1. Patients Say the Darnedest Things Nurses Week Contest

   ajw414 replied to Brian S.'s topic in General Nursing

   From a 5 year old patient at his well child visit while I took vitals... He held his arm at the elbow trying to get it as far from my reach as possible, "are you gonna shot me?!" ?

   Wow, I'm so sorry I never answered you. I ended up going to CCC. Hoping to graduate next June! Where did you end up?? Hope all is well!

   ajw414 replied to T1meK1ller's topic in Oregon

   Hey... as far as I know, no one has heard anything yet from the school or certified profile. I have done my physical and immunizations (I only needed the TB test and a varicella titer - no shot). I wanted to have them done so that it's not a rush a...

   By the way...have you joined the ASBN fall cohort page on FB yet?? You might have luck finding a roommate there :)

   Congrats on getting a spot in the fall cohort!! I accepted a spot in Clackamas' ADN program, but if OHSU called me next week, I'd take it! I'm also on the moderately likely list. Happy for you @Woofles!

6. Applicants to Portland area Nursing Programs for 2015

   ajw414 replied to mwpdx's topic in Oregon

   Hey! Yes, I had all of my pre-reqs finished when I applied, and all A's. It's my first year applying for nursing school. I applied at CCC, PCC, MHCC, and OHSU's ABSN program. I was accepted at CCC and waitlisted at PCC and OHSU. MHCC just flat o...

7. OHSU's Accelerated BSN 2015 cohort

   ajw414 replied to lmmccauley's topic in Oregon

   I agree with you 100%... I did a few pre-reqs at Clackamas, I enjoy working with everyone there, and I feel like they're very upfront with you about what their program is like, cost, etc. I'll have a much smaller loan and a much shorter commute (whi...

8. OHSU's Accelerated BSN 2015 cohort

   ajw414 replied to lmmccauley's topic in Oregon

   Wow, I'm surprised they gave you this much info. Both time I've called, they've been super secretive and won't tell me much of anything. Good to know. I'm not holding my breath, but I would love to get a call from them.

   MHCC didn't give me a number on their waitlist. Neither did PCC or OHSU. I think Clackamas is the only school that tells the 1-15 people on the waitlist to come to orientation (PCC might too...I don't remember).

10. OHSU's Accelerated BSN 2015 cohort

    ajw414 replied to lmmccauley's topic in Oregon

    I'm in the exact same boat. I got in to Clackamas' ADN program. Where are you going? If OHSU called me the day before, I'd still take the spot. I want sooooo badly to be in this ABSN program.

    ajw414 replied to lmmccauley's topic in Oregon

    Hey all! It's been a while. Have any of you heard of people being pulled from the alternate list? I've accept a spot in CCC's nursing program but would JUMP if I got a call from OHSU. Anyway.. just curious!

    I think we should start a FB group! Once someone has done that, please post so we can all join! I will try to do that this afternoon/evening if no one else has yet. Thanks!! :)

    This week has been crazy, so I haven't sent in my letter of intent. I planned on hand delivering it to the health admissions office on Monday on my lunch break.
