Yes! That's a lot less! I actually just got my yearly physical a couple of weeks ago(covered by ins.) so he said he would fill the form out with that info for 20$! Yay! Works for me!

Hey everyone, I also heard that the 1 step will be accepted but that we might be better off getting the 2 step because it may become a requirement soon. I live in the Bayonet Point area. I ended up calling my old high school for them to send me records of all my shots because I believe that should be enough.. right? lol I know I still need the physical/flu/ppd but I am thinking the old records should be what I need. I would be interested in carpooling too if anyone is interested. At least our clinical sites are close.

I am totally interested in carpooling....Do you know where are clinical sites are?

Kelly from the nursing admissions (she is also the one who will be doing our orientation) told me that they are supposed to be Bayonet Point, Community, Rehab (behind IHOP in Hudson) North Bay, and that she isn't sure which we will go to first but that it would very likely be one of those.

Does anyone have a recommendation for shoes? I haven't seen any that I love and all the "nursing" shoes I have found hurt my feet.. lol

I am not sure on shoes as well!!! I am gonna hold off on all purchases until after orientation. Now do we HAVE TO get Landau or can we get any white scrubs????

I think as long as they are the same "style" we should be fine, but I think to play it safe I will ask as well. I was going to go over to the school and check out what they have because that way if we can get different kinds, I will know what they need to look like.

This might be a dumb question but I am wondering why it is that they are saying we NEED to have a flu shot.. Ive never had one and just wondered why it was a requirement.

ok, my husband just told me to call and ask what we would be allowed to buy as far as supplies before orientation. he wants me to get my shoes, stethoscope, etc. early so i'm not running around like a nut last minute. has anyone actually called and asked already?

Athena--- I was told to wait to buy all supplies until after orientation, especially uniforms and books.

So, completely off subject but....would anyone be interested in making a facebook page for our class? The LPN class has one and i think it would be a good way to post articles, news, etc. Just a thought. I'd do it but I dont really know much more than how to navigate around the site!

Jennymarie: I think that is a great idea... Although, I am in the same boat as you, I would not be a good administrator for the page.

Anyone computer savy???

justletgo1 · Nov 2, 2011

I didn't learn any of that is Micro! lol....I nominate the man of the group!

athena71 · Nov 2, 2011

I tried to start a page on FB for my husband's painting biz. I gave up :-)

LOL Athena! I tried to do one for my fiance's financial firm and I gave up too...it is much harder than it looks! One of us has got to know a LITTLE something about this right?!?!
