  1. Unfair Clinical Evaluations

    guest723 posted a topic in General Students

    Yeah, you're probably reading the title and are thinking: *eye roll* "Another Nursing student who thinks they deserve a better grade than they earned." I promise you, it's not that. I am at a clinical...

    I hope you're wrong.

    Do you think I have a chance at salvaging everything? It may take time to formulate new opinions. I'm definitely going to change, and I am looking forward to

  5. Unfair Clinical Evaluations

    guest723 replied to guest723's topic in General Students

    It is a perfect example. I was hoping the Nurse would take interest that I was interested in being active with questioning. I guess it can be interpreted as a challenge, or a nuisance, along those...

    guest723 replied to guest723's topic in General Students

    Yeah. I probably am coming off like a jerk. ? I don't mean to. It's difficult for me. I am book smart but I guess I am socially inept...And that makes me pretty self-conscious. I ask too many...

    guest723 replied to guest723's topic in General Students

    I know. I am thankful for it. Seriously, I am. I am not the only student facing similar issues. One Nurse harassed a student's looks, among other things. It's just the way it

  8. Unfair Clinical Evaluations

    guest723 replied to guest723's topic in General Students

    I know. She is correct. It's that the Nurses are questioned by my instructor if I do ask questions, if I am interactive, etc. If I don't ask any questions and only ask my instructor, the Nurse will...

  9. Unfair Clinical Evaluations

    guest723 replied to guest723's topic in General Students

    I asked the staff if I was defensive or argumentative. They say I am not, and that I take constructive criticism very well. I am trying to maintain peace within the department, and fulfill my role as...

    guest723 replied to guest723's topic in General Students

    Gee, god forbid I ask for clarification. Isn't that my role as a student? I am paying thousands of dollars for this education. It seems like it's best to not ask questions at all. I also got written...

  11. Unfair Clinical Evaluations

    guest723 replied to guest723's topic in General Students

    I am doing my best. Yesterday during clinical, I was asking the Nurse I was with about contacting transport for patients. The patient went to the bathroom (we were done with her) so I told the Nurse I...

    I am doing my best. Even though it is challenging to deal with these personalities, I am glad I am experiencing

  13. Unfair Clinical Evaluations

    guest723 replied to guest723's topic in General Students

    Hey guys, here is a friendly update. A nurse told me today something I did wrong, and I immediately thanked her for advice and acknowledged I will improve on a certain behavior. Additionally, I...

    Oh okay! I thought it was meant that way, haha. It's hard to distinguish these things over the

  15. Unfair Clinical Evaluations

    guest723 replied to guest723's topic in General Students

    Woah, calm down. No one said I 'couldn't handle it'. I am certainly not quitting over people---that's part of life. I have received great reviews from other clinical sites, but experiencing challenges...

    guest723 replied to guest723's topic in General Students

    I was responding to earlier posts who told me to 'ditch the notebook' and get something

  17. Unfair Clinical Evaluations

    guest723 replied to guest723's topic in General Students

    I understand your point. I have already decided to no longer offer advice. I was only trying to help. At my previous clinical site, I would offer things very similar to this and they were appreciative...

  18. Unfair Clinical Evaluations

    guest723 replied to guest723's topic in General Students

    That's exactly what I said. I said, "Would you like for me to get you a warm compress?" I did not say "should", because that's argument from authority, and that would make me look

  19. Unfair Clinical Evaluations

    guest723 replied to guest723's topic in General Students

    It's hard to get over something when I am not getting credit for things I am doing. They reported me to my PD because I even told the Nurse a procedure was done. Like seriously? I really am trying to...

    guest723 replied to guest723's topic in General Students

    My notebook is very small. It fits in my pocket. It's not large at all. Don't express interest in curiosity in other clinical sites. I was only curious because some Nurses worked at other facilities....

    guest723 posted a topic in General Students

    Hi everyone. I have a 4.0 GPA. I decided on Nursing because I love the healthcare field, and medical science. However, two weeks into the start of my Nursing program I feel completely overwhelmed. I...

  22. Not sure I can handle BSN School.

    guest723 replied to guest723's topic in General Students

    Thanks for your advice and encouragement. I'm already having an extremely rough start. I have 2 exams, a case study, a quiz, and another assignment all due Monday back-to-back. I hate to say it, but I...

  23. Not sure I can handle BSN School.

    guest723 replied to guest723's topic in General Students

    One last question for those succeeding in the program. I just spent 6 hours studying. I finished three chapters in those 6 hours, and I feel as though that isn't time effective since I only finished...

  24. Not sure I can handle BSN School.

    guest723 replied to guest723's topic in General Students

    I understand. I did the same thing in my pre-reqs. I aced every exam last year...But I was miserable because I just studied 24/7, had no fun, no breaks because I was always nervous about an exam and...

  25. Not sure I can handle BSN School.

    guest723 replied to guest723's topic in General Students

    Thank you! I have one question regarding study habits and time management. Due to the sheer volume of material per chapter, I originally wanted to get done [x] chapter done per day. However, because I...
