  2. Most people that do their practicum do days and nights but I'm not sure if you can only do days. Also, can you choose where your clinicals are it seems most are in hospitals, what about nursing homes, hospice or doctor offices?
  3. How to eat during clinicals

    Hello everyone. I'm not going to make this a big deal although it is a little of a concern. I'm very nervous about doing clinicals for the first time. I also have acid reflux and I hear some how nurses and nursing students going all day without peein...

  6. Should I be a nurse? Fears, bodily fluids etc

    Because a lot of nurses use this site. I want the honest truth, I'm only determined to try. I have decided to shadow and do what I can to see if I have what it takes but I haven't completely decided weather I'll actually 'apply' to any programs. I'm ...

  10. Should I be a nurse? Fears, bodily fluids etc

    I think your right!! I've seen my family changed a baby diaper but I never did it myself, I only watched it smelt bad but not really it was tolerable not much of a big deal. I've had a pet throw up and had diarrhea all over the floor in my garage an...

    Thanks and and I will. Yeah I need to work on that choosing the easy way was a bad habit of mine, I plan on changing that. Also, thanks to everyone that was honest and gave good advice. I'll be reporting back in 1-2 weeks!
  12. Should I be a nurse? Fears, bodily fluids etc

    Well i I still want to try. People are sick and there will be stuff all around that I have to deal with but I've never actually seen face to face what nurses do. I'm just not accustom to things like vomit, stool, mucus etc. so at first I'll probably ...
  13. Should I be a nurse? Fears, bodily fluids etc

  16. Should I be a nurse? Fears, bodily fluids etc

    Sorry for so many typos I was typing so fast. Just to clarify the doctor told me that the family member has sepsis. And I didn't know what sepsis was so I had to google it.
