thank you all for your thoughts and honesty :-) its nice to hear the variety of things everyone thinks - i appreciate it! i wanted to ask some of you another question. i have found that in clinicals and even now in my job as an LNA, some LNAs and nurses treat me differently when i say that i am going to nursing school... its kind of hard to explain. most of the nurses are friendlier while some of the LNA's act like they resent me for it or something. I have talked with some of my other LNA friends who have found similiar things. have any of you seen this/heard of this? also i was wondering if any of you had a pocket book that you swear by. i am looking for one for work and for school. thanks a bunchhh :-)

I am 2 years down and 2 to go in my nursing school, and I am an LNA in LTC and a cardiac medical hospital setting. I was just wondering if there was anything you wish you were told/wish you did in nursing school or when you got out that you didnt realize at the time. anything advice would be great:D

I have ECG Notes by Davis, the one that fits in your pocket. Do you know of any other books? Thank you both, I will check that website out

Hello everyone, I recently got a job on a CMU and I am learning how to do ECG's. I read this statement about them and I'm a little confused by it, can someone please explain it? To obtain a 12 lead ECG, four wires are attached to each limb and six wires are attached at different locations on the chest. The total of ten wires provides 12 views (12 leads) I just dont understand how ten wires allows for 12 views. Any advice? Thank you!
