What is the blog all about

I’m Amy and I set up this blog to give our nursing class of 2009 at Durham Technical Community College a place to talk about issues pertaining to our pinning ceremony.  I have also found sites and other items of interest that I have added as links that might be helpful to other nursing students.  I got my inspiration from Dani of Tired Student Nurses.  Dani has an amazing website that has helped me through 2 years of nursing school.  Dani has since been forced to disassemble her web blog so I have copied some of her questions under “NCLEX style practice questions”.  I hope you find them as helpful as I did.  Thanks Dani!

If you want to be a nurse, know that nursing school will take a full time commitment.  It is not easy.  Of course, we will hold peoples’ lives in our hands when we get in the work force, so it should not be easy.  I’ll let you know if the rewards of becoming a nurse are worth the torture of nursing school.  I think they will be.  I do pray to God that if I ever become as non-compassionate as some of the nurses I have come in contact with while in school that he will lead me out of the profession.  I have also come across some of the most wonderful human beings I’ve ever met that truly embody what a nurse should be; please let me be like them.

If anybody has any links, quick notes, or NCLEX questions they think might be helpful to other nursing students, feel free to paste them in a comment and I will move them to the proper section.  I would also love some feedback on what else you think might be helpful.

  1. I just wanted to say thanks! I wish I would have found this when I started a year and a half ago! If I come across anything that would be helpful I will be sure to include it. I found your top 10 NS Dx and thought it was fantastic~ and how true! I did share it with one of my awesome nursing instructors and made sure to reference your site. 🙂 Keep up the good work, and I hope my prayers will be answered as well; to be a great nurse!

  5. Hi Amy, I am currently a nursing student in my 4th term and was looking for stuff on post partum assessment for a paper I am doing when I stumbled across your blog. It is amazing I have been sharing it with my fellow students because we have all been really struggling with Health Restoration and Reorganization and I really think all the quizes you have posted are going to be a vary valuable study tool for us. We have all been very stressed because our instructors told us they were very worried that quite a few of us were not going to make it through this term. I really feel that finding this site just might be the help we need to get to the end with our whole class still in tact.
    Thank you so much
    Stephanie

  6. Hang in there Stephanie! They told our class the same thing and I think we only had 1 to not pass. You can do it!!!

  8. I’m always asked about good and bad food, but even a spoon of butter can be right for your diet if you’re deficient in those nutrients.
    At the end of this post, you will be able to spot and smell a health food lie when you see it.
    First, let’s get one thing straight; health food amp vitamins, though they do improve your physical performance, are not steroids.

  9. Hi Amy, great blog! I found this youtube video helpful when I studied for Pediatric Safe Dosage calculations.

  10. Hi! I could have sworn I’ve been to this website before but after browsing through some of the post I realized
    it’s new to me. Nonetheless, I’m definitely glad I found it and I’ll be book-marking
    and checking back frequently!

  11. When it comes to companies providing custom content,
    consumers already see the value. And this is what the
    MSc in Marketing Analytics will help you achieve more effectively.

    A video will allow potential customers to attach a face to the product or services you are selling.

  12. Our Western decorations are very well imbedded to add a niche over others.
    Whatever your budget is, with the number of locations available online and
    off that offer pendant lighting you are sure to find something that appeals
    to your taste and remains within the budget allowed for the expenditure.
    So if you’re ready to jump onto the green revolution bandwagon, a great place to start is in the
    lighting department.

  14. Hi Amy, taking the NCLEX in 30 days what do you suggest? I graduated nursing school long ago.

  15. Amy, Can you email me? I can’t find your contact info and think I could help you get more value from your site. I can tell you aren’t active on it, but it looks like you still get a lot of traffic…

  16. Hi Amy,

    I’m impressed by the growth and success of amy47.com over the last decade. It’s a great resource for nursing students all over the country.

    Many publishers have been asking us about how the coronavirus is impacting the current publishing industry, so our team created a quick video on “How COVID-19 and the Global Economy are Affecting Ad Rates” that I wanted to share. Take a look and let me know what you think: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0j9Cv6UaUkg

    Digital ad budgets are usually the first things cut when the market drops, which is why it’s more important than ever to make sure your content and ad inventory is valuable to advertisers. The good news is that Ezoic’s machine learning systems are constantly monitoring both user behavior and ad markets and making adjustments to ad positions, sizes and densities. This means that Ezoic will automatically adapt your site to the changing conditions to maximize its performance.

    My calendar is starting to fill up, however, I am happy to make time this week to spend 30 minutes reviewing your site for areas of opportunity that you can capitalize on now. Please send me 3 potential time slots you are available as well as your #1 priority for amy47.com and I will make sure I get you on my schedule.

    All the best,
    Hannah
