  1. ixchel's 8/15 This Week I Have Learned...

    Purple_roses replied to Farawyn's topic in General Nursing

    Hmm. Well...I might make an exception to my hatred of group projects for Ood. Maybe ETA: And Chaos...didn't realize the "2" meant her too. This is why I shouldn't post past my bed

  2. ixchel's 8/15 This Week I Have Learned...

    Purple_roses replied to Farawyn's topic in General Nursing

    Sometimes people are just rude. But sometimes I wonder if it is a glitch in the site. I don't get notifications anymore (and can't figure out why), so it seems like I'm ignoring people.

  3. Ok Class of 2017, Where are you??

    Purple_roses replied to Wifeoffireman's topic in School, College Programs

    augurey that is lot to worry about! I would feel overwhelmed too. I do have a feeling that your teacher will make an exception for you; you have a valid excuse for missing, if you have to. Talk to the...

  4. nursing student transfer opportunity

    Purple_roses replied to sasasa25's topic in General Students

    You will probably start from scratch, and you should. Some people don't find out how awful their program is until they only have a semester left. You've only given up a semester of your life to this...

    Purple_roses replied to Wifeoffireman's topic in School, College Programs

    Those are the exact ones that I bought! They're so

  7. How do you take classes like micro/chem AFTER bsn graduation?

    Purple_roses replied to xVERITAS's topic in General Students

    Would you be able to take any of those online? It wouldn't hurt to ask the school you are planning on applying to. You may not be allowed to, seeing as all of those classes require labs. One thing to...

  10. ixchel's 8/15 This Week I Have Learned...

    Purple_roses replied to Farawyn's topic in General Nursing

    I learned that the first five chapters of my nursing fundamentals book is insanely boring. (But I at least did learn things that I did not

  11. Pts handpicking assignments, and refusing nurses of opposite gender?

    Purple_roses replied to jdub6's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    If it's an issue like sexism etc., then it should be discouraged. I once had a client who wanted me to cancel his appointment with a female NP because he wanted a man--he admitted that he thought men...

  12. Suprise! Nursing School Starts Now

    Purple_roses replied to TheWalkingRN's topic in General Students

    I'm also working part time. I'll be working between 12-24 hours every weekend for a home care agency while starting my first semester. I want to work so that I can avoid taking out unnecessary loans....

  13. Suprise! Nursing School Starts Now

    Purple_roses replied to TheWalkingRN's topic in General Students

    The first thing you should do is schedule an appointment with your doctor, as you usually can't get in right away. Your physical, TB test, and vaccinations can be done at this time. Get the titers...

    Purple_roses replied to TheWalkingRN's topic in General Students

    Congratulations! Augurey offered great advice. What do you have left to

  15. Pts handpicking assignments, and refusing nurses of opposite gender?

    Purple_roses replied to jdub6's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I think it's hard for people who do not work in healthcare to change their mindset on nudity. These people often view nudity in the context of sexuality, whereas those of us involved in healthcare...

    Purple_roses replied to BonnieSc's topic in Patient Medications

    To whom are you

  17. What should I get for nursing school: laptop, tablet, or e-reader?

    Purple_roses replied to NattieWattie's topic in General Students

    I would recommend a laptop. I got an ipad mini with a bluetooth keyboard, thinking I would save money. As it turns out, the program my school uses to turn in homework wasn't supported on my ipad, so I...

  18. First medication error... And the last.

    Purple_roses replied to AnthoScott's topic in General Students

    I would have cried too! How stressful. Thank you for sharing your story and what you learned. Not only will the experience help you to be more mindful in the future, but it will hopefully remind us...

    Purple_roses replied to canigraduate's topic in General Nursing

    Omg!!!! That is flippin' hilarious. I always miss these

  20. Missing my AN friends

    Purple_roses replied to canigraduate's topic in General Nursing

    I wonder if she created another account under a different name? Sometimes I really do wonder about

  21. Missing my AN friends

    Purple_roses replied to canigraduate's topic in General Nursing

    Well for starters, Farawyn has been making a lot of spelling errors. Her status in the AN writing club (or whatever we're calling it) is at stake. Also, the term "COB" apparently annoys a lot of...

  22. Missing my AN friends

    Purple_roses replied to canigraduate's topic in General Nursing

    By the time I got to that one, I believe 50-something posts had already been deleted. I was a little sad that I missed all

    Also would like to add that I appreciate your transparency OP. I think your honesty probably sets your students at

  24. Anyone Who Says They Don't is Lying: Medication Error

    Purple_roses replied to BonnieSc's topic in Patient Medications

    I think it's important. What if you don't document a medication and someone else looks at the patient's chart and gives the med, thinking you never did? As a student, I'm a fan of the 6 rights. I am...

  25. Ok Class of 2017, Where are you??

    Purple_roses replied to Wifeoffireman's topic in School, College Programs

    augurey, there are 40 in my cohort. As far as supplies, one of my instructors gave us a pretty good idea during orientation. She stressed the fact that all the information we learn will continue to...
