    doubt

    RNsRWe replied to patience5255's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Ok. I don't seem to be able to make you see how you are NOT comforting people, but causing more anxiety; so be it. Most people choose a test center because it's nearest their home, or has the most...

    doubt

    RNsRWe replied to patience5255's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Not sure where to go with this. I do hope you don't take at face value what anyone behind any counter in any business says about their ability to be 'nicer' than others in the same...

    Have faith and don't ever give up!!!!

    RNsRWe replied to Faith, RN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    "I believe in God, there is no way on earth I could have passed Nclex on my own. It was 100% God..." Faith I am a believer in G'd, but I disagree that your passing of a test was "100% G'd". No, I...

    Nina Pham and/or Amber Vinson

    RNsRWe replied to logank622's topic in Disaster Preparation

    If either of you (Pham, Vinson) is reading this, know that MOST of us have the utmost compassion for what you are going through. You didn't ask for it, you didn't agree willingly to become ill, and...

    New Nurse: I'm trying to look at this from your POV, and I can certainly recall being a new RN myself. I can recall during my early days, on orientation and after, when I would look around me and see...

    *rolling my eyes*

    RNsRWe replied to OhioCCRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Hmmm. Well, since hindsight IS always 20/20, I'm sure every hospital supervisor would (now) also say what you're saying, that this wasn't "an average elevated temp". BUT, in the moment, at a time...

    RNsRWe replied to iDrumKing's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Your own nursing program advisor should know whether it fits the bill for a GE course for the nursing program. It's akin to basic-level social studies coursework, and if you need a GE for the degree...

    Since you are very close to the situation (it is your friend), you probably don't see what is most obvious to those of us farther away from it: your friend is not competent to practice as a nurse of...

    The Pearson trick

    RNsRWe replied to richfield1977's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    QR are supposed to be available 48 hours after completion of your exam. Has it been that long? If you tried the PVT at least 24 hours after testing and AFTER SUBMISSION of your credit card number...

    I don't have a hard time picturing this mode of transmission at ALL. Guy touches surface where contagion is sitting---doesn't notice, doesn't see it, doesn't feel it (after all, he's kinda...

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

    And one further: I'll BET that the nurses were also told they'd be "just fine" and "just be careful". AND that they HAD to go in that

    URGENT: Are CDC Ebola Guidelines 'Good Enough'?

    RNsRWe replied to MissyWrite's topic in Disaster Preparation

    More likely, they were counting on the public to say "well, if only they'd done it CORRECTLY, if only they weren't CARELESS, they'd be just fine..." Nuts to that
