1. Criminal Background Check

   SDChargersGirl#31 posted a topic in CNA/MA

   I know that the BON for each state are the only ones who can give difinitive answers on questions regarding criminal background checks and licensure. I'm not sure if my question falls into that category though. I'm fairly confident that I would come...

2. Does "your" instead of "you're" drive anyone else nuts?

   SDChargersGirl#31 replied to *ac*'s topic in General Nursing

   I do that too! :chuckle I just can't help myself. When texting, I can't bring myself to use "ur". I won't even go without using proper punctuation in contractions. For me, the reason I abhor the misused/misspelled word is because it leads me to beli...

3. Concerned Dad !!!!

   SDChargersGirl#31 replied to chascal's topic in General Nursing

   while your program may have had a high gpa requirement, there are many adn programs where the gpa cutoff is around 2.5. he said her gpa was a 3.0, so she might even still have an eligable gpa for other universities. i live in california, so perhaps i...

   SDChargersGirl#31 replied to IHeartPeds87's topic in General Nursing

   My initial thought was, perhaps they were donated. I think the other posters idea of putting out an ad for donations would be a good idea. I totally feel you on the laundromat pain!!!!! I always considered personal W/D a necessity. Hauling all the la...

   SDChargersGirl#31 posted a topic in New Nurse

   I was recently invited to join Phi Theta Kappa (PTK) and was wondering if anyone who has experience with this honor society has found it beneficial other than it looking nice on resumes. My thinking is that most nursing students qualify for this hono...

7. looking for advice on anatomy/physiology class

   SDChargersGirl#31 replied to norcalsurfer1977's topic in General Nursing

   I took them together, and I'll tell you why I prefer it this way. The anatomy was easier for me, so that gave me more time to focus on the physiology, which is more conceptual. Can you imagine having a semester cramming all the anatomy in a short amo...

9. I need Tax advice to file my own taxes

   SDChargersGirl#31 replied to cameroondiva's topic in General Nursing

   I think BabyLady had some good points. I have never done my taxes. It can get so complicated and it's not something I want to risk messing up on. My dad is an accountant and he uses TurboTax. I have my dad do my taxes, and he always asks me questions...

    SDChargersGirl#31 replied to Holly5477's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I found the online access helpful, but the CD-ROMs that came with the book were the most helpful to me BY FAR!!!!!!!!!!!! It consisted of animations of the complex concepts that made it all very clear to me. As for online access, the case studies an...

    SDChargersGirl#31 replied to JadenRN TO BE's topic in Pre-Nursing

    For the first blank, yes.. it is the right ventricle. Upon the second blank, you will notice that the next word after the blank is "valve" so you need to find out which valve it is. You are looking for one word. Try page 446-447 for the answer. Good ...

    SDChargersGirl#31 replied to k-love's topic in General Nursing

    I could be wrong, but do you mean Suzanne's plan? I'm not a Nursing student yet, but perhaps that is what you ment? I have never heard of Sandra's plan. Good luck.
