  1. Hemoglobin down, hematocrit normal

    I was wondering if anyone has come across a patient before who had a hemoglobin drop by 70g/L post op, with only a 0.04 change in Hct? I cannot figure out what may be the cause of this, as post-op...
  2. Security - Stethoscope Engraving

    I am wondering whether or not it would be a security issue for me to have my full name engraved onto my stethoscope. I am a new student, so I am still not sure how identification works. Will people be...
  3. Convert Pediatric Diaphragm to Bell

    I am attempting to convert my littmann classic III's pediatric diaphragm into a bell, but the diaphragm will not come off. I had no problems when I tried to remove the adult side, but the pediatric...
  4. Littmann Cardiology III - Worth it?

    I have been offered a Littmann Cardiology III (or IV-my choice) as a gift. I am a student. I have heard that the Cardiology models are great, but a little difficult to learn on, since you can hear so...
  5. A little confused about this. Did you get your review done in Ontario happy_gal? I am wondering if it's that slow at UBC health services, because I won't be able to get my review in BC until right...
  6. Has anyone's offer actually showed up online
  7. I think it would be breaking confidentiality to answer that, because it would tell people whether or not there are MMI style questions in the interview
  8. I thought of another opportunity for busy moms. My mother used to take me with her to volunteer at seniors homes. Many individuals living at the homes did not have visitors often, and they enjoyed...

  15. What's up with all the 'failed NCLEX' posts?

    I am not a nursing student yet, but I have a thought on it - perhaps it is because the NCLEX was just introduced to Canada. It has been big on the news in Canada lately that many Canadians are having...
  16. In past years, rejections have come last. They send approximately 3 rounds of offers beforehand. First, their top picks are sent out. Then, they have a certain deadline to accept the interview. If...
  17. University of Alberta Nursing 2nd Degree 2016

    Hi Everyone, Nice to see you all getting so excited about U of A Nursing. The rankings are out, and it is the third best program in the WORLD. I just applied to U of A and sent my transcripts in. I...
  18. People in all kinds of helping professions still have Facebook. Very little information of mine is available to the public, and I will keep it that way when I am a
  19. I think at this stage, it is important for everyone to relax. We've submitted our applications, and now the whole process is out of our control until interview time. Be confident! Set your e-mail to...
  20. Favorite ways to study for A&P and biology

    I like to study A&P chunk by chunk. I read a chapter, then stick to it until I am an "expert" on that system. Then, I move on to the next chapter. Eventually, you will become an expert on the...
  21. Skeletal system

    I am personally a big fan of the anatomy colouring books, but if you don't like colouring, "Essential Skeleton 4" is a great app. It goes into a lot of detail, and you can easily pick out smaller...
  22. Going back to school @ 26

    You are so definitely not too late! I met a guy once who was pursuing a nursing degree at 60 years old. If it is something you want to do, follow your dreams! Many people do nursing as a second degree...
  23. According to the admissions PowerPoint presentation, last year people were admitted with averages of 70-90%. It said that grades are weighted at 60% and supplemental at 40% for selections for...
