  1. I don't think reassigning patients temporarily to a qualified colleague during an emergency (RRT/Code) requires a full change-of-shift type Report. At the first hospital I worked at two SICU nurses were assigned to RRT/Code Duty each shift (not nece...
  2. Whether through ignorance or malfeasance, they are misinterpreting that section of Title 22. The pertinent sentence in that section begins with: "If a healthcare emergency causes a change in the number of patients on a unit..." It does...
  3. Thank you Julie for writing and sharing this with us. It is despicable that in our country this sort of civil litigation is allowed with no repercussions. I lived for a number of years in Germany and my father in law was a high court judge there (h...
  4. Again, sorry for the late reply. I had to repeat N102 - missed passing by one percentage point! But the second time I came close to getting an A and I am getting an A now in N210 (got a B in N211). I have Professor Burt for 210 and she's GREAT. A...

  8. Update: I actually forgot to call the Business Office regarding the double billing for tuition (Nursing tuition plus normal full time tuition) until today. But before calling today, I logged into my my.ccc.edu account and found that the problem had...
  9. On another subject concerning the requirements we need to fulfill to start the program: Concerning the Basic Life Support (BLS) for Healthcare Workers requirement, when I first googled that term to find an appropriate course, the American Red Cross B...
  10. Thank you so much for the info! I figured that, but still, it's a relief to know for sure. Oh, and Ifoundyourkeyz. :-D
  11. I've run into a problem which I HOPE is just a glitch in the my.ccc.edu software program. On Thursday I successfully signed up for the 7 credit hour Nursing 101 class and I also signed up for a 5 credit hour Chemistry class (a total of 12 Credit Hou...
  12. I don't think you have to worry about the Health Insurance requirement that was included in one of the attachments in the e-mail Amy Green sent out to us back on June 21st. Amy sent out another e-mail on July 10th that included a Word Doc that was a...
  13. I received my acceptance letter today. So excited and so relieved!
  14. Hey everybody, My Academic Advisor just sent me an e-mail asking me if I submitted proof of my CNA certification with my application to the Nursing Program. As I told him, there was no place I saw in the online application to submit this info and th...
  15. Yes, all three. I'm thinking that should help.
