  4. Athletes heart rate

    stronger heart translates to better circulation, better blood flow,etc. Muscles also have more mitochondria because training hard actually makes some muscles make more mitochondria (powerhouse of the cell). Muscles who are used to training don't ha...
  5. LPN to BSN @ Indiana State U...here is the info i got!!!

    i'm in the program now, anyone can PM me. I don't have all the answers, but I did not need to have anything to do w/ TCN. I wouldn't recommend it unless you have extra money to throw around.
  6. There are a number of nurses who make $40-$50/ hr. Maybe that's not everybody, but compared to minimum wage, that is a "ton" of money. Of course, an AP nurse could definitely make more than that. I'm sure the average person doesn't really know that...
  7. Hurting my chances of being hired? Help

    With $80K in student loans, I would seriously reconsider adding on any more, lest you find yourself paying student loans for the rest of your life. Unless you are really dying to be a nurse (and why didn't you go straight to nursing school first) an...
  8. Indiana State University Question

    You take the test online, but you have to be somewhere such that a proctor is available. In my case, I took it at a state university close to my house and paid a $40 fee for proctoring services. There is a form that they will send to you once you si...
  9. HIPAA Violation

    sad. On the other hand, I keep getting asthma brochures from my darn insurance company who thinks the kids have asthma because one of the ER people listed it... go figure. On the one hand, I understand HIPAA -- on the other hand, stories like this ...
  10. nursing in california/ advice

    you sound a bit like me -- long story. Anyway - that is the most frustrating part -- you would think that it would be easier to get into classes, but no...it's harder to get into nursing classes than it is to actually just pass the classes which real...
  11. "Why don't you just be a doctor?"

    The ones that really hate it get out as soon as their debts are paid. There are countless stories of doctors giving up medicine because it's not what they signed up for. A number of them go into office jobs in the pharmaceutical industry and they ar...
  12. Socialized Medicine the myths and the facts

    the old system is unsustainable, but the new one is also quite unsustainable. Of course, you can always sustain it with higher taxes, I suppose. The new bill doesn't address the reason for high costs. What you are doing is replacing a system w/ anot...
  13. Socialized Medicine the myths and the facts

    you hit the nail on the head. when you expect the govt to provide everything for you, then you also give up your ability to make a real choice. But I suppose that people haven't figured that out. all they want is that someone else pays. What they do...
  14. Socialized Medicine the myths and the facts

    A private company can always dictate their price. And that price will be HIGH because they can no longer deny anyone to keep their costs low. Of course, if there's no money to be made, why stay in that business? I think they will get out and offer a...
  15. Socialized Medicine the myths and the facts

    lamazeteacher, you got it wrong. The church doesn't TELL anyone to do anything. It's a choice you make and have to live with. I'm one who didn't have an amnio because the results would not have made any difference to me. The catholic church does no...
