  1. Stay above it all but don't be too isolated. Do not take sides. Many of your colleagues couldn't care less if you fail out of nursing school. Be stoic and get out of nursing school with a degree.
  2. Pharmacology - best way to learn

    I would go with flow charts. With a flow chart you can make sense of their main system. So if you have a CNS medication you can pretty much say it affects the CNS, or if you have an anti-diarrheal (digestive system). Then with adverse reactions, toxi...
  3. Schools misrepresenting clinical site locations

    Is there any employment related benefit of having placements in the community setting? It's unfortunate and I may look into transferring to another school downtown if my school selects placements in a preschool again. Community placements might be be...
  4. ****, I feel so bad asking people about this question. I asked my teacher last week, she said I can pick the same stage for each mechanism. So Stages are 1. ROM 2. Ferguson's 2. Crowning So I got it wrong. I still came out with 80, thankfully.
  5. Mix and match answer question, one each. Where do these mechanisms take place? 1. Rupture of Membranes 2. Ferguson's Reflex 3. Crowning a. First Stage b. Second Stage c. Third stage
  6. Advice

    See a doctor. That sounds serious.
  7. Failed preceptorship

    These are some stupid mistakes. Especially the random insulin vial? Why didn't you tell the teacher it was lying there? Nervous?
  8. It was public health, then I wanted to travel. Now I just want NICU. I realized it when I bathed a baby in Post Partum, an I doing L&D, I don't like it very much. I'm a male nurse and I often have to switch patients. I missed a vag delivery and i...
  9. Why the double standard.

    Probably because I want expressed verbal consent.. I'm not doing anything without it.
  10. Any men in OB?

    Why? I did Post Partum and Labour Delivery clinicals these past few weeks and I realized that it's not for me. I like the NICU though after I did two tours in that area.
  11. Nursing Admissions: A Frustrated Student's Manifesto

    The most honest reply I've seen in this thread so far.
  12. Do you NEED a study group to get through nursing school?

    Nobody wants to form a study group when I asked. So I study by myself. One thing though, they use my quizlet notes that I make for myself and study with that. I really don't know half the people using my notes. People claim to be lone wolfing but my ...
  13. that is a one year program, many students who take it intend to become Nurses. At Humber your courses will be Critical Thinking, Mathematics for both semesters, Chemistry, Microsoft Office, and English for both semesters. That Microsoft Office class ...
  14. STUDY? HOW?!!!

    During mid-terms when I was failing Anatomy I turned to flashcards and quizlet, which is an online flashcard site. I looked at my flashcards from my phone and studied every night, while I was on the bus, while I was eating lunch, dinner etc. Basicall...
  15. Laptop suggestions

    I'd get anything by ASUS, there's some 15" and 11" laptops there. You can run windows on a Mac also, so it's not impossible to run school software. I'm not sure how good you are with computers so here's some instructions here. https://support.apple....
  16. Any tips for a new nursing student?

    Emphasis on the serious, I worked the hardest out of my group and was the only one to get into this Bachelor of Nursing program. So now I need a new group lol.
  17. I Need A Nurse To Interview!!

    Yeah I just interviewed my Nurse aunt for this assignment. I contacted many places but they were too busy to bother with wet behind the ears students. There's really no incentive to keep flipping the phone book just to be told in a round a bout way "...
  18. Read post #20. That is what I am addressing.
  19. Quit during orientation

    It's not an internship though, it's a job. Should have stayed until more opportunities in that hospital opened up. Work there long enough, maybe ask for more responsibility.
  20. Seems you may have to move to a remote area. And gender discrimination does occur both ways in the workplace I'm not sure why some of you think it's wrong to be critical about some hiring processes. To stifle someone's criticism on the basis of gende...
  21. Is Sheridan GAS-health option the right choice?

    If you're just doing RPN, just do adult school and make sure you come out with a good gpa. If you were doing RN I'd say do GAS but do it at Humber or Seneca. GAS is overkill for something like RPN. I did GAS and got accepted into Humber's RN program.
  22. C's on all my Anatomy and Physiology classes.

    You say you're not good with sciences yet you want a science degree.
  23. I got accepted into the BN program at Humber, after taking GAS. Do I have to take A&P again? I already took the same program in GAS.
  24. Stereotyping Male Nurses

    They can call me gay all they want.
  25. How many men in your cohort?

    1/40 in my class
