Question

 

A) Knowing what's best for my patient will be the most difficult concept throughout my nursing school career. Converting over to the metric system will conceptually take time to get used to since America is on their own system (customary system) in life but then medicine follows the metric system like the rest of the world. The values are easier to memorize as it is by the power of ten but I still need to really learn those pre- and suffixes. Stoichiometry and balancing equations was the easiest concept.  I have sectioned out a file to allow me to look back at some information from class when going through classes like Pharm. During lower stress weeks, I'd try to break down the medications and look at their chemical products and reactions so that I do not lose the skills and understanding. Constantly giving attention to how various medications work for some and not others based on underlying health issues, age and even their environment will be most interesting.

B)There are lots of parts of Chemistry that I find confusing, one area I find confusing would be titration and the calculations because of all the steps that has to be done and it confuses me. I think that throughout my degree program I will practice it enough that I will get the hang of it. I could also find practice questions that I could work on to help me understand it more and more. Although chemistry can be confusing the concepts will be very useful in my nursing career.

Answer 1

A) I agree the statement because , as a nursing school students the most important difficult thing is to understand the drug dosage and calculation.In healthcare the most important thing is medication.As a nurse ,nurse should know about the each medication,it's dosage,it's chemical formula and other related information about the drug .All nurses are developing their skills through make use of their pharm classes and also through clinics. Medication calculation skills also make it possible to correctly interpret the instructions written by a physician or prescriber . The skill allow the nurses to monitor a patient for possible side effects and make decisions is continuing the medication in case of severe reaction.As a nursing student try to work hard and giving attention to how various medication works and make use of your available teacher and your pharm classes.

B) I agree this statement, nursing student needs to have a good knowledge of chemistry because it deals with organic matter and it's reaction to different kind of chemicals. Chemistry is very confusing,so in order to attain a good skill ,make practice more ,it could be better that practice questions that will help you to understand it more . So this make your chemistry and calculation much more easier.
