We entered our second block of 5 week classes with a whoosh. Today I had lecture and lab for Nursing Foundations. We discussed hygiene and bathing patients. In lab we learned 3 skills: hand washing, gowning up for infectious patients, and how to put on sterile gloves. I can tell that I'm really going to like this skills class. In between in the afternoon I had a meeting that was supposed to be an info session for clinicals - but they didn't have time to answer many of our questions and didn't really tell us anything new. Then I met with my group to review a presentation we're doing tomorrow.
I actually had school from 8 am until 5 pm, with just a 30 minute break between group work and lab. Then when I got home I studied madly for a pharm exam tomorrow (GI drugs, antimicrobials, antivirals) and put the finishing touches on our group presentation. This is the kind of work load I was expecting from this program, so I'm ready to handle it. Nevertheless, I'm quite tired and ready to fall into bed.
