   theFretfulStudent posted a topic in Colorado

   I am looking to work in home health care and I was wondering about the agencies in Denver. Which, in your opinion, are the best? I am looking at Pro Case Management right now as I have a connection through a friend. Any advice? Pay is not my only...

2. Concorde Aurora LPN training

   theFretfulStudent replied to pearl77's topic in Colorado

   The training itself is good, and I feel that we have very competitive clinical training. I even had small rotations in an ICU and an ER (very uncommon for ADN students.) If you are willing to never know where you are going to be the next day or if ...

   theFretfulStudent replied to pearl77's topic in Colorado

   I think my training was actually pretty adequate but I cant find a job.....so who knows. I would recommend it if you are willing to deal with some drama, and we took the NET. I cant remember what the minimum score was.

5. Concorde Aurora LPN training

   theFretfulStudent replied to pearl77's topic in Colorado

   Huge organizational problems as well as high instructor turn over. We had instructors even leave us mid-session. All of this is understandable but the administration was down right rude about our concerns and often left us to deal with their messes...

   theFretfulStudent replied to pearl77's topic in Colorado

   I was in the LPN program at Concorde for 3 sessions before I switched to the RN program. The LPN program was GREAT and I learned a lot. The RN program was kind of a nightmare but still worth it. I really recommend the LPN program.

   What did you get on the test? If you get a no for May I would enroll back where ever you are going now. Last time I checked the highest scores on the Net test are the ones in the program.

   I know you posted this weeks ago but I thought I would still answer. I just graduated from Concorde on Dec. 2. The program had ALOT of rough patches but I walked in with no pre reqs 16 months ago and now I am done, so for me it was worth it. I thi...

9. Concorde Career Institute (Colorado)

   theFretfulStudent replied to blueyes27's topic in Colorado

   There are no pre req's for the RN program but you have to get a competitive score on the NET test, the highest scores are placed in the program. Again, I would NOT recommend the RN program. It's currently a nightmare.

10. has anyone done Dream Dinners, Dinner N Dash, etc?

    theFretfulStudent replied to micco's topic in Colorado

    I did dream dinners and the food was ok, not great but much better than fast food. I didn't really like the sweet or asian things but some of them were very tasty. The best part is they use very good quality meat and you can really pick and choose...

    theFretfulStudent replied to blueyes27's topic in Colorado

    I would never recommend the RN program. It is a joke and we are all extremely frustrated. I would quit if I had not already spent so much money. It is terrible. I am currently in the Med Surg class and nearly all of us are failing and there are n...

    theFretfulStudent replied to nursingwannabe's topic in Colorado

    I am terrible but I am sort of giggling because you have the same fears we all had, the only repeaters I know of is J and Devon...and they are both smart girls who will make it the second time around. Dont let anything intimidate you, the reality is...
