  1. 9/5 What I learned this week.....

    I've learned that ixchel knows way too much about a certain member. I would like to write a chapter in ixchel's book. Having been in nursing going on 35 years, each day still brings me new surprises...
  2. From the files of "You can't make this up".

    I'm not sure I will ever be able to eat sour cream or look at a cat without being totally creeped
  3. That's paralyzingly frightening. It's interesting how some medications that look alike (labeled similar, stored in the same way, etc) can have dire consequences if mixed up. It's a lot easier to make...
  4. Too scared to do the PVT!

    I wouldn't do the PVT at all. If you have the option of quick results wait the 48 hours and don't be left guessing. If you do the PVT and it says your card is invalid, or it charges your expired...
  5. Medication conflicts

    Schedule them so they don't
  6. Late on interview.

    So you called them before your interview time to tell them you couldn't find parking, then walked in 2 minutes late and they told you not to interview? It was really 2 minutes past your scheduled...
  7. Medical Assistants in the office

    The NCLEX doesn't regulate anything. It's a test but I think your point was that MAs don't have to take a specific standardized test to be an MA. There are a few certification tests where I am but...
  8. Did the PVT trick and paid the 200

    From what I've read from other CA posters, the CA BON does things on their own time frame--randomly. Whether you passed or failed will be revealed to you when the CA BON is ready. Your situation is...
  9. Narrative Incident Report

    For the contusion on the forehead...where on the forehead and what size was it noted to be? Same for the skin tear on the elbow. How big was it? Always document who you notified and when as well as...
  10. And make sure that before you hang that bag of blood that you and another approved person check patient identification/blood information to make sure everything is
  11. School Uniform Advice

    I wonder if you went into the room where the volunteers were just sitting there and said something like, "Oh ladies, thank goodness I found you and you are not busy! The clothing room is a disaster...
  12. Late bloomer ADN - Should I get my BSN?

    After over 30 years as a diploma grad, I got my BSN. Why? Because my Magnet institution made it impossible for me to transfer from my current position (which I love now, but will I always?). They...
  13. Narrative Incident Report

    Is this a question or a
  14. (8/29) This week, I have learned......

    Maybe the idea of the qrs complex immediately following each p wave was a new concept. 🎶Here a p, there a p,
  15. I paid 200 dollars for pvt

    Nothing is certain until you have your official
  16. 8/22 What I learned this week....

    I realized the problem when I read the OP again. She studied from the "Liprocotts" booklet.
  17. 8/22 What I learned this week....

    At least there is a place close to work that will serve you no matter what condition you arrive
  18. 8/22 What I learned this week....

    Eleanor Rigby!
  19. Yes on license renewal question

    It depends on the reason for your forced resignation. Big bird might not be happy and decide to further investigate the
  20. You want to be a manager for the money THEN go back to front line nursing? That makes no sense. If you already know enough to be a supervisor and be the go-to person in a facility, why would you move...
  21. Peer Interview

    Agree with chevygirl that the peer interview is a chance for both you and your prospective team members to see if you are a good fit for the unit. My unit does a lot of peer interviews. We look for...
  22. Nclex is my worst nightmare

    If you are already doing the work of an RN as you say, the NCLEX should be easy for you. If you are a nurse long enough, there will be many more tests to take along the way to maintain or advance...
  23. A voucher for $200 to waste doing the PVT so they can obsess about whether the PVT really works--and whether they really passed/failed
  24. Columbus Children's Hospital Nicotint Testing?

  25. What do you guys like to do in your free time?

    I was reading your response on my phone app and the word "stalking" and "AN" were on different lines. I had to read 3 times to realize there was no comma after stalking. Thank goodness you enjoy...
