  1. Nursing book bag..help!

    studentnursemon86 replied to NURSEY92's topic in General Students

    I'm in love with my high Sierra. It doesn't hold all of my books. I don't think anything short of luggage can do that. It does have side pockets, a place for my water bottle, plus the option of...

  2. What to wear to lab/clinical training.

    studentnursemon86 replied to studentnursemon86's topic in General Students

    I'll just wear jeans, a short sleeve t-shirt and sneakers. I have clinical the next day so I'll ask then about scrubs for the in-class clinical

  3. Soma or Enclosure Beds... Cruel or not?

    studentnursemon86 replied to Paws2people's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    We don't have any enclosed beds. We have Hi-Lo beds that pretty much go to the floor to help prevent injuries if someone falls. We also have cushioned matts to put on either side of the bed on the...

  4. Question; orientation went great except...

    studentnursemon86 replied to Bjarte's topic in General Students

    That is true. I wouldn't dare say that is at the school. But it seems to be the "s" word to some extent. It sounds to me like you handled this in the best way possible. Hopefully that is the worst of...

  5. What to wear to lab/clinical training.

    studentnursemon86 replied to studentnursemon86's topic in General Students

    Weird. Maybe the first lab, but they said street clothes. I will have to double check with my professor. I know we have two clinicals at the school before hospital. I think I will just wear scrubs to...

  6. My patients would be horrified...

    studentnursemon86 replied to Kitkat1212's topic in General Students

    I've worked in healthcare for 9 years and I just started my first year of an RN program. I love Twilight, Hunger Games, and I even read the 50 Shades books. I think it is a good thing to have an...

  7. Telling "STATE" you don't have supplies....

    studentnursemon86 replied to nervousnurse's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    If the state inspector asked; I wouldn't lie. However, where I work we have a supply tech who orders supplies. If we are low or out of something, people let him/her know. They usually order them...

  8. Question; orientation went great except...

    studentnursemon86 replied to Bjarte's topic in General Students

    This is ridiculous! My school gave us an order form where we could get our scrubs. Each had male and female sizes as well as petite. I had to get petite pants because I'm only 5'1". We have a lot of...

  9. Mental health

    studentnursemon86 replied to Ackeem's topic in Health, Stress Management

    The fact that you even say that shows that you lack the compassion to work in that

  10. EKG question

    studentnursemon86 posted a topic in General Students

    RSR in V1. Does anyone know what it means? I don't need it for anything in particular. Just saw it and wondered what that

  11. EKG question

    studentnursemon86 replied to studentnursemon86's topic in General Students

    Haha

  12. Are they doing away with the ASN programs?

    studentnursemon86 replied to ac9390's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My current hospital won't hire from outside with an ASN, but they will hire internally if you sign a contract to start BSN courses after 1 year and graduate in

  13. Anyone go through first week with no books?

    studentnursemon86 posted a topic in General Students

    I ordered my books for my first semester of nursing school. Class starts Monday and the bookstore is saying they may not have them until Thursday. Has anyone ever had this and gone through the first...

  14. Is This Bullying?

    studentnursemon86 replied to roser13's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I went to the grocery store today and I saw a sign for jello and just started laughing to myself. Thanks guys, people think I'm a weirdo now

  15. Advice about liability insurance?

    studentnursemon86 replied to xiaobear007's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    I got a student discount I think. I paid $35 for $6million in coverage. Not too

  16. Co-workers: The good, the bad and the ugly

    studentnursemon86 replied to Brian's topic in Nurses Rock

    I can't recall having any continuing education on this at work for about 8 years. Hmm?? Perhaps they should get on

  17. Anyone go through first week with no books?

    studentnursemon86 replied to studentnursemon86's topic in General Students

    Our library doesn't let us take out books, but we can use them in the library. The whole system is flawed. I'm paying an extra $200 that will be refunded once I return the two books I had to buy. I...

  18. Anyone go through first week with no books?

    studentnursemon86 replied to studentnursemon86's topic in General Students

    I emailed the professor She told me I only need two books for the first week. I got them and I will return them when the package comes in(that includes those two books). I ordered a week before...

  19. Just need a vent...

    studentnursemon86 posted a topic in General Students

    So last night at 11pm I got an email from the place I ordered my school uniforms from that my lab coat and pants are on back order. I called this morning. The shirt and lab coat should be in by...

  20. You will make mistakes

    studentnursemon86 replied to cd365c's topic in Patient Care Technician, Assistants

    I was in with a patient who was coding. I was setting up the airway cart and another patient's family member asked me into the room to fix his BP cuff because it slid down his arm. I kindly told her...

  21. You will make mistakes

    studentnursemon86 replied to cd365c's topic in Patient Care Technician, Assistants

    In the ER I'll have 3 different nurses to report to. One may have a patient who wants something like water or the bedpan. The other has an ambulance coming in with chest pain and a significant cardiac...

  22. Nurse Posts About a Patient on Facebook ... Duty to Report?

    studentnursemon86 replied to PacoUSA's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    I often have fun work stories. My friends get a kick out of some of them. I always make a point to never mention any names or any information about the patient other than the silly thing they said or...

  23. Is This Bullying?

    studentnursemon86 replied to roser13's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I can't wait to go to work tomorrow night and give someone red jello. I will laugh my behind off most likely. They may want a psych eval on

  24. Nursing book bag..help!

    studentnursemon86 replied to NURSEY92's topic in General Students

    I just got a crate at Walmart for $4. I put it in my trunk. The rolling book bag isn't nearly big

  25. Nursing student lacking passion?

    studentnursemon86 replied to misskate098's topic in General Students

    I think people view their passion differently. As a CNA/CPT, I am passionate about continuing education, mastering my skills. As a student, I am passionate about gaining the education to further my...
