What's Inside my Nursing School Backpack...what you actually need for school!

[@tyrickasaurus]

I would love more nursing content! Maybe like study routines, a day in the life, etc. I’m a direct entry masters nursing student in my final semester :) I’ll be working in the endoscopy lab after graduation and then I start a FNP program next spring! I love watching your videos and seeing all of the things you’re learning!!

[@KiaraMadisen]

Ahh you go girl! You're going to be an amazing FNP! I'll be sure to add those ideas to my video list thank you!

[@jenna9340]

As a pre-nursing student, I'd say a good planner that works for you is essential. I also like to keep a small notebook for quick things I need to write down.

[@christinarobinson4542]

I’ve been a nurse for over 15 years. I Had no idea what specialty I wanted to go into until the last half of my last semester. I initially thought I wanted to do peds or labor & delivery when I first started nursing school. I ended up doing post operative cardiac surgery after an amazing clinical experience in the cardiac surgical icu. Nursing is so awesome in the vast array of sub specialties that there are. There is a niche for everyone and sometimes you have to be patient until it reveals itself to you.

[@KiaraMadisen]

Thank you so so much for sharing this…why do I feel like I’m going to follow that same path as you…we shall see 👀

[@melodykulifaj]

My mom was convinced she would hate peds (my sisters and I were pretty young when she started and I think she just figured she was over being around kids all day). But turns out she loved it after her clinical rotation. A great clinical experience can be life changing!

[@erikajavier]

Tip for anyone that doesn’t like starting a blank page: get a notebook/pen combo that has a little bit of ghosting. Ghosting is where you can see the ink through the page a little bit but it’s not like bleeding through. It looks a little messy, but it helps me not freak out when I see a blank page lol. It’s actually helped me like studying a bit more because I feel like I’ve gotten more done.

In Germany our touniquets are much more easy to use, they have a plastic clasp and you tighten them just by pulling on the elastic, maybe you could find some of those on the Internet if you are interested - I also think they might be more comfortable for the patient because the elastic is thicker and it’s more of a fabricy kind of strap than pure rubber

Even in highschool some friends called me Office Depot because I always had enough pens and supplies. As far as pencils though 🤔 I think math was the last time I used pencils. All my notes were always in pen. And I switched from my laptop to an iPad mini in grad school because it was so much lighter to carry on my commute. A backup battery is a must for me.

Hi I recently found out I got on the alternative list/ waitlist and I will find out by August 1st if I get into the program or not.

[@SuperMusicM]

RN in Sweden with 3 years experience in cardio-thoracic/vascular surgery and NICU. Since august I’m back in school for my specialty; midwifery. L&D and woman’s healthcare is VERY different here in comprehension to the US. As a midwife I have the exclusive responsibility for normal pregnancy and birth, with doctors near by when needed. It’s so much fun and in January 2023 I’m graduating after a total of 4,5 years of studying (with 3 years of working in between degrees). What’s the view on multi resistant bacteria and staff hygiene in USA? Your guidelines are so much different then ours and I’m curious to know how you think about it as a student? In Sweden you change clothes provided by the hospital when coming there. Always short sleeved tops, hair up, no nail polish or acrylic nails etc, no watches or jewelry. Clothes go to wash at hospital after ended shift. Use of gloves only if risk for contact with body fluids and always single use-apron in thin plastic in contact with patients. This is so interesting since (as I understand) staff in North America use gloves a lot and the use of accessories and clothes differ very much. So, what’s your thoughts about all of this? Do you (as students, not individual persons) reflect about this stuff or is just normalized? Best regards,

Hey girl could you do a ski collection video or like what you’d suggest for a newbie :)

[@KiaraMadisen]

Ahh yes, this is still on my bucket-list! Stay tuned :)

Would you consider doing a video reacting to your first videos you made and posted on KZbin and how you progressed through the years?

[@KiaraMadisen]

Hahha those videos are so cringy but maybe, proud that they helped me along my KZbin journey!

@@KiaraMadisen Do you know who iJustine is? She did one of those videos. She had to laugh at herself how she thought her first KZbin vidoes were cringy. She ended up having a good time reacting to her old videos. I saw some of your old video and your videos got a lot better during the years. We learn how to improve on every video we make. Did any one influence on your style? Like a filmmaker? Example: I was influenced by Alfred Hitchcock and Orson Wells
