    Stoogesfan posted a topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    This question appeared on my last exam and we haven't went over it yet but I was hoping maybe someone here could help me. Is a nurse legally required to document rationale for an unusual dosage of...

  2. Med documentation

    Stoogesfan replied to Stoogesfan's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    She wasn't saying we gave a dose different than the order. She said it was like the dr ordered 0.7 mg but the common dose would be 0.5 mg and we gave the ordered 0.7 mg we wouldn't document rationale...

  3. Need help on SELECT ALL THAT APPLY QUESTIONS......

    Stoogesfan replied to arlette1031's topic in General Students

    My instructor said the select all that apply are glorified true false questions. I've been using that approach this semester and it seems to be

  5. Med documentation

    Stoogesfan replied to Stoogesfan's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    That's the exact wording on the question. I "think" it meant the dosage is unusual dose...like usually it'd be 0.5 mg and the order was 0.8 or something? I'm not real sure

  6. Loners?

    Stoogesfan replied to breezy7's topic in General Students

    I'm not very socially adept...I do fine one on one or with small groups but when I'm in a huge crowd I usually tend to keep to myself. I have gotten somewhat better since starting nursing school and...

  7. Is $18,000 overpriced for an LPN program in NE Ohio?

    Stoogesfan replied to helikias's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Stoogesfan posted a topic in General Students

  11. How do you do a study group?

    Stoogesfan replied to KLBatchelor's topic in General Students

    How do you find the time for a study group? I would really like to join one but I just can't see when I would find time to go to one. I don't live close to anyone in my program so I'd be looking at a...

  12. Did you find your part-time program to be more manageable?

    Stoogesfan replied to ASPIRING2BGREAT's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    ETA: it is very manageable. I work and have kids so the Monday thru Friday program wasn't really doable. Part time programs are very hard to find in my area and the one I attend is the only one...

    I am in a pt LPN program. It lasts 2 years, I go Tuesday's and Thursday's and every other Saturday and Sunday. The RN bridge program is the same schedule and lasts 1

  14. Good study method or too OCD?

    Stoogesfan replied to CRNBSN18's topic in General Students

    I'm so jealous of those who dont have to read the textbooks. Our instructor doesn't cover everything in the chapters and a lot of what she doesn't cover is on the test. It is an absolute necessity to...

    Stoogesfan replied to skulskcc01's topic in General Students

    I would choose d for the first one due to possible c sections and a for second one cause ice pack is usually first choice for

  20. How are your grades posted?

    Stoogesfan replied to poog's topic in General Students

    In my program our grades are left just as they are like 48/50 or 45/50 and then at the end of the semester total points earned is divided by total possible and that's your grade. If its 89.5 it's a 90...

    Stoogesfan posted a topic in General Students

    Stoogesfan replied to pat8585's topic in General Students

    When I'm done, about $25,000. There is just no way I could have paid cash for it and honestly waiting wouldn't have made any difference as once we pay for gas, groceries, insurance, etc, there just...
