4. I have to make the 'right' choice.

   cscb2003 replied to StudentOfHealing's topic in General Students

   cscb2003 replied to GodIs082010's topic in General Students

   It's where you demonstrate the skills you have been taught (bed baths, changing the bed with pt in it, catheters etc...). At my school, you get a check list of the exact steps you will be tested on...

7. Nursing Process: Evaluation

   cscb2003 replied to whitneyp's topic in General Students

9. Why am I so nervous?!

   cscb2003 posted a topic in General Students

   I feel so ridiculous, I know that it's 'normal' to feel nervous when you first start clinicals, but I am sooo nervous that I am dreading going to my next clinical day tomorrow. I have been looking...

13. My beautiful self..

    cscb2003 replied to youshallbehealed's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with the above posters, you are probably just a bit insecure...maybe the language barrier? The library system is an excellent source that you may want to consider. Also, you dont need to...

14. about to start but not ready.

    cscb2003 replied to rocketberger's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
