Hairy legs........OH NO!!!!

Nice quote! Thank you. I have information from my book. I just am not the creative type. Unfortunately my instructor wants a physical object, not just us singing or interacting with the client, which I agree is the best play. :)

I always have dreams about being late to clinical, which in turn makes me wake up at 3 am and not being able to go back to sleep and having to be at the hospital at 6 am! I'm in 3rd semester of 4 and still having them, so not sure if it will ever end. :)

Hello! Third semester nursing student here. Working on my 5 weeks peds class and we have to do a play project. My client is a 3 month old. I know this age range is the trust vs. mistrust but I'm not sure how to incorporate play into that. I was thinking of maybe doing a sensory board or sensory bag! In your opinion do you think either of those would be too old for the client. It also has to be 15 minutes of play time. That seems like a lot for one or two things for a 3 month old. Any help is appreciated.

I sell thirty-one which is bags and totes and purses and I carried a bag called organizing utility tote. It had five pockets outside and fit my book and binder perfectly. I even got it to match my school colors and we offer personalization so mine said nursing stuff. Let me know if you want me to post a pic. It was durable and cute.

My rn program started with 80 and going into second semester with 47!! :-/

Relax and enjoy free time. I was the same way at the start of my first semester. You will have deadlines, etc in due time. Enjoy your freedom now. :-)

I gave a 6 month notice. I was in accounting/payroll for a big realty company. I had to train someone else for my job that's why I gave such a big notice. Good luck.

I'm using the ARC notebooks only at staples. They are pretty cool. You can take pages out and move to different sections if you need to.

I'm nervous about it as well. We do have tons of practice in lab however aren't allowed to do IVs until we graduate so no practice on humans until we are in the real world. That is scary to me. Lol.

What's the app please

What's the iPhone app please?

We pre assess the night before. We have to have our drug cards with us on clinical day and I just take my lab diagnostic book and my nursing diagnosis book. They are small pocket size so that's all I take. We have 12 hour clinicals so I really don't have time to research book. I guess that's why we pre assess the day before so we are prepared.

Ebooks came with our "box" of books. However I find them hard to navigate. I'm a visual, hands on learner and not having pics and boxes to see (ebook version) throws me off. Now I hated carrying those 2000 page books around as well soooooo hold your hats, I unbinded my text books. Each chapter is in its own sheet protector and I take the one out for the module we are working on. I love it however I was nervous taking apart my book but I did!! Lol.

Thank you for posting this. I am in the same boat and am super discouraged. Your post makes sense to me and I wanted to thank you. Any other tips you have would be awesome. Thanks.
