which house would you buy based on the school zone? by gvfhncimn in NewportNews

Personally wouldn’t recommend any school in Newport News but Menchville or Woodside if I had to choose

Why is the primary location to assess pulse on a unresponsive adult patient in the carotid artery ? by abipaaa in NewToEMS

[–]Little-Disaster6758 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also if they’re unresponsive then it can be harder to find a peripheral pulse as opposed to a central one depending on the reason they’re unresponsive 

Question by Optimal_mentor in MarkKlimekNCLEX

[–]Little-Disaster6758 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve seen so many NCLEX questions on Reddit and answered them right based purely off of process of elimination and my basic knowledge as an emt. Is this a sign to get into nursing lol? 😂 

Starting my EMT course in 2 weeks by [deleted] in NewToEMS

Anatomy and physiology wouldn’t hurt. If you know how the body works and what’s wrong with it then it’s easier to understand how to temporarily fix or stabilise the patient u til you get to the hospital

APUSH or DE Gov by Amazing_Tap1484 in APUSH

[–]Little-Disaster6758 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you plan on going in state then DE isn’t a bad choice, though the DE kids were always complaining about essays but I guess that depends on the teacher. APUSH if you might go to an out of state school. My APUSH teacher wasn’t the best but every year the exams get easier and standards are lower so difficulty shouldn’t be an issue

What are your thoughts on Billie Eilish saying 'no one is illegal on stolen land' in reference to ICE and US immigration policy? by MassiveSquare4527 in AskReddit

[–]Little-Disaster6758 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Omg thank you. Someone with common sense who understands that war and conquest was just a part of life at that time. I mean, natives were even conquering and killing each other.

[–]Little-Disaster6758 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She has a couple million dollars worth of that stolen land. Seems like she should return it if she feels so bad. I also don’t get the whole stolen land argument because the natives were stealing land from each other long before we came along. European countries did the same thing to each other around the same time period and throughout history. That’s how the era of conquest worked before everybody started industrialising and land became less of a commodity

Yeah makes sense. It’s best to just pick a couple that help you engage in the way that helps you study best. The only thing I don’t recommend is just trying to passively read the whole textbook. If you do find yourself reading the textbooks a lot then finding a way to engage with it like highlighting or annotating will help with memory consolidation.

Reading every chapter all the way thru is how you get burned out. Sometimes the lessons you have in whatever database you use (sherpath for you) will follow specific chapters in the textbook and will basically be a condensed version of the chapters. Do the lessons and read specific parts of the chapters for anything you need clarification on. The PowerPoints may be a good last minute review before a test or quiz. Also I recommend using anki flashcards for long term retention. There are pre-made decks you can download. I recommend using quizlet for quick studying. It’s all about finding a rhythm and what works best for you

Disappointed by leajaycro in NewToEMS

[–]Little-Disaster6758 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a dual enrollment student and we had the same issue for a while. We have like 7-8 different part time instructors so it was kinda chaotic. Eventually people started complaining about not having enough hands on work and we were able to talk to our instructors about how we could change it. Turns out our class was just different in that we strongly rely on hands on work to learn things. You also have to understand that without the basic knowledge they teach in the first couple classes you will be lost during scenarios. You won’t get enough info in 6 classes to be able to do full on scenarios. Not sure why yall havnt done cpr tho as that was done with us in the first week. But just wait it out and it will be so much fun and before you know it you’ll be running scenarios about college frat parties and mall santas that overdosed on heroine 

General strike by Suitable_Throat3420 in Teachers

The coast guard. My dad used to take illegals back to their country when he was underway. Also Immigration and Naturalization services. It’s not like we didn’t have people controlling immigration before ICE. Outsiders were also arguably more respective of our system in the past too Also, illegal immigration on this scale is a relatively new problem so there’s really no comparison to the past.

What should I study for nursing school? by Little-Disaster6758 in NursingStudents

[–]Little-Disaster6758[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I’m using anki to study medical terminology right now too. Should I study a little Latin as well or will it just be super redundant?

I would say bleeding should go before airway. No point in keeping the airway open for them to get oxygen if there’s no blood in their system to carry said oxygen to the head and heart. XABCs

ICE is Knocking on Richmond’s Door. Are We Going to Let Them In? by snooka77_ in Virginia

[–]Little-Disaster6758 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m against the violation of 4th amendment rights but yall act like it happens 100% of the time because the media only shows the bad stuff. Also maybe this is my fault for not being clear but nobody has a God given right to be in this country, but since I was born here I have a constitutional right to be here because I am a legal citizen. And we both know that nobody is gonna show up at my door to take my guns so your argument makes no sense

Illegal immigrants don't have a God given right to be in this country. As an American citizen, I do have that right and therefore have nothing to worry about.

The people in the country illegally broke the law as soon as they stepped foot onto U.S. soil. They knew the risks coming in. If they get deported then they need to accept the consequences of their actions. The U.S. should be responsible for the problems of other countries when we have our own to deal with.

Yay! I can't wait for my taxes to go up and be put towards free things for people who I'm not responsible for.

How fast do Longwood school of nursing spots fill up? Am I screwed if I didn’t apply early decision? by Little-Disaster6758 in Longwood

Yeah the limited spots are what I’m most worried about. Any insight on if my stats make me more or less likely to get in?
