FSCJ/FCCJ spring 2011 hopefuls

does anyone know how long it takes to receive the CPR card? I have been certified before but misplaced my card. I have scheduled to redo the class on tuesday but want to make sure I have it by dec. 10. anyone have any idea?

I got mine at the end of the class.

Does anyone have the 21 years and up package code for the background check? It wasn't in my packet and I would like to get that taken care of.

The code is what you write in or print out after you buy it online. :)

Squirmy, where did you go for your CPR card if you don't mind me asking?

I took the class on the North campus. It wasn't the cheapest of the choices, but it was the most convenient for me.

When we go to do the background check... on the first page where it asks you program/ department. What do we check? Registered Nurse? cuz there is not an Associates degree option... does anyone know?

Hi! This is my first post. I rushed home to check the mail after seeing the posts on here about acceptance letter and I got in!! for those of you who didnt make it keep trying, this was my second time applying.

Is anyone else a little overwhelmed with all that has to be done in such a short time?

Hey, since you already got into the program, what do you have to do about the immunizations? Do the tests for the titers cost extra? If they are positive then we do not have to get the immunization? If you could explain I would appreciate it! I hate that we got our acceptance letters today but can not do anything until Monday because of the holidays.

I went to my primary care physician and did them, without insurance and it was $75 for everything minus the drug test. You have to go to the north side clinic for that. The $75 included my physical, titers, and whatever else they needed from a doctor. If you have insurance, your immunizations should count as preventative and just be a co-pay. If your titers look good, then you do not have to have an extra immunization. Like varicella, I had it as a child so I had the antibodies and did not need the immunization. =) Contact worksource. Depending on the semester, they sometimes pay for all of the things you need for the program including stethoscope and uniforms (but they do not reimburse). My friend just graduated in August and they paid for her to take her ACLS and PALS, something I did not get to do a year ago.

Thank you!! I actually got in contact with my instructor and he is able to send me a duplicate copy! Thanks for your help!! :)

The code is what you write in or print out after you buy it online. :)

I actually just got a paper in the mail today with a code on it!!

Missa, I will have to check the mail when I get back home... I was too confused by the packet directions which indicate a need for a code...

someone mentioned worksource... yes! contact worksource ASAP!! they pay for books, tuition, and if you qualify you get travel money too. set up an appointment as soon as possible. they are one of the best resources.

what is worksource? is it income based or anything?
