ForensicMI

For those who already have started the nursing program or started last year.... did you buy any supplemental/additional books? If so, what?

Outside of Epocrates, what other applications will you guys be using?

Yeah it's the university center! By the way, I'm glad that we all got to finally meet one another. :)

Hi kelly629! Welcome to the forum! I am also an October start! There is another thread for us October starters that you might want to check out! :) Thanks for letting us know that you e-mailed the professor (s).

Shawn: It stays on the form that tipi27 linked, that we don't have to answer everything. Somethings are just too personal for everyone to know, so hopefully they will understand!

Just curious if anyone has gotten their books yet? For the HHSC, we no longer need the Standards and Scope of Nursing Practice book due to what a professor has already stated to the book store. For the HHSC class, I have the Clinical Calculations b...

Yeah definitely! I'm curious because I know there was a lot of changes that were made. My biggest question is cost for the first year of the program, which includes class costs + supplies. That's my biggest issue right now, is cost.

The guy at the book store said that we needed a nurse pack. Whether that is true or not, I don't know. I haven't gotten anything in the mail. I'm completely aware of what's listed on page 29, but wanted to let August and October starters know that ...

I went to the bookstore as well, so I could get my books for the HHSC 1040 course and they do not have Standards and Scope of Nursing practice in right now. They also do not have the nursing packs in either. I currently have to wait right now to ge...

Jessica, I believe we will be doing that in the Intro to Nursing course. I'm not exactly sure about that. Shawn, I believe we only have to wear our scrubs on lab days.

Macomb Community College October 2010 I plan on specializing in forensic nursing, hence the username

Glad to hear that Shawn, but not on those circumstances.

jlmcla Have you received any medical paperwork yet? Maybe we will get it in the next couple of weeks.

Ok, thanks for letting me know! Name twins!

I think so, jlmcla. I'm waiting to get the medical paperwork in the mail, before I get all the medical stuff done. I've got a couple supplies. I am registered from all my classes as well.

I start in October! :)

If you take a look at the sections, some are in different buildings than one another for MTW.

Shawn: I register to at 10PM. The nice thing about this, is our classes are now assigned to us. No more hurry up and wait, and all the other stresses that come with registration. It looks like for the HHSC class, some of us will go separate at firs...

Zhockeymom I don't know if it's me, but the link doesn't work.

For those of you who has or is currently volunteering, what was your experience like? What did you do? What did you personally get out of it? Lately, I've been thinking about doing some volunteer work and I was curious as to hear people's personal...

Zhockeymom A lot of books is right! :)

Thanks so much for your response. You have been so helpful! :)

CorazonDeOro Since you've already completed your first year of Nursing, I was curious as to what brand of shoes did you buy? New Balance? Any recommendations for supplies and where to purchase? Thanks! :)

I wanted to start a supply list of recommendations. I know some of you have already purchased your stethoscopes. I'm curious as to what you purchased and where you purchased it from. I'm leaning towards the Littmann Class II SE. Also, second hand...

Ok! You guys got the same stuff I did then. I thought maybe you guys would have gotten paperwork for the doctors to fill out as well, considering you have to have your stuff done before us. Thank you! :)
