  1. New nurse: I get no respect

    Guest957596 replied to Nurse326's topic in Emergency

    I would say that the previous posts that said to get assertive are correct. If you don't do something now, it will continue and get worse as time goes on. Don't continue to be a pushover. The majority...

  2. Is it wrong to request PTO because you've been assigned a shift you don't want?

    Guest957596 replied to purplegal's topic in General Nursing

    I have to say you sound like you think you are entitled, that people owe you. The PRN people work PRN because thats THEIR choice, just like you chose full time. Whether they are financially...

  3. CEN 2016!

    Guest957596 replied to Lev's topic in Emergency

    Yeah, there are plenty of naysayers out there. Some people can do somethings quicker, easier, etc. than others. I'm like that. I'm going to work on TNCC as soon as my hospital offers it (which they...

  4. NCLEX August 2016 and PVT

    Guest957596 replied to justlove's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I couldn't agree with you more on both points. The PVT (I didn't try) is only an anxiety exacerbator. As for waiting, you should take any test like NCLEX as soon as possible. I am an EMT as well and...

  5. NCLEX August 2016 and PVT

    Guest957596 replied to justlove's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I agree with you. NCLEX wasn't that hard, in my opinion. I did some review after graduating, but stopped a couple of weeks before the exam. I'm a firm believer in paying attention in school and...

  6. Nursing Student with a few questions

    Guest957596 replied to Nurse2bQuestions27's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I don't know what areas are flooded but I can tell you that NE Florida is NOT. Graduate, pass NCLEX, you'll find a job. If you Google Hottest Nursing Jobs, nurse legal consultant pops right up. Of...

  7. I Don't Want to Stick a Patient

    Guest957596 replied to Nurse Beth's topic in Career Advice Column

    How about thinking instead that you are helping your patient by starting that I or help find out what's wrong with them by drawing that

  8. Skills required for starting an IV

    Guest957596 replied to allnurses's topic in General Students

    A large gauge is better than a 22 as an RBC is approximately 22ga in diameter and can lyse the cell. But you go with what you've got. From what I've seen, a 20ga is the norm except in the

  9. $15 Min Wage - Effect on RNs

    Guest957596 replied to FutureDNP2021's topic in General Nursing

    Businesses in states that have enacted $15/hr minimum wage have already felt the deleterious effects as have customers. Some restaurants have raised menu prices and stopped tipping for employees. Just...

  10. Did i pass nclex ?

    Guest957596 replied to nshah0212's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Didn't see any rudeness, just some levity. So many "freaking out, did I pass" posts. Who knows? Why ask the question? Do these posters think we know something they don't? Sent from my XT1585 using...

  12. Did i pass nclex ?

    Guest957596 replied to nshah0212's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Stop freaking out. 100 questions? That doesn't mean anything. No magic number. You can pass in 75 or 265 and vice versa. Calm down and check your state's website when available. Sent from my XT1585...

  13. How old is too old to become a new RN?

    Guest957596 replied to CathyH's topic in General Nursing

    Veteranarian going to nurse? Something wrong here. That's like an MD going to nursing school- going backwards. Sent from my XT1585 using

  14. School on Probationary Status

    Guest957596 replied to KittyBooBoo's topic in General Students

    She, her? Your Program Director, I'm assuming. Which school? Sent from my XT1585 using

    Guest957596 replied to StrawberryEllieBean's topic in General Nursing

  16. Am I wrong from refusing to help a friend?

    Guest957596 replied to Neywel120's topic in General Students

    Don't be an enabler due to imposed guilt by other people. Your friend is not a real friend. She's gonna blame you either way. Don't help her-it's your fault she fails. Help her and she fails, you...

  17. Midlife Crisis and I'm Only 22 - need some experienced experience!!

    Guest957596 replied to EmmReeCPT's topic in General Students

    Your "rambling" shows that you don't know what you want to do as your thoughts are going down several paths. The common thing here is medicine: EMS and you're in nursing school. You're 22, right?...

  18. Failed NCLEX due to anxiety! Need new review course!!

    Guest957596 replied to Yogsdaleo,RN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I understand that you have fear of enclosed spaces. I don't know where you tested, but our local Pearson Vue's exam room is pretty wide open. My initial response probably seems cold and judgmental. It...

  19. almost finished LPN with crushed hopes to become and RN?

    Guest957596 replied to Cpollock91's topic in General Students

    Keiser? Expensive, yes. But they prepare you for NCLEX. Did you mean LPN or RN? If you pass TEAS, you should get in. Sent from my XT1585 using

  20. Need advice! Pre-Nursing Student

    Guest957596 replied to Healthiswealthh's topic in General Students

    If you've exhausted all avenues, then try an LPN program. If not, keep trying for RN. Any ASN programs in your area? Sent from my XT1585 using

  21. Failed NCLEX due to anxiety! Need new review course!!

    Guest957596 replied to Yogsdaleo,RN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    If you need drugs to take a test, you don't need to be a nurse. You can't take drugs to handle the stress of taking care of people. Sent from my XT1585 using
