    Alarm Fatigue Design Feedback

    Rionoir replied to Cags_'s topic in General Nursing

    Have you shadowed any nurses yet as part of your research? I think it would make it much easier for you to put your idea together if you experienced a couple of twelve hour shifts for yourself, if...

    I made a med error and feel so disappointed with myself

    Rionoir replied to barbzRNBSN's topic in General Nursing

    I’m just curious how hitting accept first would’ve prevented giving the wrong route? I’ve been trained to give them then hit accept because if you drop a med or the patient doesn’t actually...

    Pre-student in need of advice

    Rionoir replied to Eyeing the Field's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I mean most of the programs I've looked at it's 3 years instead of 2 - doesn't seem like a huge deal? Note DNPs are clinical doctorates not PhDs, so you don't have to do your own research for your...

    so lost

    Rionoir replied to Idkwhattoput's topic in General Nursing

    Your manager is telling you that right now you are suited for med-surg. If you apply to another department that is the person they are going to talk to. Most likely if you want to stay at the...

    Is this resident abuse and should be reported?

    Rionoir replied to Aurelia Torvinus's topic in General Nursing

    Also, if you start reporting things like this (i.e., nothing), no one is going to take you seriously when you actually see something worth

    Neuro ICU to Nursery?

    Rionoir replied to ilovebirds's topic in General Specialties

    When I went to the interview for my current position I was wearing scrubs, looked like a tornado hit me, said “sorry it’s been a day” and had a cup of coffee... and beat out the other...

    How long to get license issued?

    Rionoir replied to hopefulRNktm's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    WI took less than 24 hours - I was still waiting for my quick results to be available when they emailed me and said it was issued.

    NCLEX

    Rionoir replied to Courtney Fritzler's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I found the in-person Kaplan sessions to be the most beneficial. You can know all the content in the world, but if you can't figure out the best option you aren't going to pass

    Studying For NCLEX

    Rionoir replied to studentnurse_92's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I didn't do any NCLEX until graduation. We had our in-person Kaplan sessions the week after classes were finished, I took 3-4 weeks to finish the rest of the program and took my test and passed in...

    ICU or IMU telemetry?

    Rionoir replied to RNTX1's topic in General Nursing

    How old are you? It's a year - that's basically nothing. Magnet hospitals are amazing to work at, I would definitely get my foot in the door

    How Can a New Grad Stand Out When Applying to ED?

    Rionoir replied to tinysnailRN's topic in General Students

    If you’re working in a hospital already, work with your manager to get a referral, assuming you are doing a good job. I was working on a med surg unit as an extern my final semester and my manager...

    Tips/resources for reviewing anatomy before nursing school?

    Rionoir replied to oneday_nursepoundcake's topic in General Students

    You’ll review physiology as you study different body systems in your nursing courses as it’s relevant. I would just refresh as it comes up - usually there’s a bit of it included in your

    Change answers on fundamental test? What is your thoughts?

    Rionoir replied to Beaue's topic in General Students

    When you’re preparing for NCLEX those types of questions are almost always “tell the supervisor” and don’t confront the person directly. However, you should just get used to this now because...

    Why are so many nurses against unions?

    Rionoir replied to Icunicenurse's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    I am 43 and nursing is a third career for me. I have worked all over the world and in a variety of fields, basically checking off my bucket list of careers lol. The hospital I decided to work at is...

    Residency or no residency?

    Rionoir replied to BreH's topic in General Students

    We don't really have residency programs near me either, but we can do externships during our final semester of school. I found that to be extremely beneficial and grew a lot during my last semester...

    Hello I have a few questions

    Rionoir replied to Martina22's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    An ADN/RN requires two years of nursing courses and clinicals IN ADDITION to the prerequisites you are doing. So from the sounds of it, no you are not close to completing that and you won’t be able...

    Surge Pay

    Rionoir replied to Icualltheway's topic in General Nursing

    Time and a half+ is an insult? So don't take it... I guess if everyone is that greedy they'll have to up it some more. If I was working there I'd be working all the shifts they'd give me
