1. Ivy Tech uniforms

   2bNurse Elizabeth posted a topic in Indiana

   The Richmond campus requires us to buy uniforms from the bookstore, but they run really, really small and they can't get any larger sizes from their new supplier. I saw on some postings that others of you from other campujses are getting Ivy Tech sc...

   I think you will still get your full Pell and Higher Ed. Award as long as you don't exceed your cost of attendance minus. This assumes that your estimated family contribution (EFC) is zero. If not, this has to be taken into account as well. Richmon...

   2bNurse Elizabeth replied to stupidcancer's topic in Indiana

   We had computer issues too. I tried to register and got a "Major Restriction" or something like that, but no one knew what it was, so I had to do all mine on paper too. Whose group were you in? Wouldn't that be a hoot if we were in the same room t...

   I was at Richmond's orientation today too. What sections did you get in to? I have clinicals at Fayette Memorial Hospital in Connersville. That's gonna be a long drive twice a week from Richmond! I tried on the uniforms, but didn't buy any today. ...

   I just nearly wet myself I was laughing so hard at reading your message! I logged in and just automatically clicked to go to the last page to get to the most recent messages and there was yours at the top. I guess I missed the page before because I...

10. Witnessed my first death

    2bNurse Elizabeth replied to madampomfrey's topic in General Students

    Since I'm just entering nursing school in August, I haven't seen a death in a professional setting (obviously). But I was with both my parents and my brother when they died, so I hope that experience will make it a little easier to deal with my firs...

    I don't know about Greencastle, but what questions do you have? There are lots of Ivy Tech folks here who might know some answers.

12. Alternate!!! Crying all day!!!

    2bNurse Elizabeth replied to 2bNurseArrica's topic in General Students

    Don't give up hope yet! I have a friend who was an alternate and was admitted even before the deadline for those admitted to return their acceptance letters. People drop out often for many reasons. Some apply to several schools to raise their chan...

    2bNurse Elizabeth replied to moneekw's topic in General Students

    There is one other thing you may want to consider. Were you told to research insulin dependent diabetes or Type 1 (juvenile) diabetes? I am Type 2 diabetic, but I am insulin dependent. And this is not at all uncommon. Type 1 and Type 2 are defini...

14. Funny charting error.

    2bNurse Elizabeth replied to lemonaidangel's topic in General Students

    A friend of mine who is an RN didn't make a charting error, but what happened was kinda funny nonetheless. She charted that the cardiac patient was SOB. AND THE PATIENT SAW IT! He was enraged and spoke to her supervisor about it! lol :chuckle

15. some help please?

    2bNurse Elizabeth replied to 2bManNurse1017's topic in General Students

    I would second the advice about not mentioning it to instructors. I know of a couple of people who were actually failed in their clinicals because they talked too much about their personal/home lives. They had the knowledge and the skills, but thei...
