1. How can I get along with my preceptor as a neurodivergent student?

   Ksan replied to Ksan's topic in Student Assist

   IDK if they do, I'm from North America. I'm confused at your advice though because in one post you said "drop the chip off your shoulder and don't underestimate people" but in the next you said that I do need to learn to small talk differently s...

2. How can I get along with my preceptor as a neurodivergent student?

   Ksan replied to Ksan's topic in Student Assist

   I never said I didn't like small talk, just that my version might involve sharing fun facts, which many people appreciate but those who don't like it *hate* it. I've never had any issues with patients and I went into nursing because the patients I vo...

   Ksan replied to Ksan's topic in Student Assist

   This was just advice I picked up from tiktok and a couple of threads on here about how to get along with preceptors and/or nursing profs. As soon as I implemented my interactions with my current preceptor got WAY better so it clearly worked 🙃

4. How can I get along with my preceptor as a neurodivergent student?

   Ksan replied to Ksan's topic in Student Assist

   @nursetassie Thank you so much! If I could bother you with another question, when a preceptor and/or staff you're shadowing ask you something like "what did you think of..." what are they asking? Like what kind of thoughts are they looking for? ...

5. How can I get along with my preceptor as a neurodivergent student?

   Ksan posted a topic in Student Assist

   I noticed that I struggle a lot with making and maintaining a good impression with some clinical instructors and preceptors. So far, my best clinical instructor has been one that suspects she might have autism, and our personalities and communication...

   Ksan replied to Bevbev's topic in CA Programs

   Awesome! Thanks!! I was asking because I have some scars on one arm so I'm more comfortable with covering it up in front of people until I get to know them ? I find the long-sleeved tops from the AIRism line at uniqlo are great, even in hotter weathe...

8. NP Wikipedia Article

   Ksan replied to Riburn3's topic in NP

   Additionally to what has already been mentioned, the NP page is extremely skewed towards the NP role & education/licensing in the US. Anyone can edit Wikipedia and it is generally self-correcting, in the sense that when someone inserts some sort ...

   For those currently at UofT, what is the dress code policy for clinicals? I would like to know if we are permitted to wear long-sleeved tops under our scrubs or a jacket over to cover the arms. I wasn't able to find an answer on their website. Thank ...

    Ksan replied to Bevbev's topic in CA Programs

    I got an email just this morning that I got in to UofT!!! I'm so, so happy! I was worried because my GPA was only 3.7/4 and I had a B- in my statistics prerequisite :S I was also concerned about how they would react to the fact that I took a reduced...

    Ksan replied to Bevbev's topic in CA Programs

    If you used the internal application I was told they receive it automatically and not to bother sending a transcript in. However, if you are taking their continuing education course as a prerequisite, then you do need to send the transcript from that...

    Thank you! Out of curiosity, what was your second choice?

    Ksan replied to Bevbev's topic in CA Programs

    I put Psychology as a second choice so that I had an option if I didn't get in to nursing right away (nursing is still my end goal). When I applied to my first undergrad though you were allowed a third choice as some schools and they only considered ...
