  1. Why do nurses "eat their young"?

    adnstudent44 replied to hope4ccns's topic in General Students

    why is it okay for the numerous threads of nurses complaining about doctors but its not okay here? sounds like a double standard to

  2. Why do nurses "eat their young"?

    adnstudent44 replied to hope4ccns's topic in General Students

    So now nurses are assuming nursing students are guilty before even proven so? this to me, if anything were ever to be called it, is NETY. Also, if students aren't there to help the nurses, why are so...

    I appreciate your response @ruby

  4. Why do nurses "eat their young"?

    adnstudent44 replied to hope4ccns's topic in General Students

    Putting a patient first does not mean you have to also treat other people poorly or crappy, the nurses I have worked with have told us numerous times when they are too busy and should not be...

  5. Why do nurses "eat their young"?

    adnstudent44 replied to hope4ccns's topic in General Students

    Telling the OP that nurses might treat students poorly because we "don't know the color of our stethoscope," wasn't very helpful in her situation since she had already explained that she was being...

  6. Why do nurses "eat their young"?

    adnstudent44 replied to hope4ccns's topic in General Students

    I would say that in my previous post I was not quick to say nurses eat their young. In fact I gave specific reasons as to why I thought some nurses eat their young, because as I said before, that is...

  7. Why do nurses "eat their young"?

    adnstudent44 replied to hope4ccns's topic in General Students

    I understood what you wrote, I just thought it was off topic. The OP asked why nurses eat their young, are you trying to say that nurses never do this? or that if they behave a certain way its always...

  8. Why do nurses "eat their young"?

    adnstudent44 replied to hope4ccns's topic in General Students

    I'm confused, where in the OP's post did it say that she was expecting any of what you describe from the nurse? She was readily doing what she was supposed to, the nurse did not have to go looking for...

  9. Why do nurses "eat their young"?

    adnstudent44 replied to hope4ccns's topic in General Students

    I completely agree, what you describe there is a potential "burnt out nurse," which unfortunately means he/she will be a horrible mentor towards nursing students. I have been taught time and time...

  10. Why do nurses "eat their young"?

    adnstudent44 replied to hope4ccns's topic in General Students

    The OP said nothing about the nurse giving her constructive criticism in her experience, it was clear the nurse just wanted to make her shift easier for herself and disregarded the student nurse and...

  11. Nursing School changing criteria to pass classes

    adnstudent44 replied to Reese2012's topic in General Students

    ours is 80% too and like another poster said, you can't round up- so if you have a 79.9 you are screwed. An A is 92 and up too, so if you get a 91.9 its a B. Also, you have to get the 80 in your...

  12. First Clinicals; what to bring?!

    adnstudent44 posted a topic in General Students

    Hi, I tried searching other threads to see if this question has been asked before because I feel like it probably was, but I couldn't find anything. So I decided to ask it myself: What are the key...

    adnstudent44 replied to adnstudent44's topic in General Students

  17. Getting "points back" on a test

    adnstudent44 posted a topic in General Students

    So we have one professor this semester who will go over our exams with us after we have all taken it, and often will sometimes decide to give points back to students if the choice they picked "made...

    adnstudent44 replied to adnstudent44's topic in General Students

    adnstudent44 replied to adnstudent44's topic in General Students

  20. ATI Testing for BSN Students

    adnstudent44 replied to Jen2010's topic in General Students

    @EMT2studentnurse I'm going to double check, but im pretty sure our ATI "professor" keeps sections on the ATI website locked to us, and only opens up sections as she sees fit and when she wants us to...

    Thanks for all the advice everyone! I guess I'll just keep my head down, I hadn't thought about how when they take their NClex licensing exam they will have a more difficult time. @aubgurl- I wasn't...
