  1. Practicing as a nurse with keratoconus

    CarolynB1991 posted a topic in General Nursing

    Hello, I'm starting nursing school next week, which feels surreal to say since it's been a distant dream of mine for years. It's a six-quarter program for an Associate's Degree of Nursing and I've...

  2. Nursing School after personal burn injury

    CarolynB1991 posted a topic in Burn

    I'm a nursing student weeks away from my second quarter of Nursing School (we start back up January 8th). I was involved in a very traumatic burn a couple days ago, I was at an outside craft...

  3. Nursing School after personal burn injury

    CarolynB1991 replied to CarolynB1991's topic in Burn

    I haven't been able to speak to faculty yet because of the holiday weekend but that is on my agenda. I'm just so disappointed with what happened... still kind of in

    CarolynB1991 replied to RNMarshall34's topic in School, College Programs

    Well there is a criminal history background check that you need to pay for... maybe that's what they were referring to? We'll have to see about clinicals, I know there's a clinical orientation but I...

    CarolynB1991 replied to RNMarshall34's topic in School, College Programs

    Hi! We just had to provide our immunization record, though they did ask us to self-disclose any medical conditions and medications we might be on. The program also requires us to have current health...

    What kind of pen light did you end up getting? On Amazon most of the ones I'm seeing use an LED light, which I remember they recommended

  7. Anatomy and Physiology Refresher Course/Study Guides (free)

    CarolynB1991 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hello, I'm starting nursing school in the fall and I'm realizing just how rusty my A&P knowledge is. I took Anatomy way back in Winter of 2012 and I didn't have the study skills back then that I...

    What kind of white leather shoes? That's such a random choice of footwear. Did they recommend a brand or anything? And here I was thinking we could just wear Skechers,

    CarolynB1991 replied to RNMarshall34's topic in School, College Programs

    Oh, it's also interesting because I applied under one last name (my maiden name) but I finally got my ID updated to my married name. So I have to somehow switch everything over with both the school...

    CarolynB1991 replied to RNMarshall34's topic in School, College Programs

    Hey everyone! I haven't heard from anyone in this thread in a while. Who here has turned in all the paperwork already? It's been interesting gathering all my immunization records since most of them...

    CarolynB1991 replied to RNMarshall34's topic in School, College Programs

    I feel almost guilty for being accepted. I'm sure there were so many people who worked so hard for the program and were not accepted. Feeling especially guilty since I was so near the cusp at 104.75...

    CarolynB1991 replied to RNMarshall34's topic in School, College Programs

    Hopefully it's normal I'm crying... I'm a wreck right now! Happy tears, of course. I barely made it in too, my points ended up being 104.75 and the cutoff was

    CarolynB1991 replied to RNMarshall34's topic in School, College Programs

    Thank you, that's very informative. I'm hoping I'll get in my first go-around and not be an alternate status (I should have 105.25 if I get the educational bonus points) but I know realistically that...

    CarolynB1991 replied to RNMarshall34's topic in School, College Programs

    I would hope they send rejection letters too! Not everyone who gets accepted ends up attending, so they need to let the people know if they'll be on standby or whatever it

  18. Shoreline Community College Fall 2017

    CarolynB1991 replied to RNMarshall34's topic in School, College Programs

    I really wish there was a way to let us know electronically (like through an online portal). With snail mail, it's hard to know when it'll come in. I keep telling people I'll know any day now but I...

  20. Geriatric Nursing?

    CarolynB1991 posted a topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Hello, I would love some insights from nurses who work in the geriatric field whether that be at a long-term care facility, at a clinic or in home health. In high school I put in many hours at a...

    CarolynB1991 replied to RNMarshall34's topic in School, College Programs

    I am praying I didn't mess up the paperwork! I took the Accuplacer tests instead of the Compass test, but there was no place to put that in to the online application so I literally crossed off Compass...

    CarolynB1991 replied to RNMarshall34's topic in School, College Programs

    That seems kind of fishy - not saying it's not legit, but I'm pretty sure they're mailing the applications in. Website says 4 to 6 weeks after the application deadline of April 3rd, meaning early May...

    Did you ever end up calling? Just curious. I've been trying to stay busy with work but it's been so hard with all the
