    introduction

    :welcome: to allnurses! The college network only supplies study materials - which cost almost as much as the education itself. Almost made this mistake myself. Just my

    They threw me to the wolves!!

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

    Great job, use your gut and feel out the situation. Do NOT allow anyone to talk you out of required orientation. It is not right. It is hard to leave a job, especially this time of year. But the thing...

    JentheRN05 replied to PennyNickelDime_RN's topic in General Nursing

    What was the MOST BIZARRE thing a pt has been brought to ER for (and lived to tell)?

    JentheRN05 replied to cari rn's topic in Emergency

    Don't know this story personally, second hand. But in nursing school we had to do a skit on one thing or another and our group chose HIPPA. Anyway - the story was supposed to be a true one that one...

    Resigning

    JentheRN05 replied to RN IN KY's topic in General Nursing

    I think that you should at least offer notice. I was on probation at my first job. The last day I called in and said, I don't think this is working out for me. I will give you two weeks if you want...

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

    :welcome: to allnurses. It really depends on the doc. Let them decide their own fate. Say something like. I haven't been here long, and I don't know your preferences. Would you like me to go with you...

    Shorthand, Speedwriting, Speedreading-Help!

    JentheRN05 replied to Healer_at_Heart18's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I had an instructor that got down right PO'd when I pulled out a tape recorder. Which really sucked. It was the hardest class in nursing school, and they all knew it. I was trying to better my...

    Do I still need to buy text books after purchasing College Network Study Guide?

    why so mean?

    JentheRN05 replied to johnsonprn2's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I actually will use your post to I guess 'pay it forward'. It is too often we take them (helpers of any kind) for granted. I don't have any CNAs or aides of any type but i do have staff that I can...

    Blood!

    JentheRN05 replied to marjoriemac's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    I can pretty much start an IV or draw blood blindfolded. Once you know the veins feel, you wouldn't mistaken it for anything else (almost). But I truly can do a stick blindfolded lol. I really miss...

    What do I need to bring to clinicals?

    JentheRN05 replied to leeniebeanie_2767's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    It would be good to have some sort of clinical reference program on a PDA, instead of lugging the books around. Otherwise I'd suggest the books. Just to be amply prepared. You want to impress your...

    When do you sign RN?

    JentheRN05 replied to NCVegRN's topic in General Nursing

    I sign my checks rn all the time. My name at the top says RN so I figure it's part of the signature, and when I 'accidentially' do sign it, it is fine :)

    JentheRN05 replied to allthingsbright's topic in General Nursing
