Conestoga College!

Good Afternoon! In three weeks time many of us will be embarking on a new path in life as nursing students! I, for one, am very excited! I am beinging the RPN program and will be bridging to the RN progam in two years time. I have a few questions for the experienced: What kind of stethoscope do I need? Will they tell us at orientation? I have spent some time researching a few different types, but I am so confused! Also, Id like to get a jump on ordering some scrubs. Is it true that you must have different colours for different placements? Any other supplies that they dont tell you about that you have found useful?

are you kidding?? what makes you so self important!? Im sure that is not the reason!!!

Hi There! I live in Kitchener-Waterloo, ON. It is about 45 mins west of Toronto, 40 mins north of Hamilton and 1 hour closer to Toronto than London. It is a city of roughly half amillion people. We have three large main hospitals and tons of smaller clinics and specialty offices. I have lived her my whole life, except when I went away to University. My father moved here from the UK himself when he was about 25 and loves it. We are a large, diverse population with two Universities and one College. The community here is very welcoming and community minded. I had always thought that I would move away, but KW is wonderful because it it close to everything!! 45 minutes to the city, 2 hours to the US, and an hour or two to the beach depending on what lake you go to. With that being sais, KW is known as a 'sleeper community' for Toronto and its suburbs. Many of my friends and family commute into Toronto for work. Kitchener has a big city population with a small town feel. Im sure you would like it here!!
