Afternoon all, I am an RN of 5 years now. I went into dialysis after nursing school and have been trucking along with the last 3 years as a clinical nurse manager at an outpatient dialysis clinic. I have always loved it, but now I have found that I w...

Thank you! I will look into both. Thank you. I have no doubt that I can pick skills back up quickly and learn something new, it is just getting someone to give me that chance you know. You tube is a good idea. Thanks!

I'm getting ready to apply for the RN program at Lone Star College in Kingwood this year. I'm finishing up prereqs this semester and I'll be taking the HESI A2 in about a month. I've never attempted this test before so any and all information you cou...

Anyone else applying this summer to LoneStar-Kingwood for Jan. start? Just trying to see if I could find anyone in the same boat as me! :) I apologize if there is already a thread for this...I searched and couldn't find one.

So sorry to hear this! Hope you recover quickly and good luck in the future!!

That's crazy! I wonder why they wouldn't make sure there were enough? They know how many students there's going to be. I hope they come in quick for those that still need them.

Of course!

Stacey and Jennifer I added you guys. Lee Ann, it's not letting me add you because you're not on my friend's list. So you'll have to request to be added I think.

LSC-Kingwood Nursing Class 2014 Ok, there's the link to the group! And I'm not sure if you have to add me first or not since I started it, but just in case my name is Sarina Padgett. ETA- Actually I think I have to add people so just give me names an...

I've searched and can't find anything but previous class ones. I'll see if I can figure out how to start one!

How would you guys feel about creating a facebook page for our Kwood nursing class? I've noticed that a few of the previous classes have made one as a quick way to communicate about school stuff. I don't know if all you guys even use facebook, but it...

Did you get yours from the scrub store? I don't remember which I got..the lady didn't give me a choice, she just handed me some. Lol

Yes, it's in the kit! Sorry Maybe you can sell one or the other!

JennBU06, The book kit is at the bookstore and it is approx. $570. There is also an extra book not included in the kit that is around $100 that we will need. The papers given to us at orientation also showed a drug book that looks like it's not incl...

Are you quest or basic? I thought they were different?! Lol And if you're Kingwood we do not were scrubs for the mini next week. We only wear scrubs on clinical days at the hospital. I emailed the director yesterday and she said next week we'll need ...

iamleeann, I know there was something about nursing homes and I'm pretty sure they are an option as far as a clinical site. But, I don't remember anything specifically about it being the first one. ikegrad2002, I think the medical center is an optio...

Nevermind, I don't think LBJ is in the medical center. Just looked it up! Lol

Actually, I think they do unless they've changed it! A friend of mine graduated from kwood a few years ago and her hospitals were kwood, northeast, Triumph on 1960 and LBJ (which is downtown, I believe..could be wrong though.) I'm hoping for ones clo...

Gosh I'm getting nervous about next week! Lol

Does anyone know when we'll find out which hospital we're at?

Yes, I was surprised that we needed our stethoscope so soon! But sounds like fun! I haven't taken any classes other than the ADN ones so far so I think next summer I'm going to start taking a few of the BSN core classes online since we won't have cl...

ness27, I am in the Basic Track and my book kit included the same Maternity book by Ricci and my list showed one by Orshan. I saw that yesterday too! I bet they probably just changed books though.

What I'm confused about is WHAT exactly to have to have done in order to apply for their BSN program. I have only taken the classes for LSC's ADN so I know there are a lot more I need to take. I just don't know if all the core classes (2 histories, g...

Also, they returned my email about what we'll need next week (Kingwood). We need the Taylor Nursing Skills book and a stethoscope. That book is part of the book kit.
