Sunnybrook hospital: emerge! help!

[melissax]

Hi nurses!

So I am in my 4th year of the BSCN program (BSN if you aren't from Canada) and I just found out that I am going to be in emergency/trauma at Sunnybrook Hospital in Toronto for my consolidation. They only accept 4-5 students per term! It is the largest trauma center in Canada and therefore I am terrified!!!!

I'm really excited as well, but I need some tips about emergency nursing. Does anyone have any tools they use? Tips? Common medication lists? I need any sort of help I can get!

Thanks!!!

LOL! Yes I know, I am starting such a program myself in Jan. I meant to ask: what school is this?

Sunnybrook has a trauma documentary show that is quite good, if painfully MD-centric. At least it would give you an idea of the facility and vague team dynamic. Congrats and good luck!

Thanks for all the comments :) !

What is the name of the show?

I'm studying through Laurentian University but I am allowed to leave my city to consolidate in my 8th semester because all classes are online. Woohoo!
