Nothing done yet - no physical, no uniforms, no CPR nothing!!! Anyone want to do CPR together if possible?? Also, who wants to help me get together ~$1500 in the next 6w so I can pay for classes, books and the first month of $600/mo daycare?? Ahhhhhh!!!
Just signed up for BLS class for Health Care Providers @ St Joesphs Hospital on July 20th. Found the uniforms online, already have the shoes because I work at UCH....will work on the rest of the list tomorrow,
Hey All congrats on getting in! So I got a PM from someone (you know who you are) but I can't PM back yet. So you need your CPR card to walk into clinicals so get it before classes start. On East campus they weren't real particular about shoes white all over (maybe a little colored icon or something). Some people had sneakers and others nurse mates...I don't think they are that particular. Stethoscopes get a good one... it is not the place to cut costs you need to hear the right stuff! Watches that can count seconds so you can do respiratory and heart rates. Mine had a black band and no-one ever said anything about it. Get your physical done ASAP as soon as your packet comes (after you send in your acceptance letter) because vaccine titers take some time to get back. You must have TB test and Proof of immunity to Varicella, Hep B, Measles, etc (by titer or vaccine) before clinicals start. Umm I am sure I missed a question, just let me know....Congrats to all again!
Thanks for the info, I have my titer results from UCH last month. Do you think they will accept them?
the school offers a cpr class for non credit. but you can go to any AHA BLS for Healthcare providers to get certified. just look it up on the AHA website if you can't got to the one at the school
Hey guys, for anyone that needs the info--I just called Pasco County Health Dept and it will be approx $250 for physical and vaccines ($60 for just the physical.) This does not include titers, she said those would be more and just recommends getting the vaccines because you may need them anyways. I am not sure if this includes TB test or not as I forgot to ask but she said this price after I told her this was for nursing school at PHCC and said many people have gone there for PHCC requirements.
So Very Happy. Congratulations everyone and fingers are crossed as well for those still waiting to hear.
