After browsing Reddit today, I came across something that troubled me deeply. This is not the first time I have seen something of this nature displayed. Once I seen an EMT with a VERY similar quote on a t-shirt. Being in nursing school has allowed me to open up and become compassionate about many things. Why would someone take humour in this situation?

Yes it is. :)

Congratulations on graduating! Sent a prayer up for ya! You got this! What resources did you use? I think I'm going to use uworld when I graduate next year.

Congrats on making it to end!! We have to take a specialty HESI after each semester. I use yourbestgrade.com for all of my HESI exams as well as Saunders and the red HESI book.

Saunders is literally the best content review book you can have! I would encourage any NS student to get before even starting clinicals.

I bought the red NLN PAX book that's actually made by the creators. I kid you not, 95% of everything in the book was on the exam. I scored a 123 and our school requires a 120. If I would have studied the book from cover to cover I would have gotten a higher number. The math is really what saved me. I hadn't even taken A&P 1/2 nor Microbiology.

I hope they are but if they don't I'll be prepared! Thanks again!

I'm not sure if it's in the actual class since I haven't taken it yet but Med surg 1 is only 8 weeks and we have to take a HESI afterwards. If we don't pass the HESI, we don't pass the course. So I have to kind of learn independently if I want to pass that thing. I had to do the same for the fundamentals HESI.

Yes our school allowed us to interact with patients but we had to get the information first and then go home and "google" yes "google" it before we could take care of the client. I really needed that "teaching for learning" confirmation! It really helps you retain so much information. Thank you!

Thank you for responding! Yes I have bought a pathophysiology book and that's the first thing I write on the note sheets I create. It's a shame that we don't have to take patho, I feel like every NS program should have that course. Plus our med surg class is only 8 weeks, so that's another reason why I started writing the disease processes and disorders that correlates with the systems we're going over. It makes things a heck of a lot easier. Thanks again!

Hello, I am currently taking pharmacology this summer. I decided to take it this summer because I didn't want to have it run concurrently with psych and med surg. How can I prepare for Med-Surg while in pharm? I've already started categorizing diseases and disorders using Saunders and Med Surg made incredibly easy alongside the medications.
