I just read the threat from the girl that was worried about cutting up a cat for anatomy. I saw a few responses from people saying that they too had to dissect cats and that they just had to do it...yeada yeaha.
Well that just got me thinking. Our school uses humans for anatomy. A few of our corpuses are about thirty years old but we just got two new ones this year, which is exciting because my class is the first one two use them.
Does your nursing school use people that have passed and donated their bodies to science, or animals for anatomy? For those of you that use animals, how beneficial is it to cut up animals? I know we have most of the same basic anatomy, but after all, we are studying to be human nurses not vets...just wondering
