    #494: 6 First Semester Nursing School Mistakes

    18/06/2026 | 37 min
    Over the years I've seen students struggle and students thrive, and what becomes clear pretty quickly is the students who struggle tend to repeat the same handful of mistakes. And the sneaky part? Most of them won’t feel like mistakes when you’re making them.

    It’s not that you're not smart enough, or not working hard enough, or not meant for this. Nursing school rewards a specific kind of engagement with material and most students were never shown what that looks like.

    I'm covering six of the most common first semester mistakes I see, and of course, what to do differently. You definitely don't want to miss this one if you're heading into nursing school.

    Nursing school gets easier when you have a system, which is exactly what I created the ⁠Nursing School Survival Blueprint⁠⁠ for. This free Blueprint walks you through the key shifts that separate struggling students from thriving ones. 👉 Download the ⁠Blueprint⁠

    #493: MMM - Why we Avoid Blood Pressures & IVs on the Mastectomy Side

    15/06/2026 | 9 min
    You've picked up the blood pressure cuff and your patient says "Wait! Not that arm! I had a mastectomy." You swiftly go for the other arm, but let's talk about WHY we avoid taking blood pressures, starting IVs, and doing veni-punctures on the side of a mastectomy.

Acerca de Straight A Nursing: Study for nursing school exams & NCLEX
In this show, Maureen Osuna, MSN, RN (Nurse Mo) breaks down a wide range of nursing school concepts so they’re easy to understand. Each episode aims to help nursing students improve their study techniques, pass nursing school exams, and feel more confident in clinical. If you’re nervous about nursing school, not “getting it” in lecture, or feeling overwhelmed with all the information you have to learn, this podcast will help you optimize your study time so you can learn more with less stress. While nursing school is challenging, it doesn’t have to be impossible. When concepts are explained in a way that “just makes sense”, nursing students have better recall on exams, feel more confident working with patients in clinical, and are better prepared for NCLEX. Nurse Mo understands the struggles nursing students face and draws on more than 11 years of clinical experience to make nursing school less intimidating. Each episode removes the “fluff” and focuses on the key things a nursing student (and nurse) needs to know about a variety of disease conditions. The show also provides tips for succeeding in nursing school, guidance for students and new nurses, and insider information to help you excel at the bedside.
