Thanks RN I am grateful for your encouragement, I think I psych myself out sometimes since this is complete unknown territory for me. I have a lot of support from my husband and family. Makes me so nervous to start back to college after 10 years, but you have to start somewhere right!! Just hoping it will all work out well. I have submitted an application to Springfield Tech Community College. I live in Enfield so it is the closest for me. They say they get over 500 applicants, only take 100 and those all have great grades on their prereqs. Crossing my fingers

I am currently working in connecticut, not originally from here, so i suppose i have never really considered myself a true ct nurse. but i'm here the change has been interesting, the culture in new england is a tid bit different than the midwest, but i am slowly adjusting :-)

Hey bennie
how was your orientation May 30th?? Just curious to know what hospitals will you start rotating??

It was good- thanks for asking
Kind of overwhelming with a lot going on. I put in a few requests for hospitals, but we won't know anything for sure until August when they have the schedule made up. There were 6 or so hospitals to choose from, so I hope I get one not too far from where I live!
