Mine are at Memorial. Let me know how your first day goes!

The patient I was putting the foley in was moaning in pain from a surgery and tears were falling every time I touched her leg to position it. I think that is what overwhelmed me so much. The IV patient had very little feeling in the arm I was putting...

Hello everyone I just had to share with you guys my clinical day this week. I put in my first foley and my first IV on real people. I was so nervous I was shaking and I almost started crying. It is kinda funny how nervous I was looking back on it. Wh...

I could not have said it better. Simulations for Tue. is coming far to soon. I feel like my brain is so full of information that it will soon come leaking through my ears. I am so exhausted.

I'm guess I am weird too I also like the math part. I finished the dosage calc today and am pleasantly surprised how well it went.

In our book Subcut stands for subcutaneous, but in our Dosage independent study I see SQ. I think they are using SQ as the abbreviation for subcutaneous in our study guide am I right?

i'm behind also. i just did the first one and thought the same thing about both of those answers.

Mine came with batteries already in it. Three AAA batteries included.

I am trying to organize myself and I have a question for all of you already in the program or any of you starting with me that may know. Is Dosage Calc and IV calc taught in our Nursing Techniques class? Is Medical Terminology taught in our Nursing ...

melanie. this is awful news. you are such a wonderful woman with a lot of drive. just know that it is never the final say. i know you will make it happen if not this semester than next.

Hey I just got home from getting all my books and I think I missed one. What does the front cover of the Laboratory & Diagnostic Tests with Nursing Implications look like? I am going to hate to have to drive out to North campus again for one book...

I just saw that and am feeling even more pressure now. I am starting to feel more nervous and unprepared the closer day one is. We just have to keep telling ourselves that we can and will get through these 4 semesters. I am picking up my box with the...

So I am starting to freak out about having no life for 4 semesters. I need to get outside as much as possible for the next two weeks before I am stuck inside studying. I have planned a trip to the Jax Beach pier for fishing, a reggae sunday at the co...

Did you guys that looked at your blackboard community info pay for your classes already? When I click on any of the document info to try and print it, it gives me a message that says Access to the specified resource () has been forbidden. Any one el...

Congrats! I live off st. johns Bluff so we are not to far away from each other. I'm so happy for you that you are in!

whew! i'm glad that is over. that 10 min to pick a schedule was soooooo stressful i wish we would have had more time. i am not one that makes rash decisions like that. i'm in session 1, is anyone else in 1 or 2? i had to go back to work so i don't k...

I'm all for the green dot sticker on our shirt. I don't have a black shirt that I could wear.

I second did we decide to do anything that distinguishes all nurses because I really want to meet all of you. I am excited to meet some new friends going in the same direction as I am. My sister graduated from FCCJ RN program four years ago and works...

Your parents would have to make less than $25hr combined for you to qualify. So if they make ore than that I don't think worksource will be an option for you. But, congrats on the bright future, mine expired because it has been so long since I gradua...

I sure it is not a surprise considering my All nurses name that my name is Amber. I can't wait to meet you all very soon.:)

I got my uniform today and they look pretty cute. I got the elastic band pants and they fit kind of weird but I guess they are scrubs. I like the little zipper on the top. It is all becoming real, YEAH!

I got lasik about eight months ago and it was the best thing I have ever done for myself. You are going to love it. Are you getting traditional lasik or PRK? My doctor said I could wear make-up after 2 days just not eye make-up for at least a week. W...

I was planning on wearing white jeans and a grey and white top. I want to just wear dark jeans but I thought might be a little to undressy to meet these higher up people in the nursing department. What do you think? Jeans with a nice top ok? I would ...

These are going to be the longest eight days of my life. I just hope that in eight days at orientation we also get our schedules, I really need to plan my work schedule. I am hoping more of the classes will be hybrid because of the new nursing direct...

My chemistry teacher used it in his in classroom class. I took it online. The way he explained it was by the students using it during lectures the teachers recording the students responses and it made it more interactive for the student. I don't kno...
