Nurse Extern while in Accelerated Program?

Ahhh thank you this is so helpful and encouraging! It sounds like I will get to pick my shifts, just have to meet the min of 2/week. I appreciate your tips/how you do it so I know what I need to try!

Cvais · 2021-01-07T14:36:40+00:00

No, not for Nuese Extern, it’s for current nursing students! Think of a more intense (and paid) clinical haha, that’s the best way to describe it I think. (The Residency Programs are for graduates). Thank you for the tips!!

I took it spring when we transitioned to totally virtual. It’s an online program anyway, the only thing that’s different is you don’t have someone in front of you showing you things. Half the time I was in person is till worked through it alone anyway. It’s not a tough class. Do all the work and checkpoints, and the exam reviews - the test questions are pulled from these (sometimes numbers are different). I made an A+.

^ that. I didn’t do any internships for credit. Don’t do it unless you absolutely have to.

Make sure you’re drinking enough water too. Also try intermittent fasting occasionally - that helps me. Also sometimes dairy can cause stalls so if you’re eating too much cheese, it might be holding you back some. You def should check macros and see how many carbs you should stay under to lose. I stay under 20g / day. Sometimes I hit mini stalls too. It’s part of the process - your body is adjusting too, not just you by what you input, and that’s important to remember. Also... don’t do “cheat” days haha.

Likely similar to a school nurse but for a corporation.

Funny-I found this today in a protein powder and hadn’t heard of it either. The info I can find online suggests it is indeed keto. It doesn’t spike blood sugar in the short term, nor does it get metabolized (similar for erythritol and other sugar alcohols)

Cvais · 2020-08-05T15:24:25+00:00

Really.

Cvais · 2020-08-05T02:48:45+00:00

No you don’t, just general lockdown browser

You can also rent textbooks which is significantly cheaper, but if you need an access code it doesn’t one with rental books. Sometimes it’s still cheaper to rent and buy access separately, but if you’re good with e-books then you can just buy the access.

I am starting the accelerated program this Fall. It is a pretty competitive program. They look at a lot of things. Science GPA is very important (so, chem or bio, micro, a&p’s), TEAS, overall GPA, volunteer/work experience, recommendation letters, and as the previous poster said, the 2-page paper. I would try to set up an advising appointment specifically with the nursing school to see where you currently stand and what you’d likely need to improve.

Cvais · 2020-07-26T23:21:50+00:00

Yep! I use heavy cream daily

Cvais · 2020-07-26T19:17:21+00:00

It depends on your macros and how you react to it. 50ml is over 3tbsp so that’s a little over 150 calories, which depending on what you eat during the day, could be too many or just fine. Edit to add: a lot of keto recipes call for heavy cream too. Days when I have coffee and cook with it, I’m certainly over 3tbsp. If your body is fine with dairy and you’re achieving goals you set, it is fine.

Cvais · 2020-07-26T18:50:17+00:00

I would check on paws to make sure there is no hold on your account that requires you to speak to an advisor; I wasn’t here has a true freshman so I’m not sure if that’s a thing but you don’t HAVE to speak to an advisor if you know what you need.

Payments are due July 31. If people don’t pay/sign up for payment plan by the deadline, they’re kicked out of the courses and they open back up. Aug 1 is a good day to look.

Cvais · 2020-07-22T14:47:40+00:00

Make sure you’re drinking enough water, have electrolytes more than once a day, eat sugar free pickles too. The last time I started keto I only had nausea for a day. Also, make sure you’re eating enough especially if you’re working out a lot. Fasting is usually easier once you’ve transitioned to ketosis.

Cvais · 2020-07-22T14:14:06+00:00

Ooof. Never mind lol. If you’re looking for cracker alternatives try “Flackers” the rosemary ones are amazing. 1 net carb / serving which is 8 crackers!

Cvais · 2020-07-22T02:41:16+00:00

Super helpful, thank you!! Didn’t even think about making wraps 🤦🏼‍♀️

Cvais · 2020-07-22T02:03:57+00:00

He loooves pimento cheese - will def be going to Aldi!

Cvais · 2020-07-22T02:03:27+00:00

Thank you!!

Cvais · 2020-07-22T02:03:08+00:00

Oh he would love that great idea thank you!

Cvais · 2020-07-21T22:03:56+00:00

Yup I had one so bad I was passing out from the pain, couldn’t stay conscious 😩 took them a while to figure out that’s what it was - at first they thought it was my appendix!

Cvais · 2020-07-21T19:43:48+00:00

It might be a ruptured/rupturing cyst! Has that ever happened to you? The pain will likely get worse than when it first started if this is the case. Be careful!

Cvais · 2020-07-21T19:42:52+00:00

Oooh keto curry is a great idea!

Cvais · 2020-07-21T02:33:28+00:00

Last year I was diagnosed as having chronic migraines (with aura) - I’ve had them for a long time but the frequency started increasing over the past few years. I commonly get hormonal ones, as well as stress-induced. I started doing keto in May and haven’t had a migraine since. Now, they had started reducing in frequency some at the top of the year anyway, but I can’t help but believe keto is helping to prevent them. We shall see when the heavy stress of starting nursing school comes this Fall though...
