Cota

As a student I just have to say it's very frustrating when the nurses are difficult. I can understand constant interruptions or unprofessional students disrupting your work but sometimes I just have to show up and the nurses are automatically in defense mode. I mean, at some point everyone started as a student.... just saying...

ohhh yeah i love that link but what im looking for is for some site or whatever where they have case scenarios so i can use that as my pt data I dont want to lie but I am bad at nursing diagnosis thats what keeps me from finishing in a decent time... I wish I had time to finish the real careplans at home but by the time I get there, I am exhausted. my instructor wants three patients head to toe with narrative notes and of those three two of them have to include pt data labs meds and nursing diagnosis next term its 4 patients FULL CARE PLANS so I have to step it up, I think if I just sit around doing practice ones it will help me manage my time at clinicals i just dont feel like making up a case study then making a careplan...I open that text book enough! OHHH about the cota thing well I know of at least 7 classmates who come on here My last name is cota and since there are like 3 elizabeths in my class, one ended up with liz, the other elizabeth....me.... cota:smokin: so I just put that as a just in case joke.. I'm a bit of a goofball but thanks for responding!

Does anyone know a website that has case studies or mock patient info (labs, dx, hx, etc..) I need to work on being faster at completing my care plans on time. I am going into my last term in a few weeks and i still struggle to get three patient care plans finished in a 12 hour clinical rotation. I like being out on the floor not at the desk but I have been paying for it because I have yet to complete a full care plan in one day:mad: if i work on them on my spare time or when I am making up hours at school I am hoping to be less over analystic and fly threw it at clinicals, any suggestions? ( and NO, this is NOT the COTA you all from my school think it is, it's another one:nono:)

Yeah, I got suckered into the private college because it was the only way to get in the program without waiting. I think its 30,000 but if I hadn't been so desperate I would have waited. My suggestion for anyone trying to get into a school is WAIT!:thankya:
