  1. What do potential employers really think about online BSN degrees?

    cardiacRN2006 replied to Di Deanna's topic in General Nursing

    In general, the online is the same as the in school. The exception would be those diploma mill schools. My BSN is completely online, and I am doing the exact same work as the people who take in on...

  2. Anyone know of a lpn program in az?

  3. Time expired @158 Question

    cardiacRN2006 replied to 123jeannie's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    For sure she was misinformed. I mean, you can't get 60 questions correct in a row...the NCLEX would make the questions harder and harder until you couldn't answer them. Anyway, to me, it seems the...

  4. Time expired @158 Question

    cardiacRN2006 replied to 123jeannie's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Yes, it will look at the previous 60 questions, but the PP said that you would have to get all previous 60 correct-which is wrong. Good luck OP. Let us know what

  5. Time expired @158 Question

    cardiacRN2006 replied to 123jeannie's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    6 hrs? I think you are reading way too much into these questions. Good luck, I'd hate for you to fail after all

  6. Would You Accept Swine Flu Vaccine?

    cardiacRN2006 replied to pagandeva2000's topic in Disaster Preparation

    That's a good point. I think the difference is that the MMr and other vaccines are tested and have been given for years, whereas the swine flu is new and untested or researched on a large

  7. Epinephrine Dosage - is this too much?

    cardiacRN2006 replied to NurseHotFlash's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    If he's on all those vasopressors then they need to nix the propofol. In fact, he's probably not waking up and bucking the vent at this stage. Plus, hopefully you don't have somebody on nimbex on not...

  8. Epinephrine Dosage - is this too much?

    cardiacRN2006 replied to NurseHotFlash's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I've run it at 50, 80, and even 100 mcgs. But those people were definitely on their way out. However, the recommended dose, as per our pharmD is

  9. Would You Accept Swine Flu Vaccine?

    cardiacRN2006 replied to pagandeva2000's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I'd take just about any vaccine. But if I was told I had to, then there'd be a problem. I remember when there was going to be smallpox vax at my hospital. I volunteered. After doing some reasearch, I...

  10. Foley Catheter Insertion

    cardiacRN2006 replied to sports2245's topic in General Students

    How do you break sterile technique by testing the balloon? I'm all sterile when I do that.. I've found balloons that haven't passively deflated, so I'll never not check the balloon. Leave the syringe...

    huh. I wondered what the 'bot' in googlebot

    cardiacRN2006 replied to FrankenEMT's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Aye...are more salesman, I mean, school reresentatives getting on here and defending their schools

  14. I Need RN Opinions Please.

    cardiacRN2006 replied to hannahmarie's topic in General Nursing

    Sure. Plenty of time with the old man. But, I also don't have children. I'm sure that complicates

  15. 1yr RN programs anymhere

    cardiacRN2006 replied to tchinjoe's topic in General Students

    Why the rush? Honestly, I'd take my time right now. In 2 years the economy has a better chance of being more stable than in one

  16. Debinding textbooks -- Did you regret it later?

    cardiacRN2006 replied to DolceVita's topic in General Students

    Nope, didn't regret it one bit. I kept the index and table of contents with me in my folder. I never needed to refer to any other sections, but if you had to, you could just do it later when you got...

  17. Nurses on strike-is it even possible?

    cardiacRN2006 replied to braddah's topic in General Nursing

    Amen!

  18. Nurses on strike-is it even possible?

    cardiacRN2006 replied to braddah's topic in General Nursing

    Plenty of management and PTB to cover pts. That's not a problem. Why there will never be a 100% strike is that nurses can never come together. We are too busy tearing each other down. We can't even...

  19. If most people feel they failed, how does that benefit anyone?

    cardiacRN2006 replied to kgh31386's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    For sure I think it's in people's heads. I think people overstudy even for basic tests. One time I got into a study group. Listening to the other people's notes on what they thought was important...

    cardiacRN2006 replied to ArtisticAthlete's topic in General Nursing

    I don't find most pts whiney. I find some whiney. But then again, I have real experiences to base that on. But, I'm a nurse for different reasons other than to avoid whiney people. Whiney people...

  21. True? --> "RN's Can Work 3Days/Wk And Make A Good Salary!"

    cardiacRN2006 replied to ArtisticAthlete's topic in General Nursing

    Here's the thing. It's not really about you when you are that busy. Being that busy is unsafe, and not about you 'not being bored'. Having '5 million things to do at once' isnt' fun. And among those...

    cardiacRN2006 replied to HazeKomp's topic in General Nursing

    If you look on the list, most of the people are here via googlebot or yahoo. I think a lot of the people are googling specific things, and that's it. Just a one time

  23. If most people feel they failed, how does that benefit anyone?

    cardiacRN2006 replied to kgh31386's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I read about 200 question from the Saunders book while waiting for my plane home from my honeymoon. I flew back on a Friday, took the NCLEX on Tuesday. I only studied those 200 Qs. I totally knew I...

  24. WHY are some PCT's so bitter towards new RN's???

    cardiacRN2006 replied to inteRN's topic in General Nursing

    That's precisely the reason I did not stay as an RN at the same place I was a tech. I knew the nurses would still see me as a tech, and want me to do all the 'tech' things, and I knew the techs would...
