  3. Ati exit predictor help

    LunaTunaPineapple replied to Jdortch21's topic in General Students

    Read the rationales to all answers, even the ones that are wrong because they give useful information. Utilize the remediation recommendations because they are helpful too. You gain more knowledge...

  4. LVN keeps personal notes about patients

    LunaTunaPineapple replied to VegGal's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Yeah, that's true. If they know about it, then it can be subpoenaed. An risky practice. I do it on occasion (clinical days) , but on my second day I toss them. Goodness forbid we'd find ourselves in...

  5. LVN keeps personal notes about patients

    LunaTunaPineapple replied to VegGal's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Hey! I'm not sure it's a HIPAA violation, but I was once advised to keep my shift brain sheets to be sure I can cover myself. I don't think it's such a bad idea, but I could see your reason for...

  6. Advice needed! LVN to ADN or to BSN?

    LunaTunaPineapple replied to SsSpeaceandnursing's topic in General Students

    Hello. From the looks of your situation, I would choose the LVN-ADN. Then you can later try for an Advanced Track BSN program at the university ( my current plan ). Your acceptance into the BSN...

    That's nothing, but the truth. I see it everyday at clinicals :) I appreciate that because it just inspired

  9. Oh, the frustration.

    LunaTunaPineapple posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm currently working on draft 3 of my "Why I want to be a nurse" essay and goodness knows I feel like it'll never be good enough. I can barely express my thoughts verbally, let alone written. Part of...

  14. Do grades mean much?

    LunaTunaPineapple replied to Zooey72's topic in General Students

    I'm late, but the grades do matter. Aside from being competent and knowledgeable, better grades give you wiggle room. You may graze by all semester with "just passing" scores. You'll quickly come to...

    LunaTunaPineapple replied to rianbell1's topic in General Students

    You're feelings aren't uncommon. This is the "crunch time" for all nursing students. Stay focused and don't get down. Your biggest concern will be the NCLEX come soon. Best of

    LunaTunaPineapple replied to ladybug_01's topic in General Nursing

    Hi ladybug, I'm really sorry that you're having trouble, but honey there is always hope. Don't give up just yet! Your first step is to speak with your professor about your scores and ways you can...

  17. Nursing student. Need some advice!

    LunaTunaPineapple replied to alyssahope0119's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hello :) I say "EXPAND". You need to try more schools and programs (University, Community College, ADN , LPN etc). Where there is a will there is a way! Many people make the mistake of throwing out...

  18. CLEP exam question

    LunaTunaPineapple replied to Quota's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Its Pass or Fail. I took Psychology CLEP and passed. I would seriously recommended buying a book and studying for it. It's not easy. Good

  19. Pregnant in full time LPN program anyone else ?

    LunaTunaPineapple replied to Conejo610's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Since you're giving birth in the last month, they may work with you, but like your program, my program is very strict. We have a pregnant student who was put on probation for absences due to the birth...

  20. Community college vs trade school? LVN program.

    LunaTunaPineapple replied to aiyatabdelhady's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    The LVN license may add additional points to your application, but those required classes are still needed. Each program may require different courses, so requiring certain courses will ensure you...

  23. Narcotic Count Sheet

    LunaTunaPineapple posted a topic in Patient Medications

    Hi, Luna here. I'm hoping to get some understanding of how the narcotic count sheet is to be signed. At my place of work ( a home care position) we have to sign a narcotic sheet for each controlled...

  24. Narcotic Count Sheet

    LunaTunaPineapple replied to LunaTunaPineapple's topic in Patient Medications

    Thanks! It just bothers me because I'm new to this position. The person who works prior to my shift always seems to forget to sign or gives an extra dose without signing, throwing the count. I noticed...

    LunaTunaPineapple replied to B1394's topic in School, College Programs

    I would definitely advise you to bridge, I doubt it will cause you to lag behind. I'm still in the LPN program and won't be graduating until December. Eastern Florida State recently opened up the...
