1. SCC SUMMER BLOCK 4?

   on_the_path replied to AndeeRN2b's topic in Arizona Nursing

   I completed Block 3 over the summer at SCC. I would definitely say it was grueling. Lectures were very long, we are talking about 8-10 hour long lecture days at times. And we had some weeks where we...

2. How far would you drive?

   on_the_path replied to alliesweetie14's topic in Arizona Nursing

   I would seriously think about it. I drove from the area around San Tan Village in Gilbert to SCC during my time in nursing school. It seemed like fate threw in an extra hurdle when they decided to rip...

   on_the_path replied to mrsboots87's topic in Arizona Nursing

   I think they are interviewing the candidates with a previous/existing relationship with Mayo first. I know someone who works there that also has an interview next

4. Career Change

   on_the_path replied to RizzoRazz's topic in Arizona Nursing

   Here are my two cents for what they are worth to you: I am in my early thirties, and needed a career change (last 11 years spent in allied health) into something that could pay better than what I am...

   on_the_path replied to mrsboots87's topic in Arizona Nursing

   Yes, they offer it twice a year. I believe the other start date is in July, but I forgot when the application process for it begins. You either have to keep watching their site or click on the link...

6. Mayo New Grad RN Residency program (Feb/2016)

   on_the_path replied to mrsboots87's topic in Arizona Nursing

   I applied for both, but I only had 100 hours of critical care experience if I counted up my clinical rotations, I don't work in an ICU or anything like that. I wonder if they extend offers in December...

7. Mayo New Grad RN Residency program (Feb/2016)

   on_the_path replied to mrsboots87's topic in Arizona Nursing

   I also applied for this, as I also graduate in December. Do you know how long it typically takes to hear if you get an interview? I would be very excited to start my nursing career at Mayo, but I'm...

8. Is it just me?

   on_the_path replied to 1_fit_male_nurse2b's topic in Arizona Nursing

   Here you go. I don't own the image, if you search "male nurse symbol" in Google images, it's the third image that pops up. I've always thought it was pretty

   I'm glad I could give you some ideas. If you are severely hard of hearing, Littmann also makes an electronic stethoscope where you can adjust the VOLUME on it! We have 2 students that have hearing...

10. Is it just me?

    on_the_path replied to 1_fit_male_nurse2b's topic in Arizona Nursing

    First off, I am very sorry to hear about what you are going through right now. That said, one of the things they are CONSTANTLY telling us at SCC is to "BE FLEXIBLE!". At first us students joked about...

11. Job Market?

    on_the_path replied to Sunkissed13's topic in Arizona Nursing

    From what everyone has been telling me, things have been getting better. I had a co-worker get her ADN in Dec 2013 and it took her 8 months to find a job, not directly in the hospital. Fast forward a...

    on_the_path replied to amwrootbeer's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Hello, I'm currently a student in Block 4 at SCC. As far as nursing gifts for Christmas, I would honestly ask for an Amazon.com giftcard! I remember the bookstore wanted close to $1000 for the books...
