  1. Thanks kbk1985! Please definitely let me know... Yes the orientation will be held in Mcleod (S) building, room 002. It is on the bottom
  2. We will get it at orientation along with schedule for the
  3. Has anyone gotten their HC CPR certification yet? I got my physical awhile back but still need to do my CPR recert yet. Last year I trained with First Hands CPR. They charged $45, which was a lot...
  4. From what I remember hearing from other students who were alternates last semester many did not find out until closer to the start of the program (I'm thinking late June, early July.. not 100% sure)....
  5. Thanks for the info! Is 2nd semester all Med-Surg material? Or do you cover patho and med-surg in that semester? Thanks in
  6. Thanks for the update JNS. I think it really depends on availablitily of clinical instructors so it likely changes from semester to semester. Do you still have labs in 2nd semester? I know you had the...
  7. You will be able to list your preference but I'm not sure it guarantees your shift. The teachers try to accommodate based on needs not necessarily wants. But I don't think there were that many 6 hr...
  8. I found my box of nursing books & materials and was looking at my schedule from last year. I was in the afternoon (Day 2) section and just to give you a general idea here were the hours for the...
  9. I just have an all-white pair of Nike tennis shoes. Doesn't really matter what kind they are as long as they are all white and COMFORTABLE!
  10. It does not really matter what type of watch you use as long as it has a working second hand. I would try to look for something water resistant though since you wash your hands 9979767 times a day!
  11. Just want to add that 1st semester you also have to buy scrubs, stethoscope, all-white shoes, a watch for counting respirations, background check & drug screen, a physical and miscellaneous other...
  12. Yes you can still get fin aid as well as apply for student loans. You just won't get as much fin aid as you would if you were "full time". The award you get is adjusted for half time status for 1st...
  13. JNS is it true that you don't get any money back for fin aid or student loans for 2nd semester because it is 2 mini sessions less than half time? I am already worrying about how I will survive if...
  14. You can also go through CFCC and apply for a scholarship. Go to financial aid office and ask for the Health Sciences scholarship application during the application period (not sure when it is). Also,...
  15. I think it is only full time if you take the classes as they are listed on the schedule. Meaning you take all of your pre-reqs along with the nursing courses. Which would be impossible IMO.... unless...
  16. You can get the Hep B series at the Health Dept... 3 seperate injectons for the same vax, one month apart each. And yes I also highly recommend it. (did not get it last year, but I def will this...
  17. My big box of nursing books is somewhere around here. Just not sure where haha.. I will locate them soon. But if you want to know which books you need you can just go to cfcc.edu, click on bookstore...
  18. It may actually also depend on when you turn in the acceptance letter as well as what seat you have based on points whether you get morning or afternoon so really you never know. Plus at orientation,...
  19. At orientation in the summer, you will complete a registration form. After that, you will not need to do anything as far as registration goes. The Nursing department will handle your registration...
  20. I did the afternoon class last semester. It wasn't really up to me as it supposedly depends on where you are with your point count. But they do give you a chance to switch at orientation. Although...
  21. Awesome.. congrats!!! Are you guys doing the day or night program? The first half of the applicants let in for the day program get the morning class, the 2nd half gets the afternoon class for first...
  22. Congrats!! If anyone wants to get together and start looking over the Fundamentals book over the summer let me know! The first Unit test is given on the 3rd or 4th day of class! There are tests pretty...
  23. Congrats everyone! I agree with what was said about the alternates, I think most or all do get in! You can go up to CFCC and find out what number alternate you are. Also, definitely go to the...
  24. Just got my letter... I'm
