   A Question to Nurses and Nursing Students.. HELP ME!

   jpmbsm replied to Hannah1991's topic in Nursing

   If it is truly something you want to do then you will find a way to make it happen. My suggestion is to visit a hospital or if you know someone who works in a hospital and ask if you can observe a surgery or observe in the ER or something like that. Maybe even find a dialysis facility that you could observe in now. I know the hospital that I work at takes senior high students all the time to let them get exposure to areas that they are interested in and help them with the decision process. Hope this helps and good luck with what you persue!!

   Confused about schools - which route to take?

   jpmbsm replied to Adam22's topic in Nursing

   I'm with Shelby P. Go to an accelerated nursing program. You get into this because you already have a degree. Then when you graduate take your NCLEX exam. This is an exam to get your RN License. Then apply for a master's program. Hope it works out for you for the best, good luck.

   I don't think it is that big of deal as long as the physician didn't touch the end that touched the patient. That happens a lot in trauma, and I have seen it happen in the different hospitals that I travel to. As long as the sponge stays sterile shouldn't matter. Hope this helps with your anxiety. Have a good day!
