1. APA style guide necessary?

   blindcheeseit3 replied to dee789's topic in General Students

   I have been using it today for my paper. It has everything you need and it's only $20 on Amazon including shipping. When a paper is worth 20% and you have a paper every semester you want all the points you can get. And formatting is the easy part. Es...

2. Nursing Dx for pressure ulcer

   blindcheeseit3 replied to blindcheeseit3's topic in Student Assist

   Thank you! I have Nursing Diagnosis Handbook by Batty J. Ackley and Nursing Care Plans by Meg Gulanick. I looked up Impaired skin integrity but I don't think it fits that because the description says destruction of skin layers, and invasion and pre...

   This is my first care plan and I'm already stuck. The patient I'm assigned is 77 and on bedrest. On the care plan it says "risk for pressure ulcer" but that is not a nanda dx. And the only related dx I found in book are: -impaired skin integrity (wh...

4. Do I really need ebooks?

   blindcheeseit3 replied to blindcheeseit3's topic in General Students

   I guess it's not mandatory. It said "here are the books needed for the courses" I can always buy ebooks later and get them instantly. I can get them for the main study books. Not all 20 books on the list.

5. Do I really need ebooks?

   blindcheeseit3 replied to blindcheeseit3's topic in General Students

   Well I didn't even like ebooks for studying. I guess it would be easier to search for stuff but for reference books there's a glossary anyway. In guess I was more wondering when the school makes it sound mandatory if it really is. And for every singl...

7. Do I really need ebooks?

   blindcheeseit3 posted a topic in General Students

   I was given a tentative book list and told that I would need to buy a set from the school for a "discount" for $1,700, including ebooks. I think the ebooks are more for my help, but they make it seem like it's required. I don't really know a nice way...

8. What should I have engraved on my stethoscope?

   blindcheeseit3 replied to blindcheeseit3's topic in General Students

   Ok I bought it. I've had the one I wanted picked out for at least 6 months. I think the stethoscope is the most exciting thing I'm buying for school. Especially since it could be any style, not boring white like our uniform and shoes. WOO pink and ra...

   blindcheeseit3 replied to blindcheeseit3's topic in General Students

   Thanks for the reply's! I think I'll go with "heart peace sign first name last initial heart peace sign" I'm getting a pink one with a rainbow bell so I don't think it will get mixed up. Also, I don't really see why I would put it down and forget it ...
