I got some good news! I received a call yesterday, and I got accepted into the program. To all who help me thank you very much!

it always depend on how motivated you are to study. anatomy is the study of the structures of body parts and their relationships to one another while the physiology is the study of the functions of the body. so, both classes work best because you can relate each class to one another. and, it will be easier for you to understand, but be prepared for this option because these are the class need to give more time to study and reading for it's all about memorization and understanding on the functions of the body. i will take micro with cna; still both are hard class, but if you give your effort you will get a high grade. i hope it will help you.

hahaha I didn't realize that I type it wrong, goodness.. It was really late at night when i typed that message. But anyway, Does my answer enough for me to pass? hahaha. Well great, I made you laugh.. Laughter is the best medicine in life.

I thought about this for a year of what should be the best answer to the question. I even came to the point of enforcing my self to watch the Discovery health or Fitness and health on TV, so that I can understand what an emergency setting is. And, reflects what were the SOP procedure I did learn everytime we have a new patient when I was still working as CNA. After reading all your post you all share to me here, I was able to confirmed my self that if you were to ask those question also, we're in the same boat in answering the question. Yes, I admit I might use some of the information to those who who were willing to answer my question, but it doesn't really mean that I will copy paste everything. Of course, I need to say it in my own words which the interviewer can understand my points of view. I guess, it's going to be pretty obvious if you copy the answer from someone else because you will not going to say it right or the answer doesn't make sense at all. I understand that asking questions to the head nurse, or co-workers is a way of teamwork because by asking to them it only means you are willing to know their opinions or ideas and willing to work with them in improving patient care.

Since, you reminded me that we are going to learn the First Aid Class before the nursing program start, I will perform the ABC procedure (Airway, Breathing, and Circulation) which is the correct protocol in performing first aid provided then I'm authorize to perform CPR when I'm alone or without the supervision of my instructor or stuff nurse. When I was still a nursing assistant employee, it always an SOP procedure that when we have a new patient we always ask an important information about the patient, same with, by asking to the police some information about the unconcious drunkard person, and perform some basic procedure like check for vital signs which we always do in the nursing home. This way, when there's available nurses or doctors at the emergency room already, I can provided to them the information they want before they can perform further patient care.

Honestly, I was not comfortable and even feel bad about the word "Cheating" because first, I never cheat just to get to the top or having a high score in class. I got my high grade because I struggle very hard, so I deserve it. Second, I always give my best effort to become the best nursing assistant and making sure that my patients who are assigned to me will have the best care, including by asking to my supervisor more about the patient or best way to give care to the patient. Right, I'm having hesitant to ask more questions here, because that might lead to cheating again. Anyway, Thank you Annaiya for the words of encouragement you share to me.

I'm sorry I didn't know that asking others opinion or ideas is considered to be cheating. I thought, its considered to be cheating when I asked while I'm having an interview. I repeat my self this was last year interview, and I have no idea what kind of questions they are going to asked to me again. My parents always remind me that if I don't understand or know what to do the patient, I should not hesitate to ask to the supervisor because it's all about patient's life not about me.

That was last year's interview, and it came out I wasn't accepted due to the fact that my points wasn't enough. I was very honest with my self when I was trying to answer the question. I didn't realize that being a nursing student is the same as CNA when it comes handling a patient. I did not explain my answer further, so i guess the interviewer didn't like my answer, besides I don't have enough points because that time I haven't completed my pre-req. Now, I completed my pre-req. and given the chance to be interview again. I now know what to expect for the interview. This is going to my references/guide that whatever situation they are going to throw to me during the interview I have to keep in mind that I'm only a student nurse, and not even allowed to give care; unless it's been supervise by teacher or the nurses on duty.

Hello Annaiya, thank you for the reply, it really helps me think what to do. I wish that time I knew the best answer. I came from the other country so I was not familiar with how it works here in the US.

Hello everyone, I am very desperate of seeking for help here who has experience in hospital setting. I am invited for a step 2 for admission for the nursing program. I was very lucky last year that I was invited for interview,despite the fact that I haven't completed my pre-requisite for nursing program. During the interview last year I really didn't anticipate the question they asked to me. It was a scenario questions that mostly happen in the hospital. Can anyone help me the best answer of these scenario? please please to all who nurse who experience this situation help me. Here's the scenario: A policeman came to the ER with a man whose very drunk and unconscious. Then, it so happen that I'm the only available person during time (whose still a nursing student doing some clinicals in the ER) So, the policeman decided to approach, and ask me to take care of the person. So, what are some steps do i need to do after the policeman give the information about the guy. I really don't know the answer to this scenario because I never been to a Hospital situation. please help me, thank you very much.
