    First year is fundamentals. BP, vital signs, IVs, bed making, wound care, medication steps, assessments, etc..
    First year second semester is OB and peds. Little kids and prego mothers. Neonates,C sections, RSV, etc..
    Second year cardiac disease, GI problems, diabetes, higher up medical problems, cancer, etc
    Second year fourth semester ICU, trauma, psych ward, psych problems, psych meds, even higher up medical disease, etc.
    In the process your also taking your other pre reqs.

    It is great and also very hard! You learn a lot about life through the people you are privileged to provide nursing care for in your clinical rotations! Don’t be afraid to go ahead and start reading your Fundamentals textbook and start practicing listening to breathing and counting pulses and breath rates! My first instructor taught us to use the ring finger and middle finger to find pulses rather than the index finger! Never forget you carry your most important tools with you onto the floor and into the classroom, your eyes, ears, nose and your brain! Look for nursing sites as resources and use the CD’s and resource websites that come with your books. Our teachers often use questions that are the same or similar on exams. Your fellow students are also great as well to help bolster you and for studying with to prepare for exams. Get plenty of rest before you start and be prepared for lots and lots of reading!
