Spring time at UVA!

Hello all!

Sorry about the absence on the blog. Sometimes it seems that between clinicals, nursing exams, and practicing for our head-to-toe final assessment there is little time to spare! But do not worry, it's all manageable if you sleep, eat well, and take care of each other.

While nurses don't live in dorms together you can be assured you will see your class plenty! As the Spring weather has hit, walk by either of the nursing school buildings and you will certainly see a bunch of nurses outside chatting in the grass together. While we are all beginning to think about exams, a few last projects are due including our clinical group presentation where we present two of our patients to the class and explain how what we've learned in the classroom connects to our hospital experiences!

Finally, the 2nd year nursing class has welcomed our newest internal transfers! These students have worked hard to transfer out of the College of Arts and Sciences and into the School of Nursing! They will be taking summer courses to "catch-up" to the second year nurses and they will be a wonderful addition to the class of 2013!

  1. What makes children so special? Why do you need to have so much specialized training? The simple truth is that children are not as developed as adults, and in fact their bodies are developing all the time. With that being the case, a good pediatric nurse will be quite familiar with all of the child's nuances, bodily functions, and any changes that could affect the outcome of treatment.
