Sorry for any confusion!

Ohhh I see! I was all looking on skyscape trying to find how they got $500 worth of software. lol! However, I'm thinking I'll need some in addition to constellation so I'm glad I looked. Kinda curious why it has coding software (who cares??) but not the IV drug or the procedures one (for example). Seems silly to me. I'm definitely adding on IV drugs either this fall or for sureby spring for ICU rotation!

If it helps you at all, these are the things that my school wanted us to get. (yes we have the coding too...)
