  1. A & P study ideas

    HIPAAPotamus replied to amber0627's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Pretty much what everyone else said, and: I adore the Anatomy Crash Course series on YouTube. It doesn't teach you the details of organ systems, but it definitely fills in some grey spots, as well as...

  3. Should I buy a nice stethoscope?

    HIPAAPotamus replied to arojumper's topic in General Students

    My mother bought me a Littman Cardio III for Christmas - she said I could buy several inexpensive ones and then a nice one, or a nice one and watch it like a hawk (I also had it engraved). It's so...

    Thank you

  7. ECT

    HIPAAPotamus replied to edie1's topic in Psychiatric

    I'm a student, but deeply interested in psych nursing. I also had between 8-10 rounds of ECT when I was 18. No psychopharmacology was hitting, I was deeply depressed, and my mother and I were looking...

  8. Working, school, and kids...starting prerequisites! Anyone else?!

    HIPAAPotamus replied to RBancroft's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It's totally doable, as long as you've got a family that understand that you'll be in med-mode for a few years. Fortunately, with your BM you'll have a bunch of pre-reqs taken care of, and you can...

  10. When did you know you wanted to be a nurse?

    HIPAAPotamus replied to rachflamini's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Music nerds unite!! Maybe you can find a different story for every patient for your scar. Though the original is pretty interesting. Do you still play at all, even for fun? One of the things I find...

  11. When did you know you wanted to be a nurse?

    HIPAAPotamus replied to rachflamini's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've had a highly successful stage career, have a master's level degree in music, and one day, my mom (a 50 year nursing veteran) walked past me and said, "Oh, I always thought you'd be a phenomenal...

  12. Bad professor?

    HIPAAPotamus replied to KatFUTUREnurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I had a chemistry professor who had terrible reviews on RMP, and lived up to the hype. I doubled my normal efforts, studying outside of the classroom and using Khan Academy to fill in the blanks, and...

  13. ER Experience - I'm A Wee Bit Upset

    HIPAAPotamus replied to emmjayy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I used it to my advantage. My mother (a 50 year nursing veteran) recently had a left lobectomy of the liver to remove cancer. It's a huge surgery, and I was by her side every day for a month. One day,...
