Preparation Tips for Nursing Students: Insights from Nurse Melanie

In this episode of Nursing School Week by Week, I share essential tips to help you prepare for nursing school. I cover how mastering time management and organization skills with the use of digital and paper planners can be a game-changer. I also explain the importance of setting up an organized workspace and creating a study schedule. You'll hear my advice on refreshing prerequisite knowledge such as anatomy, physiology, and medical terminology. I stress the significance of building a support system, preparing mentally and emotionally, and maintaining self-care routines. Additionally, I offer practical tips on managing finances, gathering essential supplies, meal prepping, and navigating transportation. Leverage apps and technology to aid in your studies. Overall, my goal is to help you set the groundwork for a successful nursing school journey.
