Wound and vac assistance?
I hope some wound nurse can help me out! I am a new grad (going on 4 months exp) working in short term rehab. I work for a level 1 tc / teaching center but our facility is off campus and due to our patient population accepted we have fewer resource than our main campus friends. My question finally - since the entirety of the patient's wound cannot visualized, should the nurses push towards different therapy? I trust my PA's call but I just felt that since there might possible more underneath this wound if another treatment would be better. Also, is there a good resource for wound vacs out there? I checked KCl's website but found it hard to navigate and that their education wasn't towards nursing. Thanks

Graduate Nursing schools with no GRE
Just my 2 cents but I don't think having a rare genetic disorder makes you any higher candidate for grad school. Grad school is most likely ranking candidates off of grades/experience/money (tuition)... Not trying to be rude, simply stating an opinion.

Yep pretty sure I failed lol The next 48 hours are going to be a pain!

Should I wait to have a baby?
I am 26 years old. I had my first baby in between my Junior and Senior year. 3 weeks before the start of my Fall/Senior semester I gave birth via unplanned c-section with postpartum-PIH. Then had terrible time bonding because of stupid postpartum depression. Now obviously I didn't plan for these complications but it was now really hard!! During classes I was okay being all fat and pregnant. I didn't have any health problems during. No special accommodations was given in class or clinical. Baby appointments had to be scheduled around my 2 classs days (T&Th 920-3pm) and 3 clinical days (MWF 630-2pm). Then I worked weekends waitressing. I got very sick after I had the baby. Then I had to find childcare to meet the above schedule plus time to study. I would cram study week nights so long as I had a babysitter *Thank the Heavens for grandma!* I didn't fail anything, and graduated this May Spring semester was 100x harder because baby was about 6 months old and turned mobile. I couldn't just put her in her swing for an hour beside me while I did homework. I had to take her with me to study some days. My husband works for racing and was at the shop 7-6ish M-F and weekends was usually gone. It was just me and good ole' grandma helping me some days. There was a clinical night where I stayed up to write a patho, finally fell asleep and baby woke -.- It sucked. To end my short little story - It is hard, either before, or after, or both to have a new baby during nursing school. It is hard to have older children during nursing school. It can be done though. Just don't forget that baby has its own plans and so does your body. Make sure that you understand that mommyhood or school may have to be sacrificed in the event that something doesn't go perfectly. It is up to your amount of determination and whatever help you can scrounge up if you want to succeed. But remember that "Well I have a newborn"..."I'm pregnant" is a LAME excuse to fail or use when you're running late, don't have your homework, are not prepared for clinical, have to miss class etc.. Especially when it has been done before.
