1. What field would this be considered?

   kcoa11 replied to caffeineRx's topic in General Nursing

   It sounds like a great idea to start up a small clinic offering those services some day. There is a great need for this type of service, and you'll surely never get bored. From my experience, if you become a Nurse Practitioner with a specialty in Wom...

3. Anyone apply to TVCC ADN program?

   kcoa11 replied to kcoa11's topic in Texas

   LG - I'll be at the Kaufman location. I believe Palestine is where they have the LVN program. El Centro's nursing department staff are not the friendliest people at all. I've had numerous interactions with them that pulled me away from considering go...

   Just curious to know if anyone on allnurses.com has applied to TVCC in Kaufman? I'm guessing theres a long wait until the letters go out and thought we could form a mini support group! lol. Also, if there is anyone on here that has gone through the p...

6. How do you stay awake during the night shift?

   kcoa11 replied to Foxfour's topic in General Nursing

   It's hard to change your biological clock from what it is used to. You may just need to invest in some really dark curtains to keep the sun out in your bedroom and make yourself sleep at a certain time everyday. Eventually, you being tired from work...

   kcoa11 replied to mom35's topic in Texas

   I think you said it just right - keep your mind, and especially your HEART on your ultimate goal, and you will be just fine! Many people have done it already and just know that you can too. I think the main thing to is believe in yourself and know th...

   kcoa11 replied to kcoa11's topic in Texas

   Congrats mom35! I knew you would get in! Worrying is such a waste of time, glad you can relax a little and prepare for your future ahead. As for me, I'm currently taking classes at El Centro, but will not be applying to their program. I'm applying to...

    Trek, congrats on your acceptance to Brookhaven's program! You'll probably be much happier~ I've heard so many good things about the porgram and the support of their instructors. Also...100% pass rate on NCLEX...you can't beat that! mom35...I'm sure...

    kcoa11 replied to kcoa11's topic in Texas

    I applied to El Centro/Northlake as well. I really don't have any preferences on whether or not it is El Centro or Northlake...but it would be nice to be at El Centro to just ride the train there instead of driving in crazy traffic all the time!! Eit...

14. Pre-Nursing for BSN....skating into LPN?

    kcoa11 replied to nurse_wannabee's topic in LPN/LVN

    I think that you are making a wise decision by considering the LVN to sustain your family. Once you are a "nurse" the door is always open to easily further your education online, through work (which will pay for you) and through universities/communit...
