About Me
- undergrad RN
- I'm a twenty-something Canadian student. After stumbling through a few years of college, I finally managed to get into the nursing school of my dreams, where I hope to graduate in 2012 with a nursing baccalaureate degree. I want to offer an honest look into how a modern nurse is educated, both good and bad. Eventually I hope to compare my education to my day-to-day career and see how it holds up. Whatever happens, it should be somewhat entertaining. Find me on allnurses.com!

I DO NOT and WILL NOT repost anything someone emails me. If I want to link to something, I will find it myself.

N95 mask fit test, and a road trip!
8:52 AM |
Edit Post
The mask fitting is today, and the road trip is this weekend.
My fit test was originally scheduled for October 1, but they called me and needed to reschedule it for today at 10:10. I had heard from some of the other students that the test is kind of gross, I guess they spray some super bitter chemical in the air and ask if you can smell it. You aren't supposed to eat or drink for half an hour before the test, to try to preserve your sense of smell.
The road trip should be fun (I hope); it's a school-subsidized trip out the mountains for some rock climbing and white water rafting. Total cost for the weekend, including everything except food, $50! The only thing that concerns me is the fact that it's the third weekend in September. In Alberta. And we're going to the mountains. I will probably need to pack some super winter gear!
Anyway, off I go to the mask fitting. I shall report all later.

What a great way to be spending your weekend! I will be cuddled up on the couch with Fundamentals trying not to cry!
Enjoy the rock climbing!
