    Wearing scrubs to a funeral?

    RN403 replied to Beanyamean's topic in General Nursing

    Quite frankly, I don't think that I would care what other people thought about me in this situation. What you wear is far less important than you showing up and being there for your...

    Do you "tell" Facebook where you work?

    RN403 replied to RN403's topic in General Nursing

    Do you post anything about work at all? While I was still in nursing school our dean told us that she never posted anything work-related on FB--even positive things. I have seen people on FB post...

    Do you "tell" Facebook where you work?

    RN403 replied to RN403's topic in General Nursing

    I think that's a great idea. I also use sort of an "alias" as my FB name. Makes me feel a little more

    There is no such thing as a dumb question. But seriously, there is.

    Do you "tell" Facebook where you work?

    RN403 replied to RN403's topic in General Nursing

    I did not realize that if you 'like' a page then they can see your posts! Good to know. I agree though, it's better to keep things private. Gotta love that customize

    Nighttime studying

    RN403 replied to Gottawanna's topic in General Students

    I'm not a coffee drinker myself, but that might be helpful to you. Crunchy snacks, gum, cold juice, talking out the material aloud to myself also helped me stay awake and helped me retain the material...

    RN403 replied to Amber27's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Everything you have already mentioned sounds great. Try to use the lab as much as you can if your instructor offers open lab hours. Also, I used Google Body which I believe is called Zygote Body now....

    RN403 replied to Wagoosh's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I believe it could be attributed to the time of year. There are many new grads out there right now with a limited # of positions open. As for not hearing back from potential employers yet, I am just...

    Graduate Nurse Hired as Charge Nurse??

    RN403 replied to Laurus Nobilis's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I would definitely talk to your employer about extending your on-the-floor training. If they are not willing and you truly do not feel that you could perform the duties of your job competently then I...

    What books are really necessary for nursing school?

    RN403 replied to dee789's topic in General Students

    Books such as a care-plan book, a lab guide, your Med-Surg books, and your drug book are definitely must buys I would say as you can use them for more than one class. Specialty books such as OB and...

    RN403 replied to Littlelulu29's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    RN403 replied to Leonelle's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs
