  1. Finally got my acceptance letter to HFCC.

    Veruka replied to mybrowneyedgirl's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Don't despair! Keep in mind that they have to see at the end of this semester how many people will need to take 150 or 155 over. Those people would be re-taking it in the winter time along with the...

  3. So hows med surg at hfcc?

    Veruka replied to oguesswhat's topic in Michigan Nursing

    It shouldn't be any worse than it is for us that are taking it right now. It is 7.5 weeks whether you take it in winter or in the summer. Do you have the option of the 2 day course where you are in...

  4. So hows med surg at hfcc?

    Veruka replied to oguesswhat's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I think it is hard. Not so hard that you will fail, but I think it's alot harder than psych- for sure! Your summer will be: studying, studying, and more studying! Oh yes, did I mention studying???...

    Veruka replied to RN1982's topic in Michigan Nursing

  6. NSNA - Student Nurses' Association

    Veruka replied to suitebliss's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I am in the Student Nurse Association. In fact, I am very involved. It is not just "busy work". Yes, we do bake sales and toy drives, but we also help our student nurses that are in financial need, we...

  7. HFCC rules for hair while in clinicals...

    Veruka replied to RN2B73's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Yup! Anything past your shoulders must be pulled back & out of your face. No "wispy" bangs hanging in your eyes, either. I saw a girl get "reprimanded" for that. No hoop earrings, no rings...

    I hope they put in a new parking lot before they do that! LOL! Wishful thinking, I

  9. disections...

    Veruka replied to RN2B73's topic in Michigan Nursing

    As far as I know, we don't dissect anything. But, then again, I am only in the first semester. However, I have never heard of this being done at

  12. **MySimplePlan**

    Veruka posted a topic in Michigan Nursing

    Hello- I was wondering if you could share any details of what being a nurse extern entails, how you got the job, pay, etc... Basically, any details that you would feel comfortable sharing in this...

  13. How clinicals work

    Veruka replied to RN2B73's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Yes, I have all my pre-reqs & co-reqs done and out of the way. I was only taking NSG 120 & NSG 126. There were a few people that were also taking A&P on Saturdays that I know of, as well...

  14. How clinicals work

    Veruka replied to RN2B73's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Here's how my week went last semester: Monday- Off from school - however, it is a GREAT day to come into lab and practice the skill you will be evaluated on the following day. Tuesday: Practice Skill...

  16. HFCC clothing question...

    Veruka replied to oguesswhat's topic in Michigan Nursing

    No acrylics. Nails must be short and only painted with clear coat. If you face your palm towards you, the tips of your nails should barely be visible. There is no wearing scrubs for the cross...

  17. HFCC clothing question...

    Veruka replied to oguesswhat's topic in Michigan Nursing

    No. khakis, nice slacks, etc.... I think that the policy should be changed, because more often than not you will have days where it specifically tells you to wear loose clothing, but for now it...

    Veruka replied to Just_An_Illusion's topic in Michigan Nursing

    We will definitely be having a meeting in January. We will put up flyers, plus your teachers will tell you about it. Definitely join- it's a lot of fun, plus you get those 2 points.

  20. HFCC Fall '07 post here

    Veruka replied to amybethf's topic in Michigan Nursing

    It really all depends on when other people get called up. Some may have moved on, some may not be done with pre-reqs, or they might all accept. They told me 18 months & I waited 7. It's really...

  21. HFCC Winter '08 - Come on In

    Veruka replied to Just_An_Illusion's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I am doing psych first, but have no idea where or if I am AM or PM! Since I already did PM, I have a feeling that I will get AM. Oh well. I heard we get to go to court cases in the AM (if we are...

  22. HFCC Winter '08 - Come on In

    Veruka replied to Just_An_Illusion's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I got a really good stethoscope (Littman- which I recommend, if you can swing it. about $75.00), and a "pocket thing" with the bandage scissors in it, which will also hold your nail file & pens....

  23. HFCC Winter '08 - Come on In

    Veruka replied to Just_An_Illusion's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Just a quick note on evening clinicals...... they are great for "night owls" (like myself), but in the daytime you get sooo much more experience! I did evenings, and I only did one complete bed...
