  3. I Can Do It...I Know I Can

    You can do it... I am in nursing classes right now and I've been out of school for 20 years. It has taken longer because I have taken my time. But when I'm done, I'll have my degree, and skills I can use the rest of my life. I am not entirely sure ...
  4. Do you envy 1:1 sitters?

    The one time I had to sit as a CNA it was terrible, yet we were only allowed two hours at a time and someone else took two hours. It wouldnt be so bad if there were some care involved. But just sitting there is the absolute pits. b
  5. How did you react to your first code?

    The first time I was in on a code was as a CNA... I think the excitement felt is the "major adrenaline rush" that Christie wrote about. After everything calmed down I almost felt depressed by the event (our patient died). Now I am a sophomore RN...

  9. The Energy Booster Thread

    I hate to beat a dead horse, but the one thing that helps my energy level more than any other is to get moving. I joined a womens health club (very reasonable $ in my area), I go at 5:30 am before my day really starts, and it really does help. It's o...

  13. What is the hardest semester in nursing school

    So far my first semester was by far the hardest. I may have to get back to you after I graduate to have a broader perspective. Our instructor was ill our first semester, and we literally missed several key sections. We were constantly lost, and did...
  14. Any suggestions please

    Beanny, do you volunteer at a church? Sometimes some of these activities can be considered community service. Also, communty service hours are required of the nursing students at our school each semester. Some of us went down to the Senior Center...
  15. I'm Scared. Scared. Scared.
