  1. ADN to MSW

    hey there, I started my MSW program this fall. The school I'm going to has a part time program, which is nice because I also work full time. I'm sure you can manage school since you are a nurse. I think that if you are interested in it, go for it. If...
  2. Psycho-social needs being met by nurses?

    thanks for the info. This is good to know;)
  3. Hello, I wanted to ask the nurses in psych if your job as a nurse allows you to meet some of the psycho-social needs of your patients. I know some psych nurses participate in therapeutic groups. I have been looking at becoming a social worker or a nu...
  4. ADN to MSW

    Just wondering, what makes you want to be a social worker instead of a nurse? I have considered one or the other for some time as well. From what I can see, many registered nurses have and use many of the same skill sets as social workers. Such as in...
  5. Do nurses get unemployment benefits?

    Nurses will get unemployment if they are terminated for performance reasons. In most situations, employers won't contest unemployment, but they will if you are terminated for willful violation of their company policies.
  6. Question for those career changers

    Thank you guys, for telling me your stories. I hope everything works out great for both of you. It is nice to know that other people are in the same boat. It is tough right now, with the economy, to consider changing careers and quitting jobs. But, h...
  7. I am looking at starting my prerequisites for nursing and wanted a little advice. I have 4 science courses to take for the schools (both accelerated programs) I'm looking at applying to, and I am currently employed full time. The application date for...
  8. Please help me with my career choice!

    Hey Sonicnurse, this thread is a bit old, but I wanted to see how it's going for you in the nursing world now that you have graduated (I assume). I also have a BA in graphic design and am seriously considering going into nursing, so it's nice to see ...
  9. OCCC BADNAP (financial aid question)

    Hey Angie, If you got your previous loans in Oklahoma, I would go to http://www.ogslp.org/ that's the Oklahoma guaranteed student loan program. I went to that website and I called the number they gave and they were helpful and able to pull up specifi...
  10. Are You A Type "a" Nurse Or Type "b"

    I realize this is an old thread, but it really interested me. I definitely think the Type A and Type B is an easier way of summarizing one's personality than, say the Myers-Briggs personality types, which have so much spill-over into other types that...
  11. Any MSW/RN's out there? Want to pick your brain

    Well, I'm not a nurse, but I do have a question or two for you. I have applied to an MSW program for the upcoming fall. I haven't heard if I got accepted yet, but I have read and heard a lot of bad things about going down this path. It takes at least...
  12. OCCC nursing school

    Thanks Angie, I appreciate your help and answers. I'm not sure if I'm taking Chemistry this summer, but I'll let you know if I do.
  13. OCCC nursing school

    Hey OliveMay, I know you have nothing better to do than answer my questions while you are waiting to start nursing school:) so I'll ask another. Is it not possible to take Hum. Anatomy in the summer? I was thinking three science courses in the fall ...
  14. OCCC nursing school

    When you are referring to the 2,000 in gov. subsidies, does that change once you get into the nursing program? I was planning on paying for the prereqs out of pocket but the actual nursing courses I will have to borrow money. Thanks again
  15. OCCC nursing school

    OliveMay, You are a wealth of knowledge. I do have a couple more questions for you. You said Chemistry is a prereq for physio and micro. You took anatomy and physiology separately, right? Also, do you know if there are problems getting financial aid...
