8-25-2010

                I'm sitting on the couch, just got home from dinner at Masa with my boyfriend and his friend. I can't believe it's already the third day into Nursing. We had lecture from 9 to 12 today and we learned about safety in the environment and in our immediate surroundings; we also learned about communication. I'm not gonna lie I'm kinda nervous about the whole communication with the paitents...I just hope I'll know what to say when it comes down to it. I think the first time I introduce myself to them will probably be the most nerve racking, but hopefully it'll be second nature after that.
              We had our first lab yesterday, surprisingly it flew by pretty quickly even though it was 4 hours long in the same classroom! We learned how to properly wash our hands-"Happy birthday song" or "ABC's" (minimum of 15 secs), put on our gowns and gloves and then how to put on sanitary gloves(more of a challenge than I thought!) Overall it's been a good first few days :)
