Hi all,
was just being nosy on the board. Im about to start my 3rd year at Oxford Brookes doing children's nursing.
re books we all got advised to buy Human Anatomy and Physiology with Interactive Physiology 10-System Suite by Elaine Marieb... and i have to say i think i have used it twice!! and it has just been sat on my shelf since halfway through my first year. You are much better loaning it from Brooks library.
I have got Wong's Nursing Care of Infants and Children which is fab but very expensive so might be worth putting it on your xmas pressie list and probably not needed to begin with.
Don't go too mad on buying books as most can be loaned from the library and you will probably find you only use a book once or twice.
Anyway - good luck for starting and will probably meet you freshers week.
