    ednurse17 replied to Nette's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

  6. Working full-time versus part-time as FNP student?

    ednurse17 replied to Nurse_Shelly1's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I went to weekend option at work. I'm an ER nurse and worked Friday and Saturday nights during NP school. Very do-able. You won't be able to work 12 hour shifts during the week once you start...

  11. Verbally abusive patient, worried I could have handled the situation better

    ednurse17 replied to NurseMom2016's topic in General Nursing

    I probably wouldn't acted the same way you did. You don't reward people for bad behavior. When he said he was ready to leave, I would've taken out the IV's and foley and said "peace out"... He'll be...

  12. Amazon Textbook Rentals?

    ednurse17 replied to longwayup's topic in General Students

    I usually just copy and paste the ISBN # in the search bar and see who's the cheapest. I agree with all the above posts. Chegg is great, campusbookrentals is great

    ednurse17 replied to longwayup's topic in General Students

    ednurse17 replied to TarheelGirlx3's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Hey everyone. I am thinking about applying to Frontier. I just received my BSN in October. I haven't taken a statistics class yet. Do you think this will hold me back on getting accepted? I'm from NC...

  18. Required By Work to Get BSN - Don't Want to Write Endless Papers

    ednurse17 replied to Nurse Beth's topic in Career Advice Column

    I'm earning my RN to BSN through Aspen University. Yes, there are papers to write, but I'm learning so much! It's doable. I'm working full-time and have a 3.9 average! Aspen is affordable.

  19. How to deal with angry doctors

    ednurse17 replied to ann915's topic in First Year After Licensure

    These doctors signed up for this. They get paid nicely for what they do. I've been a nurse now for 20 years and don't take a lot of crap off any of them. I'd report the threat, which that is what...

  20. My first pediatric code...still shaken

    ednurse17 replied to rnparker's topic in Emergency

    Just like the other nurses have said, kids can turn quickly. Good rule of thumb is when you know a pediatric is coming in resp, go ahead and call RT for backup. It gets better! Hang in

    ednurse17 replied to digoe74's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    She'd better think about a career change. Exposure to bodily fluids will be on a daily basis if she chooses bedside

  24. Pubic hair

    ednurse17 replied to nurseJLoo's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with WitchyRN. Nurses have enough to do, if it needs to be clipped ie for surgery, yes, I'll do it. Otherwise, they are on their own. I'm not a prude either.... as far as what they look like...

  25. 2 nights of triage hell

    ednurse17 replied to EmerNurse's topic in Emergency

    Bless your heart x 2!! 3 nights in a row in triage?? 2 is the absolute max for me. These docs need to realize we DO have a clue and get a grip. Fortunately the docs in our ER are pretty good about...
