Gentle TOS reminder:

While it is important to be able to network, everyone should be mindful of the following:
  1. It is a small world - when we narrow it down to a state and throw in some personal info, there is actually a pretty good chance someone may recognize you if you are not careful. Your privacy is paramount to us.
  2. While allnurses.com is a wonderful place to vent (without excess personally identifiable details) it is not the place to express why ("x" specific person, place or program) is terrible. Gripe away, but since we cannot permit allegations to be made about named entities, your care in not naming them is very much appreciated.
  3. Please do not give out personal information about others. Do not name names where anyone could identify the person in any facility including your nursing programs.

I will be starting Basics in January. I was set to begin this semester but due to personal problems, I was only able to take Pharm. I've aced every test so far and I'm very happy with my decision.
If you are taking the day section of Pharm - the text is really unnecessary. Save yourself the money and if you *must* have a text, the old version will suffice. The notes are excellent, really don't bother with the text.
I suggest purchasing a Blackberry or Iphone, even a used one on Ebay. There is "Epocrates" and "Skyscape" phone programs that are great supplements to the pharmacology and will help in the clinicals, only certain smartphones will run those apps though.

Charity so far seems very well put together, I really enjoy everyone there.
I'll be at University for the evening section.

Since my feet are wet for the program, I encourage anyone with questions to contact me and I will try my best to assist you.

See you at orientation!!
My friend is in the program now and she said that she hasn't used her books either because they give you TONS of notes to print out.......BUY INK

Pharm isn't a lot of notes really. They're organized very well, much easier than handwriting. All lectures are on Tegrity so if you didn't catch something or miss lecture, it's all there for you.

Great to hear from all of you that are starting in Janaury!

I attended the Open House on November 14th and I found it be super helpful! The tour was very helpful, considering I had no clue where to even go the first day of class! Also, family got to see where I was going to school. I have ordered my books from Amazon. I spent about 600.00 which I thought was awesome! I marked yesterday, the reading assignment due for the first week! (Im trying to be prepared!) I am planning to attend the student to student session. I think it's January 13th?? No sure, since I don't have the papers right in front of me. When is everyone planning to order their uniforms? I scheduled my clinicals at St. Tammany considering I live in Covington! That was very nice. I look forward to meeting all of you! Let me know if anyone else has clinical at STPH. Thanks!
