  3. Am I cut out for nursing

    Huge Huge difference when its someone you love! Im so glad hes ok, but I would not take that as a sign that your not cut out for nursing. You had the right mind set to know when to get help and believe me, even though it seems like common sense, plen...
  4. moments

    I actually have a Psych rotation coming up for second semester, this is one clinical rotation that I knew I wanted to do since day one. The communication that you had used with your patient in your post, are very similar to the student exercises my i...
  5. moments

    What was some of your most humbling moments as a nurse, how did it change you as a person? I recently just finished up my first semester. My moments came not so much performing skills or missing something during an assessment, but mostly, communicati...

  13. Just another "no friends in nursing school" rant

    Most of the people I have clicked with was just from inviting them with me to practice skills in our free time. Its more of a relaxed environment and you really do connect on a level you dont typically connect with other people outside of school. You...
  14. Nerves, Nerves, nerves everywhere!

    I dont have to be loud, our teacher stands 2 feet away, and you hit on the nail with facial expressions. I thought maybe it was just her. Makes it that much more nerve racking
  15. Holy smokes! Does anyone have tips to calm the nerves during skills checkoffs? I practice, I understand the material and I actually do enjoy learning and applying the skills, but I have been in the first semester for almost two months (early, I know)...
