1. I think I'm done with hospital nursing... what to do in this situation??

   RNinJune2007 replied to RNinJune2007's topic in General Nursing

   Thanks for all these new replies. As far as working in the same company as my mother, this could be a concern- fortunately, this is a LARGE company (small corporation) with over 200 physicians, and several thousand employees. It's not just a small do...

2. What was the toughest situation you encountered at the Hospital as a Nurse?

   RNinJune2007 replied to RNsoon!'s topic in General Nursing

   The toughest situation I experienced as an RN in the hospital was when I worked nights. I had 5 patients, and never stopped running between those. I had a patient who was getting a very dangerous medication for migranes IV (and she had to be monitore...

   Thanks for the responses so far. In response to healthyRN, he doesn't expect me to prepare his lunch... sorry I didn't say it clearly. He wants me to email his wife so she can prepare for their lunches together. Either way, though... kinda sounds we...

   RNinJune2007 posted a topic in General Nursing

   I have been a pediatric RN on a hospital floor for 9 months. I love what I do. Unfortunately, I don't love the corporation I work for, or the 14 hour days without lunch that I end up working. Even though there are usually only 3 workdays to my week, ...

5. NCLEX- all the questions !!! OMG

   RNinJune2007 replied to Jtejas's topic in General Students

   Okay take a step back now. It's not THAT bad. Everyone has a different experience, some worse than others. Each is unique. I (along with three other of my 20 classmates) actually thought it was easier than my nursing school exams, and was done in abo...

8. 6/18-done!

   RNinJune2007 replied to jodyangel's topic in NCLEX

   I have heard you can fail/pass at any number, including 75. Yes, people have failed at 75! My NCLEX instructor told us if you fail in the early numbers, it's because there is no way, even with the other questions, that you can pass. The computer know...

   I'm done! I got to the testing center around 730, and sat in my car until 15 till 8. I took one last look at lab values, and went in. A few other people were waiting, and we waited until about 815 until the center opened. I got checked in, and began...

14. Sooo nervous

    RNinJune2007 replied to jillnurse2b's topic in NCLEX

    I take the test Monday. I have done 500 questions the last two days, and total have done 2700 since my review course (she only recommended 2000 since I guessed that I had done about 1000 during school). I feel SO ill-prepared, especially considering...

15. What is the most challenging thing about attending nursing school?

    RNinJune2007 replied to reidesert's topic in General Students

    The toughest thing for me about nursing school was the workload. In one week, I could have two full days on clinical (and, because of that one night staying up with my patient assignment learning and getting all the required paperwork done before the...
