March 26 start

Nursing Students Ohio University

Published

Anyone else planning on starting the program on March 26? I just got off the phone with admissions and they have my transcripts. After my info as been through "two checkpoints," I'm supposed to receive a welcome packet in late February. I'm excited and nervous at the same time!

Specializes in Med/Surg.

No much at my facility and I've asked management about it too. So far all I have is that we'll be electronic by the end of this year. Might have to go off of what I know we are doing right now and just piece together the rest. Great! ahhh!

For our paper due on Sunday, where are you guys finding your health facility's plan for the EHR roll-out?

I am doing all sorts of procrastinating to not write this paper!

Thank you! I am so irritated at myself right now. Just saw my grades for the discussion boards for last week and due to my lack of attention to detail, I missed 2 points on each one because dumb$*@ me posted 2 replies total instead of 2 replied to each topic. Poop! I hate seeing my grade go down....gotta do well on these two papers!!

It's frustrating to have a mistake that you feel was so stupid. I did it last week. Just keep trying to remind yourself that it's our first class, and we are learning! Atleast it wasn't a massive mistake, and was one that you can easily bring your grade back up!

I had started doing the reading, and got some info from my work, but hadn't had a chance to start my paper yet. No biggie, I figured I have Thursday, Friday, Saturday off work, plenty of time to get it done. Woke up at 3 am this morning throwing up. I've been sick all day, as well as my husband. Really hoping I feel ok tomorrow. I have a chiropractor appointment at 9:15 I can NOT miss, as I cancelled last week due to not feeling well. a stomach flu at 6 months pregnant is no fun. I work Sunday, so I have to get this paper done by Saturday night.

I really want to double up for part B, but there isn't anything available that won't be combined with another course in the fall. I'm already registered for cultural diversity. I REALLY wanted to double up because I would be able to finish my december if I doubled up on all nursing courses from here on out.

And..I can't take any nursing courses in the summer because I'm taking business comm and stats through ou in addition to nutrition online at a local CC. It seems heavy, but I've taken heavier course loads in the past. Taking these courses for 8 weeks also beats taking them for an entire semester and dragging it out.

451 isn't too bad so far, I'm just getting TIRED of writing papers.

Thank you. Hoping it's just a 24 hour bug. I'm feeling a little better now, haven't thrown up in quite a while atleast.

I swore I wasn't going to leave anything until the last day after my huge mistake on Easter with my paper. I don't work until 3, so I'm ok with proof reading and submitting prior to work, but that is all.

Good luck, hopefully it will be quick writing!

OMG! The papers are killing me. I seriously hope there aren't as many papers in the rest of the nursing classes. I'd rather do quizzes all day long! This paper was torture and apparently I am way to verbose to keep my page length in check.

I couldn't find anything to double up on for part B once I decided to. I am doubling up for Summer 1 with a 10 week class and a 5 week class. Then one class for Summer 2. For 2 weeks I'll have 3 classes. Probably not the smartest thing considering I am transitioning to full time but I have 5 gen eds. I just want to get done!!

I keep my papers short,simple and to the point so I have a hard time meeting the page requirement. I would rather do a quiz too than to write a paper any day. Why say something in ten sentences that can be well stated in two?

I have decided to take the summer off and spend it with my kids then restart in the fall. They are only little once and I want to spend it stress free with them.

One more week:sleep: On the one hand, I think it's been really hard, but on the other it's not been as bad as I was afraid it would be.

I finished mine tonight, although I am waiting until morning for a final proof read and submitting it before I go to work at 3pm.

I turned my paper in 12 AM on the dot! I hope that's not too late! But on the Epic page it said the assignment was due 12:59 AM! I don't know what to believe!
