Hotels

Hi, I took it upon myself to sign up for a "hotels.com" kind of service and have received bids from several hotels. Currently the least expensive is Days Inn on Lombard Street. They are offering $69.00+tax per night on weekdays with up to 4 people per room.....(uh..that's about $20 a night if you have 4 people)....I have requested 10 rooms on this site and at Days Inn there is no deposit and we are not responsible for any unused rooms in the block. I've emailed the Days Inn on Sloat street (the one Kristine mentioned) to see if they will price-match the one on Lombard because it is a lot closer. (I have no idea about areas of SF and which ones are "shady" or not) There are about 15 other bids from other hotels at the moment. I would be happy to make arrangements for any number of people who would like me to--the whole group if need be. Any comments? Any suggestions? Anyone interested?

NCLEX Review

Just for info, there is another hotel option for the SF review. Days Inn at the Beach. 5 min drive from campus, resonable rates.

The Ocean Park Motel

Hi guys, I emailed the Ocean Park Motel to see what type of a discount they would give and he sent me back this nice email and I thought I'd pass it along.

Dear Robyn,

Thank you for your interest in the Ocean Park. Beginning June 3rd, we have a variety of rooms available. For the nurseing review, we are offering one queen for $90.00 plus tax, two queens for $135.00 plus tax and three queens for $165.00 plus tax. All our rooms are non-smoking and include a private bathroom with shower, color cable TV with HBO, fresh coffee service, free wireless and phone service, and free off-street parking. Rooms with two or more beds also include micro wave and fridge.

The Ocean Park is a lovely, family-style motel with two large gardens, a small children’s playground, and an outdoor jacuzzi for our guests. We are located in a quiet, very safe residential neighborhood south of Golden Gate Park, one block from the zoo and the ocean. A variety of excellent restaurants are a few minutes’ drive away, and a breakfast diner is just around the corner.

This is the very first motel built in San Francisco, in 1936. It opened just one month before the Golden Gate Bridge, in what was then the recreational area of the City — when Fisherman’s Wharf was still filled with fishing boats! It has a unique Art-Deco styling, and it has been in our family for more than thirty years. With twenty-four rooms and suites, the Ocean Park is ideal for families who welcome our quiet, garden surroundings and outdoor hot tub after the excitement of downtown attractions. About twenty minutes from the airport, downtown, or Fisherman’s Wharf, we have public transportation at our door, direct to downtown.

For reservations please call us directly at 415-566-7020. Alternatively, you could send a fax to 415-665-8959. We ask for a credit card number, including the expiration date and the cardholder’s name, billing address and phone number. Our cancellation policy is 48 hours notice. With a credit card guarantee, we will hold the room for you all night long, no matter when you arrive.

We look forward to hearing from you soon.

Yours sincerely,
Marc Duffett

NCLEX Nursing Review at SFSU
I spoke on the phone with Sally Lagerquist, RN, MS who is the author/editor of Davis' NCLEX-RN Success, 2e book. She and various other nursing educators will be presenting a Nursing Review 4 day, 30 hour course on June 4, 5, 6 & 7, 2007, which will be hosted by SFSU Nursing in Knuth Hall SFSU. There is nearby motel/Inn discounts for nursing students if you tell them you are attending the Nursing Review.M. Lagerquist went on in great detail about the 99% passing success rate of this course and the various unique and funny styles used by the nursing educators to get the info across to us and into our (sometimes stubborn) heads. There will be lots of practice questions. This review is not about us reading books, but understanding the concepts and test skills and strategies to pass with flying colors. We will be given outlines for everything that is covered. No notes need to be taken.
The price is normally $275 per person. With a group of 10, the price will be $200 per person. After that the price is $275 per person regardless of group size. The price after 3/13/07 is $295. Then it goes up to $320 after 5/1/07.You can download the registration application.
Guys I really want all of us to go because I think it’s a fun way to end our class. After all we started together, let’s finish together. Everyone that I’ve talked to that attended this review class and have taken the boards have all passed.
Please post here or talk to me and let me know if anyone is interested.
If you want to check it out online, the address is,review for nurses.com
This site also offers unlimited online practice questions for 4 weeks for $89.99.

Hey Guys,
I was thinking we should all try to wear the same scrubs for pinning so that we look “uniform” and I found some nice looking, reasonably priced scrubs at A1 scrubs .com. Here are the links, we can talk about it next class session and see if we all agree. The top is $20 and the pants are $17.

Hi guys...I have some information for you about the Delta College NCLEX review course.

It will begin on Monday, June 11th and end on Friday June 22nd. There will be 40 hours of classroom time, and 2 hours of computer testing. The course is free to all students who qualify for the student success program. All students are required to pay the enrollment fee, and once everything is completed, the grant will reimburse the students.

Thanks,

Christine

Hi everyone. I have asked for some advice regarding how we should go about chosing our speakers for our pinning. Upon great reflection, I feel that the most appropriate and fair way to go about it is like this....

A sign up sheet will go out next class session. If you are interested in speaking, place your name unto the area of interest. You will be asked to give a small presentation to our group, telling us why you would like this oppurtunity. Soon after, these names will go onto a voting paper the following week, and the speaker will be chosen through democratic representation of majority.

Does this sound fair to everyone? If you have any other suggestions, please let me know asap.

Thank you all...

Christine

5. Caps are $15.00 a piece, cash or money order. I will bring one on Monday for all to see.
6. Last but not least.........this is our final semester.

And looks like everyone of the class ahead of us that took their boards...all passed on 75 q's....they are RN's now!!!

NCLEX Watch

Hey you nursing seniors,
Keep your eyes on the NCLEX post on our blog if you want to get the low down on what it will be like. Kristine Cavanaugh took her test today and said that the format was just like the Davis NCLEX CD which is from Sally Lagerquist and the San Franciso Nursing Review, 4 day course that we just went to from the 9th to the 12th. I have heard this from other students who have taken their tests and passed. So get the Davis book and CD if you can and definitely go to the Review and practice session at the end of your semester.
See Christine Moles for more info.

New format

Hi guys,
I just converted our blog to a beta format. I got an email from Bonnie and she reminded me that we were the only ones that hadn't converted yet. With help from Bonnie and Debbie here we are. So when you all get an invite please accept or you might not be able to post on the blog.

Look through the clinical topics and pick the subject that you feel you need to know more about or want to take a practice test to see if you really understand.

Thank You

I want to say thanks for the thoughts, well wishes and prayers. Other than using occasional eye drops and needing to get my contact lens and glasses prescriptions changed the first of January, I am back in the seeing world and am very grateful for it.

Lessons learned
Nursing school can make you blind
Studying is overrated
Friends are priceless
My husband Dave is a darned good nurse

Bonnie

Hi everyone, if you have called or emailed Bonnie please do not think that she is just ignoring you. She has developed a bad inflammation of both her eyes and can’t see at all. She was seen in ER today instead of doing clinical. (A clinical experience of the bad kind.) She is on bed rest till the end of the week and WILL NOT be available by phone or email. If you need help with something, or have a question call me at (916) 600-7074 or email me at shadowphoenix56@sbcglobal.net. I will do my best to help you out. I do need to hear from Christine Moles!! Please be sensitive to Bonnie’s needs and not bother her at this time! Thank you.

The Student Nurse's Prayer

Dear Lord: I know we go through this every day but please give me the knowledge
as to why I actually wanted to go to nursing school.
Lord, give me the strength to make it through
those boring three hour lectures without falling asleep.
Lord, please give me the patience to make it through twelve hour clinicals
with instructors that can't just give you the right answer
and on the same note, give the nurses the ability to remember
what it was like to be a student and give us just a little more respect.
Lord, give me the endurance to read all the assigned readings
and be able to remember it when I am taking a test with four right answers.
Lord, give my family and friends the ability to realize
I really am on the edge of insanity.
Finally, Lord, give me the vision to see that one day I will be a real nurse
and I will never have to wear this ugly uniform again.

Morning Glory

ADVANCE Online’s favorite nurse-humorist, Elizabeth Bussey Sowdal, RN, returns with another hilarious look at life both on and off the clock.

By Elizabeth Bussey Sowdal, RN

When I was growing up, my father woke us up some mornings.
He would come into our rooms singing:
"Good morning to you, good morning to you, we’re all in our places with bright shining faces, oh what a good way to start a new day!"
Other days my mother would wake us up singing:
"Hey, what do you know, 'tis morning already, here comes the sun . . ."
What nice parents I had!
Well, until I turned 15 anyway. I don’t know what happened to them then. They got better again later, about the time I turned 20, I think. Guess they just had a bad spell for a few years.
Having been awakened in such a pleasant way every day of my formative years you will probably be pretty certain that I make sure my children start their days off in a similar way.
I would like for you to think so, in fact I encourage it.
Imagine, me, up, scrubbed, dressed in an I Love Lucy morning outfit carrying a tray into each of my children with something hot and sweet to drink and a bud vase with a daffodil festively bobbing its head along the way.
Go on thinking that.
Just don’t bet any large amounts of money on it.
Mornings around here are not unpleasant, depending on your tolerance for noise and hullabaloo, but they don’t start off with singing.
Here’s how it is typically, on a day I don’t work. Because when I do work I leave early and I have no idea how they get bathed and dressed and fed without me.
Both my husband and I are early risers. Typically I will have been up long enough in the morning to have become pretty deeply involved in some project before it is time to wake the kids up.
Then I will suddenly realize that it is ten minutes until 7 a.m. and we are late. I screech, “Why?!” because I usually don’t want to quit what I am doing.
So, instead of singing "Good morning to you” when I enter my children’s bedrooms, I usually shriek:
"Wake up! Feet on the floor! You’re late!"
I think this is a very effective way to wake the children up.
Not only does it rouse them, but it scares the pudding out of them and their little hearts pitty-pat from 60 beats a minute straight to a respectable 160 beats a minute.
This is bound to be good for their cardiovascular health. Plus they get a massive dose of good old vitamin A— as in adrenaline — right off the bat. This has the happy side effect of completely clearing their heads of any residual sleepiness. They are up, they are pumped and they are ready for battle.
Forget OJ. The double shot of fight or flight juice my kids get is a great way for them to start the day.
Not only are they wide awake and raring to go, but they are also in the right mind set for the great Bathroom Battle. We have an old house with nice big bedrooms and lots of sunshine and windows and a great big yard — and one shower.
We have tried to compensate for this with an enormous water heater, but you still don’t want to be the last guy in line.
Things are a little better now that the girls are gone most of the time. They took the art of make-up application to new heights, often taking upwards of 30 minutes to perfect the all natural look they preferred.
With them gone there is much more time available for the boys to do whatever it is they do in there that takes so long. I know for a fact that they are not spending all that time on their teeth.
Every day as they start to leave the house I kiss them and then I ask, "Did you brush your teeth?" Every single day they get the same shocked look on their faces.
"Teeth?! Do I have teeth? Am I supposed to, what was that word you used, brush them? Oh my! Whod’ve thunk?"
And then off they pound, up the stairs (which surely cannot survive too many more years of such violent use) to the one bathroom where they shove and elbow and insult each other, splash water and gargle noisily and, I am pretty sure, wet those brushes, give each other a conspiratorial wink and pound back down and out the door.
“Have a nice day!”

Elizabeth Bussey Sowdal works in the trauma ICU at Oklahoma City Medical Center.

Issues with burning the disk

N6-Hey there, I'm having issues with burning the disk. I have successfully burned a couple, but I don't know what the deal is. So, If you would like to borrow my disk and burn one yourself or if there is someone else out there who would be willing to burn it, please feel free. Sorry! I tried!

Some of the cardiac drugs

Hey I found a pretty decent site regarding some of this stuff. I really like things to be broken down easier than our books. Kinda like give me the meat without all the fluff.....

http://www.muhealth.org/~pharm204/cardiovascular_drugs.html

Hope it helps

Cher

Correction N6 people

I dont know what I was thinking--There is only 1 of the N7 disks, so I don't need 2 just 1. (don't mind me, I just work here & I'm having a nervous breakdown!)

N6 People

Hey there--I have the disks. If you would like a copy please email me at RobbyGirl1@mac.com and/or bring 2 disks to class on Monday (or whenever) and I'll burn them for you. :)

Critical Care Tutorial

Here are the Shock Key Points from the Critical Care Tutorials

1. Blood Pressure is Cardiac Output multiplied by Peripheral Resistance.

2. Cardiac Output is Heart Rate times Stroke Volume.

3. Hypotension is caused by either inadequate Cardiac Output or inadequate Peripheral Resistance

4. Heart Rate, Stroke Volume and Total Peripheral Resistance exist in dynamic equilibrium: these interactions maintain blood pressure. If one of the three becomes abnormal, the other two compensate. This represents the cardiovascular physiologic reserve.

5. Hypotension is an indication of 1) an abnormality of Heart Rate, Stroke Volume or Peripheral Resistance, & 2) failure of the others to compensate.

6. Shock is acute circulatory failure leading to inadequate tissue perfusion and end organ injury: it classified as being due to malfunction of 1) the Pump (cardiogenic), 2 ) the Tubing (distributive), or 3) the Fluid (hypovolemic).

7. The heart rate is a fundamental element of hypotension both in terms of cause (tachyarrhythmias / bradyarrhythmias) and compensation – hypotension should be accompanied by a tachycardia.

8. Low Stroke volume is caused by a problem with reception or a problem with ejection.

9. Problems with reception are: inadequate venous return or cardiac inflow obstruction.

10. Fluid loss is caused by either absolute hypovolemia (e.g. blood loss) or relative hypovolemia (“third spacing”).

11. Cardiac inflow obstruction is caused by a pericardial (tamponade) or intrathoracic process (PEEP), or a lesion within the heart itself (mitral stenosis).

12. Problems with ejection include pump failure (ischemia, overload, contusion, inflammation) and outflow obstruction (embolism, aortic stenosis, aortic crossclamps).

13. Shock caused by low peripheral vascular resistance is caused by loss of tonic vasoconstriction (vasoplegia), due to sympathectomy, anaphylaxis or sepsis, leading to relative hypovolemia.

14. Vasodilation associated with septic shock occurs due to increased synthesis of nitric oxide, activation of ATP-sensitive potassium channels in vascular smooth muscle, and deficiency of vasopressin.

BIG BIG OOPS !!!!!!!!

BIG BIG OOPS !!!!!!!!

I have been working on giving our test bank a face lift for the past few weeks. I have fixed all of the links, made titles for easy test link ID, rearranged the order and colors, etc.
but then...........
I got so excited and relieved to be finally finished that I accidentally hit the wrong key and deleted the whole bank out the Blog's existence.
Fortunatly, I have been keeping an updated copy on a word doc just in case (I know myself too well), but I do not know how to get it back to that exact moment in time to have all links to the bank still work. So I have reposted it in our January 2005 archives.
NEW TEST BANK
I have attempted to fix all of the recent links to the bank that I can find or have access to, but I can't fix all the links or the bookmarks that some of you may have made. Please let me know if you find any bad links.
I'm Sorry!
Have a nice day.

Attention to all blog administrators, please do not change the posting dates of any tests or quizes. If they are moved to another date or location the link in the Bank will no longer be valid.
I am checking all of the links right now and making the Links easier to read. This is my pre-school goal.

Very sad to see Mrs. Prieto retire!!! She was a super clinical instructor. I know the staff at SJGH will really miss her. Enjoy the pictures :)

Hello everybodyyyyyyy!!! For those of you going into N7 at St Joes...I have some things for you all! I work in SICU at St Joes and I put together some packets of daily documentation, lab results and the glucose "Portland Protocol". The latter, is difficult to get used to at first, the titration of insulin drips can seem complicated, but this protocol has worked very well for the ICU patients and once you get used to it...you will do really great with it. I have a Potassium supplement, and other familiar documents as well. I dont mind meeting with you guys to give you this paperwork and I could go over daily charting with you too...of course I am not an expert, so......DONT BLAME ME!! LOL...I would just like to offer my assistance with the paperwork and the charting to you guys..if you are interested, send me an email and we can meet up before school starts k? Take care..congrats everyone on a job well done this semester! We will all be "together again" on Friday!! :)

To all students...Today I was assigned to go to Family Ties recovery program, and although I learned alot, it was not a pleasant experience. This program is used to teach mothers and mothers to be, how to care for their children and live a functioning life style without drug or alcohol abuse. I learned that as of July 1st, the funding that supports this program will be cut thanks to our elected officials.
If you could help out in any way with donations, the facility will take anything. They are most needy of new born and infant clothing and supplies, although they could use anything such as adult clothing, childrens clothing, car seats, cribs, house hold items, kitchen utencils, and even baby formula.
After July 1st, it will cost the clients $85/day to belong to the program. For most of the clients that is near impossible since many are homeless and do not have jobs.
Please do what you can to help...any donation makes a difference!!!

All Nursing Students

Let’s come together to celebrate the end of another semester
The SNA will be hosting a Root Beer Float social on May 15th 2006 @ 1:00 in the Locke Lounge.


There will also be a free raffle for prizes in addition to the S.F. trip raffle

Hello again...hmmm guess who? :) I am posting something to share with you guys...you deserve to know that this very special recognition was recieved by me, but dedicated to all of us :) Below is a copy of my speech, I wanted to share with you all....
I would like to first thank the Academic Senate for the opportunity to receive this award today. Thank you to Shelba Durston who nominated me for this award. Thank you to the wonderful FCHS staff and my nursing instructors who have inspired my creativity, and have allowed me to express my thoughts into writing. Thank you to my husband, my son, my daughter and my sister, without you all, I am but a blank page.
I called the Academic Senate office last week, and was informed that I could speak today, here I find myself, for once searching for words to replace the thoughts within my head. In regards to my writing, I will share with you something one of my fellow classmates said to me the other day, William says to me, “ I admire it that you write so well, I wish that I could say it the way you do. Then write it, and get the emotions out of people that you do.” To this, I will respond by sharing with you all that the greatest compliment received as a writer, is when someone reads your writings, then shares with you their appreciation for saying exactly how they were feeling, but couldn’t find the words. I have been blessed with the talent to express how we all feel not just as nursing students, but as humans. The many trials and jubilations, sadness, joys, fears, happiness, hopelessness, heartaches and hope that accompany life, join me as well as I care for my family, friends and my patients. All of these things have been an amazing experiences thus far, and I look forward to the future allotting me more stories to share with everyone. It is with great honor I accept the lessons that my patients have taught me, in turn it is with honor that I accept recognition on behalf of them, and my fellow students…for it is their voices, I am but an interpreter for us all.
In closing I would like to share with you a quote, one that expresses the hope that I have for each of you, Ralph Waldo Emerson…"Do not go where the path may lead,
go instead where there is no path and leave a trail."
Thank you.

Summer is vast approaching..how incredible time is flying!! Before we know it, it will be....you got it... graduation day!!!! So keep an eye out in Sept/October of this year...we are putting together a "graduation committee"...we are in charge of our own graduation day guys...lets make it one to remember...many ideas are already on the table. I am very excited to tell you all that...the Atherton WILL be available..thank goodness! Thank you to Mary Neville...I threw a tissy fit when they said we couldnt use it, because of construction the month of our graduation :), so I am happy, and am sure you are all as well.

So...enjoy summer, come to Great America..there are still tickets available if you wanna come! Keep your eyes peeled for the grad planning team within the next 5-6 months!!!!

Julie Gornto....and others...here is the website for the summer work exp information. We do not have to re do the orientation, but all paperwork has to be turned in by June 9th. SJDC Internship/Work Experience Home Page

Tim, hey there...how many tickets did you want again? just leave the check with Julie ok? we are gonna have alot of fun!! ;)
