Welcome to the forums, visit often.

Hello Daniel,

I have a sneaking suspicion the answers to your questions are either in your textbook or have been covered in class. Kindly don't ask us to do your homework for you.

Nursing school is hard work, and it is by doing that hard work that you become an excellent nurse capable of giving quality care.

We're pretty good about answering questions on this forum, however you'll need to do a good deal of studying for yourself.

Daniel. These questions are very simple. I would love to be supportive of you, and will help you out if you need it, but in the time you spent posting this question you surely could have found the answer. These are no brainers man! STUDY! You will HAVE TO LEARN ALL OF THIS STUFF eventually to EVER make it so learn it the first time around, BEFORE the test because you are going to need it from here on out...

Yeah man you need to study your work because during the test this nurses forum is not going to be there to answer your questions.Trust me im not a nurse but a i have an Associates degree in business administarion and praticall y find all the easy ways out for my assignment and also crammed my brain the night before all of my test and now that im finish i cannot remember anything that i have been taught....i'll have to go back to my books. Im starting nursing this year august though bcuz that is what i always wanted to do but i will never make that same mistake again because soon people lives are going to be in my hands and i cannot mess around with that......study man...just some advice!!
