Well im a 22/M who picked nursing as a career with hopes of being on the helo. while i work toward my RN i am workin on a cardiac floor. My problems arise from me not being able to take part in a "code brown" i mean i get so sick, vomit at times and ...

ok so im a new grad any links to the procedure?

OK so last night im @ the front desk and the phone rings, charge nurse answers and says "what?" being a tele floor about the only calls we get @ night are "you have leads off in 4406" so i look @ the monitors and i see a pt who is brady ie 39 . well ...

fly nurse? im a LPN now Just got into my RN program and in a year ill do my emt-p

charge nurse did the paperwork. very good idea, thank you

no but tonight im going to have security open the edu office where there is a stocked unlocked crash cart and im going to have a mock code for all the nurses on the floor tonight.

OK i love my pt's and i really enjoy being a nurse, however i am already sick of the "nursing thought process" i want to know the medicine aspect of everything. i guess what im saying is should i go to med school? Do u think a nurse would make a goo...

i have thought about it many times, however i once was eating with a surgeon and we where talking about my future goals and i said something about becoming a NP and the doc went into detail about how even NP still are more nursing oriented then medic...

you would??? and u would end up infront of ur BON. If there is no DNR on the chart or in my hands that man would be a full blown code!

we also have techs that set in a tele room. howvere 90% of are nurses r ACLS and can read the strips, however we dont have time to set and watch the monitors on the floor so its nice to have someone call through a direct line and say hey 4406 is in V...

fastest RN is 2 years add another 1/2-1 for pre reqs.

I spent the 2 weeks in the nursery as apposed to bein on the LD/ob floor. Now i had a great time with the kiddos, but would have been in over my head with the moms for sure

see emesis, snot, ne oral secretions do not bother me at all. I was told by the House Sup the other day that i had choosen the wrong career because i refused to tech for 26 pts. I told her straight up if u need techs higher them and dont ask us nurse...

On my unit it goes: O2 2-4L NC, NTG SL 1tab q 5 x3, Morphine IVP, Call doc if un relieved

This comment makes me very angry, i am a young male nurse and i refuse to do a female cath without another person in the room. Some pts are senile, and whats to stop them from saying he touched me here or did this to me. You dont have to do my job bu...

i went straight into a step down cardiac unit after school. I did these to be marketable for the ER/PICU

looks like we will be adding another nurse to our list on 9/7. Good luck to you!!!!

haha suck for your bro, we had ceil blue scrubs and now that im a nurse i dont think i will ever wear that color again.

haha i had my results on the bon and i had my lic in hand, And i still payed the 8 bucks to see pass. just wanted to make sure there where not ne errors anywhere. Now thats sad!

9/7

got the real deal 2 days after my test. : )

Im in Oklahoma and i got mine about 48hrs to the minute after taken my Nclex. It got here before pearsonvue posted my results

So true, having your feet wet will help. Even if you want to work as an aid you will still gain knowledge.

I tested 7/18, i got between 90-100 Q's and i passed. for me there where Alot of meds prolly about 12. However that is a weak point for me and the computer focused in on it. Mostly there where pt teaching, what to reinforce. If your having a hard tim...
