They don't have an accelerated program by any means, but I've got all of their prereqs and I could fall in with a regular class. It's also fairly close to where I'm at although I'd still have to quit my job to go. Arkadelphia seems ok. All in all, I think I'd rather go to ASU since it's only a year, but if not there and forced to go to a regular program then why not there albeit I'm still not 100% on board with being an RN. ]]> Arkansas Nurses ArkansasFan http://allnurses.com/arkansas-nurses/thoughts-on-henderson-439265.html http://allnurses.com/arkansas-nurses/cna-programs-central-437816-new.html Mon, 09 Nov 2009 04:35:45 GMT Hi everyone!

I know there are a couple of topics on this, but I could not find any that were fairly current. I am looking for CNA programs in the Central Arkansas area. I live in Cabot. Also, any experience with them would be awesome! Was it quality education? And very importantly...how long was it? I am serving in the US Air Force and and looking to get into nursing gradually. Starting with CNA and working my way up the eduation ladder as time allows. The length of the course will be important as I will probably have to take leave to take the course unless they offer evening classes. I am excited to get going!!! ]]> Arkansas Nurses USAFLoadmaster http://allnurses.com/arkansas-nurses/cna-programs-central-437816.html http://allnurses.com/arkansas-nurses/arkansas-state-uiversity-437598-new.html Sun, 08 Nov 2009 01:08:07 GMT Has any be through the traditional nursing program at ASU and if so how is it?

Do it take the full three years to complete once accepted to the program? ]]> Arkansas Nurses mrstcj7 http://allnurses.com/arkansas-nurses/arkansas-state-uiversity-437598.html http://allnurses.com/arkansas-nurses/where-can-i-437038-new.html Thu, 05 Nov 2009 19:10:55 GMT Ok so I am new to this blogging stuff but it seems to work for alot of people i know so here it... Ok so I am new to this blogging stuff but it seems to work for alot of people i know so here it goes.

I am a mother to an eight month old boy. He is my life and the reason why i am trying to better myself. I have applied to Baptist Health Schools in Little Rock, AR. I plan to start January or July of 2010. But i can not afford not to have a job while in school. I have tried to apply at Baptist in Little Rock but it seems every position that i am qualified for is an 8-5 job. I'll be in school during that time so obviously i can'y do that. I have been in banking for 2 years now and i have never worked in the healthcare industry. My mom and sister are both nurses and my brother was on a medivac unit. So i am pretty familiar with medical terminology. So does anyone have any suggestions on what i can do? I would like to keep my Sundays as they are now which is family time. Its the only day all three of us can be together. Please Help me! ]]> Arkansas Nurses http://allnurses.com/arkansas-nurses/where-can-i-437038.html http://allnurses.com/arkansas-nurses/university-arkansas-little-437025-new.html Thu, 05 Nov 2009 18:24:19 GMT To all: I plan on applying for the ASN program at the University of Arkansas Little Rock in... To all:

I plan on applying for the ASN program at the University of Arkansas Little Rock in fall 2010. I'm currently completing Anatomy & Physiology I (the only prereq. required to be complete to apply to the program). I should finish A&P I with an A (very easy class). I do have other support courses complete, because I hold a BA from the University of North Texas. I plan on taking A&P II in fall 2010, since the ASN program doesn't officially start until the summer (assuming I get accepted).

My questions:

1. Are there any others applying for the same program?
2. Do you think I will be accepted with two A's in both A&P I and II, given I have a lot of support courses complete?

Any other advice will be greatly appreciated.

Healthy regards,

Aaron Wade

I'm interested in trying to get in to the program in fall 2010 and am trying to get a handle on whether I can work full-time while taking that class.
