1 Victor Valley College The Journal The Nursing School and Allied Health Newsletter Article By: Dawna Scott September 2014 Volume 5 No. 1 Welcome Back!! Fall 2014 Welcome Back! We are excited to begin this new semester!! We hope that everyone enjoyed their summer break and are ready to (as Lisa Crouch always says) embrace the academic burn! As we begin a new semester we also would like to look back at some of the wonderful things that happened last semester. We would like to congratulate the graduating class of RN s for Spring 2014!! There were thirty nine graduates last semester and the ceremony was beautiful! We know that this group of grads will also excel as they go on to take their NCLEX. There have already been reports of passing the NCLEX from a couple of these graduates!! VVC Top 5% Every nurse remembers the big day when the they took their board exam, or the NCLEX. Sometimes there was another question, such as How many questions?. Older nurses may have been asked what percent they earned in one of the six exams that everyone took. But for everyone there was only one question that mattered did you pass? From the point of view as a nursing program, the question is often what percentage of the people from your school who are taking the NCLEX for the first time passed. The VVC nursing program wants to stay above 85% at minimum, and preferably above 90%. That has been accomplished for the last several semesters. Lately there has been talk about the VVC nursing program being in the top 5% of all the nursing programs in the country. How is that calculated, since the schools receive only a list of the names of the students who passed, and those who don t? It is done statistically, and then published. The first part of the process is the most complex. It puts all the scores on a standard, so
2 The Journal Victor Valley College that they can be compared. A candidate can pass at 75 questions, or at 265 questions. The candidate who passes at 75 questions is probably better prepared than the candidate who needs 265 questions to pass. Next the statistical manipulations consider difficulty of individual questions taken by each candidate, and then reported as groups representing each school. Next the schools are ranked from highest to lowest. The final reports are published comparing groups of schools. One reports all the programs in our state. For the most recent report VVC ranked 15 out of 135 schools, or in the top 11%. The second report compares all associate degree programs in the country. VVC ranked 65 out of 1188 associate degree programs, which is in the top 5%. The last report includes all of the registered nursing programs in all the states. VVC ranked 105 out of 1985 schools. That is in the top 5% of all the registered nurs- out of 1985 schools. That is in the top 5% of all the registered nursing programs in the country! There are many people who contribute to this success. First are all the students. They are the ones who studied, passed nursing school and then passed the NCLEX. Right behind the students are the faculty and staff, who guide the educational progress and provide support. We should not forget the alumni and the nurses at our clinical facilities who provide hands on learning in the real world. We are an excellent program, and we plan to continue our record of excellence. Article By: Diane Cline Fall 2014 Page 2 Charity Challenge *Attention all 246 and process nursing students: We all have an opportunity this semester to give back to our community in an easy, but huge way. This Fall, CNSA challenges us all to bring one canned food every time we come on campus to be donated to our in-need community members. All contributions will be donated to the Victor Valley Rescue Mission. Cans will be collected in containers placed in each lecture room, including the lab. CNSA President Lori Sherrie Wells-Guttierrez welcomes students to accompany her on the day of deliverance of all our donations to see how much we have truly helped our community. In addition to our generous charity, Cardenas Market has made a kind donation to us This is a fantastic way to assist our struggling community members and make the public aware of what the Victor Valley College Nursing Program is all about! Please take part in this awesome charity every time you come to campus to help provide relief to our disadvantaged population of the High Desert. By: Alexa Libby Test Your Knowledge (Questions from KAPLAN Nursing QBank) The nurse reviews discharge instructions with the client recently diagnosed with a myocardial infarction due to coronary artery disease (CAD). Which statement BEST indicates to the nurse that the client understands the disease process? A) I ll probably have CAD because my father dies of a heart attack. B) My heart muscle did not get enough oxygen which resulted in the pain I experienced. C) I will have to be on medication for the rest of my life. D) Since my diet will have to change, I m glad I like salads with salad dressing.
3 The Journal Victor Valley College Article By: Dawna Scott FALL 2014 Page 3 RN Externs There are two hospitals that work with the Victor Valley College Nursing Program to provide an externship for current students involved in the Nursing Program. Desert Valley Hospital and the Barstow Community Hospital begin hiring RN externs after they complete nursing process two. I had an opportunity to talk to one of the RN externs currently working at Desert Valley Hospital, Monica Vasquez. Here is a short Q&A How many VVC RN Externs are there currently at Desert Valley Hospital? There s around 12 working in different areas of the hospital: ICU, L&D, ER, Med/Surg and surgery. Monica Vasquez NP 4 What was the process to become an Extern? I filled out an application and resume, applying online. I was called in for a panel interview. At the interview, punctuation and appearance are very important. After hired there is a drug screening and extensive physical. The position of an RN externs have recently become highly competitive, there were 46 applicants, 20 interviewed and only 8 hired for the summer. VVC does require you to be enrolled in a CO-OP Ed class, where you need to turn in your time card and do some extra work such as a portfolio and research paper. How was your first day? I work in surgery and I m the first RN extern to work in the surgery department. It was kind of challenging because I didn t know what to expect. I was very nervous but I just worked hard as I could and tried to catch on as fast as possible. The start were really good about telling me what needed to be done to prep each patient for surgery. I ve heard that a day as an RN Extern is like a regular clinical day, do you agree? No you get more out of an extern day than in clinical. I work hard doing all the Pre-Op Where are they now? Jennifer Vitha VVC School of Nursing Class of 2011 checklist before the pt goes into surgery. Would you recommend other student nurses take advantage of this opportunity to work as an RN Extern? Absolutely! It will benefit you and give you confidence. I feel that I ve been able to keep up my nursing skills while learning even more than in clinical alone. Things that are more specific to the hospital that I m working at. I feel that those of us who are externs won t feel as nervous about working as a nurse after we graduate. It s only a benefit to you as you are in nursing school. Jennifer got her first nursing job at Barstow Community Hospital working the night shift on the medicalsurgical/telemetry floor. She worked at Barstow for almost two years, before transferring to the telemetry floor at St. Mary's. Jennifer says that, "the college has a good program that prepared me well for nursing practice. We have great instructors like Sally and Renate who were always very patient, encouraging, and knowledgeable." Jennifer received the obstetrics clinical award at graduation and would like to work in labor and delivery someday. Article By Shawna Simpson

5 The Journal Victor Valley College FALL 2014 Page 5 Article By: Lori Sherrie Gutierrez Injuries sustained during violent crimes and accidents happen frequently. When they do happen, most patients will be transported to their local emergency room to be cared for. Patients may be transported via ambulance and others may require transportation via helicopter to a trauma center. These patients need emergent specialized care or they will succumb to their injuries. Waiting and ready at the trauma center will be a team of elite, specialty trained nurses; trauma nurses. Arrowhead Regional Medical Center in Colton, California is the closest trauma center to our high desert region. This facility receives a vast array of trauma cases that range from motor vehicle accidents, stabbings and gun shot victims, and motorcycle accidents. Trauma nurses normally receive a patient who is unconscious, unable to provide important information pertinent to their care. The team performs their roles as rehearsed. Maintain a patent airway; Insertion of Multiple IV s; Administration of blood; Searching a person s wallet and Trauma Nursing finding clues about who they are important to finding clues, contacting next of kin and possible medications; and documenting the overall process. Close assessment is needed to decipher the needs of the patient and if the interventions performed are essential. Trauma Nurses need to possess certain attributes. One of the most important skills is the ability to work long hours in a physically and mentally demanding atmosphere. Dan Alexander, a trauma nurse at Arrowhead Regional Medical Center and VVC alumni states A trauma nurse should demonstrate; the ability to be assertive while still working as a team; the ability to rapidly assess a situation while implementing interventions and anticipating your next intervention if the current one does not work. Dan Alexander also states, As a trauma nurse you will need to be accustomed to seeing horrific injuries and not be deterred by them, and be able to work in a systematic manner Johnson & Johnson s discover nursing website outlines the educational path as follows. In order to become a trauma nurse you will need to earn your ASN or BSN and earn your licensure. You will need to work within an emergency room for a minimum of two years. You can then obtain your Emergency Nursing Certification then take your Trauma Nursing Core Course (TNCC) from the Emergency Nurses Association (ENA). After you are certified, recertification and continuing education credits will need to be obtained every few years.
