Someone please help me

Was almost done with my nursing care plan until my instructor tells me it's wrong and I should choose another nursing diagnosis! (sigh). Don't. Understand. General info on patient: Patient overweight. Consumes 4 oz liquid /day. No breakfast &snac...

This makes a lot of sense, but the only thing I'm worried about is that all of her airway, breathing, and pain problems are being treated (have been since she was admitted to the long-term care facility) with medications to which appear to solve any ...

These are what I have come up with so far. Let me know what you guys think. I appreciate all the help! I can't use any words in my nursing diagnosis that would be a medical dx (ex. pulmonary embolism, hypertension) 1. Activity intolerance rela...

What would you say hands down was or is the toughest thing about nursing school?

Makes a lot of sense!

Agreed! Lol Both helpful though.

Being specific, If you knew what you would experience or go through during nursing school..how would you or what would you have done to have been more prepared or made nursing school a better experience?

Great idea

? Lost in translation. :/ What do you mean by this?

Yea just the word accelerated being attached to nursing would frighten me. Lol

Thanks!!!

Hi fellow nursing students/nursing professionals, Is there anything you take to calm your nerves or help your body handle stress? Care to share? God Bless you !

LOL!Well, maybe something that doesn't involve drugs and alcohol.

Wow thanks! I figured if would be more about rationales rather than memorizing definitions or where something is located and how it functions. A of this info has been very helpful!!

Hello, Nursing School acceptance letters will be mailed on Monday of next week. Hopefully, if I get in, I was wondering what can I do to get prepared for the first semester? What subjects should I do a quick overview on? A&P? Dosage Calculations?...
