  1. Thanks kbk1985! Please definitely let me know... Yes the orientation will be held in Mcleod (S) building, room 002. It is on the bottom floor.
  2. We will get it at orientation along with schedule for the semester.
  3. Yay!! Congrats!!!
  4. Has anyone gotten their HC CPR certification yet? I got my physical awhile back but still need to do my CPR recert yet. Last year I trained with First Hands CPR. They charged $45, which was a lot cheaper than some others I found but if anyone knows o...
  5. From what I remember hearing from other students who were alternates last semester many did not find out until closer to the start of the program (I'm thinking late June, early July.. not 100% sure). Did you find out where you sit on the alternate li...
  6. Thanks for the info! Is 2nd semester all Med-Surg material? Or do you cover patho and med-surg in that semester? Thanks in advance!
  7. Thanks for the update JNS. I think it really depends on availablitily of clinical instructors so it likely changes from semester to semester. Do you still have labs in 2nd semester? I know you had the trach lab near the beginning but that's it right?...
  8. You will be able to list your preference but I'm not sure it guarantees your shift. The teachers try to accommodate based on needs not necessarily wants. But I don't think there were that many 6 hr clinical groups.. maybe 1 or 2 I think.
  9. I found my box of nursing books & materials and was looking at my schedule from last year. I was in the afternoon (Day 2) section and just to give you a general idea here were the hours for the 1st week of the semester: Mon 1-4, Tues 1-5, Wed 1-3...
  10. I just have an all-white pair of Nike tennis shoes. Doesn't really matter what kind they are as long as they are all white and COMFORTABLE! haha
  11. It does not really matter what type of watch you use as long as it has a working second hand. I would try to look for something water resistant though since you wash your hands 9979767 times a day! :)
  12. Just want to add that 1st semester you also have to buy scrubs, stethoscope, all-white shoes, a watch for counting respirations, background check & drug screen, a physical and miscellaneous other items such as hospital badge ($15) and other stuff...
  13. Yes you can still get fin aid as well as apply for student loans. You just won't get as much fin aid as you would if you were "full time". The award you get is adjusted for half time status for 1st semester. jns... thanks for answering my question. M...
  14. JNS is it true that you don't get any money back for fin aid or student loans for 2nd semester because it is 2 mini sessions less than half time? I am already worrying about how I will survive if that's true. Working while in NS, and having a toddler...
  15. You can also go through CFCC and apply for a scholarship. Go to financial aid office and ask for the Health Sciences scholarship application during the application period (not sure when it is). Also, have you checked out other resources for funding s...
