    Anti-vax nurses? Are you serious?

    RNsRWe replied to dinah77's topic in Disaster Preparation

    "Taking care" would imply she actually PROVIDES care. She always keeps at least 3 feet away from anyone, which means if you're her patient she cannot assess (or insert or d/c) your IV, push meds,...

    If you can't pass the NCLEX after three attempts....LVN license only!

    RNsRWe replied to neonurse97's topic in General Nursing

    Kinda wish I HAD started using this thread as a drinking game. I'd be bagged by now, instead of merely tired and ready to go

    RNsRWe replied to neonurse97's topic in General Nursing

    I'm thinking this should be a drinking game, in which every time someone posts "consolation prize" the rest of us get to indulge Seriously, though, OP.....not only a wacky idea but one that if put...

    Are you a nurse with "alternative" spiritual beliefs?

    RNsRWe replied to GadgetRN71's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    I also don't think of alternative (or, perhaps more accurately, complementary) treatments as having a religious bent. Because the original practitioners or 'inventors' of these routines didn't...

    mandatory flu shot

    RNsRWe replied to Mando7475's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Not forgetting this little nugget; none of these potential CODs has a vaccine available to prevent it like, say....influenza. And if they did.....you can bet people would line up for those shots no...

    My NCLEX

    RNsRWe replied to Logi23's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Congratulations, and welcome to the fold! Just two quick notes: SATA questions really don't mean anything; people who say otherwise, believe that it means you are "doing well" are mistaken. They are...

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

    It's bolded because FlyingScot put it that way, and has been trying to explain to you why you are NOT giving good advice, why it is NOT helpful to tell people to do the PVT as soon as you did. Your...

    Did I pass or not??????

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

    No problem. Unfortunately the board gets mucked up with bad advice thrown on top of good. The people who tell you that the PVT is reliable prior to 24 hours (because they did it that way) are simply...

    Did I pass or not??????

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

    You joined over two years ago, but have read nothing about the PVT in all that time? Nor now, before posting this question? To answer you, simply put, you do not know if you passed, as you did not...

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

    But no matter, new grads will continue to come here, find the first thread that says PVT or NCLEX and use their very first post to say "pvt worked for me only 15 minutes after test, it's 100%...

    I'm going to start by clarifying that I in NO WAY condone inappropriate or unprofessional behavior by any instructor in a clinical setting. Going to make it crystal clear that examples of that would...

    Just had to go there, couldn't help yourself? Too bad, I was there to support your right to discuss this here. No, this statement of yours is not agreeable. I happen to be a nurse who has faith in...

    RNsRWe replied to Mando7475's topic in Disaster Preparation

    When losing a debate, accuse the others of being bullies. When facing clear indications that the others are more correct in their statements than you, just say they aren't. "Because I said" is also...

    NCLEX- how many attempts is too many?

    A disability that does not impair one from competent nursing practice can be accomodated. Someone who cannot effectively communicate in the English language cannot be considered minimally competent...

    NCLEX- how many attempts is too many?

    RNsRWe replied to dinah77's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Absolutely thought of, and discussed at length, many times throughout this website. But the fact remains that one must demonstrate a minimum competency to begin practice as a nurse; if one attends a...

    Anti-vax nurses? Are you serious?

    RNsRWe replied to dinah77's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Disregarding the "notion spewing" comment for now, the reductions in usage of the preservative is a direct result of pressure and irrational fears of those who believe that thimerosol was the cause of...

    Failed Nclex..Again

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

    My suggestion would have been to not do the PVT prematurely, as you did. It's probable that you did fail, but you paid for a new test only after your exam was scored one time, not finalized. I'm...

    NCLEX-PN shut off after 85 and it's been 48+ hrs and results still not available.

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

    Did you do this prior to August 2014? Because if you did it later....doing the PVT and "not getting the good pop up" would mean you had actually paid $200 (or had your card declined for INSF). After...
