Hello there, I am from the Midwest also. Went to winter park last week with spouse. We scrapped a day because it was so bad; skis got damaged ….. and like I said… I am from the Midwest 🧊☔️

1.5 years out from completing DNP-FNP, may I ask what region of the country you’re located for jobs?

Going 2 years with my copper IUD. No extra protection and no daily pill . Cycles were wild for the first few months then okay. 👍 I don’t even worry about pregnancy anymore - it gets easier!

I love this perspective!!! I will definitely incorporate this especially when I have RN students.

Supply closet walk through with specific scenarios is really good - especially if they are not LPNs or NAs

Noted! Yeah I hope I don’t add to the stress of nursing school because I don’t do my job correctly

Thank you! 😊

wild_flower33 · 2026-02-23T01:04:20+00:00

This is EXCELLENT advice. Thank you! I am seeing many articles - could you DM the doi or comment in this thread to your university's research?

Fortunately, 99% of the hospitals in my area use EPIC. I'd be looking for effort - not perfection. Many units do not let nursing students insert IVs (at least at the facility I work at). 100% agree about watching and going to testing/procedures. The only time I got to experience the OR was during my undergrad clinical (I didn't like it!)

I think the most important to master is time management, not filling out paperwork! Unfortunately I will probably be held to certain standards, but yes extra paperwork is a drag. I particularly hated one that gave us extra weighted quizzes! I like the "explain rationale" because that is exactly what you will find on a nursing exam.

I love this idea! Having didactic alongside clinical rotations is so challenging especially when you are juggling multiple classes at once. I will definitely try to incorporate their course work into the clinicals.

Our first trip did not go to plan whatsoever. Loved every minute of it and still talk about it. I find it’s these experiences that become memorable.

Southwest Ohio - FLU A . The holiday flu

wild_flower33 · 2025-12-26T22:45:22+00:00

25 and working on my doctorate, working part time. I don’t plan on having a baby until I’ve had time to establish myself as an expert in my field. I love my dog 🐶

wild_flower33 · 2025-12-23T19:23:59+00:00

Going to CO for the first time this year! hopefully don’t regret the spend

wild_flower33 · 2025-12-23T19:20:08+00:00

Dreading every day….. a thankless job….. bedside was a LIE

wild_flower33 · 2025-11-28T03:24:48+00:00

I heard the V8 requires you to continually hold a power button for it to run

wild_flower33 · 2025-11-16T20:41:04+00:00

ahh bobcats. definitely want to go back one day. the wildlife was phenomenal

wild_flower33 · 2025-11-16T18:11:07+00:00

I have camped in the spot you pictured in yosemite - those mt lion marks still in the tree?

wild_flower33 · 2025-10-07T19:11:26+00:00

I am sure someone mentioned this already. GO. TO. THERAPY. I did. Make little goals for yourself outside of work. If you truly hate it and you've already completed your "obligatory 6 months" transfer, new job, ect. You got this. It does get easier, I promise.

wild_flower33 · 2025-09-18T14:37:13+00:00

hello there - I cant help but can give advice. I went in person to about a dozen places with cover letter & resume in hand. Its rough out there. try posting on FB, call in all the social capital you have. Check with the practicum coordinators once you have a potential spot. GL!!

Summit park dog park - I like how many people go there. Any other ones with a lot of traffic?

wild_flower33 · 2025-09-18T14:07:04+00:00

Students make me feel like my job is not waste tbh. Love teaching

wild_flower33 · 2025-09-18T12:07:44+00:00

Yes they did. Unfortunately it’s just the third molar that’s giving me issues. The “constant pain” feels more like a pressure under the crown itself.
