    No one should flame you. Each person has to use the system that helps them the most, and thank goodness there are a few formulas out there to choose from. I don't think I could have survived nursing...

    I have decided that nursing is not for me

    I am sorry to hear that you were disillusioned with nursing, but as mentioned by the previous poster, I am glad that you discovered your feelings sooner than later. How long have you been a nurse? I...

    PN Instructor wants advice

    Welcome! I think it would be a great idea to teach your students how to research for what information they need on line. I have a few web sites that I use to look up medications, diagnostic tests,...
  9. Well, a twist on what others are saying: I do believe that you would be doing yourself a disservice by not working as soon as you can, for the same above reasons...however, from what this economy is...

    I want OUT!!!!

    It sounds like the new nurse jitters in combination with the old nurses eat their young. You don't have to be social with these people, but I can understand why some may say to exchange little...

    Passed boards- and got laid off immediately :-(

    First, allow me to say Congratulations on passing your boards...I am sure that this termination sort of overshadowed your success because regardless of what, you have to eat today. I do also wonder...

    I am content to be an LPN...is that wrong?

    There are classmates that are looking down on LPNs? Amazing if true, because who is to say that they would even function better in an RN program? Maybe it's me, but nursing seems to be a sorority...

    Heading to sub-acute unit at an LTC...what should I expect?

    While admiring your skills acquired, I did wonder after posting HOW MANY patients you were personally responsible for. Of course, it is great that you gained all of this experience, but I would have...

    Heading to sub-acute unit at an LTC...what should I expect?

    You are gaining phenomenal experience towards your RN! Kudos to you! I wish I can gain those sorts of skills where I am, but the med-surg units in my hospital really don't have all of that. I have...

    Rok'en Sok'em in the ALF

    I think it is horrible that somehow, this family gained access to your personal number...even if it is a cell phone. In the future, if they contact you again, tell them nicely that this is not a...

    Would you become an RN?

    One of the best gifts we have is the ability to assess ourselves and know when it is time to move on. Heck, take the pre-requisites if this is what you want. Sometimes, overcoming the challenges...

    Pelvic Rest Teaching Material

    Thanks, everyone! I googled, also, and as mentioned, it took awhile to find something-but it seemed to be specific to placenta previa. I'll probably write something myself, see if the head nurse...

    Pelvic Rest Teaching Material

    I work in OB/GYN and for the past few days, I have been looking for teaching material to hand my patients that are advised for pelvic rest. I know what it is (of course), but I wanted to give them...

    Am I crazy because I love med surg???

    Kudos to you for liking med-surg! It may be due to working with a great team of collagues as well as your passion for this service...who knows? But, it is great. As mentioned, many do not find it...
