    Malpractice insurance?

    Extra Pickles replied to Mockingjay's topic in General Nursing

    Which part is incorrect? The part about how the hospital will prioritize how it defends itself over the defense of the individual nurse? Or the part about how if the nurse is individually named he...

    As a Indian Nurse

    Extra Pickles replied to chandragiriseenu's topic in Nurse Registration

    The part you are not understanding is that although you met the requirements for the Texas Board of Nursing so that you could obtain a license to work in Texas, that has nothing at all to do with...

    For those who have taken NCLEX RN

    Extra Pickles replied to Cecegirl1030's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    What you're talking about is the PVT, or Pearson Vue Trick and it's a game in which you roll the dice with $200. If you try to register again and it doesn't take your money you probably passed. If...

    Malpractice insurance?

    Extra Pickles replied to Mockingjay's topic in General Nursing

    You can talk to them but they won't be of much assistance, as they have nothing to do with it. A hospital's legal counsel is concerned with covering the interests of the hospital, not the employee....

    i need some opinionated advice

    Extra Pickles replied to misspy's topic in General Students

    Not where? Surely you don't mean not intelligent? I'm sure everyone here understands the stress and anxiety in the pre-application, pre-nursing program phase of life, but that doesn't make it any...

    Will i get into nursing?

    Extra Pickles replied to rzra98's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    honestly the only person who could answer what your chances are would be a recent applicant at this same program. You asked for advice and my best advice is to contact the admissions and/or nursing...

    Reciting nurse's pledge question

    it isn't the Pledge of Allegiance that's the problem lol it's the Nightingale Pledge for graduation. Being two minutes late for every class just gets you kicked out of

    Applying to Direct Entry from Undergrad

    Extra Pickles replied to nat97's topic in General Students

    Your first concern shouldn't be when to apply but instead whether you have the prerequisite courses done that the nursing programs require for an accelerated BSN student. You may feel that liberal...

    Currently an MA, and terrified I'll hate being a nurse once I graduate nursing school

    Extra Pickles replied to rpaluch's topic in General Students

    Any new nursing student or new grad who feels totally confident in their skills is someone I want to run the other way from, because they are clueless. You already know that you don't know, and need...

    Drug screen discrimination

    Extra Pickles replied to Steven46304's topic in General Students

    If you or she is going to get fired up over this because you think it's illegal somehow I suspect you won't like how nursing school is going to go. Much of the grading and pass/fail situations are...

    i need some opinionated advice

    Extra Pickles replied to misspy's topic in General Students

    Yes it really is that confusing. In fact, if I had turned in a paper during school that read as your post does I have no doubt it would be returned to me, ungraded, with a note "please rewrite, it is...

    For those who have taken NCLEX RN

    Extra Pickles replied to Cecegirl1030's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Straight Talk? Ok. You got the minimum number of questions which means you either did a terrific job and passed easily or you did an awful job and failed easily. Type and format of questions doesn't...

    Extra Pickles replied to Doobyk's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    You're welcome :-) Think of it this way you either did really well because you only got a few more questions than the minimum. Or you did really really sucky awful and failed nearly immediately....

    Propofol question

    Extra Pickles replied to TXGuy's topic in General Nursing

    no matter whether the coworker was old or young (bad joke, ok) how did he get "caught at his house" in the first place? Was this some kind of raid? Sounds like your old/young friend needs a lawyer,...

    Propofol question

    Extra Pickles replied to TXGuy's topic in General Nursing

    No, she's saying that by using the word "caught" the OP is already saying that the guy didn't possess something legally. you can't be "caught" doing something legal, that's the

    77 good or bad?

    Extra Pickles replied to Doobyk's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Number of questions doesn't mean anything. yes people have failed with 77 questions and yes they have passed with 77 questions. All it means is the test shut off before going for 78 questions but...

    Extra Pickles replied to dxt038's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I assume you know if your state allows the Quick Results or not right? If you've paid for Quick Results before and this time your results are not available, does it say the results are on hold? the...

    Extra Pickles replied to dxt038's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Where did you come up with this? License numbers are posted on individual state board of nursing websites and while some do it the next day, others take several days, weeks, several weeks. Also, the...
