Sorry to hear this. I just graduated in May and understand. As a new nurse you can't work anywhere but Med-Surg at a hospital. Everywhere else wants experience, heck most of the hospitals near me want experience for med-surg. I can say that April-Jun...

To anyone who will help. I am a recent RN graduate. I now have my license and have been applying for jobs. A few interviews and one possible offer. I am going on in school to become a nurse-midwife and would like L+D experience, but obviously tough t...

Well I see classes have caught up to you all! No posts in a couple weeks! Hope you are all doing well...take care from your friendly sophomore!

lol....get used to the disorganization. It is a running theme throughout the program. Though I think it helps us cope with stress for when we become RN's! LOL

No luck on the food last year. I think there were water bottles, but no food. Maybe you guys will get lucky.

You are all so lucky last fall when I started I had to argue my way out of federal jury duty on the orientation day. That is in addition to all the fun stuff you guys are working on. Then they suggest a new date for my jury duty....1st day of classes...

we found out our campus assignment and teacher/hospital assignment at orientation...have fun tomorrow!

Oh I don't believe mine was $100 it was like $70 something, but that was last Fall though...

Hey guys....you sure are extending this thread quickly. If only I had this type of support when I was starting. Anyways. The lab kit I purchased when I started last fall is for 1st and 2nd semester. It included a BP cuff, PPE (gown, mask, etc), gauze...

Umm yes the time of the month....well luckily if you are "normal" you will generally only have to wear your white uniform 2 days of your monthly visit. I always doubled up to be sure though! lol

Probably because the NP expects teenage girls to see an OB/GYN or specialist for that care whereas male patients only have their primary care practitioner. Just a thought....

I personally got the packets when I started since I wasn't sure what I would need to succeed. After the first semester I got the books individually based on what I knew I would need. So get what you thinks works for you.

Oh...additional note....course manual is from the bookstore...it also contains the syllabus. In my original packet I got when I start NS last year I got a price list of total costs...no individual book cost. Though I remember the total being somethin...

Hey everyone....Just dropping in. I wanted to say a few things. Our uniforms only have one patch on them. The second is on your lab coat which you wont need till second semester. Books are a racket. PHCC orders special bundles so the isbn numbers won...

For the RN program at Dade City you will be at either Florida Hospital Zephyrhills or Pasco Regional. I don't know about clinical placements for north or west campus. Several classmates of mine received sponsorships. They worked as a PCT like 8hr per...

you need AHA BLS for heath care providers CPR cert....that is what PHCC offers but you can get it anywhere as long a it is AHA

I believe it is 3 semesters fall/spring/summer

the school offers a cpr class for non credit. but you can go to any AHA BLS for Healthcare providers to get certified. just look it up on the AHA website if you can't got to the one at the school

I would think so as long as it has the specific list of what the school wants...let me pull out my physical form from last year and see.... Polio vaccine or titer Tetanus vaccine within 10 years Rubella/MMR vaccine or titer Varicella PPD annually Hep...

oh and I just googled your shoes....If you were in my class there wouldn't be a problem. I can't speak for the west campus instructors but they should be fine.

you said it all. Shoes are up to each instructors discretion. I was at east campus and they were really laid back as long as the are overall white I wouldn't worry too much. If you can count seconds on your watch yo are good...though I got one with m...

Hey All congrats on getting in! So I got a PM from someone (you know who you are) but I can't PM back yet. So you need your CPR card to walk into clinicals so get it before classes start. On East campus they weren't real particular about shoes white ...

Hey everyone! I loved micro....such fond memories....you should watch this Animal Planet show called "monsters inside me" ( i think). I try to guess what the people have from what I learned in Micro. It is fun and I will admit I am pretty good. So as...

Hey guys, I am sure I seem so weird posting so frequently on this board when I have already been accepted, but I was in your boat just a year ago and nobody reached out to help me. So.....As far as hospitals go I only know about East Campus. The opti...
