  1. Medical Assistant as school nurse

    Heaven-Leigh replied to smileitout's topic in School

    My friends sister attended a two day cna course with me and she is now the "nurse" for a middle school with no RN or Lpn on site and allowed to administer medications. I think they labeled her a...

  2. CNA impersonating RN

    Heaven-Leigh posted a topic in General Nursing

    I'm not really sure where this goes, but I ran into an old friend the other day and asked how his family was doing. My friend's sister has worked as a CNA for years, but never went to nursing school...

  3. CNA impersonating RN

    Heaven-Leigh replied to Heaven-Leigh's topic in General Nursing

    When in doubt, ask allnurses

  4. CNA impersonating RN

    Heaven-Leigh replied to Heaven-Leigh's topic in General Nursing

    That could be entirely possible that she is a health assistant or UAP. And you are correct, I am just going off of information that her brother has told me. He is the one that told me her name badge...

  5. CNA impersonating RN

    Heaven-Leigh replied to Heaven-Leigh's topic in General Nursing

    Living in a town that is small enough to not have a mall, movie theater, or Walmart/Target and only about 3 grocery stores in the entire town, running into people isn't uncommon by any means. I did...

  6. Being productive after clinical days

    Heaven-Leigh posted a topic in General Students

    Generally, I study every single day except Saturdays & Sundays (my only days I schedule myself "off" from studying). I always write out a schedule of chapters to read everyday, including after...

  7. Iv drip rates

    Heaven-Leigh posted a topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I've been trying to self teach myself about IV drip rates, but I'm stumped on one particular problem: "The nurse sets up a 1000cc bag of normal saline. The IV tubing has a drop factor of 15...

  8. Compromise to be a nurse?

    Heaven-Leigh replied to CNAAJ's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Personally, I would just work for a year & save up as much as I could to restart at the cheaper lpn schools. If you moved in with your sister, you would have to pay out of state tuition. If you...

  9. Iv drip rates

    Heaven-Leigh replied to Heaven-Leigh's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    The answer is 25 drops per minute, but I don't know

  10. How would you break these up?

    Heaven-Leigh replied to kolabee's topic in General Students

    I would take algebra, micro & A&P together. Algebra is pretty basic & pretty much just a step above high school level math courses. I actually found college algebra to be a lot easier than...

  11. Transferred into pensacola State college nursing program

    Heaven-Leigh replied to Shantela30's topic in General Students

    Just checked the PSC website about transfer students, and it states that you will need to provide a letter of eligibility to return to your previous nursing program and be in good standing with the...

  12. The most frustrating part of NS..

    Heaven-Leigh posted a topic in General Students

    ... Is that they don't round. 0.1 point away from an A this semester. I don't know if I should celebrate for all the hard work to earn that B+ or be annoyed that I'm so close yet so far away from that...

  13. The most frustrating part of NS..

    Heaven-Leigh replied to Heaven-Leigh's topic in General Students

    I never said I agreed with rounding up. I only said it was frustrating. I didn't ask for an extra 0.1 to be given to me, nor have I ever argued for points back on a test. I accepted my grade because...

  14. The most frustrating part of NS..

    Heaven-Leigh replied to Heaven-Leigh's topic in General Students

    I am happy that I passed. I'm blessed and thankful to have the opportunity to even be in nursing school & succeed to the next semester. I'm just venting at seeing my grade being that close; don't...

  15. Fluid and electrolytes

    Heaven-Leigh posted a topic in General Students

    I'm reading a chapter in my book about F&E, and even ordered fluid and electrolytes made easy and the fluid & electrolytes demystified book, but it seems like all of the symptoms of K, ca, mg,...

  16. Help! Nursing exams

    Heaven-Leigh posted a topic in General Students

    Hi everyone, I'm in my first semester of nursing school and would like some advice on nursing school exams. A year ago I was in this same class and failed the class by 0.1 points, along with about...

  17. Help! Nursing exams

    Heaven-Leigh replied to Heaven-Leigh's topic in General Students

    My school does not offer tutors and the teacher refuses to go over tests unless you fail a test. As for other students, most are fresh out of high school and every topic ends up about which club is...

  18. What is a "passing grade" for your nursing program?

    Heaven-Leigh replied to aspiringrn1987's topic in General Students

    76 percent for test grades, 100 percent for dosage calculations, and 100 percent for simulations with no rounding. And the 100s from the dosage tests and simulations don't count towards your grade...

  19. How much do you make as a tech?

    Heaven-Leigh replied to RCBR's topic in Patient Care Technician, Assistants

    Northwest Florida: $9 hour. Shift diff is $1 more for night shifts and $2 for weekends regardless of

  20. Rudeness: Is this normal?

    Heaven-Leigh posted a topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I recently got hired on for my first cna job at an assisted living facility. The place looks nice, but my co-workers attitudes are just outright nasty towards the residents. On my first day of...
