    Was Pharm a biggie on the nclex-rn?

    scaredsilly replied to northmississippi's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I had a classmate who said almost a third of her test was pharm, I don't remember how many I had, maybe 4 or 5. As another poster said, they only use the generic names. So I think that the...

    5 Drs, a judge and the coroner say she is dead, Gooselady! That means she is a corpse no matter what people believe. Sorry to burst any bubbles, but Jahi is a

    I doubt very seriously that there are any nurses seeing the dead girl. It goes against everything we train for and believe in. Not sure where smartnurse gets her information, but I'd bet my next...

    got my first pair of scrubs

    scaredsilly replied to Chesterton1's topic in General Nursing

    This is hilarious! Try being almost just about 5 foot tall and a size 0! They do NOT make scrubs that fit and to keep them from dragging on the floor you either learn to sew (I haven't) or pull...

    Exactly! Besides, I think its the "individuals" that killed out there! Be glad you are part of a team, embrace it! They will have your back because you are one of them not because you looked good...

    My opinion is that when the scamily releases CHO from HIPAA regs and CHO responds to the lawsuit this will end. Once the public gets to hear the real story, they won't be able to keep this

    Is Nursing the hardest job out there?

    scaredsilly replied to Libby1987's topic in General Nursing

    There are loads of "harder" jobs. Some don't pay at all-being a mom, being a caregiver to an ill or disabled family member. Both of these are harder than nursing. As for what pays the mortgage and...

    scaredsilly replied to cowgirlmedic's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I agree with the others, if you feel unsafe you probably are unsafe. Keep your license and your patients safe and if you can't do that then you are going to need to make a change. I know it's tough...

    NY to Colorado

    scaredsilly replied to Vkearn's topic in Colorado Nursing

    With a BSN and over a year experience you should have no problem at all. Boulder to Aurora is a heck of a commute, if you want to live in Boulder or Broomfield you should look for jobs there or in...

    How long does it take to do the kaplan course for nclex rn?

    scaredsilly replied to northmississippi's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Not so sure there is a recommended time. If you do the classroom portion, that part is 4 days. If you want to do all of the q trainers and q bank the right way (reading the rationales, understand...

    The article said that there are nurses in the home, but they got their information from Dolan and the scamily, therefore it is not necessarily true! I would guess that they got educated on care while...

    IBRF isn't going to step in to pay for anything unless they get paid. They put up a crowd funding site wanting $100K and a few days ago it still only had $100.00 in it. Other families on FB that...
