   I remember them mentioning we had to have fingerprinting, but I assumed it came along with the background check. I'm a bit confused with this part of the process :/

   I have no idea either if we start clinicals right away. Hopefully they let us know that stuff at the orientation, it would be nice to know what we're walking into!

   Awesome! I look forward to meeting you :) I took the TEAS in January, so luckily I don't have to worry about it anymore.

   Yes, talking about the program starting this summer. As far as I know, most clinical sites are in Hanford but I can't say for sure if that's the only place they will be. Will you be starting the program too??

   Me too!! I actually started thinking about what in the world I might do if I don't get in :/ It's driving me nuts, but trying my best to stay positive. Any idea of when they let applicants know? I've been thinking April, but that's just a guess...

   2 A's and 2 B's. Mind sharing yours, too? :) I know, I've been the same way and all the waiting to hear back doesn't help. I also applied to COS and thinking about applying to Porterville, too. But, the counselor at West Hills told me they actuall...

    No, I did not ever hear back from them. I was extremely nervous during my interview and it definitely showed. They were very nice about it, though, but letting your nerves get the best of you doesn't work too well in a correctional setting... obvio...

12. Common Correctional Nursing Interview Questions

    TCNurse86 replied to Guest371144's topic in Correctional

    I just had an interview at a CA prison, and thought I'd share the questions I was asked: 1) What are the components of a physician's order? 2) IM is shaky, dizzy, confused and is an insulin-dependent diabetic. What would you do? 3) How do you complet...

    Thanks for your reply... I've decided to keep school my top priority right now. The more I thought it over, it just seems like the best thing for me to do. I won't have this opportunity forever! As far as the interview goes, should I keep the appoi...
