1. Underage drinking question? please help

   gipsydangerous replied to xjay22's topic in General Students

   Everyone does stupid things at any age. Being a nurse, and at the very least a nursing student, one should know a little about safety, prioritizing responsibilities and NOT to jeopardy their future by "drinking" something someone thrusts at you. She'...

2. I don't want to be a nurse!!

   gipsydangerous replied to sharebear003's topic in General Students

   This. And all the other postings about being 18 and being an adult and all. It seems like your parents are looking out for you in the only way they may know how to. Giving your side and information about what you really want may open up some serious ...

3. Underage drinking question? please help

   gipsydangerous replied to xjay22's topic in General Students

   I just can't get over the whole "she gave me a drink/ it tasted strong/ I drank it anyway" part of the original posting. That doesn't inspire future nurse confidence. What a judgement call -- especially the whole possibility of a date rape drug, etc....

4. Passed NCLEX-RN 2015 (Ran-out-of-time)

5. UWORLD 2016 free trial code

   gipsydangerous replied to devhrt12's topic in NCLEX

   I wish I would have known about this sooner! I tried some of the demo questions and loved the rationales.

6. How I passed NCLEX-RN with 78 Questions!

   gipsydangerous replied to aakanee's topic in NCLEX

   Oh man, can you send me a forward of those notes? Pretty please and thank you. [email protected] I am waiting for my ATT and am trying to brush up on EVERYTHING I can get my hands on. Just did some practice UWorld material and I liked the rat...

7. nclex-rn notes

   gipsydangerous replied to jacobs's topic in NCLEX

   Waiting on ATT currently; doing practice questions from LaCharity, Saunders and anywhere else I can get my hands on.

8. Do you stalk anyone here?

   gipsydangerous replied to klone's topic in General Nursing

   I stalked many on this site for YEARS before finally signing up for an account there's just so many brilliant and comforting people on here, especially when going through school! And the snark is icing on the cake.

9. Advice wanted, as an older RN student, what thing should I NOT do?

   gipsydangerous replied to hamsterwheel's topic in LPN-RN

   Just be yourself -- quietly! , but seriously, just be yourself and observe as much as you can. It's not easy in nursing school, with know-it-alls, gung-ho newbies or know-nothings who ***** and complain, in addition to the normal drama of being aroun...

10. Never wanna take students again.

    gipsydangerous replied to remotefuse's topic in Relations

    Oh man, this is why I was always quiet, observing and trying to be as helpful as possible during my time as a student on different floors. I never wanted the nurse to feel like I was in the way. I really dislike know-it-alls - nursing is a field wher...

11. Should I buy a nice stethoscope?

    gipsydangerous replied to arojumper's topic in General Students

    You MAY wanna keep around a cheap one for clinicals. Someone in one of our semesters would lose theirs or it get stolen on the floor. I even had people straight up tell me they'd kill for the gold stethoscope my mom passed down to me. Definitely hid ...

12. Hardest part of nursing school?

    gipsydangerous replied to Nurseades2b's topic in General Students

    OMG yes, other students and the BS involved with excessive charges. The hardest part for me was group projects! So glad those are behind me for now!

13. I failed my nclex I think

    gipsydangerous replied to Erz21's topic in NCLEX

    You guys really need to stop with the PVT and just wait for the official results. OMG.

14. Male CNA caring for females

    gipsydangerous replied to Firas5's topic in CNA/MA

    As others have stated: you cannot refuse care of anyone; the patient has that right. Furthermore, most patients I've encountered don't care either way so long as they get the care they need. No offense but nursing home/LTC might not be something you ...

15. Should I quit?

    gipsydangerous replied to Ldya1492's topic in Career Support

    Not all LTC and nursing facilities are like this. Just FYI. Good luck job searching!
