    Murse, you're so lucky to get into your doc so quickly. I have to wait two weeks. I did get the drug testing and CPR paid for today.

    Where are you doing cpr at. I did mine at Edward Hospital, they have several dates and it is only 50 dollars compared to JJC 90 dollars, and it is a 4 hour class verse a 9 hour class at JJC. they are the same classes. It might be worth looking into. save you $40 and 5 hours. Here is a link to the class schedule. hope it helps.

    I ordered all my stuff got some stuff that cost more but it will be worth it at allheart.com the Littman classic se 2 has great reviews. I have a doc appointment Friday and I have to set up the other test. Thanks for the info I will look into Edwards and save $ I am registered at Jjc the Thursday before our big meeting.

    Do you do the one for health care providers? And is this one acceptable at Jjc.

    Yes, Edward is for health care providers. They actually have both. the website will specify which on is which. I showed my card to the department and they said it is the same one they give. I took the class a month ago. and the book you get is the same one everyone gets regardless of where you take the class, and Edward has a nice cafeteria.

    Most local Fire Stations have the class for a discount to residence too. It generally is 50.00. That's the route I'm going, I don't live near Edwards. I think the information about shoes will prob be in the handbook when it gets loaded into iCampus.

    Where ever you go just make sure it is american heart association. Some fire departments are red cross.

    I just went to a place in Naperville around the fox valley mall to a place called scrubs etc to buy my shoes. They offer 20% for students all times and they have an email sign up when you text them you get an instant 30% off your order. I think their scrubs are better and they have scopes and blood pressure cuffs also. It was much better then life uniforms in Joliet. And did I say 30% off. Yeah me!!!
