  1. Is this pt. abandonment

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to Orion81RN's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Unsafe staffing ratios leading to patient harm are required to be reported to my state's Dept. of Community Health. A facility like that here would receive multiple citations, fines, and possible...

  2. Lack of support from fellow nurses!

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to Azxrn's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not familiar with "free fall" or the tone of his/her posts. But I'm sure it was an attempt at lightening the tone by injecting humor. Tempers can flare; people come here to share, vent, learn,...

  3. New grad RN, don't think I can do this

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to becmcg's topic in General Nursing

    Tears or profanity: pick your poison. I curse like a sailor when I get into my car even after going into 31 years of nursing. I'm going to work on that this

  4. Lpns, can I please pick your brains?!

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to Salbright90's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    The hospital I creently work at PRN (float pool) still employs LPNs on the Med-surg units. However, it is a teaching hospital. The one I left, after receiving my RN license and that year-or-two paid...

  5. Out of the frying pan, Into the fire.

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to LunaTunaPineapple's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Go in a few minutes early to get your lists and times together: blood sugars/insulins, crushed meds, tube feeders. Organize this list chronologically and then make copies so that you won't have to do...

  6. Took nclex today computer shut off at 205 question

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to Adah30's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    There should be the option of searching for your school's name and code by entering the city and state of your program's location. The dropdown arrows will help with this instead of you trying to...

  7. Oh no! Prohibited to Practice Letter

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to Nurse Nanobot's topic in General Nursing

    If you have RN on your badge, do not clock in with it while this is going on. You do not want to spend one minute on the clock as an RN if the board of nursing says otherwise. Your employer cannot...

  8. Passed the NCLEX

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to aallen11's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Failure #15 coming right up. It does not matter what state he tested for licensure....it is ​all the same

  9. Passed the NCLEX

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to aallen11's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    This is NOT going to help you, Sianee. Focusing your studies to what the OP experienced is just a waste of time. You don't understand rationales to what's causing your own failures. Now you're trying...

  10. Never thought it would be this bad

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to ajacks65's topic in General Nursing

    As a float nurse, anything that I would say has already been said. A hospital that hires a new grad into its float pool is waving the brightest red flag anyone would ever want to see and it's saying...

  11. Is the Baby Boomer Generation not going to get good care?

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to Cola89's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    First, let me begin by expressing my sincere condolences on the loss of your mother...(((HUGS))) I am a baby boomer and I have lost so many of my classmates due to reasons listed in your thread, and I...

  12. What Do I Do Now?

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to Chloe Price's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I think you should do absolutely nothing until you calm down and are able to focus. Re-registering for the NCLEX is no different from registering for the first time. Some states, if not all, require a...

  13. Is it appropriate to ask for time off during an interview?

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to lola8penny's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Absolutely let them know about pre-existing plans that were in the making before you were contacted about the position. Life goes on; nobody sits by the phone with it on hold pending a call that might...

  14. Nclex on Saturday.Please pray for me

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to Adah30's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    She takes it Saturday at 2pm, according to her

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to sianee's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Ahhhh...been there, done that....so, hold off on the nclex until you deal with that especially if there is any kind of abuse

  16. Nclex in 2 days

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to Adaabia's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    All the more reason to let it go. With all the medical/nursing facts in the world, you couldn't possibly know which 75-265 facts they're going to question you on. That's why it's important to...

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to sianee's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    And if not, the OP needs help seriously; but not from

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to sianee's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I don't think anyone buys a vacation house to leave a job. They usually just quit and stay at home, only changing from one job to another...not houses. Sianee, there's something else going on with you...

  19. Nclex in 2 days

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to Adaabia's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Let it all go at this point. Anything that you try to process now will probably have you second-guessing things that you already know and send you into panic mode. Enjoy your evening tonight; enjoy...

    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HELLO!!!! Thank you!!! I wasn't gonna go there but since you did, I'd so love to hear the answer!

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to sianee's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Your understanding is again incorrect. A nursing license is only good for working as a nurse. There are many areas available in nursing that may appear to be non-nursing positions, but you better...

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to sianee's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    ...I'm just not understanding your methods at all. When I said physically distance yourself from the factors that you feel are interfering with your success on the nclex, well, (am I allowed to say...

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to sianee's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    OMG!!! Your post made me look into the OP's history. It seems the OP has taken the nclex 4 times since the initial cry for help in October 2016. There is no way the OP is adequately reviewing if...

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to sianee's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Although I have no experience working with juveniles, I must say that one has nothing to do with the other. But if your defense is that of working a full time job while going to school full time, then...

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to sianee's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    With all due respect,Remember what? In your opening post, you admitted that your problem (first thing identified) was knowledge deficit. How can you remember what you have no knowledge of? Do you...
