I'm in the Midwest, and we have several nurses and physicians who wear the hijab, and I've never heard any of them complain that they've had problems. I can't imagine anyone would have a problem, although people can be stupid. If I were you I would...
Hello All: I am a new graduate nurse trying to find my way out there. I'm sure we've all heard more than enough about how the market is right now so, no I'm not here to complain about that one. My question is this. I am sending out my resume for ne...
Sorry about the confusion. You'll be doing hands on stuff that quarter as part of your regular clinical, buy one day instead of being with your clinical group you'll shadow in the OR. Follow a patient from preop, watch their surgical procedure, and...
Beatrice: So happy you posted, I literally was coming to post a "What should I get for my preceptor and her unit" question. Hope you (we) get some great ideas. Michelle

Sounds like you mostly got it right! First quarter: LTC Second Quarter: OB (this includes L&D, mother/infant, and high risk OB) Third Quarter: Med/Surg Fourth Quarter: Peds or Med/Surg/surgical shadowing Fifth Quarter: Peds or Med/Surg/surgical s...
That's just not how its done at CSCC I guess. Every student is in some sort of long term care facility, but not necessarily an acute care setting. So quarter one you focus on assessment and therapeutic communication, no med passes. Every other qua...
You can absolutely switch to the the online program after you start in traditional. And I'm confused about passing meds. You won't first quarter because everyone is in an ECF. But starting quarter two you'll be passing meds, PO, IM SQ and Push. Mi...
I don't think CSCC sends out large envelopes for acceptance, you'll get the other stuff later. I'm in the online program and I graduate in June. There is a lot of interaction with instructors, maybe not face to face with your theory instructor but ...
