  3. I hope someone can help me, IVPB intake calculation

    I calculated the 1st problem and did get 950ml. Usually the problem would state that via pb would halt primary but I guess not in this case. these are tricky!!!!
  4. Which topics in microbiology are the most useful in nursing?

    I think there are some important principles in micro, infection cycle for example but I wouldn't go and spend money on a textbook. If you want to skim some stuff online that would be enough. Your retaught what you need to know and it's not in any re...
  5. So Why Do You Do It?

    Being a student that article was inspiring, scary funny and brought tears to my eyes. Thank you for that! If everyone decided they won't deal with that kind of work than we wouldn't have any nurses. Someone has to do it!!!!! at least a little while.

  8. Nursing School = Divorce???

    I sometimes think that the s/o feels threatened by the independence and the financial freedom. Also that you are doing better for yourself. In all reality they need reasurance that it's a team effort and even though it seems your being self absorbed,...
  9. SHOES???

    nursemates or dansko. no sneakers
  10. What type of RN do you wanna be?

    I haven't had any nursing experiences yet so it's hard to say what type I would be intreseted in. If I had to answer it right now I would say I would like to hear more about critical care/ICU. Some day I would like to use my talents and be able to ...
  11. Hello, I'm seeking some guidance.

    That was alot of info in a short story:idea: . I would suggest taking one thing at a time, did you mention you have your GED or not? If not this is your first step-reseach and find out what your local college has to offer in prep classes. Take GED. ...
  12. starting before I start????

    I've always tried to be ahead of the game. It helps me to prepare the info and get a hold of what I need to study. Do you think that maybe this could hurt the student at the same time, just by hearing and reading all this info about calculations, car...

  15. starting before I start????

    I would just be careful with getting your cpr, child abuse and criminal checks( I don't know about fingerprints) but our admissions made us get up to date cpr so we would have it all through school.(I still had a year on mine and i still had to renew...

  17. Microbiology this summer

    I don't know your home situation(married or single) but you have a large load. Challenging classes and micro is like a mixture of chem, nutrition and physiology. I enjoyed it but then again i took it alone. Just try to learn what u have to and be d...
  18. starting before I start????

    Yeh your probably right, I'm am just so nervous about the whole thing. I would just make myself crazy:) Thanks
  19. Will I forget it all??

    They say that if these classes were taken within the last two years, you should be fine. While going through a review A&P class I realized how much I forgot. The good thing is when brought back up your brain triggers and your like ohhh yeahhh:yea...
  20. Help us answer this question!

    C is my answer.
  21. Are we a dime a dozen?

    They make it very hard to even be accepted into NS so it's more like only the strong survive and that doesn't matter what age you are. People like me with kids and spouses, houses and adult responsibilities have to work even harder to balance school ...
