  1. Looking for a few good vibes

    It's frustrating isn't it! I'm so glad you found the one though. If it turns out not to be the "one" one, then at least you've got the experience they all claim to be looking for in order to get...
  2. Well, unfortunately, I have only done A&P so far. We cover Patho in second year (and I've heard it's tough) and Micro in third year. What to study can depend on the instructor. For A&P we...
  3. Hi rosy3, I'm at Humber now, just finished my first year in the direct entry program. Congrats on your acceptance! I suspect your prep semester of A&P is very different from ours, since we...
  4. Unit Clerk's current job demands in Ontario?

    My med terminology was actually required for a previous job in travel health insurance so I didn't have to take it as a special course, it was administered by our medical director. Honestly, from...
  5. Unit Clerk's current job demands in Ontario?

    I didn't even know there was a certificate for it. I certainly don't have one and none of the postings I've seen have asked for one. It can be tough to get the job with no experience, your best bet...
  6. Unit Clerk's current job demands in Ontario?

    Here's the actual job description from the hospital website for an idea. Sounds similar to what you did edimo. Responsibilities: Duties will include a variety of reception and clerical functions...
  7. Unit Clerk's current job demands in Ontario?

    Well, it depends on which Ontario you mean. Ontario, Canada or Ontario, California :) I'm in Ontario, Canada and also just finishing up my first year this week. (Good luck on exams by the way!) I...
  8. Whiners in the classroom?!?!?!

    Yeah, it's not just you. I may make my own complaints, I think all of us do. But the one that always drives me nuts is about something not being covered in lecture or not being well understood. Or...

    Congratulations nurse emmy! Welcome to Humber :) I'm in first year of the full four year program so we're on slightly different paths but if you have any questions, let me
  10. Opinion on Humber College RN program

    Hmmm....I had to go check out what I bought. The philosophy & literature texts are based on my elective choices. I was out of school for 10 years before starting back this year. It's scary and...
  11. Opinion on Humber College RN program

    I don't know that I'd say Humber was any easier than anywhere else. The pass requirement are pretty stringent and there's really no pleading for clemency. Based on some quick math I did at the start...
  12. Opinion on Humber College RN program

    I looked into the same thing. A hiring manager doesn't care if it's a BN or BSCN, as long as you completed an approved program in the province and have successfully passed your CRNE, then you're an...
  13. Opinion on Humber College RN program

    Hi sevillje, I started this year with BosRMT so will likely have similar advice. She already gave you the names of the courses you'll take in first year. Here's what you need to know about them...
  14. When will people learn NOT to say the "Q" word...

    100% agree! I work in a 24/7 call centre while getting ready to start nursing school in September. I should never be made to work the evening or night shift when nurse T is on call. It never fails....
  15. 17 yr old hep b vaccine and titers....still around?

    I was terrified of having to deal with my Hep B series. I had the first of 3 in high school almost 15 years ago. Got head to toe hives. My Dr at the time told me that I was at low risk of infection...
  16. I'll be headed over. Now that I've been accepted, I feel like there's so much i want to know. Is anyone else going to head out to Humber this
  17. Humber Open House this weekend

    At the end of your education both schools prepare you to write the CRNE which would license you as a Registered Nurse. The education provided is equivalent knowledge base. As I understand it, Humber...
  18. Humber Open House this weekend

    Congratulations! I know you've been waiting to hear - that's fantastic! I'll be excited to "know" someone Now all that's left is to pay tuition, deal with immunizations, police record checks and...

    Thanks Bos! I know you're probably still pending a firm response - but any further info on your
  20. Opinion on Humber College RN program

    Thanks Kate! I'm a fast reader, so keeping up with the readings doesn't scare me so much - it's keeping up with the assignments! I'm a touch of a procrastinator and that's going to be a definite "no...
  21. Opinion on Humber College RN program

    Hi Kate - I'm so glad you came back to this thread. I've been accepted to the Humber-UNB collaborative program for the upcoming school year. Any tips? particularly for someone who's been out of...

  23. Applying to Humber BN program!

    Hi shabnamjaan! Welcome to Allnurses. Choosing a school is a tough thing to do, and very individual. For me, Humber was the most convenient in terms of commute. That was important to me because I...
  24. The Mockery of Nursing

    well, as a pre-nursing student, i have nothing to add just yet. except my own hysterical laughter i will say though, in just the last 4 or 5 months of reading, i've thought many of the same things. a...
  25. Applying to Humber BN program!

    The doc didn't say I couldn't have them done at the time. Only that if I was ever high risk and needed the other 2, I would be doing them in ER in case of anaphylaxis. So, I think regardless I'll be...
