  1. Nclex subjective exam

    Now now JustBeachy. Those rules they give you when you take your exam don't apply to everyone.
  2. Nclex subjective exam

    What the? I think I need to go back to school to learn to read vague and disjointed because there seems to be a lot of posts today that, in spite of my ability to read, I'm just not getting the...
  3. What would say to a nurse shadowing you

    Everyone knows that to get anywhere in the states flying Delta you MUST go through Atlanta. 😉 OP, I have decided that you only need a few phrases for your Japanese student. 1. Don't touch...
  4. I see this every day. There are multiple factors on the part of the parents including drugs, crime, incarceration, mental illness, neglect and abuse and selfishness (My new boyfriend doesn't like my...
  5. Need help

    Even if you pass your test, you were kicked out of the testing center for suspicion of cheating because you had forbidden material in your possession. Typically, when people do not follow directions...
  6. Is a physical exam required before being licensed as an LPN

    OP, are you sure an LPN is the correct career path for your daughter to reach her goal? You keep mentioning patient advocate/navigator and a university certification. You are aware that an LPN is...
  7. Is clinic nursing a dirty job?

    I hate to break the news to you but those of us rounding the corner to retirement age aren't retiring! The stock market crashed, employers cut pensions, 401K plans, and any individual retirement...
  8. Is clinic nursing a dirty job?

    Dirty as in people who come to clinic with tiny roach infestations dropping from them as you take their vitals? Or do you mean bedbugs that infest your exam rooms that require fumigation? Head lice...
  9. CML Patient interested in becoming a nurse

    Benefits such as healthcare and Rx coverage frequently change each year as employers try to cut costs. My benefits change every year and costs increase. I have a high deductible insurance where I...
  10. Oh yeah, sure thing. It's a little dark in here
  11. Yes. I'm still in the fridge holding my breath waiting to be rescued. The cold has helped me slow down my brain's need for oxygen. I don't think it was getting much anyway. Did you know that when the...
  12. What code would one use if the asphyxiation was due to being trapped in a fully functional refrigerator while searching for a midnight snack (healthy, of course) due to an acute drop in blood sugar...
  13. Do I NEED to get my BSN?

    Call around to various pediatric offices in your area and speak with the office manager or nurse manager. See what the requirements usually are for new hires. This will give you some
  14. Yes, it will have subcodes. Bitten by a pig. (ICD11code) + .a Brown pig .b white pig .c spotted pig 1. White with black spots 2. Black with white spots 3. Patchy unknown color Pig weighed: .1a piglet...
  15. Libertarian Healthcare

    Methinks we're being played. Enough mumbo jumbo for
  16. Libertarian Healthcare

    Now I'm confused. In your first post you said you were a libertarian nurse. So you're not a libertarian but a libertarian nurse? You're only libertarian when it comes to your views about
  17. Feeling Very Discouraged

    I'm not sure why the hostile attitude on your first posts but you just scored the trifecta for personal insults. (Angry nurse, eat their young, and hope you'll retire soon). You left out not wanting...
  18. why do many MAs and CNAs call themselves nurses?

    I hope not. If someone tries to make me, I swear I'll get a note saying I'm severely allergic to them and can't be seen with one on my head. If that doesn't work, I'll start a campaign to make the...
  19. What's the Best Place for an RN to Move to?

    If you are looking for acute care peds, then you may be somewhat limited where you go because many areas do not have pediatric facilities. Teaching is another profession that in some areas, even with...
  20. You are correct and this is where it is coming from. I also believe Medicaid reimbursement may be affected by this. Our institution has already built pain scales and classifications of pain (mild,...
  21. If anyone else is getting an error message when they try and register, let tech support know. They were very good getting back with me trying to solve the issue. Thanks again for the generous
  22. Informational interview

    That's a lot of personal information to ask of a stranger over the Internet. Have you tried contacting your school to see if they could introduce you to a few of their graduates? Maybe if 2 friends...
  23. New grad preferred over experienced RN

    I went through orientation with nothing but new grads and I had over 18 years of ICU experience. It didn't bother me. That's who got hired along with me and we were all there to learn about the way...
  24. New grad preferred over experienced RN

    I'm lost. So your "fellow orientees" (the other people who are new going through orientation with you) were "there" (where?) with new graduates and you want to know what you did wrong? I think it's...
  25. Being Sued / Losing License

    I think what she was trying to tell you is that it would be unusual for a PA (Physician's Assistant) to be under the jurisdiction of the board of nursing. Boards of nursing govern nurses, sometimes...
