    Anjann replied to shining_star28463's topic in General Nursing

  6. I need help with this kaplan question???

    Anjann replied to kemerick's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    My guess would have been #3 because it is the only patient who does not have an open wound/infection/exposure to the air and Sickle Cell patients are very immunocompromised. Also, when you get these...

    Anjann replied to *Andrea*'s topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Anjann replied to TiffanyA's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

  20. I had to take care of druggies today, and was disgusted!

    Anjann replied to RN 4 U's topic in Virginia Nursing

    I think as a new nurse, like me, that your reaction is common. Learning how to deal with a specific patient population takes time. I even had a post-surg pt. 2 years ago whom we had to keep a stock of...
