And do we have to have a CPR and the other BLS?? What is that anyway? I mean I know we have to have a CPR but do we need the other?
BLS (Basic Life Support) is a type of CPR class. So you only need the one :)
Also, is anyone else considering using FSCJ North Campus child care on site? I have a girlfriend who is a occupational therapist and said the staff is very friendly.
So what's everyone doing today? I think I am going to do the drug test. I also have to contact my insurance company and see if they will cover the titers/physical. Does anyone else's insurance cover this? If they don't cover this stuff, I have heard that the Northside Medical Clinic is the least expensive place to go. I'm so glad that I'm not working right now, there is so much to do! I am so excited! I'm going to enjoy the excitement while I can! lol.
Ginnybee, I am probably going to put both of my children there for the Summer. I have heard nothing but great things about them
