10Fore wordCon grat u la tions! If you have picked up this book, you arecon sid er ing ap ply ing to a nurs ing or al lied health school.This is an ex cit ing step! Your ca reer in health care willpro vide you with many re ward ing ex pe ri ences and op por tu ni ‐ties.I speak from per sonal ex pe ri ence. Early in my ca reer as anurse, I was car ing for a client newly di ag nosed with stage 4lung can cer. The care team had ad dressed his symp toms: cough,short ness of breath, fa tigue, and weight loss among oth ers.The physi cian had dis cussed the treat ment plan. The so cialworker had of fered her ser vices. Thanks to my ed u ca tion, Iun der stood the di ag no sis and prog no sis—the sci ence be hindthe ma lig nancy. I un der stood that sim ple reme dies would notelim i nate the chronic cough. I un der stood that the dys p neaand fa tigue were in evitable and that treat ment op tions werelim ited.I also un der stood that no one had taken the time tobewiththe client—to sit qui etly and give sup port, to ask ques tionsand lis ten. In your role as a care provider, you will havethe op por tu nity to of fer client-cen tered care. You will givepeo ple re spect, sen si tiv ity, and open com mu ni ca tion. Car ingfor this man dur ing his jour ney did not feel like work. Itwas the most re ward ing ef fort I had ever un der taken.Be cause their stu dents will some day be en trusted with thewell-be ing of other peo ple, health care pro grams want strong

In stead, it is peo ple and fam i lies, young and old,well and sick, who get our at ten tion. I teach in a two-yearRN pro gram, so I fully ap pre ci ate the im por tance of well-pre pared stu dents. Nurs ing and al lied health care pro grams arerig or ous. I have high stan dards, as will your in struc tors.This is why school ad mis sions can be very com pet i tive.To weigh the qual i fi ca tions of ap pli cants, many schools re ‐quire can di dates to take ATI’s Test of Es sen tial Aca demicSkills (TEAS®). The TEAS mea sures com pe ten cies in read ing,math, sci ence, and lan guage use.

A lot of in for ma tion willbe thrown at you. You will do more aca demic read ing than youhave ever done be fore, and study ing will re quire more thanmem o riza tion. You must use your un der stand ing of the knowl ‐edge of your field to rec og nize im por tant facts you en counterin real-life sit u a tions and then draw sound con clu sions. Es ‐pe cially as you move to the clin i cal set ting, you will bemak ing crit i cal de ci sions for your clients based on in for ma ‐tion you gather.You will also need to use math. If you want to de ter mine thecor rect dose of med i ca tion for a client, you will need to beable to set up and com pute pro por tions. You can not trust the

You may need to un der stand the im pli ca tions offluid bal ance, in ter pret lab o ra tory and ra di ol ogy tests, andknow what ef fect med i ca tions can have in the body. With agood sci en tific ed u ca tion, your as sess ment of the client,in ter pre ta tion of data, and se lec tion of in ter ven tions willbe based on ev i dence-based prac tice, not on what “feelsright.”You will need strong com mu ni ca tion skills in school andthrough out your ca reer as you speak and write to clients andcol leagues. Us ing the cor rect word is crit i cal to say whatyou mean to say, and you will be judged on your use of gram ‐mar. In emails and in phone con ver sa tions, your con fi denceand ex per tise must come through so peo ple view you as some onethey can de pend on.I say these things not to make you ner vous and ques tion yourde ci sion, but to em pha size the need to pre pare for the TEAS.The TEAS gives you an op por tu nity to show schools your aca ‐demic skills and abil ity to think like a health care pro fes ‐sional.
