    How was everyone's first day? Was it what you expected? I am still pretty nervous about juggling work and school but I know it's possible if I work

    You can use your student ID and schedule I know but I'm not sure about your DL. Is the badge different from our student ID? I was planning on just getting a badge holder for my ID because I thought...

    I am going to try to go Monday afternoon close to the end of the day or flex time and go on my lunch break. Thanks for the well wishes! Hopefully I can get what I need and be out fast. I wish they had...

    That's the same email I have too, Allonsy. I think it's for people who bought the book used and it's a previous edition. As long as we have the fundamentals book we should be fine. I am going to get...

    Is everyone wearing their uniforms the first day? I don't think it's mandatory but I don't want to be the only one not wearing it if most people

    You don't have to have it yet but when they come in we will have to get one. My Dr. just made a note on my form that it's not in season yet. I signed the waiver also but I will get it and upload it to...

    Only a few more days! I am super nervous! Did anyone else have a delay in the background and health fees being taken from their bank accounts? Mine finally went through yesterday after almost two...

    I have the Classic II S.E. On the Littmann site it has a profession selector to suggest one and that's one of the ones that came up for nursing. I have also heard the same about jewelry and perfumes....

    My hubby bought me a Littmann a month or so ago. Working as a CNA previously I would say to splurge if you can for a good one. Taking manual blood pressures and patient assessments are hard to do if...

    alblove replied to alblove's topic in Alabama Nursing

    I've heard that too about orientation. Basically they tell you how difficult it will be and that not everyone will make it. If we have made it this far I know we can make it all the way! I just bought...

    I bought a pair of Dansko clogs from The Walking Company. They are so comfortable! Ugly though,

    We should start with everyone else on the 18th. The closer it gets to August, the more nervous I am! I'm trying to do as much as I can before orientation so I'm not rushing at the last minute and it's...

    alblove replied to alblove's topic in Alabama Nursing

    That's a lot cheaper! If it's the same books and versions (not a calhoun specific one) I am definitely going through amazon. Are we going to have to buy this many books every semester? If so I see all...

    Maybe we could make a Facebook group or a group on here if there is an option. I'm Adina Breedlove

    I'm nervous and scared too. I think we will all be fine though. We can do this! I can't wait to hopefully meet everyone at orientation!

    It was the same for me and the chicken pox. I think as long as you get the titer to show immunity you are fine. I'm 28 so I'm starting late also. There's nothing wrong with a career change later in...

    I started on them earlier this year but the tb test is two weeks and the hepatitis shots are every couple of months but as long as you start the hepatitis series you're fine. I still have to go back...

    I am getting nervous about everything and having it all together in time. I wonder how much time they will give us to have everything turned in after orientation? I wish it was a lot sooner. I hate...

    I have used it to rent a book before and it was easy. Just keep the box and print off a label at the end of the semester and you're done. Sometimes they even offer an ebook you can use until yours...

    I'm doing the PTE program with Health Assessment and Pharmacology the first semester but they are listed as 1 credit hour each so I would only be billed for 2 hours right? I will probably have to take...

    I'm not sure of all the details for the nursing club but I think you get the option to join during your first semester. How many uniforms should we buy? I am doing PTE so I'm thinking two should be...
