1. 25 Funny Nursing Memes

   berryberries replied to Dwights_Bobblehead's topic in Humor

   The giving report meme always gets me. When I was in nursing school and as a new nurse I'd be giving a ridiculously detailed report, down to the patient's genetic make-up. Now it's like, "yeah this pt took their meds, they're not dead, they good. let...

   berryberries replied to BSN-Student's topic in School Programs

   Yeah! It was mostly because either the professors claim they were unable to teach the course but HCC still put them down as available professors! It was chaos. Also holy crap, that sounds terrible!! That sounds like my program except that HCC has no ...

   that's ridiculous. they really need to get their program more organized. i understand that a lot of nursing programs have their troubles, but HCC's nursing program even waits until AFTER class starts to fix anything. it's really unprofessional.

   Hey guys. I'm a current ADN student at HCC and I'm doing my peds/ob semester. I don't want to sound like a downer, but if you got rejected by HCC despite that you guys got better grades then I would think of that as a dodged bullet. HCC is ridiculou...

   berryberries replied to BSN-Student's topic in School Programs

   Honestly, I'm not sure! But seriously, if you don't get a reply by mid-May I would DEFINITELY start e-mailing/calling/visiting the campus because I've heard horror stories where people who haven't been selected for Pharmacology don't get e-mails. It ...

   berryberries replied to BSN-Student's topic in School Programs

   I took Pharmacology with Rix and passed with a B. A lot of my classmates passed too! However, avoid Wilheimma Rich and I heard only 9 people in her class passed. And barely! Actually, they should contact you pretty close a month after you turn in you...

   So far, I really like the program. I'm excited to have survived the first semester but I heard med-surg is the weed-out semester so I'm not going to relax just yet!! They accept over 100, yes! But keep in mind that the classes in total have room for...

    I had the same dealio too. I had to take Microbiology and A&P II after I applied but I was accepted! So if you have one, two or maybe even three classes left you should be good. I am currently in the program. 8) It's my second semester.

    To be honest, it may depend! My nursing classmates usually had all of their classes finished by the time they started. Some only had one of the classes left, but to be honest the more classes you've completed the better your chances!! 8)

    berryberries replied to ljchu's topic in Texas

    Thank you for the help!! I was so confused and I was afraid of showing up in scrubs to the wrong class lol So for the first 5 weeks we wear the black scrubs, yeah?

    berryberries replied to ljchu's topic in Texas

    Also, I am very confused. I thought the black scrubs were to be worn for the lab class, which I am assuming it's Fundamentals of Nursing (RNSG 1413) because of the 4 credit hours which only lab classes have. However, I am hearing different things. Do...
