Ok, so I was wandering through our lovely states forum, and I couldnt find an intro page.... So............... thought Id make one!

I have been a nurse for almost 12 yrs, currently work in CCU in a Birmingham hospital. I have 2 boys, 17 and 14 who are all boy...

I have worked in OR, Home Health and ICUs. Started out as an LPN, ADN, BSN. I completed my LPN and ADN at CACC in Childersburg, my BSN at JSU, and working on my MSN at UAB.

I am also you Moderator for the Alabama Forum, so if you have any questions that I can help you with feel free to PM me. I'd like to see this forum very active!!

So where are all the Bama folks at??????

Re: Introductions...........

I'm definitely a Bama person. I'm about to graduate (May) from UA's Capstone College of Nurisng with my BSN. I've interviewed on various units at a local Tuscaloosa hospital. Due to me already being employed as a student PCA/US at the hospital, I had an inside edge and will be able to obtain a day shift position. It's just a matter of choosing which unit is the best for me.

Besides finishing nursing school and getting a RN job, I am a single parent to a 3 yr old boy. He's a typical 3 yr old boy, always on the go, never tired, and growing up too fast.

Hmmm, whudda thunk a Bama Fan with your name..... Teasing.... oh WAR EAGLE!

Wait til your son is about to turn 17 in 2 wks. He walks by me and I can still see the little boy running through the house with nothing but a towel singing Ray Stevens song "They call me the streak" yelling "Are ya naked??"

Re: Introductions...........

HI there my fellow classmate!! Its going well, just surprised that this semester is almost over. It seems like yesterday that I started in the program and now Im 1 yr into it. Time flies. I too will grad May 2008. Its hard to work full time and read 13 chapters a wk, plus the videos in Pharm, but it will be worth it.
