    Why try the PVT?

    As a fellow nurse, I wouldn't have jumped off the edge like that, personally. I realize you're new here, only a few posts, so maybe you don't know the climate or culture of AN as yet....and while I...

    Why try the PVT?

    Hey, chill! All I saw was that you were preparing to test, NOT that you had PASSED the test. Simple mistake, and I was being polite, I had no intention of insulting you. People do this ALL the time...

    Anti-vax nurses? Are you serious?

    Hey, careful, she's an MD. Therefore, she knows about everything and anything medical. YOU, on the other hand, are just a nurse and therefore cannot possibly understand things at that shrink's...

    PVT 75 questions??

    I'm having deja vu, LOL...didn't we just do this? Forget what kinds of questions were on your test. It doesn't matter. Nor does it matter about SATA or anything else. As already stated, California...

    Why try the PVT?

    Not exactly. The risk is that people frequently ignore the advice in this forum, and start punching numbers on their phone the moment they walk out of the testing center. Or an hour later. Or two....

    Anti-vax nurses? Are you serious?

    I didn't realize there was so much more on the table than vaccinations. Personally, I resist "eating crap". I said it before and I'll say it again (as is the case with many others on this thread):...

    Anti-vax nurses? Are you serious?

    Late on this, am going back to the origins of this thread and wanted to comment. I, too, have an autistic child, and when telling this to an acquaintance when my son was quite young, she informed me...

    Anti-vax nurses? Are you serious?

    If this is what is happening, then I would hope that someone who is the recipient of such "education" reports a nurse who is presenting unsubstantiated (and potentially harmful) opinions as medical...

    Anti-vax nurses? Are you serious?

    Then what, exactly, do you "not withhold" from your patients (English error removed)? What are you providing to them beyond what you consider too

    Anti-vax nurses? Are you serious?

    That's actually what I'm concerned about, thank you for responding. I'm curious as to what "additional" education is being provided, beyond the CDC's VIS pages for each

    Anti-vax nurses? Are you serious?

    It's definitely become a strange world when the far-right and far-left agree on something.....although the crux of this article is PRO, I'm surprised at the number of ultra-conservatives and...

    Anti-vax nurses? Are you serious?

    No, I didn't waste more time than that post deserved. Actually THIS post affords it more time than it deserved as well. Not sure how much time YOU think it was worth, but.....I owe it nothing more....

    Anti-vax nurses? Are you serious?

    So what is it that you do or say, as a nurse, to educate your patients further concerning the risk of vaccinations? Do you offer information verbally, or present them with printed material? And if...

    Anti-vax nurses? Are you serious?

    holistically.... Wow, just wow. I started to respond to various points of your rant, but there were just so many errors, fallacies, half-truths and such in your text I couldn't possibly get to them...

    Anti-vax nurses? Are you serious?

    I'm wondering just how many people with higher degrees feel that they have "spent a lot of money to get a piece of paper"; that blank notebook paper is the equivalent value of that education. Or if...

    Something you won't be qualified to do until you have enough experience to be in charge of a unit, its nursing staff and its patients. Different facilities will have different determinations as to...

    New nurse

    If you're only just about to start a BSN program, you're a long way from being drained and deciding this is a "bad profession" (spelling corrected). Get through school first, obtain a job, and then...

    Nclex Results On Hold

    FOUR actual days? To date, I have only heard of 72 hours....was yours really that long (in hours) or did it just seem like it? :) Did you count the day you took it as Day One? And

    CA NCLEX Results

    If you read around this forum, you will find that California is pretty random in its approach to updating license info on its website. There are reports of seeing updates in only a day or two, but...

    PVT 75 questions??

    First, calm down and breathe! You can and you will wait for official results, what choice do you have? As for PVT: if it has been at least 24 hours since you FINISHED the exam, and you cannot...
