    BeachsideRN replied to CordaeP's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Wouldn't it be 4.8ml since the reconstitution says for IV to add and additional 10ml NS, making total volume 20ml? Edit ... Or would it be 12.4ml since it says (reread) an additional 10ml per

    Could research publications make it difficult to find a job?

    BeachsideRN replied to Nursey22783's topic in General Nursing

    Eek. Sounds like a case of jealousy sadly. As long as you are published in per reviewed publications with a sound research methodology it certainly should not hinder your application. Perhaps as a PP...

    I need advice...

    BeachsideRN replied to Jonahyona's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Talk to your professor and advisor. If you're actually failing with no chance of passing you should drop. But some nursing schools only allow you to attempt a class a limited number of times so you...

    Your response to "there is a high demand for nurses"

    BeachsideRN replied to Ecl09's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    In response to the nursing shortage. I think it's all location, if you are willing to relocate, if you are willing to broaden your search and not limit yourself to acute care/specialty. Here in NOLA...

    BeachsideRN replied to JedaM's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    When I was applying to schools what I did was put all the pre requisites and application deadlines, gpa requirements etc for each school into an excel spreadsheet. That way they were all in one easy...

    BeachsideRN replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in General Nursing

    Ah the fresh new mommy hormones.... Don't make any major life changing decisions right now. Enjoy your new baby and don't stress. I waited 5 months to go back to work (partially because I was laud off...

    BeachsideRN replied to chold635's topic in LPN to RN

    Academic suspension and probation is likely different than what happened to you. Typically academic suspension results in being dismissed from a program not made to sit out for a day. The best way to...

    Can't seem to get my foot in the door

    BeachsideRN replied to mishmosh20's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Personally I would steer away from ADN program simply because the employment market is leaning toward only hiring BSNs in many acute care settings. So it may be nearly impossible to get a job much...

    concerns about seeking mental health treatment

    BeachsideRN replied to brittanypaige93's topic in Nurse Disabilities

    Call your OB. If it's just the baby blues or even mild PPD they can help you work through it. You owe it to yourself together help. You might have to report to the board if they put you on an SSRI or...

    Sociology

    BeachsideRN replied to w292737's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think basic sociology is an important foundation to have, especially in nursing because it helps to teach you to get outside of your head when dealing with cultures that are different and you may...

    The Clinical Ladder

    BeachsideRN posted a topic in General Nursing

    Forgive me if this is a 'stupid' question. But what exactly does this mean? I am a new nursing student. I see this phrase repeatedly on this forum, but never with an explanation of exactly what the...

    Question about education

    BeachsideRN replied to kraftjd's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Right but you would still need those pre reqs if you were applying to the nursing portion of a traditional program so it is in fact an accelerated way to get to RN, at least in my state. PP had stated...

    Scrub tops for petite with larger chest?

    BeachsideRN replied to crossfitnurse's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    That's a major bummer. Do you own a sewing machine or know someone that does? You could always tailor tops by adding buttons or darts to create the more form fitted look. I have to alter all my pants...

    Question about education

    BeachsideRN replied to kraftjd's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Here (Louisiana) the aBSN programs are approximately 22 months straight through. Whereas the traditional BSN programs are 5-6 semesters with no summer semesters. So the 22 months shaves about a year...

    Scrub tops for petite with larger chest?

    BeachsideRN replied to crossfitnurse's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I like the Greys anatomy tops that have the double button in the back. I was even able to wear them when my big boobs (36 dd) grew to size obnoxious (38f) after I had my baby. The wonder wink are my...

    Smart Enough?

    BeachsideRN replied to happyinmyheart's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You got accepted to an early admit RN BSN program. You ARE smart enough. Schools typically don't accept students they don't think will succeed. It is very costly To educate students, they don't want...

    BeachsideRN replied to Dia1234's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Have you considered studying to be a registered dietitian? It may be more on par with wanting to work with diabetic patients. It can be clinically based and doesn't involve "nursing" things that you...

    Using an MSN to obtain a PHD in Chemistry
