  2. Understaffed with a heavy patient load

    noelly10 replied to ashleesini's topic in Medical-Surgical

    I wish our staffing was like this. Sometimes we have 6 nurses and 2 techs to 32 patients. Sometimes we only have 1 tech. Sometimes no tech at all and we have to *gasp* do total care for 5-6...

  3. Understaffed with a heavy patient load

    noelly10 replied to ashleesini's topic in Medical-Surgical

    Realize that you're only one person. Do all that you can. If you can't get to something, don't let it eat you up. You will have days you don't get to something. All you can do is your

  4. Nurses please give an new ER-Tech some advice

    noelly10 replied to Socal_EMT's topic in Emergency

    Don't get lazy. Our er techs are lazy and send up patients that are all in a mess just for us to clean up on top of getting them settled. Then they're all disgruntled because they had been sitting in...

    noelly10 replied to HeyViv's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

  10. Scrubs or Business Casual for Orientation?

    noelly10 replied to seasidesoul's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I wore both. Depended on how I felt. But if they say you could do either or, why would wearing scrubs be frowned upon? That is your work attire, is it not? Also, why care what others are wearing? As...

  12. Catheters

    noelly10 replied to tori3195's topic in General Students

    Well you are still a patient advocate. There are polite ways to say things and something should have been said. If she didn't want to listen to your advice, go up the chain of

  13. Catheters

    noelly10 replied to tori3195's topic in General Students

    You could have said politely, "what if we tried leaving the catheter in the lady parts, that way we can tell the difference between the lady parts and the urethra because the lady parts will already...

    noelly10 replied to prisilpn's topic in LPN, LVN Students

  18. Nursing School Starting Soon!!

    noelly10 replied to prisilpn's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I disagree on the study everyday thing. I think if you study every single day, you will wear yourself down. If one day you are at that point where you feel anything you study won't stick and you feel...

  19. Every Nurse has that one patient they'll remember forever

    noelly10 replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

    I had a patient who asked for a comb. I went out of my way to hunt him down one because I felt that this was the one thing that would raise his spirits. I came back with a comb in hand and he took my...

    noelly10 replied to odpropofol's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  21. Starting Med Surg in 2 Weeks

    noelly10 replied to mnw9412's topic in General Students

    noelly10 replied to Hondagirl95's topic in General Students

    I was the rare case in that I was more than happy to get away from my "nursing school family". I agree that study groups are beneficial, but I studied better alone and I did just fine on my own. I'm...
