nursing/medical shorthand and symbols
-
0 Hi everybody. I'm planning on starting my BSN this fall and am hoping to get a head start on a few things. Does anyone know of a website that has all of the nursing/medical shorthand and symbols? I want to start studying them now, that way there will be less to study then.
Or, if somebody has this in a document, please PM me and I'll get you my email address.
Thanks!

1Feb 4, '08 by hbgwanI did but I couldn't seem to find anything exhaustive. There were a couple of sites that offered a bit but not much. I found a website that acronyms (i.e. PRN = as needed) but nothing with the actual symbols (i.e. 'c' with a line over it for 'with').tlowharris6 likes this.

Came up on a Google search (first link).
A good medical dictionary will include abbreviations and symbols too.sharona97 likes this.
