Lynn, I would assume that you'd be using the 8th Ed of Perry & Potter, though it is not definite.... I would wait for orientation, it's only a week from today. There will be used books for sale by the 2nd year students at orientation. As far as ...

Hi @kidzpastorlynn, I have just graduated from this progam and what you heard is true: the summer bridge program IS important to take and it takes A LOT of discipline to get through it. It will cover essentially the whole Fundamentals book with ext...

So this was from our reading list/schedule. I dont have the exact titles of the chapters because I no longer have the Fundamentals book, however this will most likely be what you will cover as well. -The Client & Healthcare envronment -Critical T...

we used the 7th edition and the book that you guys have is the 8th edition make sure the chapters line up.

Our uniforms are from Dove. They come in zippered or button form, we will have some uniforms at the raffle as well.

Nursing Notes can be useful. the second page wouldn't scan clearly but it goes over Tier 1 & 2 of the CDC Precautions.

I have the Med-surg ebook and I don't like it much. We didn't have the option for ebooks, however our class as a general consensus prefers actual text books.

I too purchased my books through amazon and saved a lot of money doing so. And the bundle doesn't include the recommended books. :)

the summer program is great for several reasons: 1. discipline: for those who need that push to work/read when you have the propensity to slack on your own. 2. critical thinking: you will be tested in the style that you will see on every ...

Yes, we used Perry & Potter Fundamentals 7th edition 2008. good luck!

This might be a good time to mention to make an appointment with your doctor. there are health documentation you need for the program and they are very specific to what you need. you will need: a physical exam, titers drawn (for TDAP, MMR, Varicell...

I don't recall getting a schedule at orientation, that was later mailed to us shortly before the fall started. it looks like there might be a shift in the schedule according to the Merritt Fall Schedule. As I remember, plan on being on campus every...

They'll give all the information for that class and the required materials at orientation.

The summer class is a face paced program that will get you prepared for Fundamentals. You will read the book, and other books like the Hogan R&R, and DDC. Do practice questions and get tested on material. Your grade is based on work completed, no...

You should study the "Dosage Calculations" by Gloria Pickar 8th edition, i don't think they will be changing the book for this incoming semester and you'll find out for sure on orientation June 5th. I felt the material was easier in this book than t...

Hello c/o '14, I am entering my second year as well, with Chris SN. there was a question about having to retake DDC if you already took it at CCC: you will have to retake it or have to test out. I too, took Drug dosage at contra costa and they woul...

Hey ThatGuy, There are a lot of things you can do: refine your individual study habits, get organized, find a study group, do practice Nclex questions wherever you can find them, pay attention to what the instructors say is "important" (most likely y...

as a student who stuck with it, I'm doing good... better than okay. I am enjoying it. However, It is and can be frustrating and ridiculous at times, but I am striving and getting there. my classmates make a huge difference in this respect, I would...
