Hi, does anyone have a Newborn Assessment form that they would be willing to share with me? THanks!

{insert sounds of angels singing here!!} Today was exam 3 of 5, and I have officially survived our Maternity lectures and now move on {happily} to dysfunctions of the child, beginning with child w/cardiovascular alteration on Monday. Looking at the...

I have worked in a group home relief staff for the past 6 years {that I absolutely love} as a MHRT-1, and while talking to a friend last night she told me that once I passed my NCLEX she didn't think I would be able to continue to work in the home. A...

WEll, my apologies for your feelings that I was classifying maternity as a vagina, because that was NOT my attention, as I would never refer to any other studies as you described. I passed my exam, came home and realized we were done with our materna...

And thankfully we all have areas of care that we like. Actually Jolie, my expression was a 'joke' and nope, I didn't miss any aspects of reproductive care considering the past 8 weeks I have read well over 1500 pages regarding conception to postpartu...

does your school have its own library online? I used my online college library to find the journals that I needed for my research paper this semester.

I'm right with you. I was 40 hrs/week {in a Doctors office}, cut down to 30 in Sept and next week will begin 20 hrs/week {we work 10 hour days} related to increased stress, and the lack of time to study etc. My oldest son informed me this weekend tha...

{Hugs} to you. You won't forget to use an alcohol swab or to put gloves on your hands again will you? And that's what matters in my opinion, especially since this was your first hospital clinical day. The professor was with you and reminded you of yo...

I am desperately trying to finish up a tad bit over 300 pages of one unit today and want to rewrite the lecture notes that I took. I thought I had a lot of reading in 101, I am finding more reading in 201. I am thinking that I am ready for Thanksgiv...

walked onto the Med Surg unit this morning to find only one peer looking at me {15 total, but are schedules do not match up as we are doing Med Surg II, Peds, School Nurse and OB rotations this semester}. Found out that TWO more peers have left r/t p...

I wish she was in my class because I'd be asking the girl what her study skills are etc. Not sure what I would do with an A, I can't get above a B and it makes me crazy!!

raising both hands here. This is my fourth year, and I am as tired as you all are. I will be looking forward to the day when I can grab a book 'just to read'/'relax' with, and when my entire life isn't nursing school focused. Take care everyone!!

the ability to live with fatigue. :)

Hi, I am in my third semester also, and have found that my test results have gone up significantly. This semester everything seems to truly make sense to me. I joked to my husband last week that I {almost} feel smart this semester Of course I need t...

I'm with everyone who says they will wear whatever it takes to receive that pin, pink mumu--purple leopard print, I don't care! I am not sure what our class will vote, I have heard a number say they don't want to wear white etc. One of my classmates...

sherryberry, just wanted to let you know I am so sorry for you. Don't give up on your goal/dream, and best wishes!!

Last semester our Med Surg clinicals were pretty rough. We had to do complete care of 2-3 patients plus RN duties, and most of the time it was pretty difficult to get assistance from a CNA when needed. This semester we are doing Med Surg II and were ...

THank you for sharing the books, I just ordered them from Amazon. This is where I get confused. I was a CNA for 13 years, geriatrics. I was finally able to go back to school for Nursing and after 3 years on the waiting list I decided to switch to the...

Ohhh...ours wasn't that long, but I can't even begin to tell you the number of careplans/meds that I spent 4-6 hours working on to either get a call at 6pm from my Professor telling me my patient was d/c'd or go on the floor at 7a to find my patient ...

see some titles here: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_gw?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=straight+a%27s

I found last semester that the Straight A's series have really helped me and have brang my grades up hugely. I personally have a problem of getting too far in depth. Once I read the unit in my textbook I then read the appropriate pages in the Straigh...

Hi, I'm working on my first pediatric care plan, and my pt, 5 yo female takes a daily flintstone mvi. I need to know it's classification, action, major contraindication, major adv rxn, nursing implication, and client/family teaching. I looked up mvi ...

I continued typing in various searches and found this site, with my flintstone mvi Hope it helps someone else out! http://www.prescribingreference.com/

THank you so very much!! That is exactly what I was looking for.

Daytonite, thanks. I should've mentioned that, that is the first place I checked and the pediatric links are no longer available. I will search for VickyRN. Thanks.
