What Do Nursing Students Do On Spring Break…? By: Jenna Carvallo Editor in Chief |
When most students
think of spring break they think of vacation, beaches, time to be with friends to
let off some steam. Well as most of you know, nursing students are a different
kind of breed when it comes to most students.
While the rest of the spring breakers were enjoying their well-deserved
vacation, several of the CSM nursing students signed up for more classes. That’s
right; we all thought how we can make good use of this week of leisure. Eight
of us (some not pictured here) decided to take the Advanced Cardiovascular Life
Support (ACLS) certification class.
Heart Share in San Jose
held a two day class and their instructors where very friendly and well
prepared to teach the grooling class. I
think I can speak for everyone who took the class and say we would highly
recommend going to Heart Share for the ACLS training. They also offer a discount for students and
continuing education credits for nurses. They found a way to make it fun and
covered everything we would need to know, not only to pass the test, but feel
confident in knowing what to do in a mega code. I feel confident that I can
take on any role in team when there is a code, from giving medications to being
the leader.
