BAY AREA RN BSN

I'm sure its hard for her to retire because as you stated nursing the pts, and her fellow employees is all she has. she has no kids, husband has died, and maybe she understands that once she retires she will be alone which is scary. Maybe someone can...

I am sorry that you are going through this its a lot at 1 time. Thank him for not wasting anymore of your time, like you said you have already invested 3 years and thought he was the one. understand your pain and its a hard life lesson to learn about...

first day of nursing school was full on bootcamp.We started at 0700am and ended at 430pm. the first hour was introduction and the rest was full on lectures with 2 breaks and an hour lunch in-between. We went over atleast 2-3 chapters thoroughly. Espe...

hey it never hurts for him to try. Once he see the hoops you have to jump through such as waitlist and lotteries, prereq requirements and entrance exams he may have a change of heart. If he don't then this might be something that he really want to do...

this is simple. remember in class they talked about working in your scope of practice. Your job title is a CNA, thats what they hired you for. You have an RN license but you are not an RN at that facility. Throwing around titles can get patients and...

hey you are passing the class, nursing school is graded way more harder than other majors such as needing to stay above a 75 or 80 depending on the program. Keep hanging in there. You will be an amazing nurse majority of the stuff you will use in you...

if the teacher gives you power points, study those and if its something you don't understand then go into the book because with the amount of chapters they give you, you wont be able to read it all and focus on what the teacher has in the lecture no...

i believe most programs is this way, mine is also. There is a lot of info we must go through in a short period of time. Don't be nervous if you aren't retaining everything it is impossible. Keep up what you are doing and stay afloat in your classes. ...

you have 1 semester left and you want even have to deal with these people. Doesn't sound like bullying, but you are an adult and what people think of you shouldn't be able to shape your career. **** them. finish out strong and get your degree that is...

Reading all the chapters is to much. If your teacher gives you outlines and power points that is what you should study. I say go into the book when there is something that you didnt understand though lecture. Also record the lectures and play them ba...

the thing about sciences is you need to learn how to study for them and have time management. Getting a D doesn't mean that you can't learn it just means that you didn't study efficiently. for example don't try to read all the chapters if they give y...

city college has an amazing program, i am going into my last semester and it has been wonderful. ccsf and smu uses some of the same clinical sights so the experience in the hospital rotations are the same. i know its a hard decision to choose, if mon...

it is always possible for you to work a shift after church ends or before it begins depending on the church services schedule

seems like you need to worry about your self and your future. you just gave us a list of everyone elses faults. you seem real judgmental and that can also be a characteristic that they seen in you. you are not entitled to an award and its only a piec...

just walk up and say hello, ask do any one want to start a study group. im for sure everyone one else feels the same way.

just don't tell them what type of procedure you had incase you have to get a C/S. Classmate got an induction over spring break, and ended up needing a C/S and the drs wouldn't clear her to go back to school so now she's a semester behind. you can't c...

how are you in IV's. My teacher would give the people who she believed needed more practice (myself for sure) a pt with an IV every clinical. Now I am very strong and confident in doing them. Also if your teacher asks for your assistance then take it...

don't be discourage by chem. I had a similar experience with my chem teacher. Had to withdraw and take a W. Got a new teacher and passed it with a high B. I am now a semester away from finishing nursing school and you can do it too.

my school is the same way. i had classmates that were sent home for not being fully informed on their pt. diseases. We have to go to the hospital the day before clinicals to get pt. labs ( know why they are out of range), all meds info, illnesses, nu...

if you can video record yourself and classmates doing the sims the correct way. Then you go home and practice the motions, talk myself through them and write down each step on paper. I would go back and watch the video and see if i missed any steps.

thats a normal way to feel, you want feel like a nurse til the end and then you might not feel completely like one. After you make it through a couple of semesters the info will start becoming a second language. You will start answering questions you...
