    Suggestions for supplies :)

    Clovery replied to JulieVN:)'s topic in General Students

    something stupid I did that is supply-related... we have to write up med cards for clinical. I can't stand writing very much so my instructor said it was okay to type the info and glue it to index...

    Where do you sit in lecture

    Clovery replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Students

    Other people get to class insanely early so I'm usually stuck sitting where ever there's a spot. Next semester I guess I will have to plan on being there 30 minutes early if I want to have choice of...

    case study help!

    Clovery replied to vague111's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I think a big priority would be teaching to prevent recurrence of DKA since it's life-threatening. Sorry don't really have time to post more or thoroughly read your post over. I might take another...

    How much per semester did you nursing school cost?

    Clovery replied to 5860TomCat's topic in General Nursing

    I'm in an ADN program and it's about $1500 per semester, including books. That's x4 semesters, assuming you have all the prereqs done. The school charges about $120 per credit including general fees,...

    What's your nursing kryptonite?

    Clovery replied to ktliz's topic in General Nursing

    I'm still a student but I have to say that so far my weakness is definitely poo. I even gag while changing my own baby's diaper. If it's just a little or a formed turd, I'm fine. But if it's soft and...

    writing papers during school?

    Clovery replied to aachavez's topic in General Students

    I'm in an ADN program and we have to write 2-3 papers per semester. They're not required to be long, about 2 - 5 pages, and we only need two references from nursing journals. So it's not too bad. I...

    antique peds nursing text

    Clovery posted a topic in General Students

    Someone gave me a pediatric nursing textbook that was published in 1925. I'm doing my peds rotation now and it's amazing how much things have changed! I was flipping through it tonight and came across...

    Trouble in Clinical groups

    Clovery replied to student89's topic in General Students

    I don't think we're talking about any "official" portion of the patient's paper chart. If the student was taking those, the nurses definitely would have noticed... I'm assuming it's the patient care...

    Trouble in Clinical groups

    Clovery replied to student89's topic in General Students

    I think calling her and setting her up to incriminate herself on speaker phone was pretty wrong. If I heard girls in my group did that to someone, I would think they were ganging up to get her in...

    Clovery replied to Miranda DeVore's topic in General Students

    try thinking of some psychosocial diagnoses... risk for disturbed self-concept or body image risk for ineffective sexuality patterns or sexual dysfunction risk for loneliness (r/t decr. socialization...

    In the process of eliminating distractions from my apartment for school, pointers?

    Clovery replied to ThePhilster's topic in General Students

    I think you're going a little overboard. You need time off to relax and stuff to reward yourself with. For example, you can watch your sunday night shows as long as you put in a good effort the rest...

    not sure when the forms are due, but if you're registered for your prereqs, then they do take that into consideration. register for micro in the summer if you

    Need help with care plan for constipation

    Clovery replied to jdeesbrown's topic in General Students

    i don't think you should change the diagnosis if the decreased activity is truly the related factor. but the constipation might also be related to pain meds or change in diet (hospital food). Some...

    Does your state let you administer parental meds as a NS student?

    Clovery replied to Striving2BG8's topic in General Students

    I haven't heard that we're not and we just had that practical, so I'm assuming we're allowed here in

    easily overwhelmed

    Clovery replied to bigeyes4's topic in General Students

    It's all "ADHD" now - "ADD" is no longer used. You don't have to be hyperactive to be diagnosed, it could be the "inattentive type". A psychiatrist can make the diagnosis and prescribe medications....

    easily overwhelmed

    Clovery replied to bigeyes4's topic in General Students

    Have you ever been tested for adult ADHD? I've heard from several people that they suffered from what they thought was depression for years, but it wasn't until they tried ADHD meds (stimulants) that...

    Clovery replied to Faeriewand's topic in General Students

    You really don't need that rolling suitcase of a backpack... it's ridiculous, makes it impossible for me to get to my seat (since you always get there super early and sit on the end of the row) and we...

    How do you study with a baby?!?

    Clovery replied to mrsb04's topic in General Students

    I have a 10 month old - his dad helps a lot but when it's just me and the baby and I need to study I usually go in his room, close the door and put all his toys all over the floor. I know they're bad...

    Clovery replied to peaceful nurse's topic in Patient Medications

    I am an student and we learned this semester that you NEVER aspirate, with any kind of injection. They didn't tell us why, but from what I've gathered from an internet search is that there's no...

    First semester random drug testing time

    Clovery replied to peasNrice's topic in General Students

    I would imagine they'd kick you out if you fail If it was just that once, you might be okay. You can buy a home test at drug stores to see if you need to take more drastic measures... If it's a hair...
