Recommended Readings Before Nursing School

Published

I've just been accepted into the ADN Program at my local community college and I'll be starting fall of 2017. I was wondering if anyone had recommendations for reading material to prepare myself for school? I graduated last year so Ill definitely freshen up with my physio,anatomy, and micro. Thanks!

House of God - it's a classic, must-read for all healthcare professionals.

I Wasn't Strong Like This When I Started Out - collection of stories from veteran nurses about their most memorable experiences.

I'd advise against trying to jump the gun via self study on curriculum topics. You may end up on the wrong foot due to misinterpretation of complex concepts.. which you'd then have to "unlearn".

Congratulations on your acceptance & best wishes on your educational journey.
