Published

Orientation is tomorrow. What can possibly take 6 hours? I'm looking forward to orientation, but SIX HOURS!

I don't even know if I'm officially in for January or not yet. I'm on the alternate list, but have been invited to orientation. I guess I'll get a better idea tomorrow.

Specializes in NICU/L&D, Hospice.

We have two orientations--one was Nov. 28th and it was three hours and the other one is January 10th and it's from 9-5. Actually we have a whole week of activities. January 11th is library orientation to nursing periodicals and it lasts one hour.Then we have a computer workshop(don't know how long that is). January 12th is Academic success for nurses 11-1pm and Friday we have an optional computer training workshop. Beat that! Oh, and congratulations on getting in!

I don't want to beat that. You can have that all to yourself.:chuckle

Thanks everyone. I'm still in disbelief!:p :p :p

Consider yourself lucky. We also had three 8 hour days of torture!!

Six hours?? :chuckle Im in a evening program and we had orientation from 430p-9p for 3 days. We covered stress management, what was expected from us, what we need for the first semester, introduced and welcomed to the school, and a whole lot of other stuff that I feel we could have read in the student handbook! :uhoh3:
