Entry 9

This is my last blog for the class Fundamentals of Nursing.

My instructor asked that we give her criticisms on the class:

I absolutely loved Ms. Damelio's teaching style and attitude towards nursing. She is so inspiring. She also is very patient and meticulous which are two traits I hope to strengthen in myself during this program in order to improve my professional career. I am super excited that I was lucky enough to land her as a lab and clinical instructor for my new class Nursing Concepts 1 starting next week?

Never once during Fundamentals of Nursing did I feel bored or that what we were learning was not going to be useful. I was actually amazed with everything I was learning so soon into the program. I liked that we covered a lot of the basics right off the bat. Some of the things I wasn't sure I liked about the class was the 3 hour long lecture and 4 hour long labs. We did have breaks which helped but I might have preferred several shorter classes.

Other than that I thought the class had a good balance of independent study and group discussion and learning. I also think that it is a good way to ease into the program and indicates how the program will progress. I'm overjoyed that I have made it through my first course in nursing school. Nursing Concepts and Pharmacology are going to be a real challenge and honestly I am terrified...in a good way :)

Thank you so much for being such a great teacher Ms. Damelio :) You made everything interesting, were incredibly organized, knew your stuff and I don't see anything you can change to improve :)
