We call those "booty bags" lol we LOVE booty bags when it's a difficult pt to give a bath!

Hey, I also went through Micro as a single mom. It's a tough class and my instructor was extremely difficult. I would strongly recommend reading the chapters, making note cards to study during times like waiting to pick kids up or while at Burger Kin...

I am also a single parent. My children are 3 and 8. I work night shift at a trauma hospital in my area on the NTICU floor. I LOVE my job. The only thing about studying at work is, i do usually have time to get in a page or two, but not always. You ca...

ME TOO!!!! CONGRATS everyone for making it this far! I don't know about you guys but this has been an extremely long and hard road for me! I'm ready!

My first semester, I bought all of the above. Even the recommended books. Which several I never even had time to open. I would ask someone in a semester ahead of you which ones you actually need! I have saved many many students behind me lots of mone...

Hey everyone! I was wondering does anyone have a really good phyical assessment form or idea? At work I am fine doing my physical assessment but during clinical I guess I get a lil more nervous and seem to forget something every single time. My schoo...

Hey, I'm not sure about your county but I took my letter and my school schedule and explained to them I was in nursing school and if I miss even for jury duty I could face a failure. They let me out of it and said my name would go back on the list fo...

HEY! First of all I would like to say congrats for trying to do better for yourself and your children! I want to tell you, I am in the same situation! I am an RN student who is divorced with 2 kids and I work a full time job. IT CAN BE DONE! Don't ge...

HA HA HA oh the dreaded first bed bath!! I remember those days! My advice would to be... go in the room and introduce yourself like your not nervous at all... and trust me you will be so nervous your gloves will be soaked inside!!! My first one actu...

I am currently enrolled in the RN program at NWCC. I know quite a few people in the LPN program. What i have heard from them here and there is you take a short test and interview to get in. I am not 100% sure though. The number to the main campus is ...

Ok. Our school is a 2 year ADN program. The way it works is you test in and it's on a competitive level. There are certain classes you have to have prior to certain nursing classes BUT say for example I test in and make it my first semester in colle...

Yeah i am already in the program. Micro is a pre-req but it can be taken anytime until you can enter adv. med surg. which at my school is the final nursing class you can take. I was suppose to be going into my last semester Jan 10 but it looks like I...

Unfortunatly I took Micro this past semester and got a D. Now, I can not continue on to my last semester of nursing until I get a C, so this means next semester instead of finishing Nursing I will be back in Micro and can't finish nursing until Fall ...

At least you get to wear scrubs! Our clinical had to wear white UNIFORMS! No scrubs! I never realized there was a difference until I went to buy my first set! I would MUCH rather wear scrubs!!! I am also the biggest klutz I know. Well I spilled somet...
