Nursing Student 101

I know that you have so many mixed feelings about this nursing school journey..... On one hand you are super excited! On the other hand you are super nervous! But guess what that is completely normal!

I remember being in my first nursing class scared out of my mind after going over the syllabus. I did not know where to start.. Well I can help you with some of those new student jitters with giving your a few tips to successfully navigate nursings school.

1. Read your syllabus: I know, I know! You are probably thinking that it look like a bunch of gibberish but the syllabus is literally your road map for that course..... Instructors will always refer you back to reading your syllabus,

2. Always arrive to class/clinical on time: There is nothing worse than being on the instructors radar for being the late or disruptive student... Set your alarm the night before.... CHECK TO MAKE SURE IT IS SET!! CHARGE YOUR PHONE!!! There have been times that I had a student late due to not checking the alarm or not charging their phone....

3. Ask Questions: If you do not know then ask.. Remember you will never know if you do not ask....also more than likely others have the same question.

4. Remember that there are not any shortcuts: read the chapters and do the assigned work..

5. Remember WHY!!!!: Remember you started on this journey for a reason.... Sometimes you have to remind yourself why your chose this journey.....
