  1. To all of you that think that you can't do this because there are too many miles behind you, you can! Graduation is 3 weeks and 2 days away for me (but who's counting?) and I did it. It has been, with out a doubt, the hardest thing I've ever taken on...
  2. Moving to Alabama

  3. should I just bypass HR completely?

    I've had my own problem with HR. I ended up taking my resume to the DON and was hired on the spot. So I'd say it was worth a try. Good luck to you.
  4. CHF and HTN

    The Lasix will get rid of the fluid and thus lower the pressure.
  5. I live in Alabama when I am not in school in Florida. Graduation is in May and it would be convenient to take the NCLEX here in Florida. Does it matter that I will be practicing in Alabama? Are the two in any way connected?
  6. Decubitus ulcer prevention

    Clueless nursing student here. :uhoh21: Our group in class is to do a presentation on the prevention of pressure ulcers. I know patients should be turned/repositioned but that's where my knowledge ends. Anything creative that I may be able to share? ...
  7. Nursing student here. In our last clinical rotation (psych), the instructors had us write a journal each week and include an entry on how we "took care of ourselves" each week. I was curious what you do for yourselves "in the real world" to keep your...
  8. I just got a Palm Tungsten TX . Circuit City has this $75 rebate on it thru 1-27 so it will end up costing $225. I love the WI-FI.
  9. I'm looking for input on a topic for a class project with an emphasis on avocacy. Suggestions?
  10. Really really screwed up....

    I think that was a typo. I think she meant "Chart" not "Chat"
  11. I'm just looking for some input on a topic for a presentation we are giving at school with emphasis on advocacy. Any suggestions?
  12. Most Important issue facing today's aging

    Thanks Kelly. I'll do that.
  13. Dilute Urine in Drug Test

    I have been accepted into a Nursing program and have taken two drug tests. Both have come back "outside the parameters". Too dilute to read. I don't understand why this is happening. But yesterday they told me I didn't even have to stay for orientati...
  14. Dilute Urine in Drug Test

    Yeah. They told me to lay off the caffeine and just drink water. I work in a hot kitchen so I drink alot of fluid. Mainly tea and water.
  15. Dilute Urine

    I have been accepted into a Nursing program and have taken two drug tests. Both have come back "outside the parameters". Too dilute to read. I don't understand why this is happening. But yesterday they told me I didn't even have to stay for orientati...
  16. Personality Test for Specialty

    (1) Pediatrics? This is the clinical I dread the most (I start school in the Fall). But Oncology (2 & 3) I think would be fascinating.
  17. If You Got Your Letter Post Here!!!

    DATE RECIEVED: May 26 PROGRAM: BSN SCHOOL: University of West Florida STATE: Florida WHEN: Fall semester
  18. I'm 42 and I'm new here !!

    You will find that the youngins will seek you out because of your commitment. I actually had a 20something groan at me at registration..."Ohhh, you old people...you be comin' to class "all focused", makin' A's, throwin' the curve off...". That still ...
  19. Miami Dade College

    Not Miami-Dade. Univ. West Florida. The anticipation is utter hell isn't it?
  20. so I'm bad at Math....

    You are not alone. The tutor lab at my school is for all subjects, but everyone in there has come for math help. That (tutoring) was the ticket for me by the way. I couldn't have done without the one-on-one instruction. Good Luck to you.
  21. Breast Implants

    Thank You, Thank You, Thank You for this thread. I haven't even read on... My daughter wants this for her high school graduation present:uhoh3: and I'm anxious to hear what all have to say.
  22. bless you for this...i start micro this week. i feel like i'll be looking to these sites for help. i'm taking chemistry as well. i'm not sure if that is good or bad. anyway, thanks again.
  23. Is this an exaggeration?

    Okay. I feel better now. Thank You. I'm only in a community college right now and I'm pulling in the A's because I make school a priority. But hey, I'm 43, I'm focused, my kids are big, my husband's understanding...I've got alot of things going for m...
  24. Is this an exaggeration?

    Boy are we living paralel lives! I ran into a girl I was in Anatomy 2 class with...she'd gone on to RN school. She said she was only doing 8 credit hours and it was kicking her ass. That after 1 semester the class had gone from 52 students to 8. My p...
  25. You will be SOOO surprised. It was 8 years between A&P I and A&P II for me and I got incredible "flashbacks". :rotfl:
