  2. UMB FALL 2011

    Jaysie1 replied to kayroool's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I believe it was $400 for me (one year ago). Hang in there

  3. "Y" tubing and transfusion reaction

    Jaysie1 replied to NYNewGrad's topic in Medical-Surgical

    Finally, the answer I was looking for! Thanks, I was scratching my head trying to figure out why a Y-tubing was necessary. I'm still not clear on why you couldn't attach a small bag of NSS as a...

  4. UMB FALL 2011

    Jaysie1 replied to kayroool's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Don't worry, we are not taught how to insert IV's during our training at UMB. That is a good thing or a bad thing, depending on how you look at it. :) Like another user mentioned, you can take a...

  5. UMB FALL 2011

    Jaysie1 replied to kayroool's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Wow, it's February 1st! Congratulations to everyone for your hard work getting to this point. I am a second semester CNL student at UMB Baltimore campus. That means I was in your shoes exactly a...

  6. University of Maryland, Baltimore (UMB)-Spring 2011

    Jaysie1 replied to sandi1743's topic in Maryland Nursing

    It looks like I will be sitting on the CNL student panel during Baltimore orientation on Wednesday, just before lunch. If you have any questions we can't answer during that hour, feel free to stop me...

  7. Johns Hopkins or University of Maryland??

    Jaysie1 replied to misssrblake's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I think you can compare new grad salaries for weeks, but salary alone doesn't determine the value of the work placement. Does the nursing staff support and nurture its new hires? Does the hospital...

  8. University of Maryland, Baltimore (UMB)-Spring 2011

    Jaysie1 replied to sandi1743's topic in Maryland Nursing

    The official uniform calls for white, all-leather, closed-back shoes (no clogs/slip-ons), but at least in Baltimore, if you have already purchased shoes in another color, they will be acceptable....

  9. University of Maryland, Baltimore (UMB)-Spring 2011

    Jaysie1 replied to sandi1743's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Yes, you are correct. The uniform you need to wear for lab and clinicals is a white scrub top and khaki scrub bottoms. They are not particular about which shade of khaki, or which style(s) you...

  10. HESI disaster!

    Jaysie1 posted a topic in General Students

    We tried to take the HESI- Fundamentals exam today at UMB and it was a total disaster! The technology was a complete failure. So many of us got kicked out of our exams by the system multiple...

  12. HESI disaster!

    Jaysie1 replied to Jaysie1's topic in General Students

    We were given the choice of bringing a laptop or taking the exam in one of the labs. It seems like the Evolve servers were just overloaded. I know they canceled HESI exams for a few hours the next...

  13. University of MD CNL Spring 2011 applicants

    Jaysie1 replied to hmbarnes1981's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Congratulations on your acceptance! Life during the first semester is quite intense, as I'm sure you have already heard, but it is 100% manageable with the right support from home and the right CNL...

  16. Do you wear your white shoes on the street?

    Jaysie1 posted a topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Strange question from a first semester nursing student (aka: me). Do you wear your all-white nursing shoes out on the street or change into them when you get to school/work? I have a pretty good walk...

  18. Deciding between Dansko Kelsey & Nursemates Quantum: Weigh in!

    Jaysie1 replied to Jaysie1's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Thanks for the reply! In the end, neither style actually worked for me (Nursemates just didn't have enough support in the toes and arch, and Danskos were both extremely heavy and way too big on me)....

  19. Deciding between Dansko Kelsey & Nursemates Quantum: Weigh in!

    Jaysie1 posted a topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Hi everyone! I am starting nursing school in the Fall, and like many other nursing students, am required to wear all-white, all-leather shoes with a back (meaning no clogs). I have relatively weak...
