Nurse, heal thyself
The instructor is ALWAYS right
Patients are people too
If in doubt, wash your hands is always a good answer
JHACO has nothing to do with Michael Jackson
Live, love, learn, work, collapse and wash your hands
Standard precautions are not something used to prevent pregnancy
1. Family members calling for info can wait, if you are busy taking care of pts.
2. Don't use gel ink pens.
3. Get a palm pilot.
4. Chart early, chart succinctly.
5. Get a pedometer and don't feel guilty about not "working out".
6. One code a day gets the heart rate up to the "target zone".
7. Always get lifting help... your back has to last you the rest of your career.
8. Trust but verify.
9. If you are overwhelmed... SAY SO! It's the only way you will get the help you need. 30-60 minutes is all the help you may need.
10. Nursing supervisors are there for a reason.

Help! We're trying to get a shirt put together for our class, and I'm in charge. We're probably going to do a top ten list, with the title being Nursing School Survival Rules...Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
