  1. What's the nurse-patient ratio in your unit?

    We do team nursing. An RN, LPN, and aid to 10-12 pts. Just started. So not sure if I like it or not. It's very different compared to having 6-8 of my own
  2. Team nursing?

    I'm a baby nurse of only 6 months, when I took the job we had our own patient load 6-8 pts. As of a month ago, they are trying to go to team nursing. Hiring more lpns, aids...does anyone have ecperience with team nursing? Having a pt load of 10. Wit...
  3. Hurst q review scores

    I would like to know if 82, 82, and 85 are up to par with others who are taking the tests or have passed nclex. Can you share your scores. I know median should be 84. Thanks!
  4. What is your Achilles heel?

    Broken bones that are exposed and trach secretions. Everyone at work knows I will cover them if it's vomit, bm or something like that..and they cover me when we get a respiratory pt, which isn't often.
  5. I have only been at this job for 2 months (first nursing job). I get along with everyone on my team, sometimes I work an extra day, and there is a nurse that works those days. She is always out to get someone in trouble. My friend works the same days...
  6. hurst review

    It gives you short ways to remember core content. If you do it correctly, you should have no problems. The instuctors are awesome, but I didn't have the patience to re watch the videos after watching the live review. I only did the 5th day material ...
  7. Pearson says... Pearson vue trick not accurate

    I did the trick, got the good pop up. My state OK doesnt do quick results but my name was up on BON site 48 hours later. My temp license was void and the new one active

  10. Freaking out about Nclex in 2 weeks

    Also, sorry im blabing but there is a study guide floating on this site. It's awesome. I printed it and go over it all the time. It's 35 pages of pure information!
  11. Freaking out about Nclex in 2 weeks

    I am taking mine in 2 weeks too. I only took a week off, and still nervous. We used ATI too: I HATE ATI...but it's a good source now that I go back over the content. I just didn't like how the questions were worded. I am doing Saunders now. I use the...
  12. Please share something you wish you had known when you started or something you learned really quick afterwards that would have been helpful in the beginning. Thank you! Ps. I start my first job Monday-extremely nervous.
  13. Hurst is great!
  14. I need advice! please read

    I start my first nursing job Monday. I have a 3 year old son who is home with me when im not at school or busy with important appointments. I will be working in a hospital with a daycare facility that I intend to use. I will be working 3- 12 hour shi...
  15. I need advice! please read

    Unfortunately we cant work opposite because he would need to be at work before I get home and vice versa. The good thing about the daycare is I can always go check on him when I get a break-I know I wont always be promised that break but I can always...
  16. I need advice! please read

    Thank you so much! I wish I had family that wanted to be more supportive and spend time with him. I am finding out that family isnt always the best choice for me.
  17. I need advice! please read

    I didn't ask for an answer. Only input of others expiences. Thank you for your advice. I am going to pray about it and hope that I am able to make the right decision.
  18. I need advice! please read

    Im not a single parent but my husband works 12s too. And will be on some of the same days as me. I would love to say that we have a grandparent that would do that for us...but we dont. I feel like I would rather someone close to me keep him and let h...
  19. I need help!! About hurst review~~

    When you do the live review, you get access to the online material too. So I would say that everything in the book is in the videos. Except the 5th day material. That isnt in the book.
  20. Hurst q review scores

    Thanks. Ive printed all 5th day material. Im taking rn
  21. How should I answer SATA if I'm not sure??

    Most SATA will have more than 2 answers but not usually all will be correct per Hurst Review instructor. I can't imagine it being only 1.
  22. Failed in Hurst Review

    I just completed the live Hurst Review, waiting to schedule NCLEX.. I feel as though it is going to help unless the test is completely managment. They dont cover peds and maternity during the 3 days you are there but you get something called 5th day ...
  23. NEED your help and advice please :(

    I would hope you aren't just memorizing facts. You need to understand rationales and know why something is the way it is. Nclex is not just memorized facts. You may want to try the Hurst review. Good luck.
  24. Hurst review q tests

    I just finished the live Hurst. I feel as though it is going to help a lot and so glad we are required to attend. I am not starting tests until right before Nclex. Its good to hear everyone's story about passing after taking Hurst.
  25. ATI testing is hard... help!

    I am in my last semester and have always struggled somewhat with the wording of the questions. I have realized that if I pick out one word of each answer that I believe is wrong or right and give it a rationale to why it is wrong or right, I usually ...
