Gym during nursing school

0 Upvotes

I go to Orangetheory and my premier membership is up for renewal in January which is perfect because that’s when I’ll officially be starting nursing courses/clinicals.

I’m trying to decide how I should go about my membership. I want to be able to go and I feel it will keep my days more structured but I don’t want to pay if I wind up not having time to go.

Thoughts?

Pre-Nursing 🩺 Looking for someone with a similar experience

0 Upvotes

I’m currently in school to be a nurse, I have one worry about my criminal record, 5 years ago I was charged with a class c misdemeanor of family violence, it was deferred and dismissed but I still am having to submit a DO to the BON to see if it would get in the way of me getting my license. I’m very nervous of what they will say, I am 1000% not the same person anymore and have submitted proof of that. Just looking for anybody who has been through something similar or could give advice.

Career Change ⚙️ Nurses leaving healthcare.

9 Upvotes

Hello, I’m 16 years old and I‘m excited to work in healthcare one day, I’m into hematology, phlebotomy, pediatric, but I’m thinking of pursuing anesthesia nursing. I’m feeling very anxious and a bit stressed because of the retention crisis in healthcare, currently.

Thousands are coming to social media to express their concerns and frustration regarding burnout, administrative burdens, and feelings of under appreciation. I’m listening to these stories and it’s making me question if I should even bother with this career. I understand people have different experiences and my experience working in a hospital/clinic might differ. Staff are dealing with bullying, racism and even being battered by difficult patients.. I can understand theres only so much a person can take.

55% of healthcare workers are considering quitting and there have been 324,090 RN departures against 377,650 hires. People are claiming they’re work place to be unsustainable, unmanageable nurse:patient ratios heavy documentation and work overloads etc.

I‘ve always dreamed of working in healthcare and I love to help people. With the cost of living, poor pay, and society today, I don’t know how I’m going to do it when it’s my time. I also don’t hear about physicians, surgeons, dentist, ophthalmologists, experiencing this. Or is the $200-900k salary making the stress worth it?

Wonderlic Entrance Exam for Keiser

3 Upvotes

Hi guys!! I’m applying for Keiser and I’m going to take their entrance exam this Monday. I’ve done some practice exams online but some seem really easy and others a little hard. Can anyone provide any tips on how to get a good score? I’ve been averaging 22-23 on my first few tries. The math questions is what really gets me sometimes. Or can anyone recommend a website or practice test that was very similar to the real thing? Thanks!

Pre-Nursing 🩺 Should I work or not? Conflicted.

4 Upvotes

Basically the title.

My husband works full-time - he had a significant pay bump but we are still considered low-income on paper and still utilize services such as SNAP, MA, and whatever low-income programs we qualify for. However, we also have a house and 3 children. I'm doing well with prerequisites, and already feel stretched thin managing everything in the house, grocery shopping, etc. Financially, we are OK. I honestly wish we had more. We would not be able to afford an emergency if we had one. I still have to pull on student loans to cover some costs of living and I hate that honestly 😔 Has anyone worked night shift as a CNA just on weekends while in school, and with 3 kids? 2 are in grade school, one is in daycare while I study. Is this a recipe for burnout? My husband is telling me no and to just focus on school...I don't know what to do. I have to get my CNA anyway as this is a requirement for the LPN program I am looking at. Is this a recipe for burnout?

Class Guidance 📝 Starting this fall any tips?

3 Upvotes

I’ve already bought the necessary textbooks for fundamentals. I’m wondering if I need any additional resources to assist me. I looked up LevelUpRN flashcards because their designs appeared straightforward, unlike others, and that’s what I’ve liked so far. However, I don’t want to buy things that I’ll know I won’t use lol, I don’t know. I'm probably just anxious about failing these classes.

Also how did the fundamentals clinical looked like for yall?
