I bought a tackle box for my stuff. 2nd semester also needs to bring the IV stuff too? I thought that wouldn't be used until the end of the semester?
I used a tackle box for my sharps, too. You do IV at the end but at one point you have to give the lab one of you IV bag so you all can use them during check off.
Do you have your first lecture tomorrow? Let us know how Ms. J. doing in class (after her surgery). I wish she taught our lecture, too. She is such a funny and happy person.

I have my old veterinary tacklebox that I kept my "personal crisis/crash kit" in at home, but it's too big to cart around on the light rail. Maybe I can find just a small plastic container that will fit in my backpack.

Does ECC attend these meetings also?? hmmm.
Ok...it's on the ECC schedule too. But, it's circled by Mysterious...so all 4 semesters of both schools meet together at once???

All of the 1st semester students meet at one time....from ECC, NLC, THR, Baylor (?).
Maybe they are scheduling things at the same time, but different rooms? Hmmmm.....don't know about that one.

Welcome, Amy -- Nice to see you finally joined us
Gosh, it's only a few hours away! I'll have Thursdays off.
I guess I missed the entry about what NLC people are supposed to bring. Do we need any books? Our skills pack?

Kathy,
Where is the post about what NL students need to bring tomorrow? I haven't seen it and I don't know what to bring either. I am usually on top of things but I am feeling kind of stupid right now about all this stuff.

I'm spending today packing my backpack and getting everything together. Do we need to bring anything special to the first day of skills lab? I saw the post of what Northlake students need to bring, but does anybody know if ECC is pretty much the same? I'd hate to be unprepared the first day! LOL. But, I also don't want to cart tons of unnecessary stuff on the light rail and look like a homeless person toting around all my worldly possessions. Everybody post how their first day goes.Take care!Kathy
Take care!
Hey Amy, I found it. Fun posted this on one of the other threads:
"I did ask Iris to clarify what to bring on 1st semester's 1st skills day. I told y'all correctly. You only need to bring regular gloves on the first lab class, if you have already purchased your supply pack, and your Fundamentals book. (Not the sterile gloves.)"
Jaxia is so quick! And all this while looking at Light Rail schedules!! lol
lol, I even had to redo it because I got that nasty 'server busy' message
Thank you Jaxia and Kathy..I am glad somebody is on top of things cause it's not me!

Hello all,
It has been a while since I have posted, I just wanted to wish everyone a great semester. I will be attending NLC, hope to run in to any of you.
Stay Blessed.
Hey everybody....I found a paper that was in our "you got in the program" packet.
It says "Things to bring to your first skills lab session":
1. Please be on time
2. Bring your NURSE pac (steth, BP cuff, etc.)
3. Bring your proof of your CPR certification.
4. WEAR your nametag (I guess I will be wearing one of my MISSPELLED nametags)
5. Bring proof of beginning the Hepatitis B series.
