Almost Alumni

It's April!!!! I only need to make it 28 more days!! But, there is an extremely busy 4 weeks ahead. I was the clinical manager this week at clinical. That job involves making lunch assignments, getting reports on all the student patients, making patient rounds and recording reports. It was a difficult job, but it was nice to be able to help the other students with each of their patients. We had the neurological exam this week also. I am curious to see what my grade will be.

We started the student teaching projects in the nursing transition class today. The first group talked about alternative therapies that could be used by patients, aromatherapies, herbal supplements and reflexology. It was really interesting!! It is really important to know the side effects and actions of any "natural" supplements; they can cause severe problems like hypertension or liver failure. Even though they are not prescription drugs, some of their actions can be more severe. I definitely recommend that people try alternative therapies, as well as listening to the advice of medical professionals.

28 days! I can make it!
until next time =)
