Pressure ulcer/Bedsore For whatever reason, the thought that anyone can get one makes me really uncomfortable. Esp. After a long day of class/studying and all I want to do is sleep. But, The last thing I heard in class was bedsores ughh!!..Thank God, I've never even seen it before, yet!

Apgar10--Thanks, for the feedback. Heavy isnt the word !! ahhh..

Ok...I found out last night in class what the textbook was; here is the title of the book & it's suppose to be the newest Med-Surg book, it's by a diffrent author...Brunner and Suddarth's Textbook of Medical Surgical Nursing by:Suzanne C. Smeltzer, Brenda G. Bare..Now, most people are upset because we have a book list and Ms. Iggy was the book they wanted us to buy. Now, first day of class the teachers want us to have this one."Because, the school is in transition." The good thing is for those who bought iggy already can keep it. Bad thing is some test questions might be based out of this "new" book. Anyone have reviews about this book?

lmao:yeah: There goes late night studying w/ dim lights on! Now, when I go to class and see a students book I am going to think about your post.

ThatGuy-- really? ahh..Great!!! Thanks for the heads up. Southerstudent-- IKR, but she keeps saying there is some new 2011 Med-Surg *shrugs* I am just going to order the 2010 and, be done w/ it.Thanks, as well.

^^Thank You! I'm a MA, that only attended school for 10 Months + 160 Of externship work..I personally don't think there's anything wrong with becoming a MA as stated above ."Diffrent Strokes For Diffrent Folks". Now, I'm currently a Nursing Student. I'm happy, I waited instead of jumping into this field to find out I don't like it. I've been in this program 4months today and I can't count the number of people who wasted a spot to find out they "couldn't handle it"etc....

You're all right, it will pay off & Thanks, for the replies

I am from MI, as well..I've relocated for nursing schooll but, my cousin currently went threw the same thing, she is starting at Baker too. Like, the poster said above it will pass =) Good Luck!!

now, that i'm in nursing school, after hearing so many things about how hard it is. it's not really as bad as everyone says. i can deal with not having a social life (parties) but, i don't know if i can deprive myself of sleep any longer. the work load,staying up until 3a.m. studying isn't working! i'm always tired(i need my beauty sleep, lol ) any advice, wisdom, suggestions would be appreciated. what's been your biggest challenge in nursing school? thanks =)

Lmao @ how you explained IAUPR..That's sad, Wow..so, This whole thing about not having teachers has been going on for awhile *smh*

This sound's like it will be me soon. WII Fit = My new BFF!

lol, Just the right words.I agree w/ everyone else..Maybe in the next lifetime my love or maybe, in the FUTURE if it's meant to be you'll see him again...OUTSIDE of work!
