  1. Hospital based nursing programs

    Those aren't hospital based nursing programs. The coursework happens at PVCC and the clinicals happen at John C. Lincoln hospital. Scottsdale CC has a similar partnership with Scottsdale Healthcare. Riverside School of Health Careers in Newport News ...
  2. Any word-- Hampton University??

    Just make a quick 15 posts and then you will have access to private messages. :)
  3. Oh I appreciate all that CNA's do. I am not bagging on the people who choose to do it, I just don't see HOW they can do it as a career. I loved all of the patients who I met while I did clinicals to be a CNA but I couldn't do that job for long. It ac...
  4. Are there any online LPN programs ?

    RSAA offers CNA courses as well. They are located in Mesa and offer a great program. I did the 3 week day program. I would recommend that over taking half or an entire semester. They also offer evening/weekend courses as well. Good luck on your journ...
  5. Supplies for Nursing School

    Honeylips!! That is fantastic :))
  6. Scottsdale Healthcare Interview!

    Good luck! I used to work at SHC and I LOVED it. I would go back and work there if/when I ever move back to AZ. It is an awesome atmosphere to work in and I haven't found a hospital even close to as good as SHC here in VA.
  7. Why does Sonography pay more than nursing?

    Thank you tittytatRN, that was exactly my point :)
  8. LPN pay rate in Newport News

    I agree with the 1st post, the pay in VA stinks! I thought AZ was bad but AZ actually pays RN's, LPN's great compared to VA. I have a friend here who is a CNA at a hospital and her pay is $8.35/hr. That is just ridiculous. In AZ, I worked at a hospit...
  9. Being a CNA is a very dirty job. The clinicals are done at a LTC facility which I have no desire working at so it really turned me off from nursing. I am coming back around to the idea but the atmosphere was AWFUL. Plus it is really hard work with cr...
  10. Salem State Direct Entry Taking Vacation

    I have heard that most nursing programs are very strict about absences. I mean most schools have a waiting list or many people that were turned down in your favor. I agree that you and your husband should be able to take a vacation but I wouldn't exp...
  11. I graduated from my CNA class!

    Congrats and good luck! I would pick being a CNA at a children's hospital over adult care any day. Just apply and see what happens. My CNA program kept telling people that they probably wouldn't get hired at a hospital right out after passing the sta...
  12. Why does Sonography pay more than nursing?

    Why do many professions pay more than a teacher's salary and we are relying on teachers to educate our children? Why do movie stars make millions and still get free stuff galore while most other people bust their ass everyday to make a living? There ...
  13. Should I not include this in a resume?

    I agree with the above posters that you should leave it out. I never wear my wedding ring or mention my children because although employers can't not hire you because of your marital status or whether or not you have 1 or 10 children, it could still ...
  14. Wow, this is a great thread. I have often thought about what else I could possibly do in healthcare that isn't nursing :)
  15. BIO 201 at Rio Salado

    Hello! I am so glad that I have found these threads as well! I have taken many, many classes at RIO and have never had any issues. However, I did take BIO156, 8 week acc. version and barely scraped by with a C. And then last summer I took BIO201 and ...
