What is in your clinical bag?
I usually just carry a lunch bag, clipboard, and keep my other necessities (pen light, stethoscope, shears, pens) in my scrub pockets :)

First Semester BSN Program
Clinical wise, always be eager to learn and volunteer for different skills :-)

What was your hardest class and how did you study for it?
Don't feel alone! I haven't touched a flash card since anatomy lol :-) As for my hardest class, definitely OB/Peds Theories class! I have never been interested in working either place and the material just seemed so overwhelming to me. I really had to read the chapters multiple times to get a grasp, but what helped me really understand were the awesome nurses on the floors :-)

How long do you study each day?
I usually study between 1-3 hours a day and a little more on the day before tests. I do take several pages of notes each class and that really helps me with learning the material :-)

Which stethoscope do you like?
I have the Littmann Cardiology III and absolutely LOVE it :-) I do find it a little heavy when I wear around my neck though so I tend to keep in my scrub pocket.

Just had my first day as a student nurse, advice needed....
This is exactly what I thought :-) When I started clinical I honestly never thought about all the "gross" aspects of the job because I would hate to have to lay in poop, urine, and/or sweat for very long. Just have to put yourself in the patient's situation.
