Yep, after my mom had surgery she was a little wobble and concerned with walking and the nurse told her that if she walking a little bit down the hall, she would get a back rub when they got back. My mom appreciated it b/c sitting all day in those ho...
I have that concern too. I want to them as clean as possible and don't know yet how in depth we are supposed to go. Also if were me on the on other side then I would feel some embarassment at having someone perform. I just don't want to cause any of...
Luckily my Prof. just let me know that we can use both laptops and voice recorders in class so I am happy about that. I don't use my laptop in class for anything else other than note taking. I have facebook account, but the thought has never crossed ...
Sitting in thru a class lecture (where at least for me you except some degree of quiet) is much different than being in the work place. Just because I prefer a quieter learning environment doesn't mean I am not capable of focusing in noise. In my j...
LOL, I am always stuck in a small classroom where someone clicks his pen non stop thru lecture or taps it against the desk. The clicking noise is twice as loud as the sound my keyboard makes. No one ever comments on his clicking, but it drives me up ...

Just an FYI, check with your school if they will accept a CPR course from anywhere other than the American Heart Association. I am going to a NS on LI and I found out at orientation that the Red Cross CPR course I had just taken could not be used. I ...
Maybe a little OT but if you are sick (flu, hacking cough etc.) Do they want you to show up for clinical's? I would have no problem doing so, but wonder about the risk of getting other patients sick.
I am not sure why some people make that big a deal about taking more than 2 sciences at once. I took 3 sciences (with labs) and a regular class and I thought it was fine. The labs were more time consuming in and out of class, but it wasn't "harder". ...
LOL....That is my one constant complaint.....Green is my least favorite color, I would looooove to have NYU's purp;e (my fav color). Best of luck to you in the fall!!!
From what I understood from orientation and from talking to 2nd year students it that they have to be worn on days we have lab. So monday's that have NUR108 Lecture followed by Lab I would have to wear it, on Thurs that I have NUR100 Lecture followed...

What is the difference in telling time b/t a sweeping had and one that second hand that ticks at each second? (Hope that makes sense) There must be some difference if they specify one over the other...just curioius!! Me
Thanks!! I have to keep my eye on the prize. My desire to be a nurse is far greater than the temporary uncomfortableness I may have to deal with. Sometimes you have to face your fears in order to succeed. Me
Yes to your beach question. I wear long sleeves and long pants the whole summer except for the beach where I wear shorts and a tee shirt, but never take it off. I honestly will have to keep from tearing up if a have to have a classmate do some of t...
Thanks for the info, I'd hoped it was a joke. I don't even think I've let my mom see my shoulders in the past 15 yrs!! I don't even take my shirt off at the beach!! I'm going to ask some of the girls in the nursing program exactly what they were ask...
Following your logic then no one here would come and ask any questions. How many questions do people ask in general about nursing schools and what and gpa etc. when it varies from program to program. Does every person get told that they shouldn't be ...

The best guide to use is still the NLN book and the CD it comes with for practice questions. The only thing I would do different would be to review my old Bio/Chem/A&P notes. I've read others on the site say that it is not that hard/bad a test,...

I think the test questions were simiilar, but the actually test was more difficult. I think the review of the science section is more of an overview rather than a review. I found that the question were more in depth then in the NLN book, and that it ...
