Hi Everyone, This is my first post on this forum, so hope it's in the right spot : ) I am starting an accelerated nursing program this summer and my program does not require microbiology as a prerequisite. I don't have the space in my schedule to take it this semester, but I was wondering if anyone can recommend some resources or even a good textbook that I could use to teach myself so that I will have the background that I need. thanks! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A BSNA program is already intense and you won't find much free time to read other books... let alone have a life. I'm just being honest. I admire your enthusiasm though. I can tell you are going to be a good nursing student. You will learn a lot about viruses, bacteria, protozoa, and fungi during your nursing courses, such as pharm, patho, Med-surg. Hope this helps :) This may be a useful tool though: Microbiology | Homework Help | CliffsNotes Edited Jan 22, 2015 by Pink Magnolia 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
