I'll pray for you too. Just treat your patient like he or she is a close friend or family member. Chat with them all the while you are doing your skills--while explaining what you are doing. If you catch yourself forgetting something, just back ...

WCCCD has no waiting list. It goes by GPA of pre-reqs. Less $$$, Less time, & approximately $0.30 per hr pay difference. I could be mistaken but that's what I've been told. You can always go for the BSN or further later. I hope that helps.

Of course, apply. But if you are really concerned about your GPA, take micro over. At the info meeting, I remember hearing: "If you get a "C" in one of the sciences, you probably want to take it over." Check the other threads or call the NUR offi...

One more term for me too! I will be so glad when it's over. Yay to all of us!

Congratz!

I just talked to someone who still works at GM & was given $5000 for some class to learn how to give massages. Amazing, isn't it? I also just called Workfirst myself because I am concerned about all the fees & such after I graduate with my...

$28K in school loans is getting screwed over--LPN or RN. Don't forget, those loans are not the low interest loans offered through the CCs. I agree, go the community college route. What if you want to continue your education? You're going to want/...

Hi, I have to add something else too. I went into the NUR office just last week. I was one of the students fortunate enough to get the MI nursing scholarship. I had applied around Thanksgiving last year. Now a new year is upon me so I inquired wh...

Hi, I was going to respond a few days ago. I agree w/everything SerenityRN2b2010 said. I'm sure the NUR office is in turmoil because of the move. If it was ME in your position, I would go & get my application packet & tell them I will tur...

I met 2 "Nice" nurses. One of which was actually helpful. And one very tall, very dark, & very handsome doc! :)

Hi, I did my OB rotation at Hutzel. I loved it down there. They provide student parking & a shuttle service. It's not too far but I was on the day shift & had to be there 1/2 hr. early so that I'd make it to the floor on time. There's a...

Does anyone know the texts we need for OB & Med-Surg II? Thanks

You won't quite understand what you just said until you get there sister! Good luck to you & congratz!

I hear ya goofy! Everything you said is so true! I'm also a senior this fall. I took classes towards my bachelor's just so I could keep up the momentum of NS. I am happy I did although quite envious of those laying in the sun (my day will come......

I have a great idea! Why not get the book Fluids & Electrolytes Made Incredibly Easy? I promise you, you will be glad you did. You can get it at the library if you don't want to purchase it. Congratz & Good luck!

hi, the nursing classes are at the western campus & the northwest campus. there used to be some at the eastern campus but i have no idea where that is or if that is still an option. the other co-reqs (path, nutrition, eng, soc) can be taken at ...

Hi, Congratz on your acceptance & your acceptance with a glitch...(yes, that's a good way to put it!). What I've learned about the nursing office: This will be one of several "glitches" you will encounter in the nursing office. (I am fortunate ...

From experience: I had to take my Micro in the summer (last pre-req). I too, thought I could apply for fall but could not. I just wanted to say that it really worked out well because it gave me a semester to work on the co-reqs. I managed it so th...

Hi, Welcome! This is an awesome site. You will love it! You are somewhat correct regarding WCCCD's lottery. Mrs. N puts the names in a bucket & as she picks them & calls the names out, we pick the clinical site we prefer. The earlier w...

Hi Sharazed, I'll be in my final semester in the fall :clpty: For one one of my rotations the lecture is Wed 1-4 & I will be doing my clinical on Thurs from 2-11pm. For my other rotation, lecture is M/W 12-2 & clinical on R/F 7a-1p. It r...

Hi, All of the next "to do's" will be in the letter you're waiting for. Physical exam, titers/vaccinations (hep B), CPR certification--but you actually have the 1st 7.5 wks to get all that completed so you really don't have to do anything until aft...
