Clinicals start later.

According to Becks, booklist should be confirmed by the school in a week.

Was I the only one that didn't get an update. We received the book list a couple weeks ago. I stopped into the Nursing Dept to get a print out today. Only to be told that the book list has not been finalized and if I went to Becks to purchase, the...

Just got a call from the uniform store. My uniform is ready to be picked up. The closer it gets to Aug 20th the more real it becomes : )

Have informed by a 2nd year nursing student, that you pull a number out of a box. Then students register in order of the number they pulled.

Registration is during finals, what are they thinking?????

@lungu2007, how much was all the books on Amazon? The pack at Becks is approx$1,100.

FYI, Just ordered at Truman and was told females had to have female tops, not unisex.

Got the background check email from District and one from the background company also. Called Truman Nursing Dept and Ms. Walker stated she wasn't aware and would followup with me after speaking to Dr. Gurney.

Was chatting w/ a 2nd yr nurse student. She recommended I get 1 uniform & lab coat/jacket. However, she is getting a 2nd set this yr, since clinicals are 2 days a week, 12hrs. I have issues : ) so, I will get 2 sets this yr.

@xMooxMoo. The checklist does give the drugs on the 10 panel. However, I assumed (incorrectly) 10-panel was the same everywhere. My lab also took blood for the TCA (Trycyclic anti-depressants) and stated that is the only way they test for it, but...

Omg!!!!!!!!! At Truman, tried turning in my packet, only to be told my 10 panel drug test didn't include methanphatamines, didn't make copy of my CPR card, didn't bring checklist and didn't have actual lab results attached for titers.

I just dropped off my payment at the the City of Evanston Fire Dept and I confirmed it is the course for health care providers. It should be acceptable.

Buenos all! Tried the link for the background check I used when submitting application and it didn't work, not sure if they want us to use the same agency. Can anyone confirm? I also called today inquiring about the books and if it is the same bundl...
