N4 Graduates
For those of you who just passed N4, congratulations!!!!!!!
Would you please post here any tips and advice to pass on to future N4 students of M. Romena's class.
I have heard that reading the text book, text study guide, chapter tests and possibly some of Lippincot's Q and As were helpful. Is there anything else that you used that helped?
We tutors need to know how to help the next classes.

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.

and yet another...
FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) -- A former nurse was sentenced Thursday to life in prison on charges she killed 10 hospital patients with drug injections because she found them too demanding.
Vickie Dawn Jackson, 40, pleaded no contest on Wednesday and was sentenced after prosecutors presented their evidence to a judge.
Investigators believe Jackson injected the patients through their intravenous lines with a drug normally used to temporarily stop breathing when doctors insert a breathing tube.
FBI agent David Burns testified that the patients had been hospitalized for minor ailments -- including a foot sore, diarrhea or dementia -- and were about to be released.
"In general, they were the kind of patients who needed more care," Burns said at the sentencing. "I think that's probably why. They're verbose. They want this. They're thirsty. It seemed to make her angry."
Authorities became suspicious after nearly two dozen deaths were reported at Nocona General Hospital in late 2000 and early 2001, a stretch of time when the hospital should have seen only five to 10 deaths.
Authorities discovered at least 20 vials of the drug were missing. And officers searching garbage at Jackson's home found a syringe that contained traces of it, Burns said.
Jackson's attorney, Bruce Martin, said Jackson maintained her innocence and pleaded no contest to avoid a trial so her daughter would not be called to testify.
In a statement issued through her attorney, Jackson said she was "sympathetic to the families of the deceased" and "acutely aware that closure for them is necessary, if, indeed, closure can ever come for them."
Prosecutors did not seek the death penalty, meaning Jackson would have been sentenced to life in prison if convicted by a jury.
The case was moved from Nocona, 90 miles northwest of Dallas, to this West Texas town because of publicity surrounding the deaths.
