Dallas Nursing Institute

We got the white uniforms. We just got them last Saturday, I go to my 1st clinical on Saturday! I am really excited, although I heard that the particular facility I am going to is not so great.

As far as the instructors, I like most of them. A few of the skills labs ones get on my nerves, but the classroom ones are great!

The stethescope thing made me angry....as the above poster said, for 26k you would think we could get a decent one. I had to go buy another one because I couldn't hear through mine, and I have great hearing. Also the rubber tips that go in your ears fall off, half my class has lost theirs. You would think they would be embarassed to have students representing their school at these clinical sites with cheap equipment that doesnt even work.....anyway. With the price of tuition some of the students cannot afford to buy another one.

Well....I've had my 3rd week of clinicals. I have learned a lot. The place I went to the 1st week was just gross, but the last couple werem't so bad.
I have an A&P final the Monday after Thanksgiving and I am DONE WITH THAT CLASS!

The next Semester that starts on Dec. 2nd. I have pharmacology and MedSurg I.

I cannot believe I already completed my 1st semester! So exciting!

Congrats to you as well! I think I will do fine in Pharmacology. The only class that bothered me about the program was anatomy, and I made it through! I will probably end up with a B.

Good luck on starting your clinicals, you will learn a lot. So far the staff and nurses at the clinical sites I have been to were very helpful.
