Way to go Marieke!!! I'm very proud of you! I know how hard nursing school is. I'm struggling everyday just to get through. You are going to make an awesome nurse.

Any ideas where you want to work? I'm hoping to join Tanya in Labor and Delivery or Pediatrics.
I'm loving clinicals right now. It's such a great feeling knowing you are helping someone in need:-)

It is soooo wonderful to have a growing number of knowledgable nurses in our UBPN Family! Thank you all for sharing and supporting us--I for 1, am alot more at ease with my injuries, including secondary ones as we aged.

Hugs to all,

Allison,
You must be almost done..?

good luck! I am just happy I passed the board exam from hell! 100 short answer questions and 16 OSCE (practical scenarios)

Hi Marieke:-)
Just 3 more semesters to go. This first semester of Med/Surg clinicals flew by. We're learning the meds and will actually be passing meds, doing im injections, sub q inj. intradermal inj, and haning IV drips. MEDS are the biggie and scare me the most. Eveything else is smooth sailing. I love working with the patients helping them in any way I can.

Those darn care plans are a pain in the butt though!!!
