Hey- you are smart, keep your head up. We use kaplan at my school, and our NCLEX pass rates in my program are 100% first time. Hope this helps. :) Sent from my iPhone using allnurses.

Hello there. You mentioned: "She usually does take the pill, if she does not, I will follow up and be back to make sure she does" 1. An older adult patient w/ dementia has an order for a drug, you are very busy and have 50 more drugs to pass. The pat...

Yes true. Its on a 7 point grade scale. Most all nursing schools are like that. Don't worry too much about that 'moving on thing.' They just are highly reputable and I think they want the students on their toes. Acclrtdbsnstudent :) Sent from my iP...

I actually enjoyed reading your response. I 100% agree, that all the 'crap' and rules and administration behind healthcare cannot measure or distinguish a nurse. What I CAN tell you is that you don't respect my response because I'm not even graduated...

Carilion Clinic in Roanoke VA is looking for RN's. Level 1 trauma center. New RN pay is embarrassing but a nurse union is needed!!! With the cheap cost of living etc. its not a bad gig spite their disrespectful pay. (31% lower than the national avg.)...

I think this brings up a good point about respecting patients perceptions. Patients don't know who she is who he is that just walked it. We need to 1. Attempt to wear uniforms that distinguish us.. (So if the pt says oh yes one of my nurses in the ro...

Im from Seattle. Worked at Virginia Mason. In VIrginia now. Ok so there isn't a "hood" lol. You absolutely can find a room for that price . Craigslist is the way to go for sure. Seattle is costly, the city is nice. Trust me you can find a nice place ...

I would keep going and don't stop because of your 'local job market.' Nursing are and will be in demand. If you can sit for the NCLEX once you get done with school do it. You can relocate if needed, and if you must get your BSN (which yes CMS is proj...

Its easy! Its the dosage calculation exam. It is basic math and about 30 questions. If you fail the first time, you may take it again. You must score at least an 87% to move on. If you fail the second time you may not continue and they may put you in...

Foundations sucks especially if you have a crappy professor. I had a wonderful professor. We are on that 80%=c and is the min to pass system . You can't possibly read everything so Id advise you to practice skimming.... Understand main points and see...

Don't be walked on. Stay persistent. Expand locations if needed.

Congratulations! Are you going there now? I am in the program and my experience has been wonderful. It is the hardest thing I've done in my life, but failure is not an option so I'm really loving it. The professors are extremely knowledgeable, suppor...

So awesome! You should be a BSN,RN by now. I hope you are doing so and enjoying it! I'm done with this same program May 2016! I love it. VERY Hard but it's worth it.
