Gerontologic Nursing (Fall 2012)-NRSE 4560

Published

I will be tackling this class starting on August 27th.Anyone else enrolled?

Specializes in Med/Surg, Neuro, ICU, travel RN, Psych.
Same here, got docked for APA. I agree, the grading seems pretty harsh on APA but other than that, this class actually seems pretty easy. At least compared to the ones I've taken so far.

I agree there. After my summer courses that were not even nursing courses, this seems like a cake walk. I was losing my mind over the summer, lol.

Same here, summer was crazy so glad i got those classes out of the way. I did OK on the DB but lost a few points for the paper.

I haven't done it yet, but try looking on Amazon for the book. You can usually get the reference info from there.

I lost a couple of points for APA as well. I won't let that happen again, still got an A though. Getting ready to write Morrie paper, seems easy enough. I don't think this class is that bad, thank goodness!

I don't think we need references for week 3, just week 4 and 5 according to the rubric.

I'm kind of confused by these assignments. I've done my initial interview and I have no idea how I am going to be able to stretch the information from these interviews into 3 papers.... It seems like "general state of health, mental status, and bodily functions," is pretty similar to "overall impression".

Someone asked our TA about references and she said it was in the rubics. So I'm guessing that means we need them. So I put quotes explaining about the assessments tools and my patients function loss.

Ms ***** said in the QA we need them and it is in the rubric but I don't see that. I think 2 should work.
