    Mewsin replied to Backwardo's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

  4. Clinicals at the hospital I work at. WWYD?

    Mewsin replied to vc01ca's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

  5. CNA PRN position

    Mewsin replied to mee9mee9's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    There is just no way for us to know what it will be like. I work a casual job, when I'm not in school, but I get full time hours. There were 2 months when I first started that I didn't get enough...

  6. Concept Maps

    Mewsin replied to Stephalump's topic in General Students

    We really only use them in the clinical setting and I love them. It just brings everything together, focuses you on your assessments, and keeps you on track for the day. Doing them is hash and when...

  7. Please give me some advice

    Mewsin replied to aywl's topic in Canada

  9. Semester 2 Practicum

    Mewsin replied to Mewsin's topic in LPN, LVN Students

  12. med pass difficulties

    Mewsin replied to n.walker's topic in LPN, LVN Students

  13. I HAVE TO VENT

    Mewsin replied to mrsnurse2014's topic in LPN, LVN Students

  15. Checking Gtube Residual help

    Mewsin replied to cindylou2192's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I did just do this it does take a little effort to get contents. Generally I'd think an instructor should know how much force to use. And you do need to know if there is residual feed in there. Now...

  16. Disappointed in my clinical rotation..

    Mewsin replied to robdob's topic in General Students

    Mewsin replied to melissa.22's topic in LPN, LVN Students
