  1. Help Me Please!

    direw0lf replied to J3w3lz88's topic in General Students

    Yes! And I know I sound like my mom when I say this but if you try to think different it will be easier. Like here's an example, I've been dieting and exercising and yesterday got on the scale and...

  2. What direction should I go? I'm really torn and need real guidance/advice...Lpn or RN?

    direw0lf replied to Beautiful_Soul's topic in General Students

    I tried hard to remain sensitive in my reply to this that lpns and cnas or other so called support staff members sometimes feel that rns act superior because I'm sure many do. In the class I just had...

  3. Children's Hospital of Philadelphia College Volunteer Program

    direw0lf replied to valzav's topic in General Students

    No but I want to so bad! You totally inspired me to find something like this closer to my location! I just wanted you to know that. Good luck with

  4. Should I just go with this expensive college?

    direw0lf replied to KAThftf's topic in General Students

    oh if I may just add something, see my school calls it "fast track" too. It's not accelerated like I learned here for people with previous bachelor's degrees. Her school probably does the same thing,...

  5. Sophomore Nursing Student - Delayed Graduation

    direw0lf replied to linjm109's topic in General Students

    I say volunteer! But only after you've begun your classes and are doing well. On all the scholarship applications I've read, they ask about volunteer experience. You might even make some connections...

  6. What direction should I go? I'm really torn and need real guidance/advice...Lpn or RN?

    direw0lf replied to Beautiful_Soul's topic in General Students

    The most important differences, as I understood them to be, are that RN's have the accountability, do the full assessments, careplans, more delegation responsibilities, and more critical thinking,...

  7. Should I just go with this expensive college?

    direw0lf replied to KAThftf's topic in General Students

    Nope not at all how you sound! I was confused about that myself and glad you answered and corrected me. I get a Pell grant. I think the OP should find out if she could too

  8. Should I just go with this expensive college?

    direw0lf replied to KAThftf's topic in General Students

    Well I don't know. CSS doesn't sound familiar. I don't know if Pell grant and fafsa are the same thing? I just know I messed up independent and dependent. And that 2 of my friends have said their...

  9. If you we're a new nursing student? What would you do?

    direw0lf replied to JohnLouisTomines's topic in General Students

    I liked going through an nclex book and getting used to it. And for our intro class we used the book "Nursing in Today's World" by Ellis and Hartley and I thought it was excellent to prepare me and...

  10. Practice NCLEX question

    direw0lf replied to guest769224's topic in General Students

    I'm finding out the nclex pov is different from all of the above! Thank you..Game of Thrones fan awaiting the new book and wondering if it'll be out before I graduate

  11. Should I just go with this expensive college?

    direw0lf replied to KAThftf's topic in General Students

    Are you positive? I remember having to answer whether I'm a dependent or not and having to fill out info for who I live with. And my friend, who gets the free ride for her college, said she gets so...

  12. Job advice- Patient transporter

    direw0lf replied to LJR89's topic in General Students

    Patient transport is a hard job. You're on the clock and usually have to get a pt up on your own. My friend worked as one. I'd take it. It is a lot of pt interaction. But you already have good...

  13. I start nursing school in 9 days! Any Advice?

    direw0lf replied to Hondagirl95's topic in General Students

    I start in 17 days! I have been so happy but got nervous last night for a little bit when I realized how soon I'll be starting. Do some fun things in your 9 days and watch some inspirational

  14. Should I just go with this expensive college?

    direw0lf replied to KAThftf's topic in General Students

    Just a note, most of these "good private catholic" universities also offer a lot in terms of scholarships and financial aid. I know because my friend chose one because it was her only school with a...

  15. Practice NCLEX question

    direw0lf replied to guest769224's topic in General Students

    Thanks I love these questions. This was tricky though because my lifespan development class specifically mentioned gross motor skills and blocks for toddlers. Guess you'd have to look at it from a...

  16. Help Me Please!

    direw0lf replied to J3w3lz88's topic in General Students

    I don't know if this is your case. But one of my teachers made a big point about how cell phones are decreasing future generations attention spans. I think you have to train yourself to hold an...

  17. Practice NCLEX question

    direw0lf replied to guest769224's topic in General Students

    Had this in lifespan development! A because 2 = toddler = motor skills = building

  18. Chemistry

    direw0lf replied to dnelson120's topic in General Students

    If you search facebook for a group called "homework helpers" it may seem mostly high school but there are a few chem gods on there who helped me through my chem. I don't know why but I could...

  19. Calling all non-traditional nursing students!!!

    direw0lf replied to ShontaFutureBSN's topic in General Students

    Hello I need to ask something for the nontrads or anyone to answer. Well first as a transfer I was told I'm nontraditional anyway but I'm not for my age. But anyway I'm curious because this is one of...

  20. "My Tech" or "My Aide"

    direw0lf replied to dreamer30's topic in Patient Care Technician, Assistants

    So you make these threads on your shift? I'd figure that's not allowed. This actually bothered me but I'm just a student. When I become a nurse I'll be sure to ask how techs working with me prefer to...

  21. Do honors help gain a job

    direw0lf replied to direw0lf's topic in General Students

    I know some people view it as bragging whereas I view it as trying very very very hard. If I compare myself to someone who didn't get as high grade as me, it's because of things like they spent time...

  22. An NCLEX question for you.

    direw0lf replied to Lev's topic in General Students

    This probably didn't seem too interesting a question so I'll just give the answer now :) The answer is 2! I think it's from the Saunders comprehensive but I'm not sure I only saved the picture of the...

  23. An NCLEX question for you.

    direw0lf replied to Lev's topic in General Students

    I have one! I'm taking this from memory, the question stood out to me. A stable patient on the medical unit in a hospital unexpectedly dies. The nurse needs to inform the significant other on the...

  24. An NCLEX question for you.

    direw0lf replied to Lev's topic in General Students

    Love this idea! I thought 3 because of the word crisis. But the HR in no1 is not normal and he had a history of infection so maybe he has one

  25. I want to be proactive while earning my ADN....

    direw0lf replied to nhunt's topic in General Students

    I'm in NJ and haven't heard of that much difficulty except for NP level. But this depends on the school. Schools affiliated with hospital chains have graduates more likely to be hired. There's a large...
