We had another meeting this afternoon about it... Other people can volunteer to take the 'on call' for you. We will also be able to schedule what day we want to be on call, but if no one is signed up for that day anyone can be called.

Hello again! I take my test Friday, and I'm soo scared. I read my Kaplan book and feel, "I was never taught this." I take all of the quizes and tests and feel so lost and confused on a majority of the questions. Today will probably be my last day o...

I'm taking the NCLEX on June 13th (yes, friday the 13th). I feel very overwhelmed, I really do not feel like I learned anything in nursing school except how to take vital signs, literally. I took a sample 250 question test today and missed 83 questi...

I'm doing some research for a class of mine regarding DNR and had a question... How many of you have done CPR on a patient that you knew had a written DNR? How many of you have done CPR on a patent that had a written DNR that you where unaware of at ...
