  1. Power points in nursing school? And number?

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Students

    LOL Haven't taken the HESI yet, in January I will, but if I get accepted, I'll immediately buy a printer for my house. My schools, the one I'm doing pre-reqs at and the other Im going to for the...

  2. Power points in nursing school? And number?

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Students

    How big were your power points? Like several pages? Like 100 per chapter? Usually I print in color double sided to save paper and to use any space not

  3. Power points in nursing school? And number?

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Students

    I like that idea of being environmentally friendly. Although, I cant study off a laptop because I can't hold it like a piece of paper, so I might just go with an

  4. Typical cellular data use in NS

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Students

    I already know to wait for the program's determining factor of whether I get in or not so I know I'm not going to blow it all away the first second I see positivity from my test scores. The stuff I...

  5. Typical cellular data use in NS

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Students

    I have to say no, I'd like to say no, but things could change. Who knows. I'm so used to a goofy family, especially since they weren't really supportive of providing me a place to stay while I...

  6. Nurses who are on anxiety/depression meds?

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Hooven20's topic in Nurse Disabilities

    I wrote a post on here about hobbies and what people like to do instead of letting their work twist their

  7. Typical cellular data use in NS

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Students

    Yeah, I don't intend on using convenient social media pleasures while in nursing school except for googling stuff like EKG signs, acid/base electrolytes, etc. Once I'm in, family is blocked out,...

  8. Typical cellular data use in NS

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Students

    Yeah, our facility had company owned Ipod Touch they used. I personally own an Ipod Touch and you can't play games on it because it just crashes. But yeah, the facility had their

  9. Typical cellular data use in NS

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Students

    Regarding your last paragraph. It would be nice if technology could remotely wipe JUST THE INFORMATION OF THE PATIENT, or THE APP, not the whole device itself. I mean I can understand where they're...

  10. Typical cellular data use in NS

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Students

    Ok, cause when I did clinical at a facility for my CNA license, they used Ipod Touch's for charting. What if we have Iphone? Can that be used for that stuff you mentioned? Or is it something that had...

  11. Abandonment Question

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Tmows25's topic in General Nursing

    Damn, that sucks. Well, if they're abandoning then that's what they're

  12. Expensive stethoscope for student?

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to hellofish's topic in General Students

    I agree! If you get the permanent name tag thing that goes around the stethoscope body or bell engraving, you can be sure it'll never get stolen or lost. Always get a stethoscope with your name on it...

  13. Is being a CNA a really hard job?

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Veronicax's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I also think being a CNA makes you a better quality RN once, and if, you become one. CNAs are a sonar to an RN who is the submarine...if that makes sense. Some RNs don't give a rats ass about their...

  14. Expensive stethoscope for student?

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to hellofish's topic in General Students

    God damn! I was thinking of buying the master but then I thought...meeehhhhhhh I don't want to look like a show off so I wanted the Caridology IV which blends in with the rest of the stethoscopes most...

  15. Medical Terminology is too overwhelming?

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to OsceanSN2018's topic in General Students

    I'm not in nursing school yet but I've taken a course just like the one you took. My med term class was also 1 credit. HIT-117B. I believe there's an old saying in college: "The lower the class...

  16. BSN program: Accelerated vs. Full-time

    Beldar_the_Cenobite posted a topic in General Students

    Hello all, I'm stuck between two schools. One is strictly accelerated and the other has part-time, full-time, and accelerated. I thought accelerated was full time but I guess maybe there's a...

  17. BSN program: Accelerated vs. Full-time

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Students

    In the words of Beldar Conehead "This pleases me". I don't have any interest in having time for friends or family. I don't even want my family to see me graduate. That's how badly I want to be an...

  18. Is being a CNA a really hard job?

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Veronicax's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    If you're injured on any job, you're required to take a drug test and compensation (comp is lower than your wage usually). That's why there is equipment. If it was me in a situation where the...

  19. Is being a CNA a really hard job?

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Veronicax's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    If a patient is overweight beyond your ability to move them and they can't move themselves, you ask for someone. If they tell you to move the patient anyway and that "help" just walks off, quit the...

  20. Is being a CNA a really hard job?

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Veronicax's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Compared to nursing(RN/LPN) NO it is not. TRUST ME. I've taken classes that aren't required for CNA that nurses have to take as well as doctors eventually and let me say your workload compared to...

  21. BSN program: Accelerated vs. Full-time

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Students

    I'm not worried about a summer vacation, but I also don't want to rush my education and the class workload I have is more than the free time I have to study and I'm so stressed I'm not learning...

  22. BSN program: Accelerated vs. Full-time

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Students

    So should I go to UNLV or would it not matter, accelerated is accelerated? NSC states their part time program is for those who have family obligations and cannot do their regular track, so I guess the...

  23. Failed 2nd take NCLEX-RN exam. Can't move on! HELP!!!

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Nursewifeymomma's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    A lot of my friends warned me about Kaplan NCLEX review. That explains Kaplain college here in Vegas closing down a few years ago, if there is a

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm more worried about asking her for help on material I don't understand. I did once back when the class first started and she kind of had this "just read the material or google what you don't...
