  2. Well, first off there are no semesters, only quarter units, so that means that every month there is a new class. I love the format because I can focus hard on one subject and move on to the next, and...
  3. Well, no it's not quite that simple. The schedule is all over the place. Sometimes there are lectures 3 days a week and on Saturdays. There are no guarantees about your clinical rotations being...
  4. How do you keep from making med errors?

    Which of these statements made by the nursing student indicates a necessity for further education? A. "I am realizing after coming home this morning that I don't remember giving one of the patients...
  8. How did she/he get through nursing school?

    Agreed. There are a lot of people in this forum that graduate from a nursing program and seem to think they have achieved the impossible. Granted, it is a great accomplishment to procure a degree in...
  9. It might. We have class on Saturday and Sunday all the time. Welcome to nursing

  17. CBD & Nursing don't mix

    I tried to look for results too, I couldn't find anything conclusive, and we don't know that those that tested positive were also ingesting other cannabis products with THC. I was curious as to how...
  18. CBD & Nursing don't mix

    Incorrect. It comes from hemp, not marijuana. Different plants. One produces THC, the other CBD. It wouldn't show up on a drug test. Hemp vs. Marijuana vs. Cannabis: What's the difference? - CBD
  19. CBD & Nursing don't mix

    I think a bit of clarity is in order here. According to the quest laboratories information page (the largest drug screening company for healthcare personnel in the United states), the urinalysis for...

  21. Yeah I should have clarified you have to be accepted and go to orientation to be a member. I can assure you that no one checks if you go to the workshops. I've been going since December and my...
