Lonestar-Tomball Fall 2009

I will be starting at Tomball this fall also! I am taking the second session of RNSG 1172 (8/3-am class). Are you ready? I am still trying to make sure I have everything I need!

Goodluck 2 you guys. I plan to transit 2010. I finish from Tomball 2008 for LVN. 3 of my classmate are with u guys. Cindy, Mary and cynthia. :D

I am taking the second session of RNSG 1172 (8/3-am class).

I will be in your RNSG 1172 class! I have all my books except for 1 or 2. I bought all my scrubs today...still need a stethoscope and rolling backpack. It is slowly all coming together. I am very excited too.

What is your schedule for the fall?

I have lecture MT 800-1100, lab T 1200-200 and clinical on Saturdays.

Look forward to meeting you.

I have gotten my stethoscope, some scrub sets (still need to attach the patches), and all of the required books (the Nursing Diagnoses book should ship the first week of Aug). I am still working on buying/downloading some of the recommended PDA books. I am a little technologically challenged! I really don't want to by a rolling backpack...can you get away without one? I guess those books are pretty thick and heavy! Oh, do you know what exactly comes in our supply kit (billed on the tuition/fee stmt)?

I am taking the Friday Clinical class (it is a long drive, but works best with my schedule) and do not have any classes before 9am on M-T, so I won't be in any of your fall classes.

I don't really know anyone starting this fall, so it is nice that a post got started -- thanks!

To KAYBT6 -- You should meet up with us next year right (2010)? It will be here before you know it!

I have also been wondering about the nursing supplies kit. I just emailed a couple of people, I'll let you know if I find anything out. Which nursing diagnosis book did you order? Is it the original one off the list or the one they talked about at orientation?

I also got a PDA...I knew nothing about them, so I put my husband in charge of researching and purchasing that. It came in last week so now he needs to download all the programs so I can play around with it. I hope it is something I will use alot b/c of how much it costs.

I am going to get a rolling backpack, but I have an old regular backpack I can use for the summer class...I want to see what everyone else gets and see what I like.

What kind of shoes did you get?

i haven't bought any shoes yet. i have a pair of white keds that will get me through the summer class. i also have a pair of running shoes that may work. i might try those out in the summer class. they have a lot of mesh which will not clean easily, that may not be too smart. i will probably get something new when i do back to school shopping with my kids. i should look for something with a lot of support--i am sure my feet will bother me after 10+ hours of standing.

i got the original diagnosis book on amazon, but it won't ship until the first week of august (so i can still change my mind). which one did they recommend at orientation?

what programs did you get (or thinking about getting) for the pda? i will add stuff to my pda as needed through the semester. right now, i have the cd to download from the davis drug guide and i bought the clinical nursing skills for the pda. i wonder if that one is really needed? i will also need to get a lab & diag one soon.

i have a pda with my phone already, so i am going to try and make that work. i was looking into getting an ipaq (without a phone) for the bigger screen size, but i will wait and see how my mine does first. i have an extended battery for it, so it should make a long day of use. i think i can transfer my downloads to a different pda, if needed...i hope so!

hello all, I'm considering placing the Tomball location as my 2nd choice on my nursing application (cy-fair is my 1st). I really don't konw how good that campus is compared to the cy-fair one and was wondering if you can give me your evaluation of the nursing program over there.

Thanks a million
