I just registered for classes! Getting excited! Where are all the others out there starting in Oct.?

I think it's going well! A little overwhelming. Organization is key! A quiz this week already, and assigned 2 presentations, but hopefully getting a good study group going! Of course, my response may change by week 3! LOL

Page 717, box 27-4, chapter 27 in Taylor's fundamentals: review room assignments carefully, place patients who may contaminate the environment in private rooms (such as a incontinent patient). Hope this helps! :) (I just happen to be reading it and...

:) Syllabi packets are now available!!!:)

:)Thanks Orna01! I'll take your advice! I have been enjoying the long summer!! Good luck in your classes and Midterms!!!

:) I saw some "smurfs" walking the campus today! Let's here how your first(almost) 2 weeks of school have been. I'm Oct. and am dying to hear how it's going!:)

:) It feels so good to be done with the HHSC class!!!! Thank God it wasn't as awful as I feared! Now I'm going to get all those titers/shots taken care of and spend some time with family, before I no longer have time!!! Enjoy your next 8 weeks all!...

I wouldn't call the HESI easy, but very do-able. The nerves will get you every time, just take a deep breath and know you can do it! I do suggest the HESI study guide, I found it extremely helpful! I remember some vocab. came right out of the book! ...

I had a little trouble finding out how to get the personal medical record started too. I did get the book Using The Electronic Health Record (it was recommended) and on Page 180-184 it talked all about PHR (personal health record), I'm assuming is t...

The nurse pac is $89 and it contains IV tubing, catheter tubing, an IV bag and various other stuff needed for labs. I was able to see one that they had behind the counter. It's all wrapped up and not for sale. LauJen, if you decide to rent books fo...

I have a seminar in Aug. called Intro. to the Profession of Nur. (3 days, 8:00-4:00) *must pass to start classes for the fall! Then I start in Oct. Health Assessment in Nursing (theory class) Health Assessment skills in Nursing (lab) Fundamentals of ...

I don't know about the scrubs, but anyone having any luck getting a personal medical record going? I'm not quite sure what it is, but I was hoping there was some sort of outline of one or template you could follow.

Hi Kim, No it looks like I was approved for $1750, but because I'll only have 6 credits for the fall I only get $1000. Sucks big time! Personally, I feel I get very little help at financial aid. I was told to look elsewhere if I need more. Since ...

No I didn't get anything yet. I finally got my financial aid loan on Fri. I was sweating that one! Today I'm off to sign the papers, I might call the bookstore too. They didn't have any of the books yet last week. I"ll check into that. P.S. I d...

I did the same thing. I tried to buy the books for HHSC and they told me try next week. I just was nervous with all the assignments to do that I thought I should get started on the reading. I'm trying again Monday after I meet with Financial Aid.

Forensicmi, I got your PM but I can't respond to it, because I don"t have privileges yet. Maybe after this post. My name is Jessica.:)

Hi forensicmi. I think we may be the only Oct. Starts! LOL. I'm all registered, but have nothing yet done. (Titers,etc.) How about you?

If you still have the instructor's email, it wouldn't hurt to try. The fee may be less than a full course somewhere else.:)

Did you take this course with Jenuwine? You have a 30 day grace once you expire and we were told you can get recertified with this instructor for a small fee.

I also am a Oct. start. So excited.:)

Yes, I'm in M-TH too. See you Mon.!:)

Hi everyone! I too was a bit discouraged by the orientation (doom and gloom), but I'm not going to let it get to me. I'm probably an August start but am requesting Oct. so for all those hoping for Aug. there's one spot open!! Good luck with all your ...

I think it was some scare tactics for those that are looking for a quick career. I knew this was a tough program, but she needed to ease up on the doom and gloom. A few more positives would have been nice! I'm bummed about not having a pinning cere...

My head was swimming with all the info. I left still excited to start, but a little sick with worry. I have four kids (all in school, but young) and is it me or is the new class load a little bit heavier than anybody anticipated? Anyway, I did lik...
