Welcome New Students! You've made an excellent career choice.
Now lets get started.
Browse through the resource pages listed
to the left. They will help get you started on your nursing
journey. The resources best suited for new and pre-students
are followed by the
icon, the yellow beginner "bricks".
In our resource list you'll find interactive
exercises, videos and pages with different levels of information
written by many authors. Seeing the material presented in
a variety of ways helps retention and understanding of the
material.
Anatomy and Physiology is not just a prerequisite
to the nursing program, it's a large part or your nursing
foundation. Students who best understand how the body systems
function and interact, find it much easier to understand nursing
concepts.
We have a general Anatomy
and Physiology page which is a great place to start. You
can also study system by system in the the "System and
Disease links" at the lower left of this page. Those
pages incorporate nursing assessments, diseases and interventions
so you start to see how each body system relates to nursing
knowledge. The science of Nursing is all about helping people
towards increased health. Knowing, in great detail, how the
healthy body functions will give you an advantage in upper
level classes.
