....and it has began

 I have made it through the first week of nursing school! I am a little overwhelmed and I am still trying to get in routine of studying. So far in lab I have learned how to take vital signs, assess a patient, make a hospital bed, give a patient bath, administer oxygen, restrain a patient, help transfer and assist patients. I also took a stool hemoccult in lab yesterday, it was chocolate pudding! :) Next week I have my first lab check off on head to toe assessments and I am learning how to do foley catheters!
