1. northwestern institute of health

   HellooooNurse replied to rma2lpn's topic in Illinois

   This is helpful!! I had to take time out of school bc of family financial issues (hooray for the economy!) so I'm looking into FAFSA and WIA and all that other stuff now. I don't want to switch schools, but I have to keep my options open and see what...

2. LPN evening programs in Chicago IL??

   HellooooNurse replied to latinadream's topic in LPN/LVN Students

   Are community colleges not an option? They have lots of options time-wise, but not a lot of room in the program. That's the only bad thing. The private places usually have lots of options, but you have to weed out the crappy ones. I looked at these ...

   Cool!! I didn't know that existed. Thanks!!

4. Northwestern Institute of Health and Technology Tansfer Credits? (NWIHT)

   HellooooNurse replied to RaeMae's topic in Illinois

   Hmm. That doesn't sound too great. Before I chose the school I go to now (sort of - I had to take some semesters off bc of family stuff but I plan to start again in the fall), I looked into NWIHT. It seems as though a couple of the private LPN progra...

5. Americare Institute good LPN school?

   HellooooNurse replied to RescueNinja2013's topic in Pre-Nursing

   OMG that's great that they have financial aid. They also have a new website. I guess I could have looked there first. There's a ton of info there. I'm gonna call and make an appointment with the FAFSA lady if I can. It will be such a blessing to have...

7. Americare Institute good LPN school?

   HellooooNurse replied to RescueNinja2013's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Wow, it's been a while since I've been here. This thread has grown!! I'm sorry to hear the Americare has been disorganized. I had to take some time out of school because of family issues, and I'm itching to go back to school but I don't know if it's ...

8. Are Hospitals Checking Credit Reports For new Hires?

   HellooooNurse replied to HappyMeNow's topic in General Nursing

   They have to do background checks at the school I go to, and one of them is through TransUnion to make sure that we're giving them correct SSN and address info. Makes sense because what's the point of going to nursing school in I'm not legal to work ...

9. Supportive Significant Other!!

   HellooooNurse replied to lina.561's topic in General Nursing

   The fact that you want to continue your education is a step in the right direction. It sounds like you've been pretty dependent on this guy, and he knows it. It's pretty clear that he's holding you back. I think that moving yourself and your sister i...

10. Thank-you Son

    This is beautiful. I hope he knows how you feel.

11. Would you encourage someone who was considering nursing school?

    HellooooNurse replied to Joe V's topic in General Nursing

    It takes a caring, competent individual to be a nurse. If someone considered going to nursing school, I would only encourage them wholeheartedly if they felt that was their calling. I have no patience for people who are in it "for the money." Nursin...

12. Americare Institute

    HellooooNurse replied to playas09's topic in Illinois

    Based on the experience that I've had so fair, again, it's the failing students who complain, and by the look of those horrendous writing skills... well... Theres always some excuse as to why they're the victim. I'm glad some students get weeded out...

13. Americare Institute

    HellooooNurse replied to playas09's topic in Illinois

    If you want a charismatic teacher who will push you to do your best, pick Professor X. I know a lot of my classmates hated him because he takes no excuses, but they were the lazy teenagers who were too busy playing on their iPhones to pay attention t...

    HellooooNurse replied to RescueNinja2013's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. So Keeplookingup7, what did they do to you that has made you so upset? I'm having a hard time with your post because I've never experienced anything like what you're describing. Also, I think you're being rathe...

15. Should I become a CNA before becoming an RN

    HellooooNurse replied to Lola89's topic in General Nursing

    You should consider it. Some of my classmates are working as CNAs and are getting tuition reimbursement because they're in school for healthcare.
