  1. I just started as a postpartum nurse and am thrilled! May I ask how long the access to the videos was please?
  2. How much time did you need in order to cover the entire question bank? I’m wondering which package I should subscribe for, it’s just so pricey. Any pointers from anyone would be very much appreciated.??
  3. It does sound a lot like you're experiencing plantar fasciitis. The various shoe changes didn't do much for me, just provided temporary relief. Amazingly(to me), what helped is the $25 splint for plantar fasciitis that I bought at the supermarket pharmacy. This splint keeps your foot flexed 'toes toward your nose' style during the night, which I felt seemed entirely unrelated to the excruciating heel pain I was feeling by the end of the day. But miraculously it really works! If you want to just experiment with the idea of forcing your aching foot in a 'flexed upwards', before investing in the splint, you could try sleeping with a wall against your feet to keep the toes from stretching downwards while sleeping. I still can't believe a splint that simply kept my foot flexed upwards during the night would completely resolve my horrible heel pain. It felt so counterintuitive to me. Do try!
  4. Ask the crew if they have an 'indemnity form'. Many airlines carry a form of this nature but will not automatically offer it. In other words, all you need to do is ask. í ½í¹‚
  5. A Wonder Woman or Superman mug. For the wondrous woman or man.:-)
  6. I'm in the second year of my BSN, and will be graduating at 51. Nursing school is tough, but with perseverance and by finding a good study partner, it is certainly doable. Experience really helps give you perspective too! You're more able to see how each course and each part of your learning fits into the construction project of creating a new nurse. I too was worried about how my age might make it more difficult to learn, especially among classmates who are high-achievers from their own previous schooling. I am happy to report that I've been Acing every single subject, despite having to be wife and mom whenI get home, so age has not been an issue. Go ahead and pursue your dream, if Nursing is your passion!í ½í¹‚
  7. There's a FB closed group called 'Young Nurses' Network-Fraser Valley' that you could share messages with. ������ My two cents on orienting into the nursing world is to imagine yourself having to do a clinical rotation with a first year student, with you as preceptor on top of your normal duties. What could that first year student do to gain your friendship? As a new person on the job, the first year student will be full of questions for you and will appear to do most tasks in slow motion, making you have to work extra hard at times. We've all been there, and to differing extents understand how it feels to be new. If you are willing to learn faster, perhaps you could try volunteering to help/do tasks for another nurse (that you like) after your own tasks are done. Reaching out to others when they're not expecting it might help open the gateway to new friendships. I suggest you stick with your present job for a while so as to gain some experience at least for 6 months but preferably a year, or you might find it awkward answering questions on why you left your current job when interviewing for another job. Wishing you all the best!
  8. Congratulations! Such happy news!í ½í¸ƒ
  9. There seems to be trouble with the sound quality of the video.
