IV Calculations

I found a good site to practice all types of medication calculations.

You can choose the section that you need help in or you can do practice questions, which provide all types of problems.

TEA baskets

Please have the TEA baskets completed by December 6th. I should be able to fit them into my car if you bring them to lecture, if not, we can make other arrangements. None of us want to think about the TEA during our break, so I would like to collect them before we begin break.

Thanks!

Nursing Student Success Made Incredibly Easy

We have all enjoyed our Nursing Student Success Made Incredibly Easy Books that NSSP provided us at the beginning of the semester. We are all welcome to keep these books for future use, but if you'd like to give your book to a future 1st semester student, you may turn your book in to Kim Thompson. Before turning them in, put a sticky in your book and tell the next recipient what the most useful part of the book was for you! :)

Cultural posters......

We have chosen a winner out of the posters and we will be announcing it next thursday after your class. Mr. Trout would like to keep your posters for the culinary arts department when you are done with your oral presentations. If you guys can post a response on when they are due I will make sure that I am there to get them. Thank you again for participating and I hope that all of you learned something about diabetes during this project.

Count Down to the TEA


Many more ppl signed up than anticipated for the TEA. We had a total of 26 ppl for set up, and I think we'll only need about 15 total (including those who will be picking things up for me). Please email me if you can switch from set up to clean up, because we only had 10 ppl there.

Set up ppl can get there at 10am, not 8am. The tables and chairs should be set up for us when we get there.

I will also need either ice chests or big plastic buckets for the soda. It would be a good idea to have towels or something like that for under the sodas just in case they leak (somebody please remind me of this on the day of if I forget!!).

SET UP:Debbie Mehrer & Susan Keller: You two should probably go together to Costco, because I will be ordering around 6-7 sandwich platters and i will ask them to put together a platter of like 120 or so cookies, so it will be probably a 3 person job. If you have someone in mind to help you, please get in touch with them, and let me know who it is so I don't give them additional work! Make sure you have room in the back of your car. As far as ice goes, I am planning on having about 120 drinks (coke, dcoke, sprite and water), please make a judgment call on how much ice we need. Costco opens at 11(!!), but I will prepay for the platters, and I will be asking if they will allow you to enter during business member hours (10am) to pick up the platters.I will be in touch with you about that. If not, just be there at 11am to pick up.

Kristin Morone and Andreya Hooks: Kristin, you can let us know where each of us will be most helpful. Andreya, I will need you to pick up the balloons the day of. I will be ordering these from Party 2000 off of Pacific and robinhood behind Chili's. I think I will be getting about 12. They put them in a bag for you, so it makes transport much easier.

Caroline Ames: Can you please make sure all tables are labeled with the clinical group name? Kim thompson should be getting these to us, but if not, we can make some prior to setting up.

You may leave once set up is through. Depending on how many ppl we have, this could be done fairly quickly. I will try to remember to bring bagels for all of you in order to preserve our sandwiches! Someone may need to call me to remind me of this!!!

DURING (This group will not have much in the way of tasks, except when we are doing the raffle, Melanie will be announcing the raffle ticket numbers and we will need ppl to hand out the prizes. Make sure ALL OF YOU WEAR YOUR SCRUBS so that the first semester students can recognize who we are.)

Also,Melanie Payne: Speaker. I will be putting together the order of who will speak when. You will get things started. If you can remember the speaker from last time, she was very upbeat, motivating, set expectations for the semester, I'm sure you'll know what to say. I will also have you introduce everyone. I have to go through my list of speakers, but I will be asking Mary Neville, Kim Thompson, Lynne Swanson, Danielle Mathias and a 4th semester student. If anyone knows of someone, please let me know. I will be asking Danielle if she has any suggestions since she is going to be a 4th semester student.

Christine Shipman: set up next sem blog/blog sign up sheet. To keep the line of students moving, you may want to have 2 others at the table with you to help get students signed up.

CLEAN UP:
Kristin, please bring the boxes that the decorations were shipped in, because we will keep the centerpieces and anything else that is reusable for any future semesters to use.
