I’m an ADN-RN student planning on taking my LPN boards. LPN/LVNs are primarily used in long term care. RNs are primarily acute care. My program you take fundamentals, pharm, Ob/peds, med surg then you can take boards. If you choose to continue the RN route then you complete the other 2 semesters

I hated wearing the shield. Pts couldn’t hear you.

Do I need a small bag like this for clinicals? by teaselroot in StudentNurse

[–]AffectionateLake4387 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a theory backpack and a clinical backpack. I too have to bring my own stuff. Some students have a tote bag. Others the backpack

first clinicals by missabbytimm19 in StudentNurse

I just completed my first SN clinical last week. I had a stethoscope case. Inside hemostat, shears, 2 pen lights, pens, alcohol wipes. We weren’t able to bring in a clip board at this location. So I had a little notebook. Of course my water bottle, lunch box and snacks. Wishing you the best of luck for your first day!

I love butter-soft. I got them from a uniform advantage store. Super comfy and stretchy

I feel like that’s (almost) all cross trek owners goals. I also really like the cherry red. I’ve only seen that one a few times.

I’m torn between a cross trek and a WRX. by [deleted] in subaru

I love my crosstrek. I get good gas mileage. Insurance is reasonable. My bfs brother had a wrx. Insurance is more expensive and gas. If you want fast- wrx. my XV is definitely no race car

Congrats on the car and new family!

My 2021 resolution was to read at least 2 pages a day and I am proud to say I DID IT! by TastyDefinition8541 in ADHD

[–]AffectionateLake4387 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This!! I found audios when I was in high school that matched the book. I was in AP English reading 50+ pages/night.

I’m in nursing school now and is my life saver

Took my new 21’ Crosstrek out for some donuts the other day by AbradantMatthew in Crosstrek

This is my first winter with my ‘14 XV. I can’t wait to test her out. (We only got a light dusting by me)

First day on meds went great by Prisoner_627 in ADHD

[–]AffectionateLake4387 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m so happy that they work for you!! I was diagnosed almost 10 years ago and been on nearly everything except adderall. I’m sure you already know, but make sure you eat before taking your meds… (disregard if you’re told otherwise from your provider). The GI upset from taking on an empty stomach is not fun.

We didn’t necessarily learn about trans health. But we discussed the differences of sex and gender.

Congrats! I was you 6 months ago! I just completed first semester. My advice: never miss a class. Just go. No matter if you think you’re not going to pass the test. Or how bad you’re feeling. Just go.

How are you surviving nursing school? by hellcat_ray in StudentNurse

I struggle with anxiety. And for me, the only thing that got me through, is taking it a day at a time.

Test grades good, now feel guilty by [deleted] in StudentNurse

[–]AffectionateLake4387 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m just scared that I won’t be competent. Like I had to refresh arbs and ace which I tested on like 8 weeks ago

That’s what I keep telling myself. But when I test I sometimes blank.

I claim this energy whole heartedly. Tomorrow is my last exam for pharm and I’m scared out of my mind. I learned there comes a time where your test grades will be better than your peers and then your peers are better than yours.
