  1. Can I Become a Registered Nurse While Being TERRIBLE At Math?

    SeattleJess replied to HarleyQuinn's topic in General Students

    What PaulBaxter said. I'm sorry you had a bad experience with a difficult teacher. Warning: you are probably going to have similar experiences in nursing school and in life. Bottom line is to find...

  2. How to Cite a Publisher's Imprint in APA Style?

    SeattleJess replied to SeattleJess's topic in General Students

    Thank you so much! Since the only location cited is St. Louis MO, I'm okay going with that. Since Elsevier is more brief (briefer?) than Elsevier/Mosby, I'm leaning toward just plain ol' Elsevier....

  3. How to Cite a Publisher's Imprint in APA Style?

    SeattleJess replied to SeattleJess's topic in General Students

    Yes, tried both but the answer totally depends on what you put in... and I don't know whether to put in a trade name of the

  4. How to Cite a Publisher's Imprint in APA Style?

    SeattleJess replied to SeattleJess's topic in General Students

    The problem is, the citation generated depends on what you input. Put just Elsevier, that's what comes out. Put Mosby and Elsevier, and Mosby/Elsevier comes out. Put Elsevier and Mosby, then...

  5. How to Cite a Publisher's Imprint in APA Style?

    SeattleJess replied to SeattleJess's topic in General Students

    Thank you, experience is golden! I really appreciate your help! The Library of Congress site says "copyright by Mosby, Inc. an affiliate of Elsevier, Inc." So I'm thinking I'll try the citation...

  6. Need Advice: Did Not Pass 1st Semester of Nursing School

    SeattleJess replied to Haybah's topic in General Students

    What Qteapi said. Really, sounds like you need to get the hang of the question format and sadly, for most of us, we do that by flubbing exams. The Nugent & Vitale Fundamentals Success book was...

  7. Win $100! May 2015 Caption Contest

    SeattleJess replied to Joe V's topic in General Nursing

    Yep. Halfway through nursing school and had enough. He'll be back when he runs it

  8. How to word this?

    SeattleJess replied to IHeartPeds87's topic in General Nursing

    Maybe you can find a way to disclose without triggering the closed-ended question reject

  9. I Love Night Shift

    SeattleJess replied to NurseOnAMotorcycle's topic in General Nursing

    I'm just a first year nursing student who worked 3 months as a CNA before starting school but I hafta say.... night shift blew me away. The nurses were whip smart. One literally came in a got a...

    SeattleJess replied to Angeljho's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I admire your courage on behalf of your advocacy for your patient. Bless

  11. RNs!!!! Did you fail Any classes???

    SeattleJess replied to dinah77's topic in General Nursing

  13. Telling the truth on a peer evaluation for a group project?

    SeattleJess replied to JESSICAAA159's topic in General Students

    You are describing my eleven years of working for the state. Supervisors had the rule that the only bad employees were the ones who brought problems to their attention. This is a huge ethical issue,...

  14. CNA impersonating RN

    SeattleJess replied to Heaven-Leigh's topic in General Nursing

    What OP said was, "so I pulled up a picture of her and asked the little girl if that was her and she replied that it was. I'm a little shocked how this is even legal and honestly quite annoyed as I am...

  15. CNA impersonating RN

    SeattleJess replied to Heaven-Leigh's topic in General Nursing

    I thought this at first but I'd read the post late at night and responded quickly. Felt a nagging doubt this morning, so I reread that the OP pulled up a picture of the person in question wearing a...

  16. CNA impersonating RN

    SeattleJess replied to Heaven-Leigh's topic in General Nursing

    If you are still friends with the sister (and you live in a small town where it's easy to run into her), why not contact her to see what she says? I agree with the other posters who said that it is...

  17. Help! I look young!

    SeattleJess replied to hella_RN's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Like, like, like and like! Thank you for your

  18. Working the same unit you were once hospitalized (psych)

    SeattleJess replied to Ddestiny's topic in General Nursing

    Your experience makes you uniquely qualified to help others. If I needed mental health services, I'd pick a nurse who'd been there and come through over anyone else. Sad there is still a stigma, but...

  19. I was reported for something I didnt actually do. Help.

    SeattleJess replied to LisaF0115's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Patient perception is exactly the reason why the hospitals where we do clinicals and our school does not allow cell phone use during clinicals. We can us a cell phone if we're on a break and not...

  20. Thanks for the support and opposition

    SeattleJess replied to Jules A's topic in General Nursing

    Your comment is very interesting to me. It was stressed in a small group exercise on the second day of nursing school that the ability to consider other POVs is an integral part of "critical...

  21. Nurses, It's Time: Find a Happy Place Amidst Chaos

    SeattleJess replied to Jacqueline.Damm's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Okay, I have a goal now. After I've graduated and certified with my RN, I'm moving to Virginia and working for you. Dang, woman, your positive, life-enhancing energy radiates off the computer screen....

  22. Uuuuugh, APA!

    SeattleJess replied to Farawyn's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Ayyiyi... I feel a million years old. I'm thinking "Why not just get the APA handbook and read it instead of getting a program that may or may not produce the result you want?" Is it obsolete to read...

  23. Other student needs too much help

    SeattleJess replied to konstantine's topic in General Students

    GrnTea, you've schooled me before, you're schooling me now and I hope you'll be around for a long, long time to toss me these gems. This is really, really excellent counsel. No apologies. Direct the...

  24. Other student needs too much help

    SeattleJess replied to konstantine's topic in General Students

    So wise, this advice. And I must admit, I'm a little bit in love with you for your giving spirit. Don't lose that... but get your gut onboard with the team and trust it. If you feel you've gone to...

    SeattleJess replied to Noahj's topic in General Nursing

    Add up all the dollars in and the costs and the hours you spend to net your paycheck. Divide. Then you can compute your true hourly wage. Then you need to look at the percentage of your day you will...
