Hello! Would anyone know if some of the hospital start dates are flexible for residencies? I see that Providence, St. Francis, Swedish, all have an August start dates however, I graduate in September. I know that Virginia Mason has a flexible start d...

Hi there, I can't answer this question for you but I know that when I emailed UW about my prerequisites, they were so kind and fast at getting back to me. Here is the email : [email protected] Good luck!

Yes, I thought that would happen...I'm really curious to know how much the previous cohort liked it. It's a quick program (12 months) so I'm wondering how well that translates online.

Hi there, have you heard anything about how the program has changed? Is it all online?

Hi there! Congratulations! Have you heard how the program will be taught? Will it all be online? If so, have you heard how the previous class is liking the online format?

Hi @futurenurseis! Was that confirmed for Portland that Summer will begin as hybrid (online and in person)? We haven't heard yet about Ashland but would assume they will run the same program.

I know that they haven't confirmed the entire cohort yet. As of last week, when I reached out, they said they are still waiting to hear back from people, on their acceptance, which is why we haven't received our SOU id's yet.

Thank you @caringkevin Always a wealth of knowledge! That is worrisome...have you heard any rumblings about if Summer will be done online?

Hi! I was requesting about signing up for student housing but was told I couldn't yet because they have to assign student id's for both SOU and OHSU. Until they have the whole cohort confirmed they won't send this information to us so I can't sign up...

Thanks @jules_r hopefully, they decide soon. so many other schools have already moved to online or pushed things off until fall.

Hi @jules_r ! Did they say if it will continue in person or online?

I was reading about the requirements for technology and that it says Mac's/Apple may pose to have some issues. Anyone know if other students have been able to work out those issues with the newer Mac's?

Hi All, Just wanted to share with you this new posting I saw on OHSU's website: https://www.ohsu.edu/school-of-nursing/compliance

Hi Ashland Cohort folks, I started a facebook group: OHSU ABSN ASHLAND 2020 So far, simplysadie and I are in ?

Yes, you'll have to go to American Heart Association to get your BLS certification. This link will help you find a provider near you: https://ahainstructornetwork.americanheart.org/AHAECC/classConnector.jsp?pid=ahaecc.classconnector.home&cour...

Hello! I'm going to try and message you through allnurses. I'll send you my email so we can discuss perhaps finding a house/ apartment together. I still have to send in my deposit but don't have any facebook information yet.

@orneryscientist thank you! where did you read about the compass trainings? I totally missed that. My vaccinations are a mish mosh because I've moved around so much. I scheduled to see my PCP to get a titer but they just informed me that due to finan...

@tonniea @orneryscientist hi! Do either of you know where to get the certifications needed for the compliance?

@Catsandcoffeecakes @ohjoy I think I'll try the SOU family housing then. That way I can feel out the area and not feel a major rush to land housing moving down from Washington. Hopefully, they have something open for me! Thanks again everyone! I can'...

@ohjoy I cannot believe the price for some of these places that look completely run down! Mama Mia! Anyone want to rent a house together? I see nice homes but I don't need 3 bedrooms and can't afford a whole home but if I had roommates, I could. Hope...

Oh, that's good to know! I'll definitely look at Medford then. I don't need much! And 20 minutes isn't bad at all.

@tonniea OMG, yes, not very user friendly, is it?!

thank you @Catsandcoffeecakes and @ohjoy (good luck on your move)! I guess the good thing is I actually don't have that much to bring. I figure 15 months I won't need to bring everything with me. I'll look into CPM, that information is super helpful!...

Hello - to anyone accepting the OHSU ABSN Summer program but is out of state, what will you all do if the stay at home orders are still in place? My biggest concern is actually being able to find housing and if anyone will want to rent out to me comi...

? hoping for a positive change as well. I hear a lot of schools have changed to online for now.
