It's almost time...

I've never heard of a class going that far. We did practice putting each other on a bedside commode from the bed, but that is fully clothed!!!!! I don't think you have anything to worry about.

Good luck to you!

I'm going to take the wild guess that they have a real bathroom because one of the hardest skills in transferring an assist of two to the toilet in a tiny bathroom that you can barely fit two people standing in let alone three people and wheelchair.

I start classes on the 22nd. I'm SO excited! I ordered my scrubs last night, and I have to go shoe-shopping this weekend. I also need to get 2 TB tests done (why 2? I mean, hello? Do I sound consumptive?!) and dig out my immunization records.. I feel like I have SO much to do in so little time. But I'm really excited.

I met with the head of the nursing department at the school I'm training at last night, and she gave us a tour of the lab and stuff. We have this really awesome computerized dummy that apparently does everything short of make dinner. I'm tickled that I'll get to play with him soon.

I do have a concern.. I don't know if you'd even CALL it a concern.. but she said we'll be practicing skills on each other, which is obviously fine and all.. but she even made a mention that it's a REAL bathroom in the classroom.. uhmm.. am I going to have to get toileted or something by another student? :uhoh21: I don't remember signing up for taking MY clothes off. I know, I sound ridiculous, but it's just a weird concern.

Anyway, WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! :yeah:

Congrats!! My very first class starts in 4 hours and 15 minutes.... I'm excited and nervous all at the same time. Good Luck and hope all goes well
