Yup, thought we had to.

I did

Is there anyone who is not buying the supply bag?

Also, how long did it take to ship to you?

I don’t think it’s optional to get the bag or not... It took a lil over 2 weeks to receive it

I agree with it not being optional. I looked inside and it seems to have the supplies we will need for lab... vials of saline that seem to be ‘pretend’ drugs along with stethoscope, etc

It's definitely not optional, you'll need to bring it a lot in N11 for CNSL (Clinical Nursing Skills Lab). You don't even really use all of the items in it, and sometimes the things you do need to practice with aren't even in the bag, but are available (in limited quantities sometimes) in the lab. I bought a different stethoscope after the first CNSL day because I couldn't hear well with it, but many students do just fine with the one in our bag. If anyone has received their uniform already and have a problem with the fit and need a different size (they are kind of awful) PM me, I may have one for you!

I Abe not received my uniform yet. I am worried they won’t fit right. I ordered them a month ago. I wish they would come in already

On the CEP itinerary it said Dove Uniform distribution?? Do you think that will be our RCC uniform? Or the one from CSUSB?

NikeRN · Jan 28, 2020

CEP PEOPLE:

Can someone please breakdown the schedule for NRN11 and NRN11A? I'm getting dyslexia reading my notes cause I'm hearing two different things. Which days do we wear our uniforms? I haven't gotten mine at all...

For HA at CSUSB are we only meeting Fridays? virtually and in person for the entire semester?

Congratulations to all of those who've received their acceptances! I'm finishing up my second semester. If I can be of any help, please let me know! This is the beginning of the roller coaster that is nursing school!
A few words of advice:
Definitely go get started on your titers and immunizations ASAP.
If you need MMR or Varicella, do not get it between getting your 2-step TB tests done. Get the TB done completely, then do your MMR and/or Varicella. It will be rejected from Complio if you don't, and you'll then need the Quantiferon Gold blood test (can be $$ and a speed bump when you are eager to register).
Buy your books from the Lippincott rep that visits during bootcamp (if he still attends!) You will get your discount right away rather than waiting for the mail-in rebate from the bookstore.
Again, congratulations, and let me know if you have any questions. I'd be happy to help. ?

Hi,

which bundle would you recommend for lippincott, The ebooks or the actual books. Which one do you think is better to use?
