NURS 4465 - Vulnerable Populations (starting 8/12/13)

Nursing Students Texas (UTA)

Published

Getting an early start on the support group thread for the August 4465 class.

I heard it's second only to Research in terms of horror level...though having just survived Research, I'm optimistic about this one--it can only be better than Research was.

Those two are definitely doable...the syllabus is online. Boston should be very interesting... I don't believe you really get the depth of vulnerable population if it done in the suburbs. I did mind on Baltimore city and I really enjoy it just wish I had more time. The syllabus is also online, good luck.

I live in a very small town. Fortunately, I work in a very large city so I guess I'll be doing most of my field work in there.

Hi-

I'll be in this class with you guys. Haven't taken Research yet, but everything has been reasonable since the Professional Nursing Class (First one). I was miserable trying to meet the demands of that class, or more accurately, the coach. I can handle time consuming, and all things considered, writing papers isn't all that bad. I work full time and usually take one 12 week course concurrently. So far that has worked well for me. I expect to finish the program by June.

So glad I discovered this site.

Hello everyone,

I will be taking this class as well. Not looking forward to it, but know that it has to get done. Last class before capstone. I am excited.

I'm getting really excited about this class! Well not the class it self, but this will be my last one before capstone, so I'm almost done. I applied for fall graduation today! I also registered for Capstone starting 9/23!

Taking Vulnerable with you :) WE CAN DO THIS!!

The class is open in Blackboard...at least it is for me.

Of course, my academic coach has yet to write me, so I can't submit the Attestation Form and thus do anything other than download the syllabus and update my calendar with the due dates.

Does anyone know what the quizzes are like in Holistic Care of the Older Adult? Are they timed? Do I need to really study the reading material, or can I just read it and take the quiz?

Holistic Care of the Older Adult is open and the coach emailed me so I have full access, however that is not the class that I was hoping to get a head start on, Vulnerable Populations is. I hope my coach doesn't wait until Sunday night to email me. I work Monday and Tuesday and won't be able to do much.

Got the email from my coach! Now I can get started, and the sooner I start the sooner I am done.

I am also taking vulnerable and holistic care of the adult! I haven't gotten my books yet! Whoops! It totally slipped my mind!

That's actually a blessing in disguise...I just got an e-mail 20 minutes ago from the lead AC telling us what the correct book is. Apparently what is on the syllabus and listed in the UTA bookstore isn't what we're using.

OMG, I have the wrong book. How could they **** that up. So I paid for a book I can't use, and will have to wait to get the book till at least the middle of the week.
