  3. CNA's: Please Read

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

    I work nights only. I can't do it while I'm in nursing school though, just on breaks. I think if our night shift was shorter I could but the 12s would leave me too tired for

  4. Clinicals..funnest or hardest part?

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

    I love clinicals. It's where you get to use what you've learned. I don't sit around asking my instructor what to do though. I get busy, do my vitals, do my head to toe, give meds if we're allowed that...

  5. Regular Backpack versus Rolling Backpack

    Mewsin replied to cate3624's topic in General Students

    Just make sure it is made from durable material. My 1st semester my backpack tore halfway through. My one textbook is 10lbs and we need it every day. Another strategy is to make friends with the...

  9. Can nurses refuse to perform/assist circumcisions and abortions?

    Mewsin replied to crunchymama91's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I just want to say, I did not ask to be excused from the procedure. Our class often goes off topic and circumcision was brought up. I guess the reaction I had when someone stated a myth and I debunked...

  10. Can nurses refuse to perform/assist circumcisions and abortions?

    Mewsin replied to crunchymama91's topic in LPN, LVN Students

  11. Can nurses refuse to perform/assist circumcisions and abortions?

  12. Can nurses refuse to perform/assist circumcisions and abortions?

    Mewsin replied to crunchymama91's topic in LPN, LVN Students

  14. Can nurses refuse to perform/assist circumcisions and abortions?

    Mewsin replied to crunchymama91's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Due to my strong views on circumcision I've already been told by my instructors that I will not be involved in one. Just for the record not all lpns work in ltc, some do work in surgery, but I know...

  15. Dumb question....

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

    In my class we carpool as much as possible because of how little parking there is but we decide that on our own. We are expected to get ourselves to the clinical
