    No NCLEX-RN results yet, but got the "good pop up"

    NunNurseCat replied to JoiCam's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Sorry no one replied. I will drop in to say by virtue of your thoroughness, random person you are, I would bet $101 that you passed the exam. Besides if you didn't pass, can't you just take the exam...

    New grad on med surg unit

    NunNurseCat replied to NurseLAE's topic in General Nursing

    Bad messed up

    NunNurseCat replied to pcbeachbum's topic in Nurses Recovery

    If not nursing what other career would you have done?

    NunNurseCat replied to nurse2bnoob101's topic in General Nursing

    I would absolutely be an airline pilot. I do fly, but getting paid to fly passengers around would be ideal. It'd be stressful for sure, but also

    Video RN screaming, dragged into police car d/t refused blood draw on unconscious patient!

    NunNurseCat replied to SummitRN's topic in General Nursing

    Another irony: Take this Detective's behavior, bring it back to colonial America, and what do you get? One of the main reasons people got fed up and declared independence from Great Britain. Seems...

    How to deal with a bully patient?

    Did I harm the patient??

    NunNurseCat replied to RN3468's topic in General Nursing

    If you had hit the sciatic nerve the patient would have uncontrollably jerked away. Even getting close to a nerve can be really painful once you start to push. A good stick is usually in the...
