   No, they have a separate RN - BSN program that begins in January only and it is a 1 year program. I have just a few classes left to complete my BSN as I attended BCHS for 2 semsters. Hope to knock it out in 2 terms. And that's why I transferred; I wa...

   Your clinical date will probably be 1.5 to 2 years from the time you start. This is why I transferred to Northwest in Senatobia MS but I am transferring back to Baptist to finish my BSN. Hope this helps and good luck!

   Life Uniforms in Southaven has some good prices. It's located on off Airways Blvd down the little street between Car Audio and Outback Storage on the East side of the road (closer to Goodman). Hope this helps.

   Probably if you have begun the series, you just can't start clinicals or must sign a waiver if you're not finished or proved immunity prior to clinicals.

   I went to BCHS for two semesters and wanted to get into clinical much earlier than the far away scheduled time so I transferred to a MS school. I plan to transfer back after I finish the ADN program. However, the only 'talk' I've heard about BCHS gra...

7. considering nursing school at 45 yo

   Student Nurse 38671 replied to turtlesrus's topic in General Students

   LOL.. now I wouldn't go THAT far as to say my younger counterparts have had 'positive feelings' about me. Being older is an advantage in the 'critical thinking' areas and one of the things that has saved me for testing. Because I do not get to study ...

8. considering nursing school at 45 yo

   Student Nurse 38671 replied to turtlesrus's topic in General Students

   I'm 45 and in will finish my 3rd semester next week and hope to graduate in May. There is SUCH a difference going back to school at 45 compared to 25 or 35, however, you can do it. I decided before I set foot on campus that failure was not an option ...

    Student Nurse 38671 replied to sukihb21's topic in Tennessee

    You are the only one that can make the decision of what to do. However, I don't think there's alot of pressure to get a BSN. I know a few that are not interested in a BSN because you get no additional money for the BSN, it just gives you more oppty t...

    I am in the Memphis area and am unable to find the payscale for the VA Memphis. Anyone know what a new RN just out of school would make? Thanks so much!

12. How long for NCLEX results?

    Student Nurse 38671 replied to BeachyRNn08's topic in Mississippi

    So sorry. I just finished my 1st year. Did you take any type of prep class for the exam? I've also heard that some of the NCLEX exams are specifics (e.g., test mostly covers meds, test mostly covers burns, etc.). Did you think that the test was a bro...

    Student Nurse 38671 replied to sukihb21's topic in Tennessee

    Yes, there is a wait. I'm not sure why they accept students without having a clinical spot for them. I was accepted to begin 01/07 and my clinical spot was 05/08. I only had a few classes left to take before clinicals and had i wanted to go full-time...

    Student Nurse 38671 replied to sukihb21's topic in Tennessee

    Well, baptist does offer the health insurance that you purchase thru the school for $250 per semester, which is not bad at all. However, there is about a 2 yr waiting list to begin clinicals at Baptist. I went 2 semesters and then transferred to Nort...
