Ok ladies, I need some advice. Has anyone out there had to deal with Kanora much up at ECC? I'm having a very frustrating issue with her, and I don't even start classes until Tuesday. Would she be...
Cheno - I had endometriosis for years (since I was a teenager). We thought that was a big cause of my infertility. The only thing that helped it was having a baby, as they say the stretching helps...
My grandmother who has a cold aglutin autoimmune hemolytic anemia (along with a stable lymphoma) gets blood transfusions at least once a year. 8 days before Christmas, she went to the day surgery...
It can live for quite a while. My husband got a hospital acquired MRSA while having a nasal/sinus surgery. It takes great diligence to keep a home environment clean with an MRSA patient in the...
You'd think the could post it on e-campus, or e-mail, or something - heck they even had phone trees way back when (that way they'd only have to call one person!). Get out of the dark ages...
It's just a pain in the a$$ to go up there for there to be nothing on the board....It's a haul! If anyone goes up there, copy the board down and post it on here so all can share in the fun...lol....
I'm not a nurse yet (I start school next week), but I spent 11 years in Veterinary Medicine and stuck myself more times than I could possibly count. We also don't use gloves like in human nursing, so...
You are correct - any variable with no number in front of it is considered a "1". The hardest thing to remember it seems is to work parentheses from the inside out and use the distributive property...
I'm chunky anyways, so I've learned to live with looking fat...lol. I was just thinking it might be easier than trying to keep up with everything in my hands...and, when I worked in veterinary, I...
I'm excited, but I'm trying to decide if I want one of those little fanny pack type things that you can carry your scissors, pens, etc. in. Anybody use those in clinicals or see many nurses on the...
It is an algebra problem, but order of operations is your first order of business. Just remember to take it one step at a time and don't try to do too many parts in one step. Good luck!
Hey Jaxia - I use a rolling backpack, but I carry my laptop. I got mine at the Sampsonite store and love it - I had another one before it, but it didn't hold up as well. With the books on the...
I teach A & P from this book & truly like it. I do have an extra lab manual (fetal pig version) 8th edition. If you'd be interested in buying it, please PM me and we can work something out....

When you click on any of the options, it says you have to enter the "Access Key". Maybe it's just a 1st semester thing?? I just want to get into it!! I want to see what's there. It's like staring...

Hey guys -- they finally have our courses loaded onto e-campus (1st semester). When and where do we get the code to enter into it so we can see everything? I just want to take a peek! Thanks!
Jaxia, Go to e-campus!! that's what the $70 is for I guess. It requires a cartridge access number something or other. I wonder when we get this?? One step closer!! I do have someone that will do...

I don't do well with the snap ones -- I seem to be "accident prone" somehow and they come unsnapped...not a good thing. I like the extra pockets on the one without the snaps. I have a friend who...

That would be nice. I've had alot of time on my hands the last 3-4 months, and have spent alot of time at my daughter's school. She is very upset that I won't be doing that anymore. I'm hoping the...

So 1st semester you have 2 clinical days, and in other semesters, you have 1 clinical day? I'm just trying to plan here..lol. How long is skills lab usually (# of hours)? My daughter is not pleased...

I don't have an instructor listed either. They told us it would be posted with the schedule outside the lab...maybe they don't know either??? I just want to know where and when to go Tuesday, and...
