8. Scared to death of doing a foley insertion.

   featherz17 replied to Koyaanisqatsi-RN's topic in General Students

   I started my first cath this past Tuesday during OB clinicals. The patient was about to have an emergency c-section and my professor grabbed me to go insert it. Talk about being nervous. Being a male and doing this to a woman is bad enough, but sh...

    Wow! Working 60 hrs/week and going to nursing school? I'd have went crazy after 1 week of that. As far as the multiple choice tests, the Saunders NCLEX review book and cd are what has helped me the most. It helped me pass the midcirricular HESI and...
