   JonSnowedSRNA replied to JV2000's topic in SRNA

   Yes INDEED! BigPappa has hit the nail on the head. Chill out and drink some beer and breath. Breath... Offer your classmates an enema because they are full of ****. When people aren't confident they feel the need to act like they never struggle....

   JonSnowedSRNA replied to fsnurselaur9's topic in SRNA

   Great advice! I am not yet attending, but everyone I spoke with said go as soon as possible. There was not one person who recommended more ICU experience. As someone previously stated you are not going to school to become a better ICU nurse. Also...

7. Clinical instructor keeps handing out clinical warnings?

   JonSnowedSRNA replied to lilfayfay's topic in General Students

   JonSnowedSRNA replied to lilfayfay's topic in General Students

    There are so many things I would like to say but for the sake of people being easily offended i will say it nicely. Man up. First of all if you come in in a car crash or accident you are getting naked... Completely naked. Not in front of everyone but...
