Gateway CC LPN Cohort Fall 2016

Nursing Students School Programs

Published

Hey All,

I thought I'd create a thread for future LPN applicants awaiting admission for, hopefully, the Fall 2016 cohort.

I was hoping for a lucky spring 2016 spot, but oh well..., so here's to hoping for this fall.

I finished a nursing assistant course at Paradise Valley Community College and submitted my PN application on 12/7/2015. So I thought others can share their "patience" on here like me.

So clinical's are next week. I am so nervous because we only had 2 days of school so far. I feel so unprepared. I got Jenn Dorn though. So hopefully she gives me the confidence I need. Did any of you do a lot your first day of clinical.

It all depends where you go. I had Jennifer at Mi Casa. Is that where you guys are going? If so you won't do too much on the first day. It'll be more or less observation and shadowing and maybe a few things. For the rest of the time that you are there though you will do a lot? You will be able to fill up your entire skills sheet. Jennifer was the best preceptor I had. She knows virtually everything about nursing, she is really a walking encyclopedia. You can tell her that Damon says hi hahaha

I don't know if the code will work if they have already been used before.

We are going to Mission Palms in Mesa.

I sent u a message

Hey does anyone know the store that sells the scrubs we need besides gateway

Apparel Pro Scrubs in Tempe off university

How long does it take for them to do the embroidery?

That I'm not sure of. I just ended up buying them from the bookstore.

Went in today said they will have it done tomorrow. So I guess a day.

What all should we bring to clinical besides the obvious things. I thought maybe a small note book to carry around to write notes in. Any advice or suggestions?

you should get an email from you clinical instructor telling you what you need. Watch, stethoscope, notebook, gait belt, etc.
