1. What are the nurse allowed to do?

This website is about an order created by the government to supervise nurses in their work. Basically, every student should have an account, so they could be able to receive mails from them. You can find a lot of information about your field on this. For example, you can find your rights, sanctions, job opportunities, professional training and more. If you don't have an account, you should still visit this website at least twice a month because it will help you to stay up to date. Also, when you have a job interview, they will ask you question about nursing stuff and you can find the answers on there. Even your going to be done with school, the OIIQ website will always be useful.

2. What are the right Medical abbreviations?

This is a really simple website written by Christen Pascalini from a hospital. Basically, as much may know, the nursing field contains a lot of complex terms such as abbreviations. For my part, I discovered this website this semester and I regret not finding it before. Since then, I always use it especially when I'm at the hospital because the doctors use a bunch of terms in their files. For example, that you're looking for the definition of an abbreviation for a certain disease, well they will also indicate the department and which system of the human body is affected by the disease. It's really convenient for a quick research and it allows you to see different possibility of words with the same medical abbreviation.

3. What are the good Communication abilities?

Although the nursing field is filled with techniques, abbreviations and medications, the most important thing is communication. This PDF written by The College of Family Physicians of Canada could be helpful for students because communication is the main aspect. They are listing how to act with a patient because it changes depending on the person.This link will help you acquire the skill. However, you can also learn more about non-verbal expressions to be able to understand patient where there is a language barrier or even with someone who is deaf. Besides all that, nursing is teamwork because we work with different health personnel so our communication skills needs to be developed.
