I agree with callioter3, I will just add to make sure to document any "abnormal" interactions with the mother although she is not your primary patient.

we give diaper bags to our staff and they seem to last.

Home Care is a really rewarding nursing speciality. You get to see the impact you are having on your patients almost immediately, but I don't think it is a good fit for a new graduate looking to increase their skills. The type of patients that usually require home health have a wide range of acuity. Most of them are either at the lower end or at the upper end of the spectrum, with just a few in between. The ones at the lower end of the spectrum usually require just VS monitoring, while those at the upper end are not usually appropriate for home care and should be in a more acute setting. As a new grad, you will either spend your day taking VS or you will be putting your license at risk taking care of a patient with a higher level of acuity than what you are ready to handle. Jus my two cents Home Care- Caring- Compassionate Care In The Comfort of Your Home

Thanks NavyVet28

can someone please post the list of the required vaccines? I called the school and they will mail me the immunization form that was missing from my package, but I want to start working on them asap.

Hi everyone and congratulation to everyone that got admitted. I will be attending PVAM with you guys for the fall of 2011. Do you guys have a list of all required vaccines in your package? in mine it says on the acceptance latter that we should submit a completed immunization Record Form, but I do not have a form in my package.

Hi blackberries, thanks for your help. I just want to know what are their criteria of selection. I keep reading is on the first come-first serve basis, but im sure is more than that. There must be some type of GPA syst. Tell me what is your take on that. Also, what was your GPA if you don't mind. Im just a little bit anxious, I want it so bad.

Thanks prenursing9892, I will try to stay positive:)

Well I guess nothing will change today. I've been checking all day, and Im starting to give up:crying2:. nursing GPA= 3.5 , science= 4.0 and undergrad= 3.35. Hesi= 90 and CT= 840. Congratulation to the ones that got accepted.

HI everyone, I took the hesi A2 3 weeks ago and im rescheduled to retake it in a few days. In the math section, in some of the questions, they asked you to enter just the numerical value. Can someone pls explain to me what they actually mean by that. lets say for exple if my answer after calculation is a decimal number. thanks for your help.:)
