What did you learn in Micro?

Hello,

This web page will give you a pretty good idea as to why Microbiology is important and relevant to nursing. :)

Microbes and the World | Boundless Microbiology

Super relevant to nursing, I loved microbiology. My classmates and I learned about everything from sexually transmitted diseases, dna, super bacterias, viruses, proper disinfectants, antiseptics .We even got to grow bacteria we swabbed from our mouths, e coli, staph, in petri dishes and tubes...

Just finishing it! So relevant to nursing. I learned so much about viruses and bacteria, and I was surprised how much fun I had learning to grown a staphylococcus epidermidis culture. :) also learned a lot about parasites, sicknesses around the word, HIV.....

You learn all about bacterial and viral infections. It's very interesting actually! But it is a tough class because there's so much information. Definitely comes up when you're in nursing school.

I found a website called SketchyMedical and it looks like a great way to learn microbiology. The only thing is, it's geared toward medical students, so I was unsure if I wanted to spend the money if it did not cover the same material. However, I wonder how different it could be. Either way, when the semester starts, I am going to do a free trial to see if it is helpful.

I am not in nursing school yet, but this class was such a blast! I just took my final 2 days ago. 70-something college hours and this was by far the best class I have ever taken. It is so interesting. I honestly hated to be done with it! :)
