Hi guys! Here's a tip to memorize the "times a day" that I developed while working as a certified pharmacy tech: Qd ( "d" for daily) Bid-twice daily-(B is the (2)nd letter of the alphabet) Tid-three times daily-( three starts with T) Qid-four times daily-(q for quad which = 4) Hope that helps! Great video Caroline!
So nice to see you on here again!! Thank you so much for helping everyone out with these tips! So thoughtful of you :) Looking forward to seeing you again soon!! Much Love, - Caroline
Thank you Caroline! I have a nursing professor who does not like to offer explanations, and she prefers not to be asked questions, so I find your videos extremely helpful and vital to my success in nursing school. Great job!
Hi Shannon! It is so nice to hear from you again! I'm sorry to hear that your professor is not open to communicate freely with you... sometimes it happens... But, I am really glad to hear that these videos are helping :) Keep in touch & I look forward to hearing from you again soon! Much Love, - Caroline
Thank you Caroline for ALL your fascinating and informative videos! As an NREMT, I watch your videos as often as possible,and I always learn so much ! God bless you Caroline and love you too!
Thanks so much for the video it really helped me not stress about next semester. I got done with first semester and started to stress cause I felt like I didn’t learn anything. But this video shows I have! Thanks so much
+Marlon Cuizon Thanks for letting me know Marlon. I'm glad to know that not only nursing students learn from this video. I cannot wait to see on here again soon!! -xoxo
When they don't make sense, it's easier to remember them if you know their origin. For the first group, here is the phrase in the original language and how you can remember them in English: AC - ante cibum - BEFORE FOOD (Latin) AdLib - ad libitum - TO PLEASURE (Latin) BID - Bis in die - TWICE IN DAY (Latin) GTT - Goutte - DROP (French) www.jjcoding.com
Great review, thanks Caroline! I'd love to see a demo video on taking phone orders if you don't have one already because that's something I'm nervous about.
Hi Chloe! Thanks so much for letting me know! You know, I think I might already have that one too: Here is the link: ruclips.net/video/PN1x4GiAzVk/видео.html Let me know if this is what you were thinking!! Talk to you soon! Much Love, - Caroline
Those speaking Spanish will find connections, as there are lots of Latin-based terms. For example, antes = before and comida = food. So it makes sense that ac = before food. Also, gotas = drops. These are tricks I teach my medical Spanish students. Overall, very informative video :)
Thank you! I will be in this class next semester...I'm looking forward to it and the especially since I have you for help. I really appreciate all your videos. Be blessed Caroline.💚
Hi Caroline! Awesome video this gave me a little background before I start nursing school! I have a question for you, I am starting my medical terminology class in a few weeks and I was wondering if you recommend any books for that class? Or if there are any online tools that wold be good? Hope you had a good weekend!
Hi Stephanie! So nice to see you on here again!! Books I'm not sure... I'm sure you could search the term on Amazon & find a few good ones :) Here is the link to the comprehensive site I was referring too in the video: www.globalrph.com/abbr2.htm I hope this helps!! Let me know if you need anything else! Much Love, - Caroline
Great video once again. Had some new orientating nurses on my floor that were just asking about some abbreviations you covered. Told them to Subscribe.
Thank you Justin! For not only posting the positive comment, but also telling other people about it :) Looking forward to hearing form you again soon! Much Love, - Caroline
Good job. I see gtt all the time pertaining to eye drops. I've never her OOB and I worked surgical most of my nursing career. Different areas and countries use some expressions more then others. Something to think about, I noticed you said "expire" for death. I think we have become too sterile in nursing. I think if we stick to the actual terms we will carry more compassion throughout our careers instead of it becoming stark and cold. I've been nursing a very long time and I work with dying people now but we don't talk about "expiring" we talk about when they die. The management and the nursing community as a whole like to make things stark and remove any emotion from what we're doing. don't fall into this trap. Let's just call it what it is...death. Cheers

I heard a lot of people using sob wrong then or get offended by the term. You are a sob just means you are shortness of breath
