   Orthopaedic Certification

   Sassy-RN replied to Apex36's topic in Orthopaedic

   Sorry for the late reply it… No, that is all I use was the book and some modules! For the modules I believe I did areas where I didn’t feel strong in, such as sports injuries, orthopedic oncology, pediatrics and I can’t remember the other one...

   Sorry this happened to you.... But even if the mom was HIV positive the chances of it being transmitted to you is very very low.

   First Code Blue

   Sassy-RN replied to jeane1090's topic in General Nursing

   I think it sounds like a great ending. Most don’t end up that way... Codes will always be a rush of adrenaline and then emotions afterwards. Sounds like you did everything right! You sound like a good nurse to me.

   Nursing as a career

   Sassy-RN replied to Munzy's topic in Pre-Nursing

   You sound like you are on the right path to me! Keep up the hard work! Make some connections with the healthcare professionals you are working with so you can get some good references.

    Where to start?

    Sassy-RN replied to Strongnurse50's topic in Recovery

    You said “I had some pills in my locker,” not “someone put pills in my locker.” Sounds fishy..... good luck, you’re going to need it.

    How do surgeons treat nurses in your country?

    Most are nice. A few are dicks. Very little interaction outside of OR.

    Orthopaedic Certification

    Sassy-RN replied to Apex36's topic in Orthopaedic

    I took the test and got certified 2 years ago. I borrowed the study guide from a friend who took the prep course. But more importantly I spent about $150 on modules offered on the ONC website. Many of the question were IDENTICAL and specific to the test.

    PARENTS say the darndest things

    Sassy-RN replied to MHDNURSE's topic in School

    When I worked in a PEDS clinic, a mom once told me she didn’t want her son to have MMR vaccine, because “it causes Down Syndrome.” Hopefully that child gets through life okay with a mother that dumb!
