    Nurse VS Respiratory Therapist?

    RNsRWe replied to Nursetobe25's topic in General Nursing

    "What is better" isn't really the question, is it? After all, a person who wants to be a nurse should not be a RT; someone who wants to be an RT shouldn't become a nurse. Makes sense, yes? What do...

    Pearson Vue Trick--trick no more

    RNsRWe replied to ms.gin728's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    One word of caution: when using "bad" cards, cards with insufficient (or no) funds, it's not unusual to get the message that your card has been declined. All this means is that an attempt was made to...

    Nursing and the Ebola Virus

    What is the good pop-up?

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

    It means the likelihood of passing is in your favor, NOT that you passed. What I mean is, if you got this information less than 24 hours after taking the exam, you are likely between scorings.....and...

    Can Someone Help - Psychiatric Technician Student

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

    Easy there....YOU made the mistake, not the person you are nastily responding to! YOU said "I am a psychiatric nursing student"...YOUR words. One would think that since it was your mistake, you...

    Pearson Vue Trick 2014

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

    Your card being declined means you tried to slip in a bad card and it knew that. It was declined, so no charges went through. Doesn't mean you failed, OR that you passed. People have paid $200 only to...

    Pearson Vue Trick 2014

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

    No, it is not real. Your exam is scored twice. If you try the 'trick' immediately after the exam, you might see something indicating you passed.....but you might just as easily have failed. And...

    Pearson trick: NOT true. Dont rely on it

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

    people....people....PEOPLE! Some notes: 1-Everyone is taken to the credit card page now. It means nothing, does not indicate pass or fail. 2-Once you submit your credit card information, you...

    Clear bowel movement / stool

    RNsRWe replied to Klaatu01's topic in General Nursing

    I believe you will find this thread closed down shortly, as members are not permitted (by the Terms of Service of this site) to ask for or offer medical advice. That said, I do believe you should take...

    new nurse unsure of how to get along

    RNsRWe replied to newnurse11491's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Unfortunately, you've described a common theme across most hospitals across the country. There will ALWAYS be nurses for whom you couldn't possibly do enough before you give report; I have dealt with...

    Why can't a resident read a TB test?

    RNsRWe replied to sistrmoon's topic in General Nursing

    Can't address specifics of various facilities and their policies, but wanted to make a quick note about PPD placement/reading in general. Incorrect placement of a PPD can easily result in a false...

    Nurses in management positions --help!

    RNsRWe replied to OceanMindedRN's topic in General Nursing

    I'm sure we do appreciate the variety of assignments, and their formats. However, an interview that is not "face-to-face" IS expected to be with someone whom you have verified their actual identity,...

    Nursing School

    RNsRWe replied to niyi's topic in International Nursing

    Hello, and welcome to AN! Since your questions are really quite specific to Canada, may I suggest you take a look at the Canadian Nursing Forum here on AllNurses? If you go to the top of this...

    Got good pop up but still nervous

    RNsRWe replied to MommyRN9109's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    It worked for you, and that's great. But it doesn't work all the time....as evidenced by those who have posted on this very site (but I'm guessing you didn't see) that it did not work. That a "pass"...

    Nclex tomorrow! My anxiety level is going up!

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

    Keeping my fingers crossed that you'll be able to KEEP the username you've been using (and not have to change it)....and that it will be well-earned! Goodluck

    Nurses Who Don't Want to be Nurses

    RNsRWe replied to mindofmidwifery's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I am going to admit up front that I read only the first two pages of responses, but I get the gist. So at this point I'm going to answer a question with a question: The OP asked what I think about...

    NCLEX-US and NCLEX-CANADA

    RNsRWe replied to Emenem08's topic in Nurse Registration

    Just what Roser said, but I'll also add that we have a Canadian Nursing forum here on AN; go to the World tab at the top of the webpage, and click that....then follow from there. I'm sure you'll find...

    Nclex RN RESULTS ON HOLD???????

    RNsRWe replied to Lovely3662's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Or....not. Someone JUST posted (a new person, not repeating an older story) that a "good pop up" appeared, yet two days later....fail. Official results count. Tricks do not. Let's be careful out...

    New PVT DOES NOT WORK

    RNsRWe replied to NURSE4LIIFE's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm sorry for your friend's experience. Unfortunately, this is NOT the first 'false-positive'; this has been reported at least two previous times, but (again unfortunately) people like to challenge...

    Nclex RN RESULTS ON HOLD???????

    RNsRWe replied to Lovely3662's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Your results being on hold are most likely because (as you already stated) there was an issue with your palm scan. Typically holds are lifted anywhere from 24-72 hours, once the issue is resolved....

    Charge Nurse?

    RNsRWe replied to EmpathyInAction's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    ^This^ I'm frequently surprised by the number of CNAs who believe they work "under" the RN's license who assigned them a task. They have a certificate that indicates they are capable of completing a...

    Interview With a Student

    RNsRWe replied to BlackMagicGypsy's topic in General Nursing

    Hello, Gypsy, and welcome to AN! I do have some advice for you, but probably not what you expected: this is really not the setting to use to correctly complete your instructor's assignment. The...

    Are American hospitals ready for Ebola?

    RNsRWe replied to texarkana 551's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Absolutely not. The "average" hospital is not equipped to equip all the staff with appropriate PPE, for starters. Frankly, since nosocomial infections are the norm (how many times do we see...
