those who hate/hated nursing school!

    EaglesWings21 replied to AnimalRescueNurse's topic in General Students

    I am not sure if this post even needs a response because it is kind of shocking, but everything is almost a 2 way street. The instructors might forget what it is like to be a student, but on the...

    Dismissed from nursing school...fought back and won in court!

    EaglesWings21 replied to 28studentsfailed's topic in General Students

    I would not like to open up a can of worms saying this, because this is neither to offend or defend the OP. Many times in lawsuits a large basis of the argument is that a company or individual is...

    I need some serious advice it would be greatly appreciated

    EaglesWings21 replied to brie_1994's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I will agree that in some areas the BSN is preferred or even required, but where I live ASN's are getting hired frequently. Also, it is not necessarily true that if you want to become an NP you have...
