Med Surg

Published

Hello every1

I am taking med surg 1 fluid and electrolytes and the teacher did not explain anything she went over the first 2 pages and told us to review the rest of the chapter on our own and there will be a test monday. I am scared because i looked at the ch. and there is a lot of material there that i dont understand. The same with Nutrition the teacher talked about international foods and what is natural what does this have to do with this course or yet along the test. Please if you know of any sites that could help me please let me know. Platt school in dallas tx is so wondErFul:o

Oh wow, no lecture on fluids and electrolytes? What did the instructor do during lecture time?

Diet has plenty to do with electrolytes, you need to know the foods that contain the body's required electrolytes such as potassium, calcium and sodium.

I'd be in the dean's office complaining.

What on earth are you paying for at this college? If the college isn't giving you the education you expect then drop out and don't give them any more of your money.

It's called "adult learning"
