So I know I really can't say anything until I hear from the clinical manager, but I wanted to share my experience. So I did end up having an interview with the clinical manager at a short stay unit. I prepared a portfolio with a cover letter, resume,...

I had clinicals on a neuro floor and from the experiences I had honestly I say it takes a special type of nurse to work on a neuro floor. 95% of these patients are unable to do anything for them selves and seeing them unable to communicate really hur...

Well, I guess I learned from this mistake. I dont think it'll go against me. As nurses we use therapeutic touch. A hug shouldn't hurtí ½í¸…

Just out of curiosity, is there a reason why? I see a hug as a meaningful and warm gesture and definitely not something you would do if you do not feel comfortable with someone.

Yes, I am a new grad. I asked her what intrigued her about my resume that she decided to give me a chance to interview and she said that graduates from my college had a great reputation and have done well on her floor so I'm hoping that being a new g...

Hello guys Sorry I am unsure of where to post this question but I am a graduate nurse and I have the opportunity with a manager at a short-stay unit in a hospital. I am wondering if this would be a good unit to start out on and what it entails. Thank...

Hey guys, I have pharmacology online this semester and I can't really understand how to do these IV problems. Can anyone guide me through this question: Ordered: Aminophyline 21 mL/hour On hand: Aminophyline 300 mg/250 ml NS How many mg/hour should t...

Hm so its as simple as that?! Makes more sense now. Thank you so much!

I'm just confused in general how to set up the problem. We have the on hand that is 300mg/250 ml. Then the ordered is 21 ml/hour. The question wants mg per hour. I just dont get how to set up the problem because if I try doing it with dimensional ana...

Youre gonna have to buy the package from the bookstore unfortunately. The teachers will be giving you assignments online.

I think I can speak for all of us when I say it was a REALLY bumpy ride í ½í¸… But we made amazing friends along the way. Enjoy your last weeks summer!!

What do you guys think of classes so far?

Were the clinical sizes small?

Good luck!! I dont start until tomorrow. Let us know how it goes.

Its too heavy

Yeah i agree about the parent thing lol. Lets get through this semester before we start worrying about NCLEX Im sure we'll be fine. By the way do tou know what a PPE kit is? Is it the bag with the masks and gloves in the kit?

I was thinking of bringing my husband but why are they asking us to bring someone if we are going go be matched up with mentors? Id rather come alone lolí ½í¸‚

By the way do you guys know what a disposable penlight is? Does it stop working after a certain amount of uses? The disposable penlights have the pupil sizes on them while the regular ones dont.

I didn't take anything out because everything is packed so perfectly, I'm afraid I wont be able to get it all back in! I only saw a fluids bag. I'm hoping this at least lasts us the semester

Are you guys ready?? Classes are about to start!! Did you guys buy the kits yet or not? A friend told me theyre in. Ill be going tomorrow to buy the kit and the books. I also got some school supplies and a new backpack! So excited to start;)

Yeah i wonder why they did that. I feel so frumpy in them

Will you get yhem in time? Maybe you can have them altered.

Yup I got them!!My problem now is that the pant legs are soo long! They will go underneath my shoes if I wear them and Ill be stepping on them. Im probably going to have to get them altered.

Its so awesome we made it in together!! How was the reading?? Im not in section one so that sucks Im in section two. But deff if you ever wanna study let me know!! The teachers probably all follow the same schedule right??

LOOLL you have noooooo idea I always think about you and if you ever made it out!!! I am soooo happy for you :))) congrats!!!! I also saw you at the orientation but I wasnt sure if it was you so I didnt say hi. I'll def say hi next time I see you :)
