VVCN2012

Hi, Im in NP1, first semester of nursing. Today we had an exercise about getting report at the beginning of shift. Basically a student was given a list of things to pass on to another students including vitals, labs, pts info, etc. They timed us a...

I am starting nursing process 1 on Monday and my first clinical day will be on Saturday:yeah: Our school requires all white shoes, which were hard to find since most have some kind of logo in color. I was glad to find the sketchers in all white so I...

Yeah, I thought about doing this too with my fundamentals book, but there is just so much pride to owning this book or any other books for that matter (to me anyway) the thought of doing this to a book makes me sad:( It's like, looking at a flower an...

It will most stressful, definetly. I've been sick the last couple of days and my husband swears is stress/anxiety related to starting school on Monday. I think he might be on to something. I need to buy vitamins and airborne, I cannot afford to ge...

Thank you so much for your response. Sorry I took forever to respond=( I am now taking Developmental Psych, and will apply this coming Spring to Nursing. The wait will be long, but worth it=)
