   annieob replied to PatchyPu's topic in New Nurse

   My facility has A LOT of documentation/transfers/protocol paperwork also. Something that has helped me is to use a binder instead of a clipboard to manage my paperwork. I use clear binder pockets (Staples® Clear Divider Pockets, 3-Hole Punched, 5 Set...

   annieob replied to jar312's topic in New Nurse

   I'm a new grad who started in July on a subacute rehab floor within a long-term care facility. It's a lot of ortho, stroke, COPD/CHF, failure to thrive, etc. kinds of rehab. It's definitely not my dream specialty, but there's a lot of good parts to i...

4. Any Potential Regis College Fall 2012 Students?

   annieob replied to RoImDreaming's topic in Massachusetts

   Has anyone update their application yet? I'm trying to decide what to do. The grades for three of my major pre-reqs (AP I, Micro and Chemistry) won't be out until the middle of May, and I'm afraid that might be holding my grades back. I'm not sure i...

   annieob replied to RoImDreaming's topic in Massachusetts

   @futurewh I hope I didn't come off as harsh! I was just sharing what I knew about the waitlist process from my friends experience. I was responding to the person who seemed unclear about what happened when you get waitlisted, because I know a lot of ...

9. A&P II and Micro in the summer - is it possible?

   annieob replied to Boxer Mama's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I am currently taking Microbiology, Chemistry and AP I. I am in class 4 days a week and it is very intense, but completely doable. If you are a disciplined student (like it seems!) then you should have no problem. AP II is obviously very difficult, b...

10. Should I give up:(

    annieob replied to FuturePedRN'15's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I won't lie to you. Your pre-requisite grades are incredibly important to a nursing program. Anatomy and Physiology give you the fundamentals that your nursing classes build on. An ADN program will be reluctant to take on a student who might be lacki...

    I also applied for regular decision at Regis and am waiting on my letter! I'm a little nervous because I hadn't gone far with my pre-requisites before applying (Ethics in college; Human Development at Regis over the January semester) but I am current...
