I was wondering if anyone has tried travel Nursing in Raleigh NC and what was your experience? What agency can you recommend? My two year anniversary as a Nurse is Sept 25th. I have 20 months experience as a Med Surg Nurse and I left to try home car...

It's interesting how we excuse rude behavior!

That is truly sad and embarrassing to the profession. She should be reported to EVERYBODY you can report her to. I would!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have to add that one of my relatives attends Central and she would not have gone anywhere else. She is very happy with the education she is receiving and has not had any prejudices shown to her or heard any complaints. She works in the medical fie...

The nurse called me later and said she found out two doses are needed. So I'll get another in thirty days.

Question. The instructions for the needed immunizations says we need two doses of varicella vacine. Kaiser says adults only need one dose. Has anyone one encountered this? How many doses did you all get or are gonna get?

Kaiser takes up to 15 business days. It helps if you call them a few times.

Time is really flying. Orientation is the week after next.

Don't feel bad. I have at least 10 years on you and I'm starting an RN program soon 8-):)

@SA2009 Where did you take your CPR Training? I received my Packet on Fri 4/23 and orientation is scheduled for May 25th.

I'm starting the Day program in the Fall of 2010. I received my packet on Friday 4/23. My orientation is May 25th. That's also the date I have to have my background check.

Call them. I needed to know when I would get accepted so I could decide to take an early retirement. They at least eventually told me that all letters go out on a certain date each month and they told me when they would be mailed. I received my confi...

Phi Theta Kappa has a chapter at each campus, East, Metro and West. You just have to have the 12 credit hours completed at Tri-C. I'm starting in the Fall of this year and am really looking forward to it. Good Luck.

Looks like you're ready to go. You can always fill up your schedule with psychology classes. Good Luck.

Make sure you check with admissions and records before hand to make sure you just need to take Physiology to get credit for A & P I and II.

Central has one of the best reputations for Practical Nursing in the area. They also have a high rate of students passing the NCLEX. At tri-c you have to actually work as an LPN for one year before you can apply for the Bridge to RN class. I wanted t...

Hi, I took A & P II on line. It was a fantastic course if you are able to study independently. We met 5 Saturdays for the semester to test and perform a lab. The week before the exam, we had an on line chat where the instructor told us what areas...

Thanks so much. Nursing is definitely your calling:yeah:

How soon can we get our background check?

Thanks so much for the info regarding the actual nursing classes, clinicals, and labs. I'm scheduled to begin Fall 2010 and your info really helped me.

Thank you for inspiring me to pursue my dream. I've retired from one career and will be pursueing nursing as a second career. It's something I've always wanted to do. I'll be a bit older than most nursing students but so what. I can't wait to begin...

Why not ask your questions in this forum? They might help someone else.

I got the call also to start in the spring at Parma but I've already planned my life around starting in the Fall so I'll just wait. My daughter is starting LPN school in the spring and I promised to be her babysitter until I start in the Fall. Let me...

I had an interesting experience. I had taken the NET previously about 4 years ago and everything I needed was taken care of (all of the pre-req's) but they changed the Math from 1141 to 1200. I took 1200 over the summer, called the nursing dept, conf...
