   PVT IS DEAD! Don't try the "new" trick

   Bbett replied to scaredsilly's topic in NCLEX

   While I agree that it is unreasonable to waste 200 dollars to try the PVT. Most people are intelligent enough to put in a fake credit card number. The PVT is not 100% accurate though I agree. I have been next to people that have done it and it says t...

   Bbett replied to iheartcells's topic in General Students

   Help From Experienced CNAs !

   Bbett replied to Keesha2015's topic in CNA/MA

   Always always always ask for help. Nobody is going to think less of you. At my hospitals we never turn a patient by ourselves. We don't want an injury and the hospital doesn't want to have to pay for our injury. A complete care patient that can't tur...

   "Don't Work" Isn't An Answer

   Bbett replied to mirandaaa's topic in Pre-Nursing

   At my clinical rotations as students we were in charge of complete all around care. Meaning of course the CNA's weren't going to be going in those rooms as much. As students we had 3-4 patients so it only makes sense that we can do CNA care as well a...

   3.4 gpa-doomed?

   Bbett replied to iheartcells's topic in General Students

   LOL oh my gosh that statement. I go to a community college and I have never seen cheating. I also would like to mention that my community college has the highest nclex scores in the state. I guess perhaps we cheat on that as well. 😂😂😂

   Does. Anyone like their CNA job??

   Bbett replied to Cathylady's topic in CNA/MA

   I loved my job as a CNA because it allowed me to have a very well paying position while going through nursing school. I often said if I didn't know there was a light at the end of the tunnel, I would quit lol.

   when to start studying for NCLEX

   Bbett replied to Graduation2016's topic in Student Assist

   I started studying for nclex as soon as I started the program. My program required an nclex review book in the beginning and I used it to study for exams. Now that I'm about to graduate I've completed the book and have bought another one for after gr...

   "Don't Work" Isn't An Answer

   Bbett replied to mirandaaa's topic in Pre-Nursing

   My program has always been two 9 hour clinical days and two days of 6-8 hours of lecture depending on which rotation we were in. Comes to around 30-35 hours. Almost always Monday-thursday which makes it nice because then you have Friday- Sunday to wo...

    "Don't Work" Isn't An Answer

    Bbett replied to mirandaaa's topic in Pre-Nursing

    SAME I was always the first to get things done and the most prepared for clinicals and exams. People would ask how I found time. You just get it done earlier and faster than anyone else because you KNOW "ok I only have THIS two hours so I better fini...

    Nurses with ear piercings

    Bbett replied to hshuang's topic in Professionalism

    From my experience in nursing school tattoos and piercings rules are a lot less strict. As far as tattoos we were allowed to have them showing as long as they weren't offensive. Piercings we were allowed 3 on each ear. I would still go ahead and get ...

    Bbett replied to shabish's topic in CNA/MA

    I'm not from GA so my information might not be of help. Don't believe everyone when they say you can't work through nursing school. Myself and a lot of others in my program worked full time. I worked as a CNA through my RN program, 3 12 hour shifts. ...
