Who's taking it winter 2? Have you gotten your book? Are you buying or renting?

Also, if you have taken it, any advice? :D

Specializes in Correctional Nursing; MSN student.

Intervention was awful!!! Research...ugh. Haven't had that one yet.

Now they have combined Intervention and Assessment. Am I going to be sorry about taking the combined class?

Grades back for poem discussion...100% but only budged my percent average by .14%

Specializes in ED.
Honestly - so far this is the only class that I have had issues with and felt like I was swimming in the dark the majority of the time. Hasn't been my experience before this class and I hope it isn't my experience after.....crossing fingers and toes on that one!!!

This class is very doable for me. It is Research (or rather my TA), that is killing me. Intervention was my best grade...I finished with a 99%. I really liked that class, especially the teaching plan for kids hand washing.

So, did you like Interventions? Seems there are many who didn't.

LOL...I got a 95.2% in research and a 95.5% in intervention and still hated those class. But overall for me, Intervention was by far the most dreadful class. I always give pretty good reviews of the classes at the end, this one I BEGGED for them to revamp....

lol - seems we all have our own Kryptonite when it comes to these classes.

I personally really liked Interventions...

I'm incredibly jealous of all you - I've barely started my week 5 assignment.

On a completely unrelated topic, I thought Interventions was the least cr***y of the courses I've taken so far. While Ethics was the winner in the least favorite stakes, this is a very tight race and Gerontology is making a stretch run that may nip Interventions at the wire. The table is set for a photo-finish in this one.

On another unrelated topic, I vote road trip to visit rninme this summer. Been quite a while since I've had proper lobster roll.

I have not really started my week 5 assignment...I've started it in my head, but that's about as far as it has gotten. I've looked up some resources, and am formulating (in my head) my care plan.

Ethics, I didn't mind...only reason I did not get a higher percentage in that class was because of family health nursing. Family I found very very time consuming due to the family case study each week. I think I averaged 10 pages, typed, each week for my answers. Left very little time for ethics...but luckily it was an easy class that did not require the time commitment that family did...
