Things you would love to say to your fellow nursing students!

Published

Along the lines of the first thread, "Things you would love to say to your nursing instructors" I thought this would be a great thread to start. I've since graduated LVN but there was one main thing I wanted to say to some students in my class.

Will you people in the back row please stop talking! I swear that today I can still hear their motormouths running! :chuckle

When I am in the RN bridge I will come back and post some more. I'm sure some of you have something to get off your chest. Come on and unload here! :)

Good Lord... I know everyone is just ranting and blowing off steam but I am SOOOOOOOO happy I don't know anyone in my nursing program that are like the people posting on this board. Just sayin'

You mean the people we are posting about? Because otherwise I have to ask, does that mean you enjoy nonstop talking and to hear about someone's entire extended family's medical ailments every minute of class? lol

Just because a student is smart and getting "A's" doesn't mean that they have any less anxiety than the person getting a "C". Give them a break they are struggling too.

You said OR is really your calling, after seeing your patient interactions and the things you say about every one of them, I agree! You will work best in a situation where your patients are under sedation :|

In reference to the Patient or Students? Cause I would take one for both at some times!

Students in this case, especially the ones who bring up a family member that has every disease we talk about. If every disease on the face of the planet runs in your family, why are you sitting in class instead of getting tons of tests ran?????????????

Yeah I would say it more to students then patients. I have had mostly great patients the ones that got on my nerves more were in the post partum unit LOL

I would have loved to tell the young girl yesterday though that was at the hospital all day and night for her friends labor that I don't think it was exactly an appropriate situation for your 5 month old baby. Especially when we went to check moms cervix and kicked you all out and you left the baby AWAKE in the car seat in the room with us :| I also don't think that you having one kid at 17 makes you an expert on having babies and need to tell me why your friend is hungry and it should be fine for her to eat this huge meal when she is in active labor because you did. I have 4 kids, I am not new to labor and unless you plan on cleaning up moms throw up then bug off!!!!

No kidding. You must be in my class.

LOL Good Luck "Telling them off"....Yes it was completely childish that they did that, and she definitely should have said something about it, or not talked to them at all...but I don't see "telling them off" as a good way to get through a professional program of study:):stdnrsrck:

You can bet my RN license if I'd heard it, they'd have gotten well told off, and in no uncertain terms. Not talking to them at all enables the problem - the exact same issue we're having in schools with kids.

The fact that these were apparently adults is disgusting.

Sorry I'm a bit late to the party but I had to put in my :twocents:. Yes, it's a flaw... :) LOL

"No, I don't remember what I put for question 15 on the exam. I don't have photographic memory. Could you maybe give me a little hint as to the content of the question?"

"Oh. My. God. Did you really just annouce your STD symptoms to the entire class? :barf02: TMI! I never thought I would wish so much that you were just going to tell us another installment in the saga of Aunt Martha's gout."
