Do u work while going to nursing school? I start rn school in fall and I want to know if its hard to work @ same time.

@mscheer0106 I do work. I pretty much make my own schedule so it works out great for me. Lots of students work. It's a challenge, but doable. you just have to work on time management (that's hard for me but getting better). Before I started nursing school I was always told not to work if I didn't have to. I think that's pretty good advice, at least for the first semester then you can better judge what you can and can't do. Some people don't have a choice and make it work! Congrats and Good Luck!

How do you get the app for the book?

[juliannehola]

@rokkerbaby1 1. Make sure your book is registered with thepoint (access code scratch off on the inside cover of the book) 2. Log in and click that book then click student resources. 3. Click Get the Q&A App (it should be second item from the top). This will take you straight to app store so you can download it.

@rokkerbaby1 Brunner & Suddarth's Textbook of Medical-Surgical Nursing, Twelfth Edition

@annietart That's so cool. I heard a rumor that we are going to concept maps, but it seems to take a while for things to actually go into effect.

[rokkerbaby1]

what Med surg book do you have?

[annietart]

@juliannehola I think they really embraced it because we don't get our patients until we're on the floor and we don't do care plans anymore. We do concept maps during our day about our patient's needs then present them during post conference. They really want us to learn how to be a nurse by acting like a floor nurse who gets her assignment that morning and thinking on our feet. So, it was probably out of necessity rather then our admin letting us have ipods on the floor.
