4. Can you take a blood pressure reading without a stethoscope?

   Lulu222 replied to matchsticktgt's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

   I've never heard of watching the needle..all I know is you can palpate for a systolic but you need to use a stethoscope for the diastolic. Nurses usually palpate for a systolic if they have no clue...

6. Need help with med-surg

   Lulu222 replied to sherriberry1's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

   So many people think I'm nuts, but honestly reading the textbook helps me sooo much. It may be time consuming and for some people it doesn't work but give it a shot because I can't tell you how many...

   Lulu222 replied to Finally my Time's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

   Go for it! It's never too early to get started, but don't go overboard. It's pretty basic. For NURS 200 just start to memorize your conversions. I could probably rummage up a few practice questions...

12. Drexel 4 year BSN CO-OP Fall 2010

    Lulu222 replied to Finally my Time's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I honestly have never heard of a two-year fast track program. I'm assuming it's a brand new thing because I know myself and a dozen other transfer students would have jumped on that opportunity in a...

    Lulu222 replied to Finally my Time's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing
