    Pearson Vue Trick 2014

    RNsRWe replied to Mandy,GN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    jenni: yes, this has happened. More than once, more than twice, as evidenced by information posted by members of this website. The NCLEX is scored by the computer TWICE. If a person enters their CC...

    RNsRWe replied to prnstat1's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    States all have their own regulations and requirements for receiving a nursing license from that State. If you do not meet the requirements, you will not be issued a license. The NCLEX is a national...

    Ebola Nursing Survey: to Quarantine or Not to Quarantine

    RNsRWe replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Ah, I see what you're saying. You have the opinion that Ms. Hickox IS being FAVORABLY viewed by the majority of the American public, is that correct? You said you disagreed with my opinion that she...

    RNsRWe replied to Julie Reyes's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I am no authority, but doesn't WC currently cover workers who contract any illness or injury (that requires medical care and time off work) if they can prove it was directly related to their...

    RN Detained and Quarantined As Ebola Hysteria Reaches a New Low

    RNsRWe replied to MissyWrite's topic in Disaster Preparation

    y'know, I thought that, but I wasn't aware that any nursing assistants were licensed......thought they had certifications, not actual licenses. Then again, now I do seem to remember something about...

    Ebola Nursing Survey: to Quarantine or Not to Quarantine

    RNsRWe replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in Disaster Preparation

    You want me to post a scientific survey that supports my opinion that the general public's opinion is a negative one toward Kaci Hickox? Do we really need a 'scientific survey' for this?? Ok....

    to pmabraham: Just taking a moment to respond to your query about current studies and links between thimerosol and autism: there is none. No link exists between the MMR vaccine and autism, or for...

    Ebola Nursing Survey: to Quarantine or Not to Quarantine

    RNsRWe replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I understand, really. And while I assure you I don't get my information from Fox (actually, that network is good entertainment value, IMHO!), it really doesn't matter what *I* think, nor to be...

    Ebola Nursing Survey: to Quarantine or Not to Quarantine

    RNsRWe replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Wow, I didn't actually expect all the results to be as they are. I am in agreement with some, disagreement with others, but it is what it is. Her public image is not good.....and while we can debate...

    Ebola Nursing Survey: to Quarantine or Not to Quarantine

    RNsRWe replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Regardless of the sources, and the editing process, her image is what it is. Unfortunately, she DOES have a POOR image in the general media. Whether or not she has fans on AN doesn'tmuch matter if...

    Ebola Nursing Survey: to Quarantine or Not to Quarantine

    RNsRWe replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in Disaster Preparation

    In my opininion, Kaci Hickox has not "gone above and beyond to alleviate everyone's fear". The image that she presents through the media doesn't make her look good; IMHO it makes her look the...

    Ebola Nursing Survey: to Quarantine or Not to Quarantine

    RNsRWe replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in Disaster Preparation

    And I don't really want to imagine the exchange of body fluids required for such an infection to 'take'..! Then again, if she were to be randomly spitting on trees during her bike ride, and some poor...

    generic or brand name in nclex

    RNsRWe replied to jot22's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    According to the FAQ of the NCSBN website, the NCLEX will be moving toward using primarily generic medication names because brand names can and do change. It would benefit you to know all medications...

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

    I do wish you luck, but there's something you might want to keep in mind.....might help with the anxiety, I hope. The number of questions you got does not indicate any likelihood of your passing OR...

    Like our job wasn't tough enough. Now, we have to deal with Ebola hysteria.

    RNsRWe replied to Brian's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Reminds me of the guy talking with my dh one day. DH said "aren't you concerned about cancer?" as he watched the guy smoke, engulfed in a cloud of smoke, and somehow the topic was raised. The guy...

    Support Kaci Hickox

    RNsRWe replied to nurse2033's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Few topics are more divisive, and more filled with misinformation, than this one. Maybe none, even. Kasi Hickox is a hero; no, she's the devil. Ebola is spread as easily as mayonnaise on a hot day;...

    RNsRWe replied to EquinoxSolstice92's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Why have your mom sit in the parking lot for hours? Do you have a cell phone, and does she? If so, you CAN bring your cell to the testing site, and HAND IT OVER to the person who is collecting...

    RN Detained and Quarantined As Ebola Hysteria Reaches a New Low

    RNsRWe replied to MissyWrite's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Yesterday I was asked (at work, by a non-nursing member of the staff) what I thought of "that nurse with Ebola who won't do the quarantine". I then asked him WHAT nurse had Ebola, and was refusing...

    Can job termination occur if nurses do not get the flu shot and refuse to wear a mask

    RNsRWe replied to helen2346's topic in Disaster Preparation

    My tone is not hostile. It is, however, clearly irritated at what you posted, and I think it's a reasonable reaction to what I perceive as your ethically-challenged diatribe against rational...
