Just want to get an idea of where everyone is located,
and where they went for their nursing education!
I'll start:
1. Vancouver, BC
2. BCIT (starting soon ... jan06)
Originally from Barrie, Ontario. Completed the 4 year BScN bridge from Georgian College and York University in 2004. Moved to North Carolina about 6 months later and have been here ever since. What a culture shock it was when I got to the states (believe it or not)! I have always traveled through the US when I was a child, and have many friends from my childhood in the states. Never thought it would be completely different living here in comparison to Canada. I miss the 4 seasons for sure. But I do not miss the fact that I have obtained the greatest nursing experinces here in the past 5 years..something I don't think I could have accomplished in Canada. Up next...to the west coast (well almost...) in Reno, Nevada, then CRNA school in Panama City, FL. If the timing is right, I may think about returning to Canada. Who knows? I have another 40 years of nursing ahead of me!!
I'm a B.C. girl, soon to graduate high school and hoping to be placed on the wait-list for Langara's RN Program. I will be attending VCC for some extra programs to pad my resume in the meantime, and might attend BCIT after to specialize :)
My original plan was to go to UBC, but they made some changes to their nursing program that is too accelerated for my liking.
Hoping to spend my career in Vancouver ^_^
