3. Hospital rehab/subacute nurses: What are your ratios?

   ChynaGrove replied to PAERRN20's topic in General Nursing

   I work on a sub-acute care unit as a CNA. It's a 30 bed unit with a nurse to pt ratio of 3:1 to 5:1. We have one charge nurse for all 30 beds. It's a cardiac unit as well so we have a large number of open heart recovery pts with all sorts of drains a...

   I thought this was going to be a sad post by the title, but congratulations! I don't know you from Adam but I'm glad everything is going so well for you. And double congratulations to your bride-to-be who, I'm sure, feels like a very lucky woman.

   ChynaGrove replied to sunkissed75's topic in General Nursing

   Oooooh! My favorite! I own every season and I've seen every episode about a million times. A few that I can think of are "TOW the Stain" "The One Where Everyone Finds Out" and I can't remember what this one is called but it's the one where everyone i...

8. How far from your current home would you be willing to drive (one way) to work?

   ChynaGrove replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

   I live about two blocks away from work. I can get from my house not only to the hospital but clocked in on my unit in less than fifteen minutes.

9. Where can I go for CNA classes in NNJ

   ChynaGrove replied to lisa_1031's topic in General Nursing

   I don't know about anything specific to your state and/or region but if there is a community college near you I would make that your first call. If not then get online and find numbers for anyone/anyplace/anything that may be able to help you find a ...

11. For anyone considering/beginning nursing school, let's help each other!!!

    ChynaGrove replied to Infinisynth's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Oh, I'm for sure going to be super careful. I may discuss vague aspects of my job not directly related to my patients at times but that's as far as it will go. I'm also not going to bad mouth any of my classmates or my instructors (though I have no r...

    Not from the same community college as you but I had A's in all of my prereqs except one C in Eng 101 (lack of giving a crap at the time, as I like to say) a B in my humanities (a music class) and maybe one other B in a computer class or something. M...

13. Does anyone know of LPN to RN program where pre-reqs are included in program?

    ChynaGrove replied to sorry's topic in LPN-RN

    You've absolutely got to have SOME prereqs for any program I've ever heard of. The majority of them are worked in with your nursing classes (but I would not recommend going this route) but I've never heard of a program that would accept you without y...
