  1. Found out about CNA's and stethoscopes

    flowerchick replied to TazziRN's topic in General Nursing

    flowerchick replied to Herk's mom's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

  3. Pharmacology: DRUGS YOU ENCOUNTERED IN NCLEX

    flowerchick replied to bettorjon's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    flowerchick replied to Dempather's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I don't have a ton of advice, but I can tell you what I've done. I have had 3 preceptors so far, spent the bulk of my time with one, but still spent shifts with others. Tomorrow I start nights, so I...

    flowerchick replied to crb613's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Ditto what Tazzi said. I carry the malpractice insurance through NSO and if you are a new grad, you get 50% off the first year. I'll take the peace of mind for

  8. Please be careful when helping people

    flowerchick replied to RNKay31's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm sorry this happened to you. I'm sure all of us at some point in our lives, in one way or another, have justified doing something that wasn't 100% right in the spirit of having an even better...

    flowerchick posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Hi all. I took the test Monday at 11:30. The handout regarding quick results that I was given says 2 business days. I've heard that it's 48 hours. Now, if that's the case, is it 48 hours from...

  13. A good point to remember for studying in general

    flowerchick replied to RNsRWe's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Kayla, I think she was just trying to be helpful and factual. Being a message board, 'reputable' needs to be interpreted by the reader. Having just passed the horrible beast (aka: NCLEX-RN) this...

  19. I Passed!!!!!!!!!!!

    flowerchick replied to flowerchick's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Doing questions and reading rationales was what helped me pass. Kaplan is 'most' like NCLEX, however, I don't think it was harder than NCLEX as many have posted. I also liked Mosby CAT. I didn't...
