I have to say that I think it is ok as long as nothing inappropriate is going on! I do understand the concern over the non-patient possibly falling out of the bed & getting hurt & the hospital being held responsible. But sometimes a patient j...
I am in my second semester of nursing school (ASN) & that was one of the first things they taught us at the start of the semester. Both how to start an IV and how to do venipuncture. I haven't had the chance in clinical's to draw blood but I have...
Not sure if I am posting this in the right place! I am in my second semester of nursing school in a ADN program. We had our finals this week & I failed by 1 point so I am out of the program unless I can go to remediation they offer. I have had 2 ...
HI, So I am in my second semester at Jeff State & today I took my pediatrics final. I needed an 80 on the final to pass the class with a 75 (bad I know). I made a 77 so my over all final grade is a 74 . Our med-surg final is tomorrow & I need...
I am in my second semester so we are just now able to start IV's. I have only been able to start 2 & it went so much smoother than I thought it would. I hope it continues to go smoothly, cause now I see veins every where that I could start an IV ...

All teachers test questions are going to be different but I think the topics covered are the same at each campus. It can't hurt, it can only add to your knowledge!

LOL @ Jessangel!! Yes it was very foreign to me at one time, still is some days!! The quiz they gave us @ orientation was just a practice take home "quiz" it didn't have to be turned in, it was just for us to practice on our own.

The JSSN 2010 site is just typed notes, no audio! I am at the shelby campus & we are told every semester that we can not record lectures. Did they give you a practice math quiz @ orientation? Know how to convert temp from C-F, know how to convert...

Nursing school at Jeff State is a beast!!! Before you start 1st semester you NEED to start practicing dosage calculations, you will have a dosage calculations test very soon after classes start & you have to make 90%. You will have 3 chances to p...
