BUTTE - A dozen patients of a clinic run by two nurse practitioners picketed St. James Healthcare Thursday over the hospital's requirement that doctors sign off on the nurses' orders for diagnostic tests, such as MRI's. http://www.missoulian.com/arti...
I have to start all over...again...to do this. Even though my campus is supposed to be part of the main campus, many things still don't transfer. I need to do it now or waste another year..
Love, love, LOVE my A&P instructor. I wish he was my dad! lol Friday in cadaver lab he was kind enough to explain morning wood and blue balls to bunch of young women. He was beet red but said it all quite nicely. :)
How funny...someone just said something about this to me today and I was clueless. He said it is the 80 hours we spend in LPN school following around preceptors.
An LPN who is going for his RN got to take care of my son today. We're in an English class together. He did a good job but it was odd. I guess I better get used to that since we don't live in a gigantic city. My older son accidently ran over my li...
People can be odd without having others completely over react. He is a great nurse and person. If you think for one second I would put my child in a dangerous or unsafe situation with any practitioner, you are mistaken. I am the patient who will l...
My 5 year old spent the day at school with me. During lab today, he helped to dissect the sheeps kidney. It was so cute. He came to one of my study labs a while back and spent the whole hour copying different molecules and then gave his pictures ...
I didn't get any pictures...my cell phone can't send them anyway. He is a smart little guy. The instructor hung them on her fridge but did put big stars on them before she took them home.
I don't know him super well. He made an odd comment when he was talking to my son trying to be funny, but I won't go in to that. He was very tired and I'm going to chalk it up to that. He's a nice guy and he's a good nurse. It was a little stran...
I don't know what the deal was today. The smell usually isn't that bad and I have a great charcoal mask anyway but today as soon as you opened the lab door the smell damn near knocked you over! On to the cool stuff... Our male cadaver died of leuke...
I wonder if people who donate their bodies really understand what is going to happen to them... That would completely freak me out getting a cat like that!
You don't have to touch the cadavers...or really even look at them, but you have to come to the lab or the professor will drop 5 points off your overall lab scores for every lab you miss. We have one girl who cries at every lab and she only really e...
We don't do the disection, we just get to look around in them and see what it is we are attempting to memorize. The pre-med students do the disecting. We have had sheep brains and eyes to work on. I think it's next week when we get the sheep heart...

I hope you hear better news from the other school. Good luck! Our school currently had room for 13 this semester for the LPN.They usually have 20 spots per semester. I won't apply until next fall.
I'm really disappointed with myself but I'm considering it my practice run. I'll get a low A or B in my english, a low B or high C in my intermediate algebra (hate math) and if hell freezes over a LOOOOOW C in my A&P class, the one that is 1&...

He said the parts of bones, not the bones themselves. You can do it! Trying starting at the skull, going over it repeatedly and adding a new section of bones on, going over it all repeatedly. Good luck!

My coloring book is by Wynn Kapit/Lawrence E. Elson. Love it! My flash cards, which were great for muscles, are Barron's Anatomy Flash Cards. Came with a great muscle poster too.
