Thank you for your help :)

Do you happen to know the best apartment complexes in Farmingtonn or Kirtland to live in? I have been trying to find one on the internet but have been unsuccessful so far. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

I smell a troll

you did the right thing. you can not endager the pt you are with to help another pt, especially if there are other nurses helping the other pt. I have een in this position before and have always finished up what I was doing then went to see if I was ...

Never never never..take a deep breath and count to 100 or put on your poker face

It was pretty easy, and the homework/chapter problems do resemble the mid term and final exams. Just time consuming is all.

do not take any co req's with any block if nursing. Save it for the summer if you can.

I try to use all the features on the pumps, especially the VTBI and the Time Remaining features. I program the pumps so that it alarms when I have one hour of fluids left..that way my short half life fluids never get close to running dry. VTBI is gre...

Nurses are human and should not have to take crap like this...but as long as management veiw nursing as a customer service industry and not a care industry (and nurses do not stand up for each other and make excuses for this type of behavior), this a...

I do not tolerate abuse, not physical not verbal. I do not care what state of mind a patient is in, it is just not called for. People are not allowed to go to a fast food place and verbally and physically assult the workers, so why should we allow ou...

Unfortunatly, we allow as many as can squeeze in and yes we must scurry to find chairs for all of them. I wish hospitals would have set visiting times and set limits on the number of people allowed in the room. pt care would be easier, because time ...

having had both, I prefer knowledgable. nothing like being in serious trouble and having a "caring nurse" trying to give you comfort instead of running for a doctor to stop the internal hemorraging. warm and fuzzi is overrated. besides, being knowle...

Please just toss the tubing. Do not put the pt at risk over saving the hospital money. Whatever you do, do not flush that nitro into the pt quikly, because you can bottem him out, resulting in a bad day for both of you. Besides, once the nitro has b...

I thank the nurses who work ED so I do not have to. However, the drama does continue when these pt hit the floor. For example: - the ED nurse said you would get me and my family a full tray even though it is 0200 (this from a guy with a massive GI b...

I scratch your back, you scratch mine. As long as she is using the break times to pump. I think it is okay. The moment I found out that she is not using the extra time(outside of regular break times) to pump, I would stop helping her. This is more ju...

-When was the last time you had actual contact with a real patient? real life nursing is alot different than the fancy"book learning nursing" you have done for soo many years. -if I have to spend massive amounts of time in a patient's room (who is su...

It occurs where I work, however I am not a fan of it. I give my regular report at the nurses station and then I go into the room with the off going/on coming nurse. I do not give or recieve any report in the room other than checking drips, wounds, in...

Go away!! If you can not take the heat, get out of the kitchen!!!

i wish people who are sensitive to things said on venting threads would stay away from them. their insecurities and "issues" ruin what would otherwise be a very good time!!!

"No, I will not hold your penis for you to urinate. Neither one of your hands are broken, nor have you had a stroke." This is the most common thing for men to want. They ask even when they know that you know they are capable (did it by themselves all...

Never question the beautiful, beautiful brown brew that keeps some of us alive.:bowingpur

I went to gateway and used saunders nclex review book all four blocks. It helped me to ace my exams.

GCU is fully acredited, I know many people who have done the RN-BSN and also who have done their NP and are now working as NP's. GCU also hasa regular in person program for getting a 4 year RN or RN-BSN.

I am in the online RN to BSN at Grand Canyon University. I just started , but it seems okay.
