1. Navy Nurse Candidate Program

   rockytopRN2b replied to rockytopRN2b's topic in Government

   They also told me that they won't accept any BSN that has been done on line, it has to be done in person. In case anyone was wondering. I'm curious about that. I've heard both yes and no on the online programs. Personally, the nurse recruiter I spoke...

   Slowrunner...if your BF is still interested, tell him to check back in the fall. There are a limited number of slots available in the program, but new slots are available at the beginning of each fiscal year (October).

   It has to be a BSN...but if you go back to school, you would most likely be eligible for the NCP. Good luck to you! My hubby is an AD Marine also. :)

   rockytopRN2b replied to metal_m0nk's topic in General Nursing

   I am completely envious of all of you. I am sick constantly, courtesy of my kids. I can't tell you the last time I was actually the one to catch something and bring it home to the family...but the kids bring home germs from school and I catch everyt...

10. Navy NCP and Online Degrees

    rockytopRN2b replied to rockytopRN2b's topic in Government

    Congrats on passing!! That's my plan, although I won't be ready to start my package until next summer. I have been trying forever to get a spot for the RN program, but our school only admits 12 students per YEAR, and they're selected by lottery out o...

15. Pain in childbirth 'a good thing'

    rockytopRN2b replied to Anxious Patient's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I did not read the article, but from my birthing experiences, I would say labor pain was beneficial. With my first, I was younger, scared to death, and begged for an epidural the moment they would give me one because I was terrified of feeling any pa...
