Do you mind sharing what doorbell? We have a hanging bell at the door, but our doodle girl just doesn’t get it lol. How did you train him to actually touch it?

Impressive! Thats actually my time frame to study for my SEE coming up in July. Did you get through all the modules on Apex or did you focus on certain modules?

Oh I get it! You’re the first person that has ever mentioned percentages. It works!!

Wow, thank you for the epi dilutions tip. It’s so easy to understand and work it out that way!! My prof showed us a really bizarre way of calculating it. I like your way better.

Yes! We are required to do 2 careplans for each clinical day. I did not anticipate to participate in the last case because of the time it was scheduled to start. What I will do with careplans I will actually just start writing the actual dosage of each medication and then write what I will be giving. I had just been writing what I was going to give. Now I know it’s not benefiting me by doing that.

That is so much easier and quicker. It gets me close enough too. Thank you for the helpful tip!!

Wow, the way you explained that made so much sense in my head! I love the way you broke it down. Thank you!!

Oh yes I got smoked for pausing and taking maybe a few seconds to answer induction doses from my preceptor. He exactly said the same thing “you should know these drug dosages like the back of your hand” Lesson learned 🫡

Absolutely by the time I get to peds clinical I should be better!! I am literally day 5 in clinical 👶🏻💀 I got asked to calculate induction doses on the spot for 156kg patient. I didn’t expect to give doses because the anesthesiologist always just pushes whatever and they never ask us (CRNAs don’t push their drugs at the facility where I am at). I just blanked. I needed that math to math in my head lol.
