Hello, New to this site and im excited about it, it looks like a very helpful site. I would like to know who out there is thinking about or already applied to the LPN Program at Wilbur Wright College in Chicago to start this Spring 2014? And if so, D...

As a nursing student I like to read others input on the nursing profession. I've read very helpful posts by some of the experienced nurses from this website.

Not trying to judge you but besides relaying in God, preparing for the nclex should be imperative in order to be successful the second time around.

Same set up in my school. You can't expect things to run smoothly and evenly for everybody, especially in nursing school. The professors run the show and if you vocalize your concerns the only thing you'll get is enemies who will want you out of the ...

Treat yourself to a nice vacation if you can, somewhere tropical, like the Caribbean....sigh....the Caribbean.

When reading, I read only 3 first sentences from every large paragraph, I also read the end of chapter summary and the power points if instructor provides them. There's a lot of "fluff" in nursing books, IMO, so skimming through them and concentrat...

Sorry to hear that. But you have to shake it off and keep going :) Good luck.

Ugh?! How did you know?!

Two weeks in the norm. A well- written resignation letter should ease the transition. Good luck.

Oh my! Miss mollie, I could've written your post. I am in my first semester and at Clinicals I'm always apologizing, to patients, nurses, CNAs, my instructor, literally to everybody. I feel I take too long, I apologize, I feel I'm making someone unco...

I'm just a nursing student. Does this mean I still have time to run as fast as I can?

Yes it does look good

Manny92 I PMd you with some useful info.

To the OP. You seem to have a great forward thinking attitude and that'll always work in your favor. You seem to be proactively thinking how you're going to tackle this saturated field that nursing has turned into.

I did 2 years of waitressing and actually liked it, but I just got a CNA certification and I'm actively searching for a CNA/PCT position so I can get used to the healthcare setting. A hospital is my first choice because of the variety of patients. I...

Glad to know you're having a productive first week. I'm sure you'll keep learning more and soon you'll feel like more confident. It's hard to feel competent at a new job, and a first nursing job must be trying but I'm sure you'll do great. Good luck...

I was a server for a couple of years at at fast paced breakfast restaurant. We has no hostess, or cashier. We had to do it all, it taught me a great deal about multitasking. I hope it does help me when I become a nurse since I got used to running ar...

Another vote for Khan Academy :) I sometimes watch their videos just for educational fun :)

You obviously have not heard of a very useful advice to survive nursing school. 1) The Instructor is Always Right 2) If you Have any Doubts, Please Read #1 You'll be better off if you focus on yourself. Sent via my iPhone using allnurses.com ❤️

Your question is soooo broad it's actually ridiculous. When you want to learn, the first and most crucial step is to do some research, get a couple of books at the library, or the internet can give you some very informative journals etc. You can as...
