The best advice I can think of is keep practicing until you are comfortable. Try doing a head to toe assessment on someone at home or with another student. Give them a list and they can let you know at the end what you missed- this is probably bette...
Hi everyone, I know the wait is rough. Our deadline to apply was June 1 and we started getting letters July 18. Believe me, you will be really busy once you get accepted so try to enjoy the time you have now.. Good luck!
I have done that😄 if I hear someone say something really 'interesting' (misinformed) about nursing I'll think "ooo if you posted that thought up on allnurses, you might learn a thing or two". Edited because I hit reply too soon.
Another thing I did was write down everything that was due on a calendar (and keep it somewhere you can see easily). Cross off days as you go or keep a countdown until the end of the class. Sometimes it helps to see your progress if you get overwhe...
As the other replies said- there are a lot of disease processes. It was a lot of work but honestly I liked the clinicals more in med surg than fundamentals. I feel like I learned a lot. It was like the first semester classes all came together for ...
This- especially since you can evaluate him. Wouldn't the unprofessional comments he made (from the original post) be enough to have him written up or at least talked to?
To OP I'm sorry you have to deal with someone acting like that. I hope a meeting would help. This reminds me of something that happened -sorry if it's long. Last year at the beginning of my program, I was at work and heard a customer loudly pr...
I think it's great you handled that situation so well! Those women must be extremely unhappy in life to say such nasty things about someone who is having a good day with her baby. I don't post on here a lot lately - but what they did was just ...
Shoes- as long as they're white and not made out of material that fluids can sink through. I have Skechers go walks in white with no problem, they're really comfortable but they started getting dirty after a few months. As long as you keep those cl...
Hi everyone! I'm in term 2 so I thought I would come by and say good luck :) I know the wait is hard - I remember the day I got my packet getting through the last few hours of work before I could check the mail was rough haha. But once you get...
I saw there is a Taber dictionary phone app.. I guess it would be okay until we get the actual book As for the job thing.. I'm glad to know its doable with work and school together just takes more time management
Thank you! So does the schedule change a lot through the first semester? Or is it pretty much the same even when clinicals start.. I always heard that you shouldn't make your schedule outside of the program final because of last min changes
