  1. Fall 12 NRSE 4520 Assessment and Promotion

    cincinursemary replied to cincinursemary's topic in Ohio University

    I don't see anything either. It is maddening, the whole DB is about evaluation methods and why choose one over the other, and the book has almost nothing to address either of those. I have been...

    cincinursemary replied to cincinursemary's topic in Ohio University

    OMG, 2 people in my section already have their DB done! Maybe I am making this way harder than it has to be. I wanted to cry when I read through everything to be done this week. I guess I just have...

  4. Ohio University RN-to-BSN Program

    cincinursemary replied to chuckster's topic in Ohio University

    I'm 8 months into the program and am wondering if this is going to be worth it. Seriously, I am getting so tired of school, and yesterday I figured I have 14 more classes that they say I need to take....

    You got that right!, geeze Louise! When I got up to get supper started, I felt like I was 90 years old, my butt hurt, my hips hurt, and I was walking like a robot. School is definately hard on the...

    Does anyone know where I can find out info on how to calculate the thoracic AP/Lateral ratio? I really dont understand that, and have a person with kyphosis, so I know the chest is "barrel chest",...

    cincinursemary replied to cincinursemary's topic in Ohio University

    There are 2 forms, one is a focused health history form, the other is the assessment form. You have to copy one after the other in the same document and submit both as one document. Also add the...

    cincinursemary replied to cincinursemary's topic in Ohio University

    No grades yet either. How are we supposed to learn from our mistakes if we don't get them back in time to help us with the next assignment? I know it's a lot for them to grade in a short time, but we...

    cincinursemary replied to cincinursemary's topic in Ohio University

    This is the first time they combined assessment and health promotion from 2 classes into 1, and so we do have a mishmash of topics. I hope they take the evaluations seriously and improve for those...

    It's the 36 dollar one. Don't buy the course. I found it hard to find and made the mistake of buying the course thinking the case study was in the course. Having a hard time getting a refund. Another...

    cincinursemary replied to cincinursemary's topic in Ohio University

    I emailed my TA to inquire if she knew if the OU system was down. She replied, it has been slow all day and they are working on it. I just wanted her to know that I had tried to access the course...

    I figured it this way, The long version has just short phrases, a few words at most. The narrative has complete sentences. I didn't rehash everything in the narrative, I just documented the problems...

    cincinursemary replied to cincinursemary's topic in Ohio University

    Well said. Things have got to get better. I spent about 6-8 hours on this assignment all together. It was way longer than it needed to be because of the formatting of the forms. Those underline were...

    cincinursemary replied to cincinursemary's topic in Ohio University

    cincinursemary replied to cincinursemary's topic in Ohio University

    I share your frustration. It feels like they are flying by the seat of their pants. There is nothing in the syllabus about assignments being subject to change. I am using the first set of things that...
