1. Which is harder - A&P I or A&P II?

   Absolutely13 replied to Lovelymo79's topic in General Students

   Dang! I wasn't going to say anything, but I took A&P II in 5 1/2 weeks. I got the usual "A", but I'm telling you nursing school is different. I get "B 's" now and I'm working harder than I ever did. Study hard!

   Welcome to the jungle! :) Flash cards, coffee and quiet are your friends.

   No heavy chem! And that was only if your experience was limited like my own. Good luck and I know you will succeed!

   Absolutely13 replied to rplf29's topic in General Students

   I did the same thing just to see what I was getting into. As a matter of fact, that's how I found allnurses.com. If you're really motivated and want something to do, get a book on introduction to chemistry (if that's an area you don't have much exper...

   Absolutely13 replied to rplf29's topic in General Students

   The most important thing about A&P? I would have to say learn it well and give it your all, because there isn't enough time in nursing school for more than a quick refresher when tackling the copious reading. They assume you know it and you'll ha...

6. Fake Swine Flu vaccine and medication warning

   Absolutely13 posted a topic in COVID

   May 1, 7:26 PM It didn't take long for scam artists to start cashing in on the Swine Flu craziness. Today the federal government released the alert below warning there's NO vaccine, cure or medication for the virus and if someone tries to sell you ...

7. Which is harder - A&P I or A&P II?

   Absolutely13 replied to Lovelymo79's topic in General Students

   A&P II seemed easier, but I think that's because learning how to study for A&P was a constantly evolving process in A&P I. I finally found an efficient and effective way to do it by the end of the term - and carried that into A&P II.

8. WHO raises swine flu pandemic alert to phase 5

   Absolutely13 replied to indigo girl's topic in COVID

   No vaccine has been developed yet and it appears to have spread to new locations by travel. Mutated strains are a big concern too.

   Absolutely13 replied to indigo girl's topic in COVID

   I can see how that read and apologize for my apparent lack of compassion. Triage nurses will be challenged to identify acuity if they are inundated. The potential problems worry me.

    Hello fellow nursing students! We had an assignment for fluids & electrolytes and I drew hypermagnesemia - I know, vanilla. Anyhow, I just got the grade back............100% from this presentation. [YOUTUBE] [/YOUTUBE]

14. Bedbaths and Bedmaking

    Absolutely13 replied to Ginger's Mom's topic in General Students

    Our first clinical rotation was LTC and the skills labs were focused on basic client care at that time, so we did a lot of baths, ADL assistance and bedmaking then. I haven't done much of that since. 0630-1330 is like most of the others for me, alth...

15. Students that cheat

    Absolutely13 replied to NewNurseAlert's topic in General Students

    This isn't advice, but an example of another way of looking at it. Have I turned in a cheater? Yes, in a heartbeat. Why? Because I don't want them in the same pyxis as me. They've demonstrated they are more than capable of being deceitful. This only ...
