Anyone in the room need their vitals checked?


Hello readers! Last week was a short week but one of the toughest ones. Thank god it is now DONE! My week started off with a midterm that I was told to study four chapters which seemed like the entire book! And trust me this book is over 1000 pages! Then as the week came to an end, I was smacked in the face with SPOT testing, and this is when I go and check my partner’s vital signs. Your vital signs consist of pulse, blood pressure, temperature and breathing rate. This was done while having a teacher breathing down my neck and a timer ticking away right next to me. And in the end my partner and I both passed!!! Leading up to a good way to start the weekend!!!
P.S Does anyone need their vitals checked?

The Beginning of Natasha’s Nursing Adventure

Hello other members of the nursing community, instructors and general members of the public. Welcome to the many adventures of my nursing journey!!!! My name is Natasha and I am currently attending the University of Ontario Institute of Technology, this is a strong technological school!!!! So far my nursing student career has been quite challenging, these challenges will help me become the nurse that I want to be at the end of my four years!!! This idea of blogging, seem like a new and exciting thing since I am attending a technologically advanced school, it also is a good way for me to reflect and learn from all the experiences that I am going through. I am looking forward to reading other nursing student experiences!!!!
