  1. First night of clinicals

    LMRN10 replied to sh1901's topic in General Students

    YES, YOU CAN DO THIS!!! It will be fine...the first few clinicals are always a little...I guess uneasy? The unknown is what's so scary, but as time goes on, the confidence will increase!!! GOOD...

  2. Med Surg textbook

    LMRN10 replied to dhammond3's topic in General Students

    I'm in a 2 year program and we use Brunner and Suddarth's Medical-Surgical Nursing

  3. Need Help with Smoking Issue!!!!!!!

    LMRN10 replied to Nursey103's topic in General Students

    My suggestion, don't "talk" about it...tell him the office is where you are a good portion of the time to get your school work done and it is off limits. If he wants to smoke, he either needs to go...

  4. Wh-wh-where'd all the CLC students go?

    LMRN10 replied to ViolettaCCU's topic in Illinois Nursing

    I'm so sorry to hear that. Is that the only thing that you need for the nursing program? Did you at least score well enough to get into the program? Maybe just do the Chemistry in the spring and go...

  5. Venting about classmates with families...

    LMRN10 replied to moncj66's topic in General Students

    Well, this is just my opinion... I certainly think that people who don't have kids or jobs can still have problems. Hey, we've all been there, so I know I had issues back then too. BUT, having been...

  6. RN being offered?

    LMRN10 replied to spoiledbrat0627's topic in Illinois Nursing

    Not sure where in IL you are, but at CLC (college of Lake County), you test in. Right now you would be testing in for the Fall 2009 semester. I think most places, there is some sort of waiting. Do a...

  7. Does anyone ever feel this way?

    LMRN10 replied to hTx87's topic in General Students

    ABSOLUTELY!!! But I do have a friend who graduated from the same program as me and she said it's going to seem like none of it makes sense, but once you start out in the real world, it all comes...

  8. Tomarrow is Injection Day!!!

    LMRN10 replied to Blove86's topic in General Students

    Totally normal to be nervous...I'm in my 2nd semester and I have yet to give a shot to a patient. I never got to last semester, but some did. I would imagine after the first time, you won't be as...

  9. a little help over here?!?!?!

    LMRN10 replied to HAnurse2b's topic in Illinois Nursing

    I'm in Lake County and I go to CLC (College on Lake County). I like the program. It's mostly self taught. The worst part about it in the past have been the PE's (performance exams) and they changed...

  10. Wh-wh-where'd all the CLC students go?

    LMRN10 replied to ViolettaCCU's topic in Illinois Nursing

    I agree with everything Colleen said as well!!! And Micci, I had Mary last semester for the night courses...she was AWESOME! And we all miss her this semester. I wish we had one instructor through...

  11. how did you handle it?

    LMRN10 replied to greysanatomyfan's topic in General Students

    Oh lord, the story of my life!!!! Yes, my mind was ALWAYS on school!!! Even when spending time with my family...what am I forgetting to do, hmmm...wonder if I'm ready for this test tomorrow. Did I...

  12. Are family members asking you for med advice?

    LMRN10 replied to dorselm's topic in General Students

    It is not all the time, but yes, people do ask me. Usually my answer is "we haven't learned that yet." LOL I'm only second semester for crying out loud!!! Give me a little time

  13. Wh-wh-where'd all the CLC students go?

    LMRN10 replied to ViolettaCCU's topic in Illinois Nursing

    Basically every week we work on a different module...we have a different focus in our lecture, lab & clinicals. For example, this semester we have Maternity, Ped's & Geriatrics. The...

  14. Wh-wh-where'd all the CLC students go?

    LMRN10 replied to ViolettaCCU's topic in Illinois Nursing

    The deadline when I applied was the 1st Wednesday in September, so just make sure you have your stuff in on time! I got my acceptance letter I believe October 29 or somewhere around there...late...

  15. Wh-wh-where'd all the CLC students go?

    LMRN10 replied to ViolettaCCU's topic in Illinois Nursing

    I agree with Diedra...you will figure it all out, but there is a lot of jumping around. I wouldn't let that frustrate you! You'll have plenty of other things to do than get frustrated! At least you...

  16. I am a visual and hands on learner

    LMRN10 replied to Shawnygirl003's topic in General Students

    I am a hands on learner as well! I love lab and clinicals...I learn so much there. For the reading, I highlight!!! That definitely helps me! And for lecture...I write a lot of stuff down. I've...

    LMRN10 replied to LMRN10's topic in Illinois Nursing

    LMRN10 posted a topic in Illinois Nursing

    Just wondering how everyone's first day went? Share with us what semester your in and what you thought of the first day!!! I start tonight...in about 2 1/2 hours. I'm nervous!!! 2nd Semester is...

  19. MEOW! Catty nursing students

    LMRN10 replied to OldShoesRock's topic in General Students

    I'm so glad that my class is not like this. There are 8 of us (we do have 1 new person starting with us this semester), and we all got along great. There were certain people who did get caught up in...

  20. Correct me if im wrong

    LMRN10 replied to deanikins211's topic in General Students

    just wondering, were you taught 2 part and 3 part? the way i was taught was: 2 part (only used for risk): risk for deficient fluid volume r/t vomiting, gastric suctioning 3 part (aeb - as evidenced...

  21. Shoes for clinicals?

    LMRN10 replied to cpartrid's topic in General Students

    I actually just got a pair of $10 walking shoes from Walmart last semester and they were actually really good! Eventually I'll get the Nursemates or something, but for now, that works

  22. Wh-wh-where'd all the CLC students go?

    LMRN10 replied to ViolettaCCU's topic in Illinois Nursing

    That stinks...but sometimes that's how it goes . I'd have to say that YES, you are accepted...but anything can happen I guess. For our semester, it was the highest cutoff in I don't know how...

  23. Wh-wh-where'd all the CLC students go?

    LMRN10 replied to ViolettaCCU's topic in Illinois Nursing

    It sounds like you've got it all figured out. One thing I would suggest though is call CLC and verify that they do have your transcript if you haven't already...I know I had issues with them not...

  24. Wh-wh-where'd all the CLC students go?

    LMRN10 replied to ViolettaCCU's topic in Illinois Nursing

    98%? That is a GREAT score!!!!! WAY TO GO!!! Now just get through testing out of 1st & 2nd semester, and you are good to go! Have you submitted your application and all of that

  25. Wh-wh-where'd all the CLC students go?

    LMRN10 replied to ViolettaCCU's topic in Illinois Nursing

    I would imagine you'll get your results mid week this week...it usually only took like a week or so for mine to come back... First semester was the basics like hand washing, bathing,...
