  1. FCCJ/FSCJ Fall 2010 Hopefuls

    In both cases, it depends. Both instructor and hospital rules vary.
  2. FCCJ/FSCJ Fall 2010 Hopefuls

    Paying for it yourself is also a powerful incentive to perform well.
  3. Anyone take the HESI?

    A lot of HESI info in this thread including list of versions: https://allnurses.com/fl-nursing-programs/hesi-different-versions-509681.html
  4. FSCJ/FCCJ spring 2011 hopefuls

    Titers do not need to be performed first. The immunization can be performed first. (That was the point of my prior post.) Inciting anxiety and fear by suggesting that students will be unsuccessful if they do not spend every waking hour on school do...
  5. FSCJ/FCCJ spring 2011 hopefuls

    Clarifications, corrections and differences of opinion: Immunizations do wear off over time. A vaccine's effectiveness declines over time. Just because you had an immunization in the past does not mean that your titer will "be ok". Only the titer ...
  6. FSCJ/FCCJ spring 2011 hopefuls

    In my experience last term, you could do these in any order. The proof of each titer is a separate requirement from the physical. In fact, I had my physical performed at Northside Clinic first. It was completely unrelated to the titers and the doc...
  7. FSCJ Fall 2010 ACCEPTED

    In all group/team projects in which I have been a member, all participants received a copy of the final submission. It was never a situation in which the one to compile it was the only one to see it. Simple: a copy was emailed to all. What kind of...
  8. FSCJ/FCCJ spring 2011 hopefuls

    My letter was dated July 20, postmarked July 27 and received July 28. (That old no-no of not mailing letters the same day they are dated.)
  9. HESI - BLOCK 1 - How to prepare

    See my review of that book here: https://allnurses.com/fl-nursing-programs/hesi-different-versions-509681.html#post4608075

    The uniforms are customized, including the blue stripes. You will probably need special permission. I have heard of folks being dismissed from Clinicals for less.
  11. Nursing 3:1 tool update with pictures

    Doesn't this increase risk of nosocomial infection? I have been instructed not to carry any tool to be used from patient to patient to patient.
  12. FSCJ Fall 2010 ACCEPTED

    In my opinion, that is all mostly wishful-thinking, ideal-situation-type stuff. The reality is that during Term I, a group project comes together in the last couple of days. By the time you realize that someone is not pulling their weight, it is us...
  13. FSCJ/FCCJ spring 2011 hopefuls

    The only thing I would add to that is that registration is in-person on orientation day and on paper. After the lottery numbers are drawn, the students line up according to number. When you got to the front, you registered for the section you wante...

    I want to protect my anonymity but I will say, "enough".

    If English is not your first language, then you have a total pass. :)
