    I feel like I don't belong

    Wiggly Litchi replied to TinyAide's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Don't worry, Tiny! I think a lot of this stems from needing to build your confidence. You feel out of place because you're new, and that's ok! I can bet that anyone who hasn't worked in food service...

    I want to become a nurse but my husband says I will be always sick and unhappy

    Wiggly Litchi replied to kgoesbacktocollege's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I work in healthcare and my fiance works in healthcare and we're both hardly ever sick. Practice good hand hygiene, use your PPE at the appropriate times, and don't let a germaphobe put you off...

    Realizing how difficult nursing school is

    Wiggly Litchi replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Try not to panic and psych yourself out. I'm currently taking patho and it's not too bad, but I am able to critically think about the material as I learn it. One thing that helps me when I study is to...

    Failed anatomy...are there other options

    Wiggly Litchi replied to Jessa92's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Depends on which school you're going to or if you plan to transfer to - either way, a D in anatomy doesn't make you competitive and many won't accept less than a C. Your best option is to retake it...

    Interview Attire?

    Wiggly Litchi replied to supergirlnurse's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I agree - short-shorts and studded leather jackets should be verboten too... Had someone show up to an interview at a facility I was working at wearing that attire. She got the job. Says a lot about...

    Wiggly Litchi replied to supergirlnurse's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Before this thread, I had no idea that there were so many definitions of business casual haha. So I did what any confused brit would do... And searched google images. I'm definitely leaning more...

    Best shoes for work?

    Wiggly Litchi replied to Alohalani_RN's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    As previous posters have said, it's going to vary person to person. I loved my Alegria clogs and I wore those until they practically fell apart. Others have sworn by the hard supports in Dankso...

    Interview Attire?

    Wiggly Litchi replied to supergirlnurse's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Business casual all the way. I agree with the no jeans rule/sneakers rule. Some wear scrubs but I was always warned against doing so. A good rule of thumb for interview-worthy dresses as Sour said is...

    Any Buddhist Nurses?

    Wiggly Litchi replied to CriticalJ's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    Academic Burnout

    Wiggly Litchi replied to Wiggly Litchi's topic in General Students

    Thanks Milady! A staycation doesn't sound bad actually... I might see if I can swing one at the end of this semester. It'd be really nice to go see the ocean for a few

    Wiggly Litchi replied to remorse's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I would love to see a 12-step program for masala addiction. Serious question about this though: So basically, if you get dx'd with depression and need meds to help control it, that's reportable to...

    Wiggly Litchi replied to caffeinequeen26's topic in General Students

    I'm waiting on my acceptance too... Should hear something in the next couple of weeks. I have a pretty good chance of being selected, but there's always that "what if?". I try not to think about it -...

    Failed A&P 1... idk what to do

    Wiggly Litchi replied to cardenas_a's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You've still got to pass A&P though, so as a previous poster said - find out why you failed this time. Did you not gel with the professor? (It happens, and it's ok!) Would you benefit from...

    Wiggly Litchi replied to aquakenn's topic in General Students
