Love the Podcast!
I love this podcast so much. Getting prepared for nursing school but I was a flight paramedic for many years. Only thing to note in the Sepsis Case Study please make it very clear that his opinion that the cultures aren’t very important and that the HR in the 200s was stable is not ok. New impressionable students will be listening closely and building their clinical opinions. Please add a disclaimer that the HR is of concern as the patient is quickly decompensating. Also that cultures is critical especially with the MDRO’s are climbing quickly. Keep up the amazing work, truly the best podcast.

Right to the point
Love this podcast!

Great episodes - clear and to the point
Thank you for the episodes on different disease processes. I wish I could study with you one-on-one like Andy. I am in nursing school now and I love the clear and concise explanations, and then the follow-up case study episode for each with Andy. Your voice and audio is clear, and also your chemistry with Andy makes it so enjoyable to listen to. It’s perfect! Only improvement I can suggest is just more of the same - disease overviews with supplemental case studies!

Super helpful
Love listening to your episodes. Clear and concise and super helpful to reinforce my nursing skills. About to start an LPN to RN program and plan to listen to all your episodes as part of refreshing my skills :-)

No talking over your head
I’ve only listened to the Head to Toe assessment but loved that she took the time to explain the simple things, briefly. She didn’t assume I knew what accommodation is for example.

Such a great useful podcast!!
Wow, this is like a game changer for me, I found this podcast by going through many many nursing podcast. I listen to Nursing school week by week while I am on my way to school. I really enjoy your podcast. You have been provide all the useful tools, how to assess the patient with their disease, and what to provide nursing implication. I really love the case studying you added in the podcast. I have been telling all my nursing friends and they enjoy as much as I do. I always exciting on Wednesday, that is your new episode release! Thank you, because of you, studying nursing becoming very interesting for me!!

She was thorough and inspiring as I am taking basic medical assistant jobs class but want to be a hospice or neonatal nurse!

Great Information!!
I’m not even a student yet but I have been trying to prepare early and get some knowledge beforehand. Your podcast is amazing! I love the quizzes that you give throughout some of the episodes. I can’t wait to start in the Fall ‘23 and of course I will always come back to your channel for reference and still listen weekly!

Quality episodes
Thank you for the quality content! As a soon to be RN student, I have been trying out many different podcasts. Not many are as well thought-out, focused, or clear as this one! The simulation episode is fantastic. Please keep them coming!!

For aspiring or new nursing students
I have found this podcast so helpful as I’m debating going to nursing school as an adult with an already established career and bachelors in psychology. I’ve really appreciated all the easily digestible information, tips and tricks. Keep the episodes coming!! I’ve literally devoured your current episodes and need more!

Your podcasts are to the point, and you hit every key point
I love your podcasts, they are very educational, and i love that you have the transcript on your website as i typically hear your podcasts in the car, then come home and sometimes i read along with you. Lol

Thank you for the Anki rec
Thanks for your podcast. Really liking the Anki flash card app. Quizlet wasn’t working for me for flashcards. I like that Anki repeats cards that I flag and the shuffled daily sets are great to do when I have five minutes in the day. Your deep dives into topics are great. Thanks!

Love it
Short episodes, tips and tricks to remember certain things, real life. Very helpful! Please keep the episodes coming!

New listener
Hi !! It’s my 1st week of nursing school. I am equally excited and terrified. I love the quizzes that you did throughout the head to toe assessment episode. It really helped my understanding. Thank you !

Children too young for school
Props to Melanie for the podcast on, are you too old for nursing school? I am a single mom with young children in her upper 40s! Never wanted to be in this position, but that’s how life is. Dreamed of going back to school and have made multiple unsuccessful attempts. I did get a bachelors degree in a field that just didn’t fit right out of college. This podcast helped put things in perspective.

The best content for newly accepted students
I’ve been on the hunt for this exact podcast it feels like it was made for me. I got accepted into a competitive program last week + have been frantically planning out every detail of preparation even though I still have two months before my program starts. This podcast has every piece of advice I could want all in one place with a super soothing voice too!

Excellent content into short episodes
I have relistened to these episodes many times. I am preparing for an ADN program and I am following Melanie’s systems . I love how they’re quick episodes jammed with information that I can use with the student perspective. This brave soul actually started a podcast IN nursing school . That’s intense , thank you Melanie .

THANK YOU
Im a mom of a toddler and preparing to return to school… nursing school! Thank you so much for doing this podcast it’s eased a lot of anxiety!!!! Heather

I love your podcasts and I like how how you explain the terms and simplify it to ways we as viewers understand. Also, loved the physical assessment episode that was entertaining!!😆

A Must for Nursing Students
I love this podcast! I highly recommend it if you’re in nursing school or thinking about entering the field. Please keep it up!!

Awesome! PLEASE keep going!!
I love how you break it all down in an easy to understand body systems! I’m sure you’ll be great at whatever you record! Please keep it coming!

So informative! I learned more here than in nursing school!!
So far I have only listen to one of your podcasts, but I learned so much and really enjoyed the way you taught it. I have been an ER nurse for three years and learn so much about medication as I get on a daily basis NY liver patients present the way they do. Please keep making more episodes! I was so impressed!

Thank you
