3rd semester of 4 ADN students, what are you learning?

Nursing Students General Students

Specializes in Telemetry.

I'm just curious to see how other programs are arranged.

This semester (3 of 4) we are doing maternity nursing, and more med/surg.

Our medsurg topics are the following:

IV Therapy

Musculoskeletal disorders

Connective Tissue disorders

Emergency Nursing and Client management

Liver/Gallbladder/Pancreas

Congenital Heart Disease

Cardiac

As far as cardiac goes, we did cardiac last semester as well, so I'm thinking this will be more in depth than before.

Also, how is your pacing of the material covered? We cover each topic in a week, and have a test every week. Is this similar for every one?

Just curious! :)

Specializes in Medical/Surgical, L&D, Postpartum.

I did OB/Peds 2nd semester, this semester I am doing psych/med/surg. For the first 8 weeks I am in the psych hospital, and for the second 8 weeks I am on the med/surg unit. We have 6 tests, one every 2 weeks and a final. The tests are a combination of psych and med/surg content.

Psych, endocrine, genitourinary, cancer, reproduction issues appear to be the primary topics. More than enough, lol!!
