    JentheRN05 replied to nurscee's topic in First Year After Licensure

    NRP Question

    JentheRN05 replied to studentnurserachel's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Just a note here, I took ACLS while I was in school (at the prodding of a friend who was going into ER after graduation). It isn't as easy to apply when your not in the 'field' just so you

    Does any A&P Stick?

    JentheRN05 replied to kea6783's topic in General Nursing

    The fact is you will need A&P, mostly the P. A is fairly easy, the P is what makes everything work. If you don't know the P then it will get more difficult as you go

    What to do about 2 "possible" jobs

    JentheRN05 replied to JentheRN05's topic in First Year After Licensure

    The only problem with that is. Well - I live in a rural area. There isn't many places less than 45 min away. So there's not alot of opportunities for positions that I "want". What if I wait it out for...

    MIL getting procedure - info?

    JentheRN05 replied to Mommy TeleRN's topic in Cardiac

    Stent - Cardiac Cath - Flat on back for 6 hours I think. Of course it will be nice if they have a stryker bed. Recovery is a matter of days. Maybe 2 - 3. Heavy lifting out for a couple days. It is...

    MIL getting procedure - info?

    JentheRN05 replied to Mommy TeleRN's topic in Cardiac

    Likely in a cardiac care unit. Slight risk of MI while this procedure is being done. Only because they are inserting a catheter up her femoral artery (in most cases) and guiding it into her heart to...

    JentheRN05 replied to peechy79's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    JentheRN05 replied to wannabenursetx's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    What the heck was I thinking????

    JentheRN05 replied to SDNurseWannabe's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    14 credit hours is cake really. It's when you get up to 22 or 23 credit hours that I would be freakin out. That's what I was taking (22 - 23) most of my education. I made it fine :) Graduated with...
