  1. 2nd day of school!

    mirandaaa replied to 2015Kayla's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Woah, relax a little lol. You're not doing yourself any favors by being this freaked

  2. 9 days after an interview and no offer...

    mirandaaa replied to purplegal's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    The hiring process for places often takes a while. (For example, I applied to about 20 open positions back in May and just interviewed for one of them last Monday. They also still have not called me)....

  3. 4 Weeks Of Freedom

    mirandaaa posted a topic in General Students

    (Another excited student post; carry-on veterans!) I can't believe summer is almost over... Only 4 weeks of summer left and then it's back to the grind! Who else is starting the RN program on August...

  4. Made a mistake. Cna

    mirandaaa replied to Lalalove1's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I can't even tell you how many times this has happened between me and my coworkers lol. It really is not a big deal. Just a minor oops. A little gross, but the resident wasn't in danger and nothing...

  5. Are you Facebook friends with your coworkers?

    mirandaaa replied to BlueDawnRN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I think it depends on the coworker. I know that I generally don't post anything online that I would be uncomfortable with my employer knowing about so having coworkers on there doesn't really seem to...

  6. Applied to multiple jobs at one hospital. 1 interview. Other positions still pending.

    mirandaaa replied to MidazolamMami's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    You can schedule interviews for as many different positions as you like. As for having to go multiple times, unless you can coordinate all of your interviews to be done on the same day, you will...

  7. Should I apply?

    mirandaaa replied to Brookerogers's topic in General Students

    Agreed. Most states require you to finish fundamentals (usually in your first semester) and pass and then you can sit for the CNA test. I don't think they'll consider you if you don't have a CNA...

  8. Clubbing is the New Black

    mirandaaa replied to adventure_rn's topic in Nursing Humor

    OH MY GOSH, I just read the buzzfeed article on these nails yesterday! What the

  9. Drug Testing

    mirandaaa replied to level1's topic in General Students

    Mine is annually. But truthfully, why even risk it? Is smoking weed really more important than your entire future career? Doesn't matter if you go to Colorado where it's legal or not. In your...

  10. "Don't Work" Isn't An Answer

    mirandaaa posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Prepare for a minor rant... I've been a member on AN since Feb. and was an avid reader for months prior to creating an account. I've noticed on tons of threads asking for advice on working during...

  11. Day shift or night shift

    mirandaaa replied to TNT_RN09's topic in General Nursing

    I love nights. I'm actually greatly considering returning. I will say I prefer 12 hour nights vs. 8s just because you have less nights you're required to be up/working. Pros of days: "normal"...

  12. New CNA problems?

    mirandaaa replied to Bellaxx392's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Welcome to LTC. But really, once you get into your routine and get more comfortable with your residents and duties, you'll do just fine

  13. Suggestions for Cover Letter/Resume?

    mirandaaa replied to Anathe's topic in Patient Care Technician, Assistants

    There are some really great resume templates online you can find. You just download them (there are a TON of free ones) and change the information on the template. I've done this and it works...

  14. Parental influence on college education

    mirandaaa replied to Katieaok's topic in General Students

    This is a great post. My mom and I clashed big time from middle school up until about a year or two after I moved out at 17. I have a huge issue with being told what to do and find myself doing the...

  15. Questioning this order???

    mirandaaa replied to garnetgirl29's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    :wideyed::***:

  16. Ways to pay for school

    mirandaaa replied to honeyforasalteyfish's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Firstly, and I can't stress this enough, DO NOT use the pre-approved credit cards from the mail. If you read the fine-print, they usually come with INSANE interest rates, rules, and fees, not to...

  17. should I become a nurse? advice please

    mirandaaa replied to lightshesaid's topic in General Nursing

    I feel that nursing is one of those things where you have to KNOW you want to do it. Nursing isn't something you just think you might want to do; it requires dedication and confidence to learn what...

  18. Nursing Conference

    mirandaaa replied to KayFuryPsychRN's topic in General Nursing

    Maybe bring some things to take notes! Think of any questions you may have that you can ask about or any concerns you would like to share. Sounds like a great opportunity. Good for you! Hope you...

  19. Classes to take while waiting

    mirandaaa replied to bridgegeisler's topic in General Students

    Take any non-nursing co-req that you

  20. Tattoos!

    mirandaaa replied to mmbucklerky's topic in General Students

    I have a sleeve and tons on my legs as well as my knuckles. I have to have them covered for school, but I have TONS of friends that have even more than I do and they do just fine with them at

  21. What's next?

    mirandaaa replied to Trades11234's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Also, I don't suggest spending/wasting the money on taking the TEAS unless you know the school you're applying to requires it. Some schools use the HESI, some use the TEAS, and some use other

  22. Free time ... tell me again, just what is that?

    mirandaaa replied to Joe V's topic in General Students

    Personally I'm enjoying the decreased amount of responsibility. 4 weeks left of

  23. Free cna training

    mirandaaa replied to ycalhoun's topic in Alabama Nursing

    Check to see if your state will allow you to sit for the CNA exam in nursing school. A lot of states allow students to take the CNA course after completing the first semester or certain nursing...

  24. 4 Weeks Of Freedom

    mirandaaa replied to mirandaaa's topic in General Students

    Congrats on going back for your BSN! I'm going to get mine as soon as I complete the ASN program. I have a BUNCH of courses my first semester... 1. Fundamentals of Nursing M & W 12:00-2:45 (for...

  25. 4 Weeks Of Freedom

    mirandaaa replied to mirandaaa's topic in General Students

    I'm having to work full time during school as well. Wish I had another alternative but I do not. As for the books, I definitely am buying mine online elsewhere. I did the math and I am saving around...
