IRSC Fall 2014 Hopefuls!

[Jessika1252]

Hey everyone! I know this is super early to be talking about the fall semester but I just got my denial letter for the Spring 2014 semester so I wanted to make this group for anyone that's applying or didn't make it in like me. I got a 109 score on my NLN exam which makes my total points for program 130. I took A&P I & Micro which accounts for my points. I would like to retake the NLN in 6 months & hopefully I can do much better. I'm currently enrolled in A&P II & plan on just studying my butt off for the nln in the process. Classes I have left before I'm done with all my "pre-requisites" are A&P II (which I'm currently in), Chemistry, and Nutrition. (which I plan on taking those in spring/summer). Maybe we can get a study group together eventually if anyone is interested! Best of luck to everyone! :)

WHY DO MY PARENTS NOT KNOW WHERE I GOT MY VACCINES DONE!? lol I have to wait for UCF to send me my records to know what I need, I hope it's none!!

I had my tdap done today. I have my 3 hep b shots but the nurse told me that I didn't the antibody test? Has anyone got that yet?

If your are getting the ppd test fot tb, I wanted to let you know that at tbe vero health department they don't do the skin test anymore, they do the tb gold test, it is a blood drawn and can take up to a week to get results. Had to do mine today for my first rn job :-)

And call for an appointment!

I made an appntmnt at my doctors for the tdap, tb skin test and my physical all on july 28th. For those of you who also need the Hepatitis antibody test, where are you planning to get it done? Apparently my doctor doesn't do it

[Acbeisler]

Looks like I'm good for my MMR (If you have two, you're good, right?) And Sonny6, I'm in the same boat as you. I had all three hepatitis vaccines done in 2004, but never got the surface antibody? Can I go now and get just that or do they have to do the third again??

Also have to get TDAP then I'm good. WAH

[Sonny6]

That's exactly what I'm trying to figure out ! I think I'll try calling the nursing dept to ask

[jessica321]

My arm hurts from the tdap! so the health dept doesn't do the hep b antibody test, so I'm not sure where to go.

[jessica321]

So I just did some searching on the internet and it looks like quest and labcorp may offer the hep b antibody test! I'm going to call both places tomorrow after work and I'll let everyone know!

[Sonny6]

Yes please do !

Anyone else sign up for the CPR course on June 30th? Just thought I'd see if I knew anyone that was going to be in it?

[colive321]

I might have to sign up for this one..the other one is on my birthday...LOL

[Sonny6]

So I was wrong, my doctor does do the hepatitis surface antibody test. And he didn't say anything about needing to get the third shot again before getting the test so guess we don't need it again.
