  1. The flu vaccine & GBS

    Spangle Brown replied to emtb2rn's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Same here. And I think it needs to be noted that Government did not come by this reputation by accident. We would be stupid to show blind

  2. Valencia College Spring 2015

    Spangle Brown replied to boragirl02's topic in Florida Nursing

    OH, your right. It is less then 3 weeks from Oct 20, until Nov 7th. They sure have to have their ducks in a row to fill those seats quickly. Breath Spangle, Breath! LOL! Now I feel behind. I...

  4. Valencia College Spring 2015

    Spangle Brown replied to boragirl02's topic in Florida Nursing

    Welll, someone say you don't want to go. So I can move up from Summer 15. I guess that means I will know before then if I get to move up. That is just 6 weeks away! Wow, time is starting to move...

  5. If someone is caught plagiarizing, should they be failed on the spot or get a zero

    Spangle Brown replied to Little_Bear2013's topic in General Students

    This drives me nuts. I find it unfair that people get away with it. So I know in my heart, it's about the fact that they can do it, and I can't. But nursing school, it's different. What we are...

  6. When a Mom Miscarries

    Spangle Brown replied to CountryMomma's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I read it and I agreed with her. It's a catch 22. For some, added stress and worring can cause more damage. Which is why ALL are padded on the head and lied to. No one knows who those are....

  7. LTC Nursing gets a bad rap!

    Spangle Brown replied to Gchr's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    I think a brochure or flyer should be made up to deal with some of those issues in a tactful and informative way. The since you could not pass them out at your facility, Match up with another LTC...

  8. Learning not memorizing

    Spangle Brown replied to Sydneyad2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Foundations are hard to remember, until you use them often and in relation to life. When you studied A&P1, you where learning body parts. A&P2 will be different. You can't just memorize,...

  9. Should high absenteeism be cause to be fired?

    Spangle Brown replied to Emergent's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    I use to think so. But when I consider workers that come in and cover shifts when they are able. Stay late to cover and do extra work. Then realize that when the time comes that they might be the one...

  10. 34, Mom and a GED

    Spangle Brown replied to Cassyb's topic in General Students

    Not a problem. However, it's different then in HS. Grades do matter. Need A's and B's. So take it seriously from the start. Like a

  11. Would You Be Willing to do This?

    Spangle Brown replied to westieluv's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    It is one thing to help out while they fix the shortage problem. But it seems like they are NOT fixing it. If that is the case, then time to go. Maybe your job found the mystery Nursing shortage...

  12. 16 hr work days in GA

    Spangle Brown replied to gainschool4lpn's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    THanks. Sounds like being a stay at home parent to a bunch of preschoolers. Ha Ha.. but without the pay or actual time

  13. 16 hr work days in GA

    Spangle Brown replied to gainschool4lpn's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    16 hr shift back to back = 32 hrs straight? No

  14. Signs the patient population is doable ?

    Spangle Brown replied to Nola009's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

  15. Nursing dx - chest tube

    Spangle Brown replied to takingcare19's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Same here. I'm hoping it will help to get my nursing thinking cap screwed on

  16. What is supposed to be the hardest year?

    Spangle Brown replied to lampard's topic in General Students

    Some of us take Microbiology, anatomy and physiology as part of the requirements before starting nursing school. I even took medical terminology. Then take 5 terms in Nursing school. I still would...

  17. Male modesty double standard

    Spangle Brown replied to caregiver111's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Thanks for all the answers. But none of them explained why it was closed for the females. And it was mentioned that not all the cases were criminal investigations. Just cops waiting to talk to the...

  18. missed class

    Spangle Brown replied to smmctowelie69's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    He knows, but it's not his responsibility. Hence, not his worry. His worry is getting to work. And he did complete his goal. Did you understand what I said? It's harsh, but it's reality that we all...

  19. missed class

    Spangle Brown replied to smmctowelie69's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    In all honesty, I would be at least 30 minutes early. It gives time for parking, talking, getting relaxed, etc. Oh,and I gota run to the bathroom. All sorts of things. The best is a little study...

  20. Associates VS Bachelors

    Spangle Brown replied to ThomasBonifacio's topic in General Students

    If your wanting an RN why are you doing CNA? Is it so you can work while in school? Nothing wrong with a CNA, but if your wanting to hurry to get your RN, it's a slow down. I agree with what has all...

  21. unbundling charges

    Spangle Brown replied to Kyrshamarks's topic in General Nursing

    At that rate, it seems RN's could argue that there is enough in the hr rate to add some cna back

  22. Valencia Nursing Program for Summer 2015

    Spangle Brown replied to kayrox2muzic's topic in Florida Nursing

    I finally got my acceptance letter for Summer 2015. Any info on the shots would be appreciated. I would like to get the medical done sooner, rather then

  23. Fake call outs irritate me

    Spangle Brown replied to Emergent's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Doesn't matter. Everyone gets it. It's nothing new. What is the real problem is in finding a workable solution. Nothing is going to change, until a solution is found. Whining about it is not a...

  24. Effective Learning

    Spangle Brown replied to Music in My Heart's topic in General Students

    Physically making flashcards works for learning on many different levels. Searching for the info to put on the card, the writing the information down, then the visual of seeing it. Then later the...

  25. "Your ER sucks!" and other pleasantries...how you handle them?

    Spangle Brown replied to livingthedream77's topic in Emergency

    I believe it's a type of person who has learned 'tricks' to control and get what they want. You see them everywhere. I seen them when I worked food service. I will not tell the long story. But I...
