    Log Narcotic Before/After

    NurseGirl525 replied to ArceusAlpha's topic in General Students

    So you are getting 4 years in a BSN program? And no, you don't get a say to how a RN does her meds. You do what your clinical instructor and school want you to do. You do not critique, ever. They...

    Help me get into nursing school!

    NurseGirl525 replied to jaime_michelle's topic in General Students

    I get that, and that is what I was trying to say. If a person say is struggling in English, then their dedication put in shows the grade. They cannot tell by scores who understands easily, and who...

    Log Narcotic Before/After

    NurseGirl525 replied to ArceusAlpha's topic in General Students

    It honestly depends on the hospital, the unit, the patient...... There is lots to consider here. Remember, nursing school is not the real world of nursing. Since you say you are third year, I am...

    Lose your license for administering a PRN med without a pain scale?

    NurseGirl525 replied to Cola89's topic in General Nursing

    It may be required for Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement, but that doesn't put a nurse's license in jeopardy. There's a huge difference there. Insurance reimbursement and laws are two different...

    NurseGirl525 replied to AdaMarie's topic in General Students

    My boyfriend and I had our 8 month anniversary yesterday. I know it's weird to say that, I just wanted you to know I am in a committed relationship with my soulmate. He lives an hour away so it's...

    Help me get into nursing school!

    NurseGirl525 replied to jaime_michelle's topic in General Students

    The least likely to get litigated? I'm not sure I believe that. They pick the people with the higher scores because that shows how dedicated of a student you are. The reason for the entrance exam...

    Considering Graduation Rates?

    NurseGirl525 replied to rom12345's topic in School, College Programs

    Do you have to pass an exam prior to graduating? Like a predictor exam to predict the likelyhood to pass NCLEX on first try? I find at least in here, many people don't know that is a part of their...

    Feeling Very Discouraged

    NurseGirl525 replied to loveflowers's topic in General Students

    If we are talking about a clinical instructor, I am going to ask if you went up the proper chain of command? If you didn't go to your instructor first, and then went above her head, just going...

    Bad nursing instructor

    NurseGirl525 replied to Jm12345's topic in General Students

    Here is my advice, get over it and move on. I had an instructor who was difficult. Guess what? We had to deal with it. As long as I passed the tests, I went forward, no matter what the rationale...

    new grad: cant find a job

    NurseGirl525 replied to 2016New's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Please know this has absolutely nothing to do with you, but it makes me absolutely sick that there are places wanting new grad RNs to volunteer before landing a job interview. That should never...

    new grad: cant find a job

    NurseGirl525 replied to 2016New's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Your best bet is going to be to do a New Grad Residency Program. I'm going to explain why. Nursing school prepares you take and pass the NCLEX not to do the actual job of a nurse. Two years is...

    Balancing nursing school and family

    NurseGirl525 replied to KellBell188's topic in General Students

    My first question is, Do you have a good support system in place to help you? How young are your kids? Are the loans you are having to take out large? Think of your education as an investment in...

    NurseGirl525 replied to TiffanyMcNurse2b's topic in General Students

    I guess my first question would be to ask how old you are? If you are in your twenties, wait. There is no reason to rush anything. If you are late 30s or early 40s, your window of time is much...

    Scared to admit I am a RN who cares

    NurseGirl525 replied to madwife2002's topic in General Nursing

    Madwife, I think you may be a bit confused on what you are reading in here. I think where you are seeing people get shot down in here is not for caring, but for those that scream from the rooftops...

    NurseGirl525 replied to Little wolf's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hate to tell you, but most BSN programs anymore require some kind of religion class or a philosophy class. A Bachelor's program has many general education credits. So, if you are eventually planning...

    advice on preparing for nursing school

    NurseGirl525 replied to czerwodl121's topic in General Students

    There is really nothing you can do but just sit back and relax. As you have seen, you cannot read ahead of time because none of it makes sense, plus most professors will tell you what they want you...

    I just failed my first nursing exam

    NurseGirl525 replied to Student2017555's topic in General Students

    Do you know this is a diploma program, so you will not be awarded a degree? The only reason I am bringing this up is that these programs are pretty much all gone. You can still sit for the NCLEX and...
