Many hospital systems have buildings in Dallas and in the Plano area, too. Like, Baylor, Presby, Medical City. Have you called them? I am sure you will find something in Plano or Frisco. It seems that...
Hey, we all did good. I thought that this test would be an easy one. I am glad that you noticed the grammar, too. I thought that my English was bad today. :uhoh21: I hope we all get 6 extra points...
Do your classmates know that your are also teaching? By the way, are you going to teach while being in the nursing program? It must be fun to be both side of the table. :monkeydance:
I have my trach seminar in March. Do you still have to fill out a complete mini careplan? My sweet instructor lets us only do the cover, meds and patho sheets. :balloons:

There are a lot to do in 2nd semester. You have to keep up with your schedule. I agree that there are too much paperwork there. Also it's hard to find time to practice skills. By the way, IV check off...
It's great that you are doing sterile dressing changes. I am so behind with my skills in clinical. Last week I picked a pt with diabetes so I could give her a lot of insulin shots. It turned out that...
You can ask both. How many times today and if it is a normal pattern for the pt. Then ask everything else that Funny described. (It also depends on your instructor. Some of them have specific...
