1. New Nurse PICC line question

   Josephkey14 posted a topic in New Nurse

   So, 5 weeks into nursing. I was asked to cap a picc line after TPN was completed. I removed the wrong line and the line fell on the floor. I figured I would just scrub it with alcohol pad for 15 seconds and reattach to the picc line. Now that I'm hom...

   Hey guys! So, the big graduating moment is a few months ahead of me and I started writing my cover letter. I want to get some non-bias feedback on this particular paragraph because I have little experience (none) writing a cover letter for a professi...

   Josephkey14 replied to r2ellie's topic in School Programs

   Youll need a steth, blood pressure cuff, penlight, and scissors. Just get a steth that works for the program at the least. Littmans are the name brand steth among HCP's and are of the best known quality. It all depends on your budget of course, just ...

   I have never bought any books for the program. I either find them online, or use some older texts from other nurses I know. There is two mandatory uniforms. One polo, scrub top, and scrub bottoms. Maybe $75 all together for all three. Also, you need ...

   Hey, I only remember paying the one deposit for the program which was due by March 1st. I dont know if things have changed. Btw, you'd probably be better off calling. The director is one of the busiest people I'm aware of in the whole program, so its...

   Josephkey14 replied to r2ellie's topic in School Programs

   Hey r2ellie, I should start off by saying I am a prior Brockport grad. So, the transition wasn't as much of a shock as it was at first. Coming from the city, expect to feel a bit of a culture shock. Since I had some experience in the area, I already ...

    Hey everyone, Congrats on being accepted! I am currently in the graduating 2016 cohort and I would have loved for someone to ask questions about the program etc last year. So, if you guys have any just ask. I moved here from Brooklyn, original Long ...

    Hey, I applied to LIU as well and both are required. Even if you included your essay in the application, send it via mail as well. Wait for the email that tells you the address to forward your supplemental information to.

    Josephkey14 replied to Josephkey14's topic in New York

    Thanks so much for the response. I'm not sure where I would be on the list because my letter said specifically that there is an unranked waitlist - which makes me more nervous than hopeful. But after seeing this post from Applesauce520, I'm not so su...

    Josephkey14 replied to Josephkey14's topic in New York

    Hi, I recently received a letter that said I was waitlisted if I chose to be. I chose to be waitlisted, but was curious if anyone else was waitlisted as well? I'm not sure how much I should expect an acceptance later down the road without knowing how...

    Josephkey14 replied to jseg04's topic in New York

    @FredWurlitzer I was curious how the clinicals were? Such as, how were your clinical instructors, were they eager to teach and happy to have you with them? How many hours of clinical rotation did you/do you expect to complete with at the end of the ...
