I am a PCNA in the float pool at CC main campus, and there were mostly ADN nurses in my orientation in October 2013. A majority went to Tri-C. I have also met a lot of Tri-C grads all over main campus.

It depends. Typically if I'm working the floor I have 12-24 patients (Q4 vitals, call lights, 6am weights, blood sugars, I&O'S, hourly rounding and charting) So if I'm lucky I get an hour or two total (not including my half hour lunch, and adding all of the times I get to sit down together.) There would probably be less down time If I were permanently on a specific unit, since stocking and cleaning is always needed. However, since I am in the float pool I end up sitting about 75%+ of the time. In that case I have a ton of down time, usually almost the whole shift.

Patient Care Nursing Assistant Located in Cleveland, Ohio $11.70 hourly $1 extra for 2nd and 3rd shift I work nights - either 7p-730a or 11p-730a I am in the float pool at a major hospital and can be sent to any of 32 units. 1.5 years experience Full-time Currently transfering nursing programs (Moved to Ohio from PA after my 1st semester of nursing classes)

Just got a job at a hospital in north east Ohio. They are starting me at 11.70/hr with $1.00 shift differential for working nights. I have 1 year of previous experience working in a hospital.

Allegheny night students ... we finally have access to our classes on Blackboard! Now if we only had our textbooks. :)

Does anyone who went to the Allegheny campus orientation today happen to have the link to the nursing videos we need to watch? Thanks!

I am in the evening program and also only had the option to pick a clinical day. I am taking the optional drug calculation course too. So I'll be in class Monday 5:30-9:30, Wednesday Clinical 3-11, and Thursday 3-1030!

Did anyone else get a uniform price list in their packet? I read that it was supposed to be enclosed, but all I received was an important date overview and a packet with all of the forms that we need.

To answer an earlier question ... I have a 4.0 with A&P 1 and 2 complete (which would give me a 5.75 out of 6.25 based on CCAC's points program). I'm currently taking Micro and Algebra 108. I got accepted into the Allegheny evening program, and only have English 102 left to complete after this semester. I turned in my application on the last day, so that doesn't have anything to do with acceptance. I hope that anyone who got a denial letter either appeals or applies for fall! Good luck to you all.

Yep, thank you!
