  1. Readiness for enhance comfort - HELP!!

    RunBabyRN replied to gikg's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Does your ND have to be related to only the tinnitus, or are you taking the whole patient into account? Generally, you want to look at the whole patient, and sometimes, the ND has nothing to do with...

  2. How to improve clinical skills

    RunBabyRN replied to mugs's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Speed comes with repetition. Accuracy is more important than

  3. Less than 1 month to study?

    RunBabyRN replied to Hibbzem17's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I only used the ATI study manual. I read it cover to cover, and tabbed the pages I needed to review. Then I went back and focused on just that stuff. It didn't take me very long, maybe a few days...

  4. Quick question about the TEAS test

    RunBabyRN replied to kaagustin's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    You need to take it before you apply. You only have to take it once, and then you request that ATI send the transcript to the schools. Look at the program websites. This will generally be on there....

  5. We're not here for that

    RunBabyRN replied to happynurse49's topic in General Students

    I'm always floored when this type of thing comes up. What exactly do some people think we're doing in nursing school? That somehow we're "above" this sort of thing? What about respecting patients...

  6. Relocating for Nursing School?

    RunBabyRN replied to birdie_blue's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Be aware that many programs are not accepting out-of-state applicants. Most programs around the country are impacted. I would say to apply to as many programs as possible. Narrow your search your...

  7. Nurse of 10 years can't start IV's

    RunBabyRN replied to peaceful2100's topic in General Nursing

    I would take an IV course over phlebotomy, as the skills and equipment are

  8. Precepting in postpartum

    RunBabyRN posted a topic in Ob/Gyn

    Hi all! I'll be precepting in postpartum this semester. I'd like to work either in PP or L&D, either would be fine (though eventually L&D, since I plan to be a CNM/WHNP). I have lactation...

  9. Precepting in postpartum

    RunBabyRN replied to RunBabyRN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Thanks for the tips! So far it's going well, and definitely confirming (not that I needed confirmation) that OB nursing is what I love!

  10. Recommendation letters for new grads! Advice?

    RunBabyRN replied to b33ni's topic in General Students

    I'm glad you asked this! I'm in the same place as you, and am trying to figure out navigating through letters of recommendation. The way the job market is here, I plan to cast a wide net, like you,...

  12. How many nursing programs should I apply to?

    RunBabyRN replied to MsDanielle's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Oh, and as far as figuring out schools, the web is your friend. Are you considering a city? See what universities are there, then search each university to see if they offer nursing. Most nursing...

  13. How many nursing programs should I apply to?

    RunBabyRN replied to MsDanielle's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Apply to as many schools as you'd consider attending. I applied to 10 schools my first time around and got into 2; long story why I had to apply the next year, but I did and got

  14. please where can i find a physics lab online

    RunBabyRN replied to simonetaa7's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    How on earth do you expect to be able to do a physics lab online?? I'm really confused. Are you familiar with what lab usually entails? Like, skills the instructor needs to OBSERVE you

  15. Last class in progress,apply to LBCC and others

    RunBabyRN replied to GOODMED's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You can call the department and find out. Their nursing website may also have that information. Usually it's also on the application whether or not outstanding prereqs are

  16. Immunization Records?

    RunBabyRN replied to Miss.LeoRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Agreed, get to the doctor. For some, they can do a blood test to see if you're already good to go. For others (like TDaP), they may just give it to you. But if you need your hep B series, best to...

  17. CSULB pre-nursing also applying to LBCC

    RunBabyRN replied to GOODMED's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If she wants to be a nurse, don't waste time and money on another degree. It'll set her back for financial aid and other resources, and may even limit her options for attending a university later, as...

  18. Student Nurse "Help me!" Threads

    RunBabyRN replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    I think there's a big difference, though, between teaching a groups of new students in class, versus a post on a forum that shows that someone CLEARLY didn't take the time to scroll down, where FOUR...

  19. Student Nurse "Help me!" Threads

    RunBabyRN replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    The worst!! Those are just awful! Sometimes I have to laugh at them. They likely don't have the humility needed to become a nurse! But I'm likely

  20. Have SO Many questions for experienced RNs in Ob/Gyn Nursng

    RunBabyRN replied to jadabraxton96's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Bear with me, as I'm still a student, but I am precepting in post partum, and have kept my finger on the pulse of this area quite steadily for years. @cayenne06- LDRP!! Oh how I wish we had it...

    One specific faculty member- YOU ARE FREAKING AWESOME. Everyone in the program feels this way. You ride us hard and support us and champion behind us, and we love you for it! We want to nominate...

  23. Second Semester, i hate it

    RunBabyRN replied to palamino98's topic in General Students

    A LOT of this second year has been stuff we could have done online. The lectures were basically reading the Power Points aloud, and the Power Points are posted online, so it's been pretty self-taught...

  24. I feel like I don't know anything!

    RunBabyRN replied to Megatron89's topic in General Students

    How are you doing in your program? A lot of my classmates (and I) feel like sometimes. Like we're just LOST in a discussion, or have NO idea about meds, or whatever. How do you feel your style of...

    RunBabyRN replied to omegapsiphi's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
