   SelenaS replied to Kimynurse's topic in General Students

   I always get new books, but I never get them throught the school. I always get them online. I search them by IBSN#'s and i ALWAYS check feedback. I will only buy from someone who has great feedback and many transactions. I saves me a fortune thou...

2. Low blood sugar, juice or D50?

   SelenaS replied to mappers's topic in Endocrine

   Surely, you cannot believe that most people die with a bs of 39. Having been a type 1 for almost 20 years, I can tell you that my sugar hits the 30s at least one a month, and I am still kicking. Guess I have hundreds of lives or perhaps great luck?

5. What shoes are you getting for clinicals?

   SelenaS posted a topic in Uniform/Gear

   I need to buy a pair of white shoes for clinicals and I am torn on whether to go for sneakers or nursing clogs. What did you/are you going to get and do you recommend them or would you pass on them in the future?

6. Patients that made you go "How are you even alive?!"

   SelenaS replied to Cuddleswithpuddles's topic in General Nursing

   I ask this out of pure curiosity, as I am a very brittle diabetic. In many threads, not necessarily this one, but many I have seen previously, it almost seems that people think our blood sugar bottoming out is our fault for one reason or the next. ...

   SelenaS posted a topic in General Students

   We are required to purchase a CRT (clinical resource tool) through our school. It is $550 and it comes downloaded with the required software. The paperwork never reveales what this device is. Anyone know what this device may be? I am thinking, at...

    A very good friend of mine, a nurse for 15+ years, bought me a Cardiology III in plum with my name engraved on it. It is awesome!

11. Should I take these classes together?

    SelenaS replied to studybeatofmyheart's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Sounds like you can do it, as long as there is no prereq that you need one before another. We needed Chem before going into Biology, but all schools are different.

12. HepB titer

    SelenaS replied to nbudo's topic in Pre-Nursing

    My school is the same as the above posters. I would call the school and see what they suggest.

13. "C" in A&P1 Can and should I take it again?

    SelenaS replied to raspysunny's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Just something to keep in mind, but if you get student loans they may not cover taking the class again since you passed.

14. I know a hospital school is a little different, so I have a question

    SelenaS posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

    I begin a diploma program through our local hospital in the fall. I have all prereq's needed, but they suggested we take A&P classes through them. Is it going to be terribly overwhelming taking Nursing and A&P at the same time?
