It was the "Clinical nursing skills DVD series", "Health & Physical Assessment Reviews and Rationale", "Pocket Companion for Nursing Health Assessment", and "Nursing Fundamentals Reviews and Rationale". They said they should be in soon, but weren't sure exactly when. You can order them online from the bookstore and have it shipped to you. I believe they charge a little for shipping but I figure I will probably spend the same amount in gas, if not more!

I went today and got the bundle, iclicker, and most of the other books that were not included the bundle. They didn't have maybe 4 of the ones on the required list and most of the recommended list, but said they were expecting whatever they didn't have yet to come in soon.

I had to double check on this myself. They are the same thing.

Ebay has bandage scissors, hemostats and penlights for cheap. I didn't buy a waist pack yet. I was hoping it would end up being optional. If we must, then I do have an old black fanny pack I could use. Thanks for posting about the books. I had tried to find out what was included in the bundle but didn't find out anything more than it wasn't going to include everything.

I sent an email a few weeks ago asking if there were any requirements for our stethoscopes (brand/model/color, etc.) and was told it's totally up to us. I'm almost done with my shopping...as long as the scrub pants and shoes I ordered from amazon fit, all I really have left on my list are textbooks and a laptop.

No, not yet. I checked the bookstore for the bundle in early July but they didn't have fall textbooks out yet. Maybe they do now...I haven't checked cause I don't live close. They said to check back in late July though.

Sure :) My name is Kylie. I have two little girls. They are 5 and 7. Nursing has been a lifelong dream for me, but my motivation kicked into overdrive when my youngest was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes when she was 3. In addition to working as a nurse, I'm hoping to become a Certified Diabetes Educator. As far as experience goes, I completed a CNA program last summer and got my license, but haven't worked as one yet. And of course, having a diabetic child has taught me a whole lot!

Yay! I'm glad to be meeting some people from our class. It's been a little lonely since I got my letter, haha. I grabbed my polos and scrub tops in mid May a few days after my meeting. They do sell the scrub pants at the bookstore. I actually bought 2 pairs but they were a little too long on me. I called the office and was told it was okay to get any brand as long as they were the right color, so I'm planning on ordering some with a shorter inseam from amazon soon here. I went back less than a week after I had bought everything to return the pants and they had completely revamped and organized the whole section where they keep the nursing uniforms. They seemed to have a decent amount of the white scrub tops but at that time they only had a few polos in each size. It did sound like the fundraiser might include some of the other supplies on our list. I haven't had a chance to check out the pricing on the textbook bundle to see which is the best way to go. I tried looking on the bookstore website but they are currently only selling for summer courses.

Hey guys! I will be starting in the fall as well. I chose the clinical section that included QMC. So far all I have purchased is 2 polos and 2 scrub tops. I'm slowly working on figuring out where I'm gonna buy everything else from. Do you guys know which stethoscope you plan on getting? I didn't see any specific models mentioned on the supply list. Have you heard anything about that? I have seen posts on here in the past mention that UHM required Littmann cardiology III's, but that was back in 2011 so I'm not sure if that's the case anymore. I'm torn between the new Littmann classic III and the cardiology III.
