I took PSC 101, HIST 101, and Hist 102 at CSN. I did HIST 101 and 102 in the summer with different instructors. They were both easier than PSC 101, but check out the instructors for HIST at CSN because one was almost too easy. I had the course pretty...

Thanks so much for your response! This was just the the type of guidance I was hoping for. My patient is a bit out of the recommended age for N-PASS, but it is the one I chose to use because of the sedation portion. I have a kazillion nursing books s...

Hi, I am writing a careplan for a 6-month-old patient who has had cranial reconstruction to correct craniosynostosis. I'm having some trouble with my as evidenced by. I need to list three and my patient is sedated, so I can't really use the FLACC sc...

I didn't take your response as rude. It was very much appreciated. You are absolutely correct in believing that my instructor will be looking for my nursing diagnoses to be prioritized. And in providing care, I recognize that there are higher priorit...

I can appreciate your experience, as I obviously have very little. This was the only time I've been to the PICU and the only time I've seen craniosynostis. It was frontal-orbital advancement, but I was under the impression that all craniosynostosis p...

I'm not looking for answers as much as guidance from someone with experience. My care plan is finished except for the acute pain portion, which is what I'm having trouble with. The patient is sedated and on pain meds. Pain is subjective and in an inf...

I am in the 4th semester of the extended track and 1st semester courses are the same for everyone. We drew numbers at orientation, but PT got to choose their schedule before FT, so our choices were very good. Beyond first semester, PT courses were po...

Congrats! That's a big move. I've only heard good things about Sunrise, except I think they had a big layoff back in May of around 150 people. I don't know the details, but it was all over the local news.

They are not clogs. And my program doesn't accept clogs either. These shoes definitely have a back.

I ended up getting Timberland Pro in white Amazon.com: Timberland Professional Women's Renova Slip-On: Shoes They are super comfortable but a bit expensive

I have the same exact shoes...my nursing program didn't accept them

It does depend on you and your situation. Online for the first semester is doable (I'm doing it), but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. One of the instructors is exclusively online (also does pharm onine) and I think her recorded lectures are a comp...

I was lucky enough to get in BIOL189 on the non-payment purge a couple of years ago. I'm not sure if it's possible to even do that anymore since the system has changed. I took all of my sciences at CSN, but from what I hear Nevada State is the way t...

It wasn't bad, but pretty full. They go over everything you need to have done to participate in clinicals and the required uniforms and that type of stuff.

I don't know if there is a rule, but I saw a couple of kids in the back at the orientation I went to.

If you do happen to miss the vaccine clinic dates, you can go to either of the locations listed that green sheet. They charge the same fees listed, which are pretty cheap compared to other places and the cheapest place that I could find to get the he...

I am in part-time with 29 points...that may have been the cutoff for PT- not sure though

It does matter because if we wait the test will last through 2 semesters. They were VERY specific about the dates in orientation and also spoke about it in last month's nursing faculty meeting.

I hope you guys get your calls soon, but don't rush to get the tst and physical befor dec 22nd or you'll have to get it redone for next semester.

You too! I'm so excited and a bit overwhelmed at everything I need to pay for and get done before we start! Good Luck

No everyone is assigned a time/day (maybe they still rotate by last name), mine is on the 10th. I think your chances of getting what you need are pretty good since you get to register on the first day.

I have the same schedule :) I went ahead and put the Pharm and toolbox in my shopping cart. I don't know if it will hold them, but it appears as if some sections are already full. Nobody is able to register until tomorrow so nothing should be full un...

You have to register for all three, but you get to choose each. They aren't bundled together. You need NURS130, NURS130L, and NURS130C

Oh! Last week my instructor told me there are 7 week courses, too. Same thing...twice the work. I personally would rather do the long course, but I'm sure the 7 week is doable or it wouldn't exist. Best of luck to you!

I go to clinicals Mondays from 7am to 3 pm and lab on Thurs from 1-3:50 pm. This program has tons of days and times to choose from including weekends and evenings, but the online lecture fills up pretty quick. :)
