Terrye has ten students assigned; two in the intensive care unit, two students are assigned to the emergency department, and six students remain with Terrye on the medical-surgical unit. Each student is expected to care for and administer medications to two patients. Pharmacology is a major focus because the students take an online pharmacology course. They must be prepared with the why is this patient taking this drug? how is it excreted? and what are the possible side effects? before any medication is administered. In the post-clinical conference, Terrye gave a 15min. lecture that focused on time management strategies to help the student organize themselves.
