   i'm a new staff nurse in a surgical oncology unit. I'm still on my preceptorship but much of the workload are already being delegated to me, which means I'll be on my own very soon. My preceptor said I can go on my own now, tho I have to know how to ...

   Thank you so much! My professors have been teaching us to go to MS wards first before moving on to a specialty. Been feeling troubled about this since I never liked working in MS (although crit care was so cool).

13. HOW do people do well in Anatomy & P?

    MaryFutureRN replied to Upward_Bound's topic in General Students

    Anatomy and Physiology is memorization, unfortunately. But don't focus on memorization.. focus on understanding. Be interested (and amazed ) with what you're learning. When you're interested, you understand better. And when you understand, you retai...

    MaryFutureRN replied to mursuli428's topic in General Students

    Hi, going on my 3rd year BSN program now. What I learned though in nursing school is not only working hard, but working smart. The lecture classes are always bulky in material and always you will have a bulky amount of information to learn. But don'...
