  1. Failed nclex 10 times should i try again???????

    ShaeMarie replied to ekb2011's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    No. You don't get 10 tries with a patient. Anxiety can only be excused so much before it slips into a lack of or poor application of basic nursing knowledge required to pass the nclex. After 10 years,...

  2. Nursing Dose

    ShaeMarie replied to guest449786's topic in Patient Medications

    I've heard that too! "Nursing dose" flies around my ED every shift. People may or may not actually be doing it, but the thought is always nice... Especially with

  3. I paid 200 dollars for pvt

    ShaeMarie replied to jancarlocastaneda's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I just can't. Why can't all things PVT just go

  4. Screwed Over by My School

    ShaeMarie replied to Brilton's topic in General Students

    That sounds frustrating. I can only hope I'd have the patience to deal with that situation. BUT, in the grand scheme of things, how much does your transcript saying August vs May matter? Drop the...

  5. I'm upset and feel very disrespected.

    ShaeMarie replied to KatFUTUREnurse's topic in General Students

  6. Why Chamberlain College of Atlanta is a mistake to enroll in.

    ShaeMarie replied to dekoocRRT's topic in Chamberlain College

  8. What I learned this week (6/27)...

    ShaeMarie replied to ixchel's topic in General Nursing

    I learned, from a patient, that there is a viral shot you can be given to prevent HIV transmission within 48 hours of confirmed exposure. What I hope to learn by next week is: Why this shot isn't...

  11. I got reported to HR

    ShaeMarie replied to katie92's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    What was wrong with asking if her name was a birth name or not (if that's what you meant)? What you said was rude. And if you can't see how it was and have chalked it up to someone being offended too...

  12. Test day ritual?

    ShaeMarie replied to LJR89's topic in General Students

    I always looked a mess on test day. No effort made to even look presentable. Lol. My hair was up in a ratty bun or just brushed down & unsecured and, no matter how hot it was outside, I always...

  15. Livescan- nursing school (arrests vs. actual charges.

    ShaeMarie replied to Sam_walsh17's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    They typically will see the arrest and charge, as well as require you to submit a letter of explanation regarding the offense and certified court documents with the cases disposition. That is where...

  17. How many job interviews before you get your first nursing job?

    ShaeMarie replied to celtickimba's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Things lined up well for me. I was offered and accepted an ER position before graduation without an interview. I did precept on the unit during my last semester

  18. Every other weekend & holidays??

    ShaeMarie replied to LuciaRN2b's topic in General Nursing

    OP, graduate and pass NCLEX. Then worry about nursing positions that may serve your needs

  19. Feel like I'm barely passing

    ShaeMarie replied to Run student's topic in General Students

    For me, reading and reviewing notes helped minimally. It was practicing questions that really made things sink in because it forced me to apply the information. If you have resources available, see if...

  20. Stay AWAY DROM DLSI of Indiana

    ShaeMarie replied to nicernurse1's topic in Excelsior College

    This was completely uncalled for. Your anger is displaced. YOU failed to fully educate YOURSELF and ensure YOU understood what was within the four corners of that contract in an effort to get a...

  21. Diploma nurses are worthless?!

    ShaeMarie replied to stephdRN's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    She's addressing you saying you wouldn't want a nurse that only studied nursing for a year or two. BSN nurses study nursing for two years also, because there are only 2 years of nursing core...

    ShaeMarie replied to hopefulxx's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Thanks for clarifying. I thought that I may have mixed that up after I

  23. 265 questions

    ShaeMarie replied to hopefulxx's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    If you took all 265, your pass or fail boils down to the last 60 graded questions. Every test taker has 15 sample questions that don't count towards their score. If you stayed above passing level...

  24. Cost of Nurse Residency Program

    ShaeMarie replied to Butterfly922's topic in General Nursing

    This is news to me, I've never heard of a residency quite like this one. It seems scammy to me and I agree that mass participation will set a bad precedent. BLS costs all of $50 and those other certs...

  25. Any tricks on how to get abg correct

    ShaeMarie replied to Barbara8428's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I learned ABGs best with ROME, respiratory opposite metabolic equal. pH up/CO2 down=respiratory issue, pH up/HCO3 up=metabolic issue and vice versa. Also, with compensation, pH off with 1 abnormal...
