I am a nursing student from patchogue NY currently going to Siena College in upstate NY. I have just finished my first year of clinicals at the Belanger School of Nursing there I took foundations of nursing practice, concepts of the nursing profession, transitions of care across the continuum, and introduction to biophysical and psychological concepts. Here I learned vitals, ostomy care, emptying wound drains, mental status exams, neurological exams, specimen collection, emptying and measuring urine from a foley catheters, making beds, ambulating patients, feeding patients, therapeutic communication, how to work IV pumps, hanging minibags, taking out IV's, and subcutaneous injections.
