I have good news, I am actually accomplishing things! I have been learning a lot about pharmacology and diseases and it has been really fun. I have also started to learn how to do some injections and everything involved in the whole process. I wasn't planning to do injections so soon, but it has ended up being easier to learn the pharmacology along with my injections so I can understand more about both. Subcutaneous injections simulation I have something to admit, learning the Greek and Latin roots is going to help me a lot! Sitting in the lectures, I am able to figure out what some words mean before most of the nursing students do. I never realized how many words I can figure out by using the roots until I sat in the lectures. One word I figured out was tachycardia which is a fast heat rate. I felt very accomplished knowing that I could figure out those words without having to read them in a textbook. Ampule used for some medication.  I have been learning subcutaneous

This week I been learning so much! I ended up doing a Career Pathway this semester at MCC where I can sit in the nursing classes and skills labs. The first classes I went to were really interesting and they have made me really excited to learn more about this career. Everyone in the program is really nice and helpful towards me and it is nice to make some friends in the nursing program. My first lecture I attended was Pharmacology. I now have the book to keep up with the lectures and I have enjoyed looking through the book. I have read trough the chapter about the different injections and I now have an idea as to what I will be doing. Along with the text book I have a study guide so I can check to see how well I am learning. I have been looking at the math involved with medicine and I have come to realize that much of the math is the same as the math I have learned in chemistry. I think that this will make the learning process much easier for me since I have done the same kind of

Welcome back to my blog! This time around I decided to do something related to my future career, so I decided to learn some nursing skills and gain some medical terminology. Some of the skills I will be learning will include simple patient care, giving injections, starting an IV, and possibly delivering a baby. This will be done by using the medical simulations at Miles Community College. I will be learning the medical terminology by using books from the college and online resources. I will also be sitting in some of the college classes, so I hope to be able to learn more by being there. My Shark Tank Pitch was kind of frustrating for me, because I was in a car headed back home from Denver and I had to make a slideshow on my phone. It wasn't too bad until I realized that the service in Wyoming was a little off and on for about two hours. Finally I was able to have enough service to finish my slideshow, I just couldn't add any pictures. When I got home that night I added
