Thank you!!!!

Hey there, so I took A&P 1 nearly 5 years ago and A&P 2 just last summer. I had to study really hard the bones and the muscles because that was my biggest weak point. I understand the heart well so I hardly studied it. You need to really look at what parts of A&P you know well and which you don't and create a study plan from that. Every HESI test is different, for the A&P section, I only had like 1 question about the kidney and the rest were muscles and bones. But my friend took it and had half the questions about the the pulmonary system. To be safe, study all of it and use online resources for pre-tests, they are SO helpful. Good luck, you got this!!

As I stated above...... IV, keep them warm, tetorifice shot, intubation. That's all I know.

I've covered first-degree, second-degree, and third-degree signs and treatment. My last powerpoint slide I want to put how third-degree burns are treated as a trauma situation in the ED. I want to list it how it would actually be done in a trauma situation like what I'd do first, second, third, etc.

It's a presentation for my Pathophysiology class.

Hi all, I'm doing a presentation on the different degrees of burns as well as the treatment given in the ED when a burn victim comes in. I was involved with the trauma team as a phlebotomist for a case like this nearly a year ago and just don't remember all the things we did. I remember giving the patient a tetorifice shot, starting an IV and pumping fluids and electrolytes, keeping the patient warm, etc. They also knocked the patient out with some kind of white/milky medicine they injected into an IV in the knee. After that, the patient was intubated even though he was talking just fine. I guess what I'm asking is clarification on why we did the things we did and what other things you do in your hospital. Thank you so much!

No way! There are a few students in this years nursing program at my college that are well over 40 years old. You got this!!

I passed my nursing entrance exam last Monday and have been provisionally admitted into the Nursing Program at my local college. I am so incredibly excited, it's all becoming real :) Any advice from first year nursing students? Best laptop to use? Tips/tricks? Thanks in advance!!
