Hey guys,

Is everyone’s castlebranch documents complete? I’m still waiting on one vaccine and I’m worried it won’t be reviewed and approved on time. ?

So far everything has been getting completed for me within 2 days. I still have to get my cpr certification, my class isn't until friday. I'm hoping that it will be approved by Tuesday. I'm going to call customer service on Tuesday and see if they can speed things up.

Hey! We are in the same boat. I get my last vaccination on Friday (I had to wait 30 days between vaccinations). I’ll give customer service a call too, thanks for the idea!

Does anybody know if we use the fundamentals of nursing book through our nursing journey or just for semester 1?

I think "use" is a strong word, but I have cited mine as a reference when writing papers and such throughout the program. There are also a few charts and tables in there that are handy.

hey guys! Wondering if any of you opted to rent some of your textbooks? If you did which ones?

[BStoBSN]

sorry- also, on the list of required textbooks several of them have a "w/ access" next to the name.. does this mean that we need an access code with them or what? did anyone buy the majority of theirs off of amazon/ chegg?

[BagelBomber, ASN, BSN, RN]

I have bought every book for CCBC on Amazon, and they've come with access codes. I rented the ones I used for my ATB program, but bought the CCBC books since I may use them to study for NCLEX.

@BagelBomber thank you!! do you know if the codes are needed? like required for some sort of assignment or something?

[BagelBomber, ASN, BSN, RN]

We did use the online material for the Funds book during Funds, just some videos we had to watch as lab prep. The other codes we didn't use, although I think some people may have used the online info for enrichment when they studied.
