   Clinical Rotation In COVID Unit

   Lynker replied to Elice's topic in COVID

   My school had us fit for N95s just in case, but they won't and will not allow us to be assigned to COVID-19 patients.

   Flying solo after 2 ‘training shifts’

   Lynker replied to newgrad41's topic in New Nurse

   How did you end up doing? I know LTC can really wear you down sometimes. Do you have any questions? I think of myself as pretty well-versed in LTC.

   When should I apply for my first new grad residency/job? Should I stay at my LPN job?

   Lynker posted a topic in New Nurse

   I graduate in about 4 months (yay!!) with my ASN/RN. After I take the NCLEX, I obviously plan on working! So I have two questions: When should I start applying for new grad RN programs/jobs? I think I want to start with med surg in a hospital, b...

   I need to post about how proud I am of myself

   Lynker replied to Lynker's topic in General Students

   So, I'm heading to the med surg 2/critical care semester, my last semester in ADN school in about three weeks! Does anyone have any tips for me?

   Do you ever get disappointed when certain nurses call in?

   Lynker replied to SilverBells's topic in Nursing

   Absolutely! Sometimes I get happy when bad coworkers call off LOL. But when my favorites aren't there or call out, it's definitely a bad vibe for the day.

   No, not at my school at least. We need a 73 for our projects and such to be added. So I think it's similar to yours.

   Why does it feel like it's taking forever?

   Lynker replied to Joe V's topic in General Students

   This is soooo true. I just finished my third semester of RN school, onto the fourth. May this time between now and May pass quickly!

   The Impact of Christmas

   Lynker replied to LanaWRN's topic in Nursing

   Absolutely beautiful. Just because we're away from our families during holidays (and any other time, for that matter) doesn't mean we can't have fun and make lasting memories with our patients!

    I got a counseling letter because I refused to help another staff member with her personal problems?

    Lynker replied to Convoy2022_TrumpSupporter's topic in Nursing

    I get you want to keep your business away from other staff, but really? You couldn't give her a few minutes of your time? No offense, but I would not want a nurse like you taking care of me, man to man. I can't imagine being so rigid and uncarin...

    Considering Quitting My Job- Had Enough (Kind of a Vent Post)

    Lynker replied to sideshowstarlet's topic in Nursing

    By this logic, would they expect the full-timer to never get sick or need a day off? This job sounds shifty. It's a big no from me. ?‍♂️

    Lynker replied to Lynker's topic in General Students

    I bombed my exam today, I got a 70%. The good news is that I only need a 66% on my final to pass. I'm feeling very low right now though. Disappointed in myself for sure....

    I just need to talk about it. I'm almost there.

    So proud of you! I needed to hear this with another exam tomorrow ?

    Monday, I got an 80% on my second exam! This feels so unreal. I'm so happy! ? One more exam then the final. Then onto my last semester!!

    Do you ever wonder...

    Lynker replied to SilverBells's topic in Nursing

    I feel this way sometimes. I go to work at the nursing home and go "Okay, now it's all on me?" and it doesn't feel real. Soon I'll feel the same way with my RN....
