    Riverside Community College Spring 2011

    lrobinson5 replied to lrobinson5's topic in California Nursing

    I had 75 points 2 semesters ago and didn't make it in. I talked to a few people on this site and they accepted a few alternates from either 80 or 85 points. They had a lot of people apply that time,...

    Riverside Community College Spring 2011

    lrobinson5 replied to lrobinson5's topic in California Nursing

    Yes, they do send you a denial letter with instructions on what to do next. They give a short list of other places to take it and tell you when the scores need to be submitted

    Lost and need some direction.......

    lrobinson5 replied to awise0003's topic in General Nursing

    I would appeal. If nothing else look at it this way: You're already not graduating as it stands, the worst outcome from the appeal is that they say no and you're in the same boat. I feel like it is...

    Riverside Community College Spring 2011

    lrobinson5 replied to lrobinson5's topic in California Nursing

    The last time I applied there was around 1,000 applicants! Pretty insane... I'm hoping we both make it too. Let me know if you are invited to take the TEAS and how many people they invite.

    Riverside Community College Spring 2011

    lrobinson5 replied to lrobinson5's topic in California Nursing

    I did apply for Spring 2010, and actually am glad I didn't make it in, I have a 9-month old and that's why I didn't apply for Fall. 75 points didn't make the cut for last Spring. Are you applying for...

    Maternity Insurance

    lrobinson5 replied to NightNurseRN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I THINK that if you have a policy with Kaiser Permanente they have free maternity care (all the prenatal visits, delivery, I think even childbirth classes, etc). I can't swear to this as I don't...

    very badly behaved ped client

    lrobinson5 replied to anon456's topic in General Nursing

    As I parent I would love to think that my child would be well behaved under any circumstance yada-yada. However, being that she was preschool-aged I have to give the parents a free pass, I can't...

    Don't Rough My Newborn Up!!!!!!!

    lrobinson5 replied to capribry's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I had the worst experience at the hospital when I had my second daughter. When I went inside the nursery to have the security bands removed, she spit up a little and swallowed it and I started patting...

    Does your nose run only at work?

    lrobinson5 replied to Kitty Hawk's topic in General Nursing

    There was a class I took in college (dev. psychology) and the MINUTE I would step into the room I would sneeze and my nose would run through the ENTIRE lecture. It was awful. I think it had to do with...

    I remember in my Microbiology class the instructor saying that it was more unlikely than most people think to transmit a disease through a needlestick accident. I hope that everything turns out for...

    Getting worse with experience??

    lrobinson5 replied to KSU-SN's topic in General Nursing

    I may not be a nurse yet, but my only advice to you is relax as much as possible. It is very plausible that you didn't do anything wrong. Sometimes a conversation is private from anyone not involved....

    Riverside community college nursing program spring 2010 acceptance/denial

    lrobinson5 replied to ERN STUDENT 55's topic in General Nursing

    To completely clarify, I was not accepted into the RN program for Spring 2010 and I received NO written notification (email or letter) to confirm this. RCC is the college I've always attended and they...

    (17 year old here. Help!) How to become a CRNA?

    lrobinson5 replied to VJDTropical's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    To my understanding it takes quite a while to get into a CRNA program. Just look at a few of the program requirements. A lot of them want you to have AT LEAST 2 years experience in an Adult ICU (or...

    RCC Fall 2009

    lrobinson5 replied to AloeBlox's topic in California Nursing

    I live in Moreno Valley but have always attended Riverside Community College's Riverside campus. I wasn't able to apply to any of the CSU's in the area so the only place I applied was RCC, which was...

    RCC Fall 2009

    lrobinson5 replied to AloeBlox's topic in California Nursing

    I just don't know what to do now... It's not like it will be any better next semester. I don't think I should wait around, but at the same time I can't afford private schools and at this rate I'll...

    RCC Fall 2009

    lrobinson5 replied to AloeBlox's topic in California Nursing

    Thanks for your kind words but I think it's pretty clear that I haven't even made it as an alternate... I was just hanging on to some hope that maybe they didn't send the email and were instead going...

    RCC Fall 2009

    I talked with the enrollment technician and he said that they should have all the letters sent out by tomorrow, so hopefully I get good news in the mail by Monday

    RCC Fall 2009

    lrobinson5 replied to AloeBlox's topic in California Nursing

    So still no word from RCC... I am wondering if I should go in and ask, or maybe just try to wait longer. They will at least let you know if you didn't make it in right? I hate the not knowing more...

    lrobinson5 replied to Virgo_RN's topic in Emergency

    I don't have any suggestions from experience, but I do hope that things turn around for you. You sound like you really do care about the patients in need, and I can see why it would be VERY...

    What's up with all of these sharp beds?

    lrobinson5 replied to KungFuFtr's topic in Emergency

    That's a tough call. I know there have been very embarrassing injuries my 3-year-old has had to go to the ER for. It is embarrassing because you constantly worry about what people will think of you,...

    lrobinson5 replied to ohcomeon's topic in General Nursing

    First off... congratulations! I know I would have just as much excitement, curiosity, and maybe even cold feet if I were in your situation. Of course the cold feet are not serious, because when you...

    RCC Fall 2009

    lrobinson5 replied to AloeBlox's topic in California Nursing

    I suppose you could say they are unorganized, but it still is a brand new system so I'm giving them some slack. Not to mention they offered students the TEAS test for free, which we just got the...
