  1. Undergrad pharmacology before adv pharm?

    RN007 replied to RN007's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Thank you so much for this info! I will certainly look into the course. It sounds great. How do they proctor exams if it's online? Thanks

  2. Vanderbilt NP program..help!

    RN007 replied to BrandiannRN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I looked at Vandy for the Palliative Care option, but decided against it because of the way the program is set up (having to spend a week a month there). I am starting an all-online FNP program in...

  3. Undergrad pharmacology before adv pharm?

    RN007 replied to RN007's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Thanks, everyone, for your advice. Yes, I already have a degree from another field (a graduate degree, actually). I also plan to pursue the MSN part time so I'll have nursing experience by the time I...

  4. "It shouldn't be that hard to be a nurse"

    RN007 replied to SharonH, RN's topic in General Nursing

    I agree. I don't think a 3.29 is a bad GPA. Many (most?) nursing programs require a B average anyway, don't they? A higher GPA doesn't guarantee a better graduate -- or nurse .... Just my .02 worth....

  5. NCLEX and Erickson

    RN007 posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Hello, Friends, I graduate a week from today and will start studying for NCLEX-RN soon (after Monday's final ERI exit exam). My weakest area is peds and developmental stages. I have kids and have the...

    RN007 replied to RN007's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

  7. On-line RN-BSN or MSN programs

    RN007 replied to KIttyRN712's topic in General Nursing

    I plan to begin an online MSN program in January. I graduate May 5 with an ADN and my new employer's education benefit will have kicked in by then. (I can't afford any more student loans!) There are...

  8. I was wondering

    RN007 replied to raebabelvn's topic in Oncology

    And their families appreciate everything you do

  9. Is everyone afraid to give Morphine?

    RN007 replied to prostreetrig's topic in Oncology

    I am an (older) RN student finishing up 100 hrs in a hospice rotation (and love it). I have not had any families hesitate over morphine. All of them wanted to see the pain alleviated. However, having...

  10. computers and quality of life

    RN007 replied to Bibagirl's topic in General Nursing

    Don't quit! There has to be a resource out there for you--we just have to find it. Does your school have a computer center? Some computer geeks (spoken w/ affection) love to help. I am very computer...

  11. I need some prayers for a dear person

    RN007 replied to sissiesmama's topic in General Nursing

    You and your aunt are in my thoughts and prayers. Please keep us posted on her progress

  12. I was wondering

    RN007 replied to raebabelvn's topic in Oncology

    I believe one of our moderators, janfrn, used to be a pediatric oncology nurse. You might send her a message: https://allnurses.com/forums/members/12420.html I am scheduled to graduate in May and am...

  13. What happened to the Message Board

    RN007 replied to pat8585's topic in General Nursing

    I'm old. I don't like change. First it was my hairspray. Now this

  14. Medscape MedPulse® CE Edition

    RN007 replied to crb613's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks so much for info about Medscape. What a great resource. I can't believe I didn't know about it before. I graduate in May and it will be an excellent place to study during my final month!...

  15. Help! Learning... Vit B injections.

    RN007 replied to Epona's topic in General Nursing

    Is there a key in the drug book that gives what those mean? I'm thinking integumentary and

  16. Need advice from experienced RN's

    RN007 replied to bamaRN34's topic in General Nursing

    Would they let you spend a 1/2 day in the SICU so you can see it in action? Be sure and ask about orientation. Also, would PACU interest you? Seems like the perfect place after working OR. I agree...

  17. New Update re 23 yo son with brain cancer

    RN007 replied to Ashera's topic in Oncology

    My prayers are with you, Pamela. As a mother of two boys, I can't even come close to imagining how you must feel. Hang in there--and do for you, too.

  18. Disgusting worm dream.. Could this really happen?

    RN007 replied to DaughteroftheKing's topic in General Nursing

    It's real:

  19. Would you put your family member in a LTC facility?

    RN007 replied to Cattitude's topic in General Nursing

    Nope, not me. I visited pts in nursing homes yesterday via my Hospice rotation. I would sell everything I own and take out a loan if I had to to keep my mother at home. She's 86, has COPD but does...

  20. Failing In Ky

    RN007 replied to FACE069's topic in General Nursing

    I, too, am in a program that seems to be 'sticking it' to us the last semester. It doesn't sound as bad as yours, though. Don't give up. Study every minute you can. If you don't already, do as many...

  21. For those who have gone before me.....

    RN007 replied to Epona's topic in General Nursing

    Yeah, I study all the time. I can't say I've had to teach myself everything (well, I did in micro) but the nursing instructors will tell us what we need to know that wasn't gone over in class. As for...

  22. Why are RN's so fat!

    RN007 replied to MoriahRoseRN's topic in General Nursing

    :rotfl:

  23. Why are RN's so fat!

    RN007 replied to MoriahRoseRN's topic in General Nursing

    People need to be reminded that nurses are not superbeings. Regardless of their education, nurses are human, like everyone

  24. Strange S.O.

    RN007 replied to joeb1's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Ditto. We have male ob-gyns birthing babies; we need male ob nurses. Hang in there, joeb1. I admire you for doing what you enjoy!

  25. Electronic stethoscope?

    RN007 posted a topic in General Nursing

    I have had instances lately where I wasn't able to hear heart sounds. Both pts were rather large. I wonder if any of you use electronic steths and like them that much better than regular ones? Any...
