    NCLEX fear is taking over

    vanessaem replied to workingtomygoal's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm in the same boat as you. I haven't been able to get a good night sleep since I started this process. I go to sleep and wake up thinking about questions. Last night I had a weird dream about...

    Nursing students on medication

    vanessaem replied to kjnsweets's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    That's the point I was sort of alluding to before. There is still a stigma about taking any kind of "mental health"(for lack of a better term at the moment) drug. It's sad to see that some in the...

    Nursing students on medication

    vanessaem replied to kjnsweets's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    If the student is alert, oriented and focused on his work and the care of the patients, I don't care what he's been prescribed. :-) Or perhaps there's still a stigma about taking certain types of...

    I can't face 265 ?'s again....help!!!

    vanessaem replied to cljacksonrn's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I found that ATI was not a good represenation of the type of questions you would see on NCLEX. ATI and similar are more content based whereas NCLEX is more systems analysis based. So no matter how...

    Should I do an accelerated nursing program or a traditional one?

    vanessaem replied to Missashley's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    It depends on on you. Now if you get your degree, traditional programs might push you into the accelerated program. Since you're almost done, you should probably take this route. The pro is that you...

    vanessaem replied to stickit34's topic in First Year After Licensure

    As others have said, all this isn't worth all of the trouble. Either transfer out of there or find a new job. I know several nurses who have had to move around a few times until they "found the right...

    How often do you encounter violence?

    vanessaem replied to studentnurse9806's topic in Psychiatric

    My clinical rotation at a psychiatric facility was one of my most rewarding clinical experiences. Please don't assume that these patients are any more violent than the average person because they're...

    confused

    vanessaem replied to Tesfanurse's topic in Nursing Career

    I say getting a job is more important than the trip. Unless it's a trip you definitely have to go on, I'd stay and try and get a job while they're still available. The competition is stiff. There will...

    Test Ethics Question

    vanessaem replied to studentRNclassof15's topic in General Students

    I'm with Krzysztof. I'd let it go. All the individuals are doing is cheating themselves and yikes...maybe the patients[although I doubt they would pass Nclex anyway] in the long run. As long as...
