  1. Stroke Care Plan Assistance

    Hello all, I am currently in my adult (3rd) semester of school and am writing my care plan. This is my first time on a Tele floor. We have always pretty much stayed on med surg so this is unfamiliar...
  2. We just started back on Monday and I feel as though someone threw me into the deep end of the pool. In our school we rotate systems so my group is the lucky group starting with Cardiac. Womp womp!...
  3. Question about Fundamentals

    In my experience, I love when professors don't teach the book. If I just read it, I don't want you to just repeat what I read. Make it different so I can bring it together. Nursing school is about...
  4. I lost my father while taking my prereqs to get into nursing school. It is difficult but I just realized I could not stop everything I was doing because of it. We never had a great relationship so...
  5. Does your school discourage working?

    I think most nursing programs discourage working. I completely understand why however I feel my school almost looks down on you if you work. I have to work to support my family. I do believe it makes...
  6. Children and nursing school

    I am a mother to one 18 month old and my husband as well also travels for work. Although I know 1 18 month old is not the same as 4 kiddos it still is a tough job. I have a lot of friends in the...
  7. Annnnnd it happened anyways...

    Not sure if this is applicable for everyone. My doctor always induces at 39 weeks because he says an induced labor is much easier, maybe longer but not always harder. He says the baby is technically...
  8. Is Pregnancy During Nursing School Doable?

    PPS....any reason you are not getting married first? I may be old fashioned, but it seems like you are putting the cart in front of the horse.....and I have seen so very many "fiances" walk out of the...
  9. Is Pregnancy During Nursing School Doable?

    I am in the same position. My husband and I want to try for baby number 2 in a few months to deliver late May early June (summer break). I am already a mom to a 18 month old so I don't have to worry...
  10. Pregnant during nursing school

    Thanks everyone for your input, I love hearing different opinions. For me personally, family is first everything else is 2nd. I would hate to think I gave up an opportunity to expand my family and...

  12. How ready are you for nursing school?

    This semester was my first semester in Nursing school and our school throws you into clinicals as of day 1 pretty much. I saw, felt, smelt, dealt with a lot in just one semester. I delt with adults...
  13. Nursing student and mom, how to juggle

    I agree with most of the mommas up here. I only have 1 son but he is in the "momma attached toddler stage." So getting anything done is impossible with him around. I made sure to make my son the first...
  14. Mom & Nursing Student

    I just finished up my first semester with a now 18 month old. I made it a priority to spend time with my son and didn't allow school to run my life. With that being said I didn't make straight A's....
  15. How was microbiology for you? Grade for you? Topics covered?

    I hate to admit it but Micro was a blur for me. I was 9 months pregnant by the Final (in fact feeling contractions to take my final)! My teacher was really cool with helping me out with the class and...
  16. Skills Checkoffs and Anxiety

    In our school there are usually professors available during practice time so have you tried maybe getting a professor to watch you a few times before the actual test, or set up an individual...

    Extremely powerful and well said! You go
  19. Best approach to nursing school

    I don't have a ton of experience with whats right or wrong but I chose to do the ADN route and go for my BSN after. I chose this because I am along with nursing classes finishing my prereqs so by time...
  20. I just registered for my first semester of Nursing school!!

    Congratulations on being accepted in to school. It seems ages ago since I was accepted (yet I only just finished my first semester lol). Advice, don't stress too much. Nursing school so far has not...
  21. New nursing student

    Congratulations on getting in! I just finished my foundations semester going into mental health this summer. It is hard to say exactly what you will need because everyone learns and studies...
  22. Nursing school schedule

    I am in an ADN 2 year program. We pick our own classes except for the first semester. I hope to stick to the same type of schedule I had. I had theory and skills on tuesdays basically 8-4:30 and...
  23. How long did it take you to get your first RN job?

    What did you do that landed you a job so quickly, if you don't mind
  24. It's Not Fair!

    I agree, it is not always whining. I am a very dominant type A personality therefore I don't always (hardly ever) take no for an answer. If I question the answer its either going to get me points back...
  25. 79.4%..really?

    So I just finished my first semester of Nursing School. Got an A in skills, a "well deserved" B in clinicals, and then there is theory. I worked my butt off studing for this class and ended with a...
