  2. Morning Sickness

    Sounds like you have some serious yuckiness going on. I'm so sorry. I wasn't that sick with either of my kids, a little more so with my second. I ate crackers in bed several minutes before rising and...

    Hang in there, Chelli. We're all in this together
  4. I am an 'older' student scheduled to graduate an RN in May. I very much would like to be a hospice nurse. The particular hospital I'm interested in has had a hospice nurse job vacancy for about a year...
  5. Questions about being a Nurse

    I'm not a nurse yet (soon, though!) and can't answer. I might suggest you search the forums with the terms "questions nurses" and you may find answers in previous posts. Good

    You're a nurse and we're nurses, so it's nursing
  7. the hug for Tweety thread

    ((((((((((tweety)))))))))) and prayers. hang in there
  8. How has nursing changed?

    There have been comments on the board lately about the current state of nursing and how challenging it is to be in this profession. As a soon-to-be graduate nurse choosing to do something meaningful...
  9. Did any of you neonatal nurse practitioners get your MSN degrees online? If so, from which school? Thanks in advance
  10. seeking stethoscope advice

    Matt59, There was a similar thread on the forum a few weeks ago. If I weren't studying furiously for a respiratory exam, I'd find it for you, but alas, I need to keep my priorities in line. If you...
  11. Do I Have the Right NOT to Be Weighed?

    I like this. Very professional. I'll remember 'client' and 'adhere'. Thanks,
  12. Do I Have the Right NOT to Be Weighed?

    Hey, I understand completely (or as best I can as a person who does not have an eating disorder). One of my best friends has extreme, treatment resistant bipolar disorder, and her daughter is also...
  13. What do you have?

    Just finished my OB rotation and this hospital has 9 LDRPs and 3 gyn rooms. Plus 3 triage beds and its own surgical suite. The hospital where I gave birth twice was about the same setup -- except they...
  14. Okay WOW!

    Awesome, Triage! I have read your posts, maybe even participated in a few threads, and always like what you have to say. You inspire me. I am so happy that a good thing has happened to a fellow nurse...
  15. fear of vomit?

    Yes, it's respiratory slime and oral care for me. Those spittle strings when you pull out the dentures ... gag. I have learned to work quite effectively with my peripheral vision. On the very first...
  16. What's 'Jayco'?

    This week, the Joint Commission was at the hospital where I'm doing clinicals. The nurses kept referring to them as "Jay-co", and I assumed they were mispronoucing the acronym. But when I go to...
  17. What's 'Jayco'?

    Oh, I already have! It's protected; you need a username and password. Only the Phantom ... I mean Jayco ... knows
  18. What's 'Jayco'?

    I'd love to know what's behind that 'Click here to access "Jayco"' button on their website
  19. What's 'Jayco'?

    Apparently, the Joint Commission's picked it up, too, sort of like Federal Express going to FedEx because that's what everyone started calling it
  20. Have started nights on my L&D...

    I finished my OB rotation today and fell in love. I talked to the nurse manager and I think she's interested in me. Of course, it all depends on what's open when I graduate, etc. I'll have to do...
  21. Way to go. You're awesome! Wait ... someone's already said that ... how about awe
  22. Am I wrong?

    My instructors probably would have lashed me for not answering the pt! In other words, you can't win. Just yesterday my OB instructor, a WONDERFUL teacher who also does clinicals, responded to my...
  23. What are your weaknesses?

    Congratulations! Did they ask the question, and how did you answer, if they did? I'll be interviewing soon as a graduate RN and am trying to learn all I can off this forum. Again, good luck in your...
  24. is SDNI the same as DNRI?

    I bet it's a typo. Textbooks are bad for those these days. I wonder if it's supposed to say "DNRIs" instead of
  25. careplan books

    I love my Ackley/Ladwig 'Nursing Diagnosis Handbook'. I also have the Mosby 'Nursing Care Plans', but it's not as comprehensive as the
