  3. Chabot RN Program Fall 2018

    I applied to Contra Costa and Ohlone also. I know letters were sent out for CC and haven't received one so I don't think I got in .

  6. Contra Costa Nursing fall 2018

  7. Contra Costa Nursing fall 2018

    I'm so surprised there are no responses on this thread. ������ I tried to call the CC nursing office today but no one answered every time I called...I hope this just...

    I am nervous as well - especially since I haven't heard anything yet and prior year students said they found out around the first of April.... Has anyone heard anything from

    You do realize that that would be unethical
  11. C/s incision dressing removal

    Hi all! When does the c-s incision dressing typically get removed in your facility, and by who? Just curious :) As a relatively new RN sometimes I find myself hung up on small things like this lol....
  12. The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    Rusti1, I think you are illustrating my original point way better than I every could. Out of respect for the OP, I will take my own advice and forgo any further attempt to reeducate you or your fellow...
  13. The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    And rusti1, the issue isn't anyone trying to prevent me or others from vaccinating - it's a growing number of people NOT vaccinating and putting others at risk needlessly. The fact that your "idea" of...
  14. The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    I apologize if you see my remarks as "inflammatory" but I do not. I always make it a point to be respectful of the opinions of others, but this particular debate really infuriates me because this is...
  15. The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

    It's clear to me that leftflank pain and rusti1 (who don't seem to even be RNs) are avid anti-Vaxers here just to push their misinformed, conspiracy-driven, fear-mongering message that all vaccines...
  16. The way I see it, making vaccinations mandatory for public school will have an overall beneficial effect for society as a whole. 1.) It will help to maintain the high vaccination rate needed to...
  17. You say you've "studied vaccines" for a long time - what do you mean by studied? Are you an immunologist? Chemist? Any sort of actual medicL research
  18. I am over the moon about this. To me this is a no brainier - vaccines WORK, and they should be required for the good of all. It just boggles my mind how there are so many against vaccines - and they...
  19. ADVICE: Do I have a chance getting a L&D New Grad position????

    I think it depends on where you live. For example, here in the CA Bay Area precepting in L&D is vital for landing an L&D job in the area - there are just so many other candidates with not only...
  20. Hello, I am excited to report that I will be interviewing for a spot on my dream unit in my dream hospital next week - a hospital that is only 10 minutes away from my home! (I previously worked 3+ hrs...
  21. I definitely won't volunteer the information...but what do I say if they specifically ask about my "current" job? I am no longer employed at my first job and I haven't started the other one so I now...
  22. Thanks for the input organizedchaos and Caliotter! My big concern is this: I have already done all the new hire stuff at the first hospital so am just waiting to officially start...so I'm thinking if...
  23. Seeking new job; Less than 6 months experience

    Is there any way you could stick it out to the 6 month mark? This is the minimum amount of experience required for a lot of hospitals to even consider you for a non new-grad
  24. Hello all, I am feeling devastated and am hoping for some feedback... I recently applied for an RN position at one of my "dream" hospitals, and was thrilled to receive an interview request the day...
  25. App error - do I till have even a tiny chance of getting the job???

    Thank you all for your feedback and advice. I was able to reach the recruiter and was told that they still want to interview me! I am beyond relieved, and even though I may have weakened my position...
