1. Panel Interview for NICU Residency

   em96 replied to neyya15's topic in NICU, Neonatal

   My interview was mainly behavioral questions since it was a new grad interview! I was asked: Why did you want to become a nurse? Why do you want to work in NICU? If you see a coworker doing something...

2. First injection mistake

   em96 replied to Newstudent4's topic in General Students

   I think you're okay, no need to say anything. One nurse I followed never swabbed the skin before insulin injections because she said diabetics never do that when they're at home. I don't know if...

   It's for OR which doesn't have a specific location. Apparently we rotate around until we get hired to a specific hospital, which is interesting! I think it's a good sign for those of you who haven't...

7. I'm too afraid to do anything in the clinical setting

   em96 replied to CurrentlyCrying's topic in General Students

   My advice is "fake it 'til you make it!" Why do you feel like it must be "extremely awkward" for your female patients? I don't think it is. Especially for just a quick 5-min assessment. The patients...

8. Nervous for clinical

   em96 replied to Siudzm's topic in General Students

   It's normal to be nervous! I was super anxious when I started clinicals, and I still get nervous when I'm going to a new rotation (I'm finishing up my first year in my BSN program). I didn't have any...

    No, I can't figure it out at all:down: I emailed both the assistant and my advisor but I doubt I'll get a response today. Hopefully someone else will chime in and tell us how to do

    Congratulations everyone, I was accepted today as well! I'm also confused by the response form. It won't let me continue unless i check that I failed patho/pharm or that I am an international student,...
