OCCC BADNAP Class of 2011

U.S.A. Oklahoma

Published

Hey,

I was just checking to see who all will be attending the OCCC BADNAP program starting this June. If you are, let me know~:)

Does anyone else still feel unprepared? We will have so much to do, but we do not have access to anything right now. It would be nice to get started on something besides reading. I don't have any Wilkinson Videos, so I can only see what I am supposed to do in pictures, not on video. Kinda sucks. I need a better source of visuals, ya know?

Anyone getting excited yet?

Hi there...Yes! I am getting very excited.... hoping I have everything I need and put together correctly. What all do we need to bring to lab on Monday? Feel like I am missing something or not doing something I should be doing. I believe our lab kits are in today or tomorrow??? so, need to pick that up. Have been reading through these posts for some good information. How did you set your notebook up (thought I read that?) :confused:

I have made a list for what to bring to lab, and clinicals, and this is what I have for lab: Uniform, white shoes and socks, lab coat (in case I get cold), lab kit, pen light, stethescope, clipcoard (in case I need to take notes standing up), name badge (not sure on this one), and to put my wedding ring on a necklace. I don't know for sure what we need, and we may not need all of this stuff every time, I am just trying to get organized.

As for the notebook, I bought a two inch binder, then filled it, and now I am on a three inch binder. I bought divider tabs with pockets. My first pocket is stuff to turn in (signed forms, etc, and I will see it as soon as I open the binder so I don't forget to turn in stuff). Also,the clear binder cover has my weekly calendars. I then have a divider tab for class notes, lab notes, the syllabus, other due assignment ino (group project, service learning, etc). I also have a tab for clinicals. I put my checklist sheet in a sheet protector so it can be removed quickly and keeps it in place and in good shape. I don't know for sure how else to organize. Once school begins, it may all change.

Any ideas from you? Have you started readings or other prep work?

I was reading through the syllabus and added a few more things to my lab and clinical checklists: Sharpie marker, bandage scissors, black pen, measuring tape (i have seen these used in some of my videos), watch with second hand, and stethescope holder (so it doesn't have to stay on my neck). I hope I don't forget anything. My lab starts on Tuesday. If you can, will you post a little about how your first lab went? Thanks.

Does anyone understand why there are ten sets of lab objectives but 6 lab classes?

I don't even know where to start with this reading. Any tips? I literally don't know where to start.

K Charles, I understand. I don't know which lab objectives go with each day. I emailed the teacher, and she said it would make more sense once classes begin. So, hopefully tomorrow we will have a more organized agenda. And, if you don't read I don't think it will be then end of the world. Think of how many of the previous students said they never read...they made it just fine. Don't worry. We will all be stressed and annoyed together.
