    Everyone is failing out...

    OrganizedChaos replied to Texasstudent0's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Not "everyone" will fail. When you get to your major they want to separate the boys from the men. People will fail but those are the students that don't put in the effort. Classes aren't as easy as...

    How much are you making as a Medical Assistant

    OrganizedChaos replied to MAtoNurse's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Geez! I know nurses who don't get paid that

    Feels like -20 here today

    OrganizedChaos replied to MHDNURSE's topic in School

    I was raised in NJ until 3rd grade so it doesn't feel like Christmas to me unless it's cold. It's suppose to be in the upper 70s today & in the 80s tomorrow. I call bs. It's winter & it's...

    My Time Has Come

    OrganizedChaos replied to Peepershops's topic in General Nursing

    In a city near me the have a nursing home exclusively for male prisoners. I hear it's hell to work at, for obvious reasons. I've worked corrections & it never bothered me. But something about...

    Having a hard time with the people in my nursing school...

    OrganizedChaos replied to tbnurse1's topic in General Students

    But she said "everyone" & then got nasty in a reply. How can we know she had friends in her nursing class when she said "everyone" was evil & backstabbing? People are trying to assess the...

    He's thinking about calling his mother. He obviously doesn't want my mom to help. So she only helps a little bit. It's just really bad today because I'm *so* nauseated, I hate throwing up & I...

    OrganizedChaos replied to LadyFree28's topic in General Nursing

    I'm getting so frustrated with my husband. He has a pinch sciatic nerve & I *know* it hurts but the constant screaming at the top of his lungs, the asking me to do things I can't (like dead lift...

    Less support from friends

    OrganizedChaos replied to Nkhalili's topic in General Students

    The only friend I talked to from high school I don't any more & for the same reason you stated. She wasn't supportive of my wanting to continue my nursing education to become an RN. She is a...

    Liquor Licenses for Nursing Homes?

    OrganizedChaos replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in Nursing News

    Wouldn't it be easier for the nursing homes, assisted living & etc to have the liquor on stock rather than needing a doctor to put in an order for

    How do you feel about having other nurses as patients?

    OrganizedChaos replied to purplegal's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I never tell other nurses/NPs/PAs/doctors I'm a nurse. I also don't let my family either. What for? Like one PP said, it doesn't affect my plan of care. Although I don't advocate for myself but when...

    OrganizedChaos replied to dxt038's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    But it's in black and white. She *most likely* will fail again. There is documented proof of that. So yes, she is a statistic whether you want to acknowledge it or not. And honestly, you telling her...

    3.4 GPA Undergrad too low?

    OrganizedChaos replied to SH4434's topic in General Students

    We really can't tell you. I would contact the school directly. Since I am interested in bridging I have contacted many a school to see what a competitive GPA & HESI/TEAS scores

    HELP! TOOK NCLEX-RN 9 times!!!!! Keep failing!

    OrganizedChaos replied to dxt038's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    As nurses we *should* judge them. It's obvious that they can't pass the minimum competency exam to become a nurse after *nine* tries in *six* years! That's a huge red flag. There is nothing...

    Did You Work While Pregnant?

    OrganizedChaos replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in Health, Stress Management

    When I was pregnant with my first I was working at a detention center. I called out so much & my boss didn't care. I'm half sad I left because I will never have a boss as awesome as him

    12/3: Aggravation and Agreements

    OrganizedChaos replied to LadyFree28's topic in General Nursing

    I'm wondering too. Because with his weight there is so much adipose tissue that it would make it difficult to reach the muscle so then it wouldn't help. I'm hoping he's better by Monday so he can go...
