Banana nut BSN, RN, EMT-B

Awesome thank you for the heads up! Pharm online over the summer was cake, I got an A and put maybe 50% effort so I have a feeling these classes will be totally doable. Give me a heads up when you get your acceptance letter! I'll keep this thr...

Yah I hear they are both great classes. How was the class? Do you have any pointers you could give me?

I'm taking life cycles 1 and 2 and Medical terms and history. I have a busy time ahead

Cool me too! What are you taking this semester?

Nice! With Danko? I took it with her online last semester too

She is palpating the radial pulse. You should feel it before you pump the cuff then as you start pumping the pulse will stop at some point. When you notice you dont feel the radial pulse anymore pump 30 more mmhg. Then slowly deflate the cuff. Wh...

Nice you will will totally get in! I'm at 87 I think.

Nice! Good luck to you as well. How many points did you end up with?

Good luck bud! I'm applying for Saddleback spring 2017. I'm an emt too I personally refuse to take out loans that's why I'm doing the cc route. I'm not paying a dime at the moment for school and plan on having money in the bank when I graduate. B...

Hi op. I once heard a nursing professor reference an Australian study done recently, it came to the conclusion that 60% nursing graduates do not have the clinical reasoning skills to practice nursing safely. It also found that 25%of nurses with 10 y...

Thank you very much for the quick response.

I'm a little confused with this because on the directions it says "8ml (when mixed with 8ml of diluent)" wouldn't this mean a total of 16ml? Please let me know if I'm totally off. Thank you

I am learning too! I am just continuing the conversation and trying to facilitate the discussion. If he/she reads this they may learn something. For all we know they may not ever come back on this website (I hope they do and i hope things are more...

OK so if we need to give 125ml over 30 min we can set the pump for 250ml/hr and let it run for 30 minutes. Is this thinking too abstract or will it work?

It's going to be 4.16ml/min. I got this because I just divided 125ml/30min. If you take 4.16ml every minute for 30 minutes it comes to 125 ml total. If I'm wrong please someone stop me now and clarify. Thank you

That's a good score! Does ap English lit for high school come to be equivalent to English 1a?

OK no problem at all I'm available all day tomorrow.

I'll face time with your for free and show you how to do it just pm me.

If your program in competitive you will need As in all your core sciences. If you can't get As you won't be getting in as easily. It just depends on your program. I personally took my core classes by themselves or with easy GE classes.

I just applied to my community college nursing program on the first of this month. I have been getting a pell grant of $2k per semester it comes out to between $500 and $700 extra a month. I am also getting the board of governors fee waver becaus...

This is some great advice! I am doing this now as well. I'm able to go to school like it's a second job. I get grants and I use them as paychecks along with work.

To take a BP manually requires as little as a plastic disposable steth. You should not need anything fancy. You do need to make sure you are aware of the anatomy and the artery location. If your steth is not on the artery it will be hard to hear...

For the first one I would reconstitute with 4.75ml of NS and put it at 1ml/min for 5 minutes. The second one will be 1ml/min and it will take 4 minutes. This may be wrong but this is what I got.

I am right there with you. I have a wife and ten month old daughter that I am supporting while I go to school full time. I am going the community college route. I will be applying to Saddleback college nursing program tomorrow. I have the tuiti...

This is very true! You will have to get through that hurdle.
