Hillsborough Community College Fall 2012

Anybody applying ...? =)

Hey all. I graduated today with my AA in Liberal Arts... now I get to do it again in 2 years with my ADN!! Yay!

I wanted to let everyone know that I saw wine scrub bottoms today at Wal-Mart for $15.

Also, now that appeals are done, we should get campus assignments pretty quickly. (I was told end of May). It's pretty crazy how high the alternate GPAs are! Good luck to those that are waiting.

Congratulations Brandee! Patiently waiting over here for any word on what's going on, lol. I feel so out of the loop, and quite nervous actually. It all takes time, I suppose.

I just registered for my CPR/BLS class. I went to this site: In-Pulse CPR- » Over 9 class locations in FL. Offering CPR, First Aid and AED American Heart certifications., and if you use discount code: NEWS, you get $5 off so it is $45 instead of the normal $50.

I chose the 6/14 evening class... if anyone wants to join me!

Closer and closer..... :)

Not a bad deal considering this is also the 2 year certification.... I may seriously consider this Brandee:)

Brandee do we need to take that class or is it just extra?

I think the CPR class is one of the things we will need prior starting the program. I had mine renew (because I work in healthcare) and won't expire until next year so that should be good for the purpose.

Yep. Just make sure when you are looking for a class (we will get this at orientation) that you do the CPR/BLS (basic life saving) for health care providers - regular CPR isn't enough.

Be sure wherever you decide to get CPR/BLS it is a AHA certification. We had a lot of disappointed people in our orientation. Several people went out and got their certification, only to have to repeat because it wasn't approved by AHA.

Sorry I havent been on in a few days, With your clinicals you will have the option to choose your day. Your professor will email you and ask which day you will like...you may or may not get it but you will only have 1 clinical per week :)
