    To tell or not to tell?

    Extra Pickles replied to nursingRN123's topic in General Students

    I don't know if I'm misunderstanding something but as I see it if the students are using an online study tool that legitimately posts questions available from the publisher of the textbook, and the...

    NJ License application help after passing nclex exams Nov 2007 with no ss number

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

    it makes sense you would not have to take the nclex again if you have proof of passing it but it makes no sense that they would keep your application for ten years afterward. I think you have to...

    Physical exam

    Extra Pickles replied to Baynurse2b88's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think she means she's having a physical as a requirement for school admission and being allowed on clinical sites. If you don't have the vaccinations you need you will need to get them, otherwise...

    Question about loan forgiveness opportunities in Hospital job contracts?

    Extra Pickles replied to David596's topic in General Nursing

    government jobs sometimes offer a low rate of interest in consolidating student debt and sometimes have loan forgiveness options but you shouldn't count on that as a guarantee. Most places no, don't...

    Extra Pickles replied to SEJUP23's topic in General Students

    I'm sure someone must have because every program has people who fail out at every stage of the program. What is it that you're really

    Does the same rules apply to doctors

    Extra Pickles replied to mrsfoster601's topic in General Nursing

    I thought the requirement for BLS was set by the employer, not the board of nursing or medical licensing board. If I were to stop working and don't renew my BLS I'm almost certain I could keep my...

    Is this a real fact? Where did you find it? I was curious so I started looking and everything I found so far indicated a nearly even

    NCLEX testing in 1 state, license in another

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

    You must have your test results sent to the board of nursing that has your application and issued your authorization to test. Sending your results to California results in no license anywhere....

    Extra Pickles replied to lruby88's topic in General Nursing

    no one can do anything but guess as to whether you will be able to get a full time position but my own gut guess is that an employer sees you worked 1.5 years and then quit, and now months later want...

    Did you choose nursing because it was your "calling"?

    Extra Pickles replied to Corgilicious's topic in General Students

    you're welcome :) I'm a believer myself but it can get hard to handle those who feel like there's only one way to know the Lord. Too many people don't understand that living a good and productive...

    Pearsonvue unofficial result shows I failed the exam

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

    or depending on the state no more than 3 times total. foreign students have a harder time passing the nclex than native ones so failure isn't the end of the world just means you have to find a...

    Did you choose nursing because it was your "calling"?

    Extra Pickles replied to Corgilicious's topic in General Students

    Many people will have no problem being both an atheist and a nurse. Living and dying is part of the fascinating process of science and evolution, and for many that's enough. I've seen some of the...

    Going Back For Nursing

    Extra Pickles replied to Marieh's topic in General Students

    It sounds weird to me that your school only counts A&P I for points and not A&P II, since it's the second course that compounds on the first and a better indication of how you're doing overall...

    Daytona State Fall 2017

    Extra Pickles replied to Bonnie Bailey's topic in School, College Programs

    NO. This should concern you. They stand at not being accredited. Still a NO. As they only just started this program a matter of months ago, they have to accept everyone who applies. I don't...

    What do you think?

    Extra Pickles replied to petertheparrot's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Then why did you just post yesterday that you are looking to leave that job too? You were asking the same questions you got answers to here, so I don't know what you'd learn that would be different...

    Would it be Wrong?

    Extra Pickles replied to kellylauren's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Kelly, this wouldn't be a romantic Against All Odds kind of thing, it'd be a career-ending kind of thing if the nurse you have feelings for did anything more at this point than wish you a good day....

    Failed clinical just before the two weeks of graduation

    Extra Pickles replied to rnnvrgiveup's topic in General Students

    I think something is missing from this story. I've never heard of a student dismissed from a program two weeks before graduation for something as minor as not reporting safe vital signs, even if you...

    Gun Owning Nurses

    Extra Pickles replied to hppygr8ful's topic in General Nursing

    About the same as I feel about anyone being a gun owner, some people are cautious and safe and others are reckless and stupid. Some people treat guns with respect and know when they shouldn't have...

    Extra Pickles replied to saccardi7027's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    you already paid for the course, so do it. if you trusted your instructors to get you eligible to take the exam why wouldn't you trust them to get you ready to pass it? You can always study outside...

    Men in Nursing

    Extra Pickles replied to L.Cisneros's topic in Men in Nursing

    My thought is that as long as the person can do the job I don't care if it's a man or a woman or a leprechaun. Ok, maybe a leprechaun would have a hard time what with being vertically challenged and...
