    Yay for nurses! I'm in nursing school right now and graduate next fall. Being a CNA is so great and definitely prepares nurses for their career. I've been a CNA for 6 years on a cardiovascular unit. I got my CNA certification my senior year of high school. Great tips! Good luck!! 😊😊

      ***** My high school offered a CNA course that could be completed for seniors in high school. It lasted over a period of 4 months I believe.

    Great video! I graduate in December with my BSN and these tips were perfect for people who are just starting! Good luck with school, like you said take it day by day. In the end all the long nights and stressful weeks are worth it and the right people will be by your side the day you graduate.

    Chewing gum when you study, then chew the same type & flavor of gum when you test is helpful... Also there is something about cinnamon flavored gum/candies that help you remember. My psych teacher told us this and I tried it. May be some sort of placebo effect, but it worked for me lol! Thanks for the tips! Good luck with everything...

    • @shannamckinley9343
      @shannamckinley9343 3 роки тому +1

      I couldn't agree more, studying everyday for me has been life changing. Even if I am without adequate sleep at this time in my life juggling all these classes, it will be worth it in the end. Rather than cramming and not getting one bit of real 'sticking there' type information.

    you should definitely do a separate nursing vlog... I've just started my first year in Scotland and there's a few nursing channels that kept me going through the whole process, would be great to see more of them :) there are basically none in the UK :(

  • @nolanchapman4395
    @nolanchapman4395 8 років тому +4

    I just started nursing school this semester as well! All your tips sound extremely familiar. And anyone who is a pre-nursing I suggest you REALLY pay attention in pre-reqs, become a CNA, and be prepared to say goodbye to your social life!

    Tip #9 probably far is probably the most underrated but extremely pure wisdom and important! Having a great circle around you can make all of the difference in your success of what your trying to achieve. The wrong circle can lead you to fall short of the glory. #KEEP RANTING!!!!💯💯💯

    @sharnaebassaragh4198 8 років тому +19

    Hi, my name is Sharnae and i'm a nursing student as well, i started 29/09/16. it's really stressful and time consuming i hardly having time to talk to anyone but it's just my responsibility to socialize with other nursing students and seek out friends that won't waste time and are serious about nursing.Once i got friends i knew were serious we planned group all-nighters before exams and practice the skills as we go along the semester. it's really rigorous and requires your all but in the end it's worth it and i'm loving every second of it. :)

  • @audreyu5442
    @audreyu5442 8 років тому +2

    FYI, there are some programs like mine where you are admitted to nursing school the same time you're admitted to a university. I'm graduating with my BSN this May and I'm 21, I started in the program freshman year. We also don't have any clinicals until senior year and we have no nursing classes senior year (just 1 elective per semester), so senior year is full-time clinicals at the hospital. There are a lot of different formats of schooling throughout the country.

    I love your videos! Tip #9 is super helpful because I have a friend who keeps telling me if I cared about her I would make the time to hang out with her. It's really stresses me out and makes me feel guilty because I want to please my friend but in the back of my mind I know I need so much time to study for my classes to get those good grades. It's just overwhelming but I love your videos! You're so humble too! I love your vibe.

    Thanks for the great info. I’m recovering from a serious life changing disease (neurological Lyme Disease) and through this disease I discovered my life’s calling is nursing. Your videos gave lots of info and to be honest scared me..... hoping I can do it. I’m binge watching your videos. Any advice for a brand new student. I haven’t started yet but I’m reading all I can and using it to rehab my brain back to where I was before I got sick. Nurses got me through some horrifying experiences and I want to be that support for others. You rock Holley!!!!

    Hey, Im so confused on what school to choose, A Community college (Which the one I am looking at offers an RN program) and its 1 1/2 years, or a University (here in my state which offers a BSN) which is 4 years. What would you recommend?

  • @MzFlyGuhh
    @MzFlyGuhh 7 років тому

    I'm in an accelerated nursing program and it's very difficult. More tips would be to talk to your other classmates!!! They really are going to be your life and death partner when it comes to some of these nursing classes. I start clinicals next month, and you definitely will need them when the time comes. Also like Holley said, study study study!! Do NOT wait until the last minute to take quizzes or tests! Also, read those books they give you!! The Kaplan, NCLEX, and Saunders practice tests and quizzes are very difficult if you do not take this serious enough and study the material! It's exciting but it requires hard work. Good luck guys.

  • @StephanieNau910

    Hey girl I have a few questions about being a CNA! Did you have to take a course to become certified? Also how do you like the job in general ( including the dirty work)? I'm looking into applying to become one soon and I've seen some places will certify you at they're location, was just wondering what you had done!

    • @HolleyGabrielle
      @HolleyGabrielle  8 років тому +1

      YES! 6 week course usually. I love my job. Yes, it's not pretty all the time, but its hands on patient care and its very rewarding in my opinion. I love it!

    Hey I love the way you explain everything I'm starting College Classes this spring 2017. I do plan on majoring on Nursing now I do have a question or 2. So, is it 2 years college and then 2 years for nursing to get your BSN OR is it 2 years college and then 4 years to get your BSN. Sorry if I sound ignorant but no one in my family went to college and I'm the first one and its all just new to me. Thank You.

    • @ivyrosales3582
      @ivyrosales3582 6 років тому

      It's different here. Prerequisite classes can take 2 or 3 years, then the nursing program is another 2 years. The BSN depends like 1.5 years or 2. There are accelerated programs. I live in California

    @amytobin1661 7 років тому

    I think there's prerequisites no matter what type of nursing degree you go for. At least in Arizona, there are prerequisites for LPNs and 1-2 years for your associates and 2 for a bachelors. For our community college associates programs it's like a year of prerequisites and then 3 years on a wait list just for a 2 year degree.

  • @toribadillo5561

    I'm a freshman in college and this video was super helpful! Did anyone ever say anything about your nose ring? I have my nose pierced, and I know a couple of people told me that it doesn't look professional for prospective nursing/actual nursing students.

    • @HolleyGabrielle
      @HolleyGabrielle  8 років тому

      Depends where you work! I have no issues with it right now, but next semester in clinical I may have to take it out. Just depends:) It's who I am, so the non professional thing doesn't bother me!

  • @NurseatNight
    @NurseatNight 7 років тому

    Different nursing schools will have different pre-recs as well so make sure that you look at the required classes for ALL the different schools so you are planning to apply to! It isn't straight forward unfortunately and you don't want to miss out on a great program because you didn't take the right classes to be able to apply!

  • @roseloveslove
    @roseloveslove 7 років тому

    YES definitely do not cram the night before an exam! I would do this before i had an exam for my general biology, and it never did any good. Studying a little everyday is definitely a much better idea.

  • @juicyjulia15
    @juicyjulia15 5 років тому

    my school is a 4 year BSN program and you start in the nursing program right in your freshman year and do your first clinical by second semester sophomore year. I would highly recommend doing a program like mine if you can find one!

  • @alyssaperez6963
    @alyssaperez6963 7 років тому

    this video actually helps A LOT because I have wanted to give up so many times, and kind of like you I made a C in my first anatomy so I have to retake it. I don't know how long it will take before I apply but this video helped, thank you!

  • @dianasahagun8493
    @dianasahagun8493 7 років тому

    Would you be able to do a video about how you got into the program? Like what were your grades each semester, what your nursing program's prereqs were, and the application process.

  • @beachnerbum710
    @beachnerbum710 4 роки тому

    The getting your classes done early is also good because once you hit 100 completed units at a community college, you lose priority registration......... Which is awful. It's hard enough to get into pre-reqs.

    I am a sophomore in High School, My dream is to become a pediatric NP. I always am looking for ways to get ahead of my education and learn. I have enrolled and just got accepted into a program that is considered my secondary high school aside from my primary high school, that offers a course that you can can your CNA through. I know nothing as of right now because I do not start till this upcoming fall. However I have watched a few of your videos and taken notes on them, I feel they have given me a great deal of information that I can use to my advantage. I appreciate you taking the time to help people like me who like to get ahead of the game and who are driven to succeed.

    To any one who is in high school, take those dual credit classes that will transfer to your college transcript!!! I can not stress that enough. I was so scared taking those back in high school and thought I wasn't smart enough. Take them. You will thank yourself when you're in college and you can graduate early than your peers or friends who didn't take them. I wish I did because I'm super behind.

    I'm currently starting my pre-nursing classes. I'm supporting myself and going to school full time. I was wondering if it would be best to drop a class or two and get a W (withdrawal) instead of a D or F which would affect my GPA. Obviously take those classes but later on when I have time.

    Hi I’m just watching this video know. And it might be a know answer already but I don’t, i was wondering do you have to go to a regular college before you do nursing school. Because my school has a nursing program through school you can take your junior and senior year of high school, and the program has a college you can take right after high school as well but not sure if you have to go to a regular college first or can go straight to nursing school. Please let me know. And love your videos they give you a heads up of what your getting yourself into and to be prepared instead of under prepared.

    Love your video; everything you said is SO true. Don't forget men can be nurses too (you said "girls" a lot in your first tip). Good luck with nursing school :)

    I have a question if you go to nursing school in one state but live in another when you are licensed and registered do you have to work in the state you are licensed or the one you live in.

      You wont get much out of these videos on what career you want pursue until you get hands on experience. That what i did and i seen firsthand what the nurses do on the daily basis. Its not for all people.

    Hey Holley, I am a pre-nursing student and I will be applying to a BSN nursing program next Spring. My question is, how did you get qualified for a CNA job while completing your pre-reqs for nursing school? Did you have to take a completely different set of classes for the CNA certification? Or do hospitals hire nursing students for CNA jobs? Thank you!

    • @HolleyGabrielle
      @HolleyGabrielle  8 років тому

      Honestly it depends where you work! I was hired as a CNA, but some jobs will pay for you to take the class and become certified. But I took the class in the summer because yes, it is a completely different set of classes!

    I'm a guy trying to get into nursing school right now and I have a question for you. I had a female friend tell me I shouldn't do it because I'm a guy and I would make patients uncomfortable. I got a chance to kind of check out the school I was one of just a handful of guys there. It is intimidating due to that, I hope you understand why. Would you have any advice on overcoming this?

      armedwithmusic I don't think people would choose a female nurse over a male nurse at any time, but maybe if it's with very young children or something gynecological. I know there's a stigma with men that they can't be as caring to children as women...but in terms of job prospects I'd say a male nurse would find a job much easier than a female one. My mother's employer had a male nurse apply and he got the job, because there's a real shortage of male nurses in the field. Also there's many scholarships for male nurses. I think you should try :)

      armedwithmusic I'm a male nursing student and I haven't had any problems because of being a guy. It's different, but definitely worth it!
