Some Helps for N7
Ok you N7 SNs. I am going to put Christine Moles on the spot (sorry) and give her 4 CD copies of N7 helps to burn and pass around. There is lots of misc. help, samples, and audio for your perusal. Collected from various sources.

I also recommend that you check out this site!
Critical Care Tutorials
These tutorials are short and sweet and break all of the difficult concepts of N7 into easy to understand packets.
I read the respiratory section the night before our test and scored really high. (hint, hint)
Do yourself a favor and check it out!

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.

Face lift for the test bank

Face lift for the test bank

The Test Bank is currently under construction to clean up the appearance and to organize it better. You are still able to use it. Keep watching for changes and please bear with me. Thanks!

TEST BANK

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.

Hello All,

Hey guys with the digital cameras!! Please help me start gathering lots of pictures for our graduation slide show presentation! It is not too early to start....we need some of the early times in our show! Thank you all!!

What a beautiful day we had today at Paramount's Great America! The weather wasn't too hot, or too cold...we were all able to enjoy the water rides, as well as the coasters! Katheryn and her daughter shot Chuck and his family with the water sprayers, they got pretty soaked! Tim and his family ended up right behind our boat, and they ended up soaking wet too! Julie Kay looked pretty in her hat, and her family was as sweet as she is!! Bonnie, Debbie and Michelle from the semester ahead of us came, and had a fun time too! This is just some of the happy memories of today....There were lots of pictures taken, which will be used in our slide show come graduation! There were lots a kids, lotsa famalies...and lots and lots of fun had! Thank you to everyone for coming, we needed a day out to laugh and have fun..and that we did! See you all at the next outing!
