What is everyone's thoughts on the topic typed in the subject? I am doing a paper on it. And its gotten into a pretty big discussion. But I am curious to think what all other nursing students think -Could one exist with out the other? -Can they go ha...

I do agree as well- that there is alot of unfullfilled or ineffective coping in terms of religion and the medical world. I am using a quote from a book when I am addressing this issue. The issue- why some believe in faith along with or rather then me...

I agree with you all. That how can you have science with out religion, especially in the health field. I recently read a Gallup poll that I am refferring to in my paper, that stated that 47% of people would've liked their doctor to pray with them dur...

Hey just for some encouragement! Last year when I started to apply at LTC's, I had so many offers, and I had to narrow is down from 2 employers. And I had NO experience, but just the fact that you are in nursing school is a plus. :) So hang in there...

Ok. So this quarter one of the focuses in my Fundamentals class, is we have to do a presentation on nurse and patient education. My group thought of this topic: Long QT Syndrome. In small amount of words, its basically a long interval between the Q ...

Hey Whitney. Well, its one of those ever so fun nursing assignments, where they don't make things really black and white. D/t the fact that they want you to expand on your "critical thinking" skills. Yeah. Which I think is cool and all that. Basical...

Kellykul~ We did talk to the instructor. And he said that the topic is approved if we want to do it. But he does know that it will be tough. Of course, being competitive personality, I wanted to prove that I could do it. Which that kinda of attitude ...

Alyssa, I agree. After thinking through it. I realized that yeah we could probably do our presentation on Long QT Syndrome, but I think it would take alot of work. There is more research and info on QT then what I though there would be. But, after t...

Hey ya guys. I am in Pharmacology this quarter. And we are starting this week jsut pure memorization on the different drugs. Was wondering, is it woth spending $40 or more on getting already made Drug cards? I am will be making some anyways. And my ...

Stressgal- thanks I wil go check it out. Deann- Normally we don't use the regular size indexcards. My boyfriend had a huge stack of ones that were 5x7. And those seemed to work better then the smaller ones. And of course, my prof. only had us know t...

~ 12hour days between labs and lecture with only 1 hour break. ~Trying to not only find the time to schedule returns, but the time to practice. ~The fact that you study your butt off before a Pathophysiology lab, and then the next week realize that...

Hey all. I am in between semesters. I have been off since Sept 3rd, and go back on the 22nd. So my question: How many of you actually study during this time? I have kept my mind going on certain things that I struggled with in Assesment and other su...

Happy Birthday! Hope you have the best one yet!:balloons:

:) Not sure if I am too late to reply to this. I joined my SNO (Student Nurse Organization). Honestly, haven't reaped any benefits yet, except that when I graduate get the pics free. But, we are just required to attend 3 meetins,and volunteer in 1 fu...

One things I have learned- Take one day at a time.And don't feel too overwhelmed. :) I am just not finishing up my 1st quarter, and its been tough, but I have loved every moment of it. Even the stresses. Good Luck!

I had Micro last Spring. And my instructor was very very picky about the way we handled things. There was nothing adnormal that happend- which is good. But I agree with the above postings. But remember too, have fun in the class! I had a blast in Mi...

hey you guys! i haven't been on here in forever, i kinda missed it. =) anyways, do any of you have suggestions for a pocket guide about care plans. the one by doenges that goes along with my text i don't care for. i have already got rnotes, and diag...

Kristen, I am really considering getting a PDA now. So where did you go to get the software for such things downloaded? And is it cheaper or more expensive then buying the books themself? Just wondering, I have heard all different types of opinions a...

Is there a certain edition that you would recommend of Carperntino's pocket guide? I have found several on Ebay and Amazon, but I wanted to check with you about editions. Thanks again!:)

Chris at Lucas: Thanks for the reccomendation for pocket guide, I will look into it.

You know I never thought about the HIPPA and using the clipboard. My instructor hasn't said anything about. But, I do carry around my clinicals folder and i keep the folder clipped on the board, not unless I am filling out the papers. And with what b...

Definatly get the clipboard! I found out that when I went to my first clinicals, and I didn't have anything to write on! And what I brought, was typical assesment tools (Stethescope, Penlight,etc.) Your school should tell you though what to bring. Ye...

I am working at a large research hospital here in Ohio (university hospital), and they offer $9000 if you commit 2 years afterwards. Well, with my working and there, and knowing I want to work there after I get my RN, I took it. Cause, the rest of my...

Concerning OSU...I did 2 years of GEC work as well. Had a GPA of 3.4, and then didn't get into the program. Yeah, that was a let down. But now, am half way through my ADN, and since I had the usual GEC, it will only take me no more then 2 years to ge...
