    Pursued by another hospital

    Hi all ! I need advice: I'm a new grad and was fortunate enough to get the job I wanted when I graduated: Peds Psych. The downfall was that its a part time position but i needed a job and I accepted ( I have been able to pick up plenty of shifts so...
  3. This happened to me while I was a student. I was giving my pt a bed bath, he was talking, then snoring...I untied his gown at the neck and he was fine. I left the room briefly ( literally less than 1 min) to get more washcloths and next thing I know ...

    NCLEX is NOT hard

    100% agree... Nursing school tests, ATI and even Saunders were all much harder

    ATT 2013

    I'm in Iowa and the time between when I graduated and actually got my ATT was a little over one month. Luckily my BON was cooperative with me when I started calling them. Their website states to call if its been more than 3 weeks since you applied. S...

    Saunders for nclex..plz clarify...

    I would miss about 3 questions minimum on the end of chapter quizzes, the most I missed were 7. I got about a 60 on the comprehensive one on the CD

    Saunders for nclex..plz clarify...

    I used Saunders and I found out today I passed NCLEX, Saunders is a great review but I honestly found NCLEX to be easier as far as the way questions were presented. Good luck !

    Pearson Vue Trick was WRONG!!!!!!!

    Worked for me! Tested on the 10th, tried pvt less than an hour after and I got the good pop up all every time I tried it up until my unofficial results today !
  13. I graduated April 27 and didn't my ATT until a month later. I'm in Iowa and I know that my BON has been very busy processing all of the applications coming in after other nursing schools graduated after we did. Hopefully you hear something soon !

    Nclex and shutting at 79 questions.

    I think it's best to do the trick continusly until you get your unofficial results. I find mine out at 2pm, so far I've had the good pop up. I started checking a little less Han an hour after my test and every 2hrs the rest of the evening (lol)

    NCLEX in 3 days & I am beyond nervous!!

    I took it yesterday at 2,, wasn't as hard as ATI, in my opinion it compared to Kaplan Prep and Saunders. I got A LOT of teaching and "who would the RN see first". I can honestly say the most confident I felt on any answer choice I made was about 80%....

    Anyone who has taken the NCLEX RN after April 1st?

    If you haven't paid for Kaplan I wouldn't stress about it, the only reason I thought Kaplan and NCLEX compared was because Kaplan had a lot of "who would the nurse see next" questions...if you have Saunders or access to ATI I suggest doing those typ...

    Violated NCLEX rules

    We were told very clearly that absolutely NO cell phone usage is allowed... It results in automatic failure. Rules are also clearly written on the NCLEX website

    Personal Experience after Many Years as a Nurse

    I am so sorry for your loss. I am a nursing student and graduate in 2 weeks and this weeks readings are about doing what is best for our patients and your story really tugged at my heart as I had just read about advocating. As nurses, we are taught t...

    Want to quit nursing school.

    Does your school offer counseling ? Do you have a place of worship ? Someone you can talk to or trust ? Maybe a family member or someone you could move in with while you think things through ? I get the whole cultural aspect and it may sound harsh, ...

    Blogs

    Hey guys ! Do any of you guys have blogs in which you write about nursing, school, etc ?
  24. Don't even get me started.... I will NEVER file with HR Block again. My advice: call the IRS directly with questions. I was told by HRB that since I had student credits that it an internal glitch with the IRS happened and that I would be getting a le...
  25. Also, do some self soul searching and be honest with yourself. I withdrew from a semester because there was no way I was going to pass and although it sucked to admit that I recognized it as the truth, I was also having money issues and I couldn't af...
