NURSING SCHOOL ESSENTIALS AND MUST HAVES 2023!

[@Mariely1]

Preparing mentally for nursing school Jan 2024. A whole year from now but I’m not gunna underestimate how fast time will go. I love your nursing related content, very helpful!

[@ForeverYours0727]

Haha yes girl that's a good idea to start mentally preparing now! I would subscribe to youtube channels like Simple Nursing and RegisteredNurseRN to get familiar with the topics :)

[@blissfullymari3783]

Congratulations Kayleigh! It’s so nice seeing you succeed and reach your goals. It is so motivating. I’m 31 years old and my goal for this year is to go back to college and get a degree.

[@ForeverYours0727]

Thank you so much!! Good luck to you :)

Starting Nursing School this semester! Freaking out about all the money I’ll have to spend and knowing I don’t have it

[@rasha2583]

Can’t you get help from FAFSA? They helped me pay for many of my expenses

[@loveableladyj322]

It worth it tho

You don't have to buy a ton of things. See what they're going to supply vs what you need, and see what you have around. The best thing to do is use what you have if it's on the list and put your money and time into what you don't have and studying/being organized

[@taylorswegan6913]

Hope it's going well!!

[@inalamp8982]

Congratulations on getting your first choice gig! And thank you for this video. I’m starting a 14 month accelerated program mid May at 48 years old 😬 Excited and super nervous.

I remember that feeling of not having enough time to do anything else but school, it's tough but well worth it, keeping working hard, you can do it!! ❤

About the clipboard everyone is different and sees things differently. I love my clipboard, mine is smaller than yours and fits nicely inside of the hospital blue scrub jacket. It also has the cheat sheets. It protects from getting wet, one girl split water on her notebook and all her little notes got wet. The clipboard also is sturdy. I had an NP ask if she could borrow it for one second as a support for her paper. The clipboard may not be for you however I don’t have to worry about it going in the washing machine.

[@ayoitsfabian]

Hi hi 😊 I’m only a PCT but i enjoy watching your videos. I’ve seen you for like close 7-8 years!

Hi Kayleigh! I've followed you since you were with your Ex. You're an Inspiration, seeing you move on as Strong as you've done, then going onto Nursing school. Congratulations on your Accomplishments, you should be Proud you've persevered after a Major Break up. As for me, I was almost in a "Limbo" , lost after being with 1st boyfriend/fiance over 10 years. Now I'm heading back to school, I graduated during the Pandemic with an Associates Degree. But I Need Motivation to keep going, watching your videos have helped. Can you share what Motivates and keeps you focused, Especially when the going gets tough- when it's easy just to give up. And curious since you will be working probably long hours, what Makeup do you use to last all day without worrying about it. Glad your back

[@FREEandFITwithLISH]

Another great video, girlie! I liked how you shared the not so good items, too! I use those pens-they make them in so many cool colors😁 I loved your recommendations..my sis may need those shoes-THANK YOU!!!

Miss Catherina is obviously the best, i studied her Materials just in 5 days and I passed,I won’t tell you guys here on comment section how she did it. but will advise you contact her, work with her and see how she does her magic on student’s preparing for their coming exams. i was lucky to meet Miss Catherine only God knows I wouldn't have succeeded without her.

[@bajacalichick]

Hi Kayleigh ! Loved your video even tho I am not a nurse LOL... Also I wanted to mentioned, the air max Nikes are really comfortable ! the reason why you didn't find them comfortable It is because you got a kid shoe ! I have plenty of experience with shoes and I have used kids and women shoes and I know that that is a big difference, I have those shoes in black and white in women's and are super comfy , just thought on mentioning that to you, maybe you can return those and get the women size, just an idea :)

[@ForeverYours0727]

good to know haha makes much more sense!

[@kristenhills]

Will check them out!

[@Mariely1]

I have an underarm sweat issue too D; was my biggest insecurity in middle school and high school and even up to now. But I have learned how to “deal” with ur it. I use dial body soap for my underarms and panoxyl to wash away the bacteria. I consume chlorophyll in my water and I use glycolic acid with a cotton pad to wipe my underarms before I use deodorant. Then I moisturize with a gel cream to keep the underarm skin from drying. The best deodorants I have tried ( cause I swear I’ve tried all by now), are unseated deodorants. I use certain dri roll on, Mitchum roll on, and Mexican brand roll on deodorants! Those have worked best for me. I’m considering Botox cause I still sweat when I get anxious but I least I don’t stank anymore 😂lol.

[@Mariely1]

I used to wear pads and tissue in underarms when I was in middle/high school. You aren’t alone girly haha. It’s an embarrassing topic but hey, let’s trauma bond.

[@xoMsImperfect]

Congrats, Kayleigh! On everything. As a long-time viewer, it’s been beautiful to watch you flourish on your new journey of life. I’m in a similar situation to your previous relationship. I’m finding it hard to leave, but I know that I ultimately have to. I’ve been totally dependent on him for years, so I’ve had no income of my own. I need to get a job. I’m considering college. But first I need a job. I’ll have such a huge gap on my resume and I don’t have much experience in anything. Can you do a video on how to get back into the work force after not working a traditional job for such a long time? I feel helpless at times. I don’t have any friends, and I’m not super close to my family so I would hate to ask them for help. It doesn’t seem like you had trouble finding a job, but you aced all of your classes. I’m sure that helped. Idk Kayleigh, can you help a girl out? :(

[@diananess5094]

Hi! I’m working towards getting into nursing school, I had a question. We’re you required to take the HESI entrance exam before applying into nursing school or after you got accepted? also what strategies did you use for studying the HESI? Thank you so much and I wish you all the best in your endeavors as a Register Nurse!

[@ForeverYours0727]

Yes - it was called a TEAS exam! Had math, science, English etc on it. And the goal was to get above 80% to be really looked at for applications. And then I had to take a HESI exit exam to graduate and also be above a certain score. Good luck to you!

I’m nervous about starting nursing school fall of 2023. How bad was it? I’m not that smart. Congratulations on passing nursing school and getting a job. Was the exams hard within the program and how about the final exam?

[@ForeverYours0727]

It's definitely the hardest thing I've ever done in my life just to be honest with you but it's doable! You will have all the resources. You just have to be committed to studying it and really learning it (not memorizing). Every program is different but I found that the teachers and their styles of teaching didn't work for me in mine. It was 80% teaching myself the material and the rest is help from my amazing classmates. Exams are brutal and you will likely fail a few but it doesn't mean you won't pass in the end! The exams are only a certain percentage of your final grade. Always try to finish assignments early at the beginning of the semester so you have the rest of the semester to prepare for those exams. Just keep your head up, keep pushing through, and it will be over before you know it!

[@rachp2836]

@@ForeverYours0727 ❤thank you :). I’ll definitely use this advice though out the whole program and I hope it goes by very fast.

Hello, i am currently an ABSN student. I am starting my 2nd semester soon. What will you recommend on the way to study for medsurg and pharmacology?

[@ForeverYours0727]

I still struggle with pharm so can’t help you on that one lol 😂 For me experiencing patients who use certain meds helped me remember from clinicals and Practicum. But for medsurg it’s really about understanding how the body regulates itself. Once you get that part down everything clicks and makes sense. So rather than memorizing signs/symptoms for every disease or illness instead know the process of how and why things happen or work in the body and then you’ll be able to list off signs/symptoms automatically that would usually occur with that type of process. Hope that makes sense!
