Well BON has my stuff, but they haven't processed it. Now my fate is in their hands. This is so annoying....it's like waiting to hear if we got accepted all over again.

WoW! That was fast. No sign of mine as of yet.

Well I emailed Becker and left her a voice mail....this is ridiculous. I told her that I may not be able to start my orientation, which is June 9th, and I needed this cleared up. I am so mad!!!!!!!!!!!

I called the BON to find out why I am not able to verify my license. They told me that all of my paperwork is in order. They told me I was on the list of students that El Centro sent but they didn't have a verification of graduation for me. He took...

Maybe I will just act like a patient and "blend in" and no one will notice. LOL.

Well if it gives you any hope, I am in my last semester and I have 4 kids, 5 including my husband. First semester for me was a little bit of a shock. You will be at school 4 days a week most weeks. There were two clinical days, one skills lab day,...

If my memory serves me correctly, our third semester instructor had all the forms from the syllabus online. I never purchased one and I was fine. The ADN signature form never changes so if you have an old syllabus, you could just copy it or just pr...

Just to let you know, I will be entering my fourth semester and I have never been asked for proof of health insurance, although I remember them also mentioning this to us first semester. Come to think of it, I don't know anyone who has been asked to...

Congrats to all the new nursing students! Just thought I would offer some pointers... Make sure you buy a good drug book, you will need it for clinicals. There is not enough info in the Pharmocology textbook. Make sure you buy a good Nursing Care Pl...

The externship is wonderful. I have a lot more confidence when dealing with patients and being in the hospital setting. You also get to actually put it all together, not just skills but the whole role of the nurse. In clinicals I feel like the instru...

No you just go to the same parking lot and tell them you are there for a physical. The first day of orientation, you park in visitors parking and take your ticket to be validated. They will tell you more about where you park and when on your first ...

They were not bad, like school but a little easier. They werent timed or anything.

Well Good Luck to you! I am here if you have any questions.

I just completed my second semester at El Centro.

Basically day one was going over hospital policies and departments and benefits. Day two was check offs and they showed us how to use their glucometers. Day three involved learning how to use their comp system. I asked about our scrubs and was told a...

Thanks for asking! It was very busy but not too bad. I think it is going to be a really good experience. My first day on the floor is Sat night. I am very excited!

her name was kim. she is really sweet. This will be my first experience working in a hospital. I hope we get to learn a lot.

Thanks!

I saw her hire three including myself, so i am not sure if you were one of the girls i saw. When i talked with her i thought i heard her mention she only needed 2-3 people. Who knows. I was hired pretty quickly, but hung around since i carpooled. ...

It was monday and Methodist from 3-6. Those who applied for the extern positions were called for a phone interview and then invited. There were a lot of people there.

I too went to the jobfair at Methodist and was offered a position in PP/NN. My orientation starts Monday. There were a lot of people there and I feel so lucky to have been offered a position. I am going into my third semester at El Centro. I am "the ...
