Review # 1 was written on 2009-08-19 00:00:00 Frank Dinatale Hmm there was a lot of stuff I read in here that I never even thought of. I'm going into nursing school this September with out any prior definite knowledge or expectation whatsoever. Somethings that Dunham noted that opened my eyes in the world of nursing school: - study tips - preparing a portfolio of skills and experiences - being aware of personal differences of patients, colleagues and staff - basic things to be aware of in preparation for clinicals - warnings of the nature/context of nursing in the "real world"- the shortage, other options of work outside of the hospital, the hospital environment itself (staff management vs. patient care, dealing with authorities, pay, work conditions etc.) One of the most important things I need to consider after reading this book is: - what I want out of a career; my priorities - preparing myself clinically by reading up skills, and more of what to expect - interviewing/researching different fields of nursing I think Kelli did a good job of telling us the straight (sometimes frightening) facts of what to expect, yet comforting us a lot by her humour and hope that we will all become good nurses and proud of our work.
