  1. Bah. Was gung ho, now just don't know

    Yes, that was the same as how these facilities were. I believe the one had 37 clients and the load was split between 2 CNA's and then there was an LPN for meds and such. Course on one of those occasions, we were both temps and had not been to that pa...
  2. Bah. Was gung ho, now just don't know

    Interesting - I've wondered a bit about that. It always *feels* like a ridiculous patient load but on the other hand, it seems normal and just what places do. That particular day (of the diaper case) there were myself, another temp CNA and one LPN fo...
  3. Bah. Was gung ho, now just don't know

    actually..... this *is* a community college. course it probably doesn't help that i don't qualify for such things as the pell grants and all that so all the expenses are out of pocket expenses. its not even just the tuition thats the main issue, its ...
  4. Bah. Was gung ho, now just don't know

    Wow, thanks for this. That was a lot of how I used to feel when I felt a bit more confidence in the combination of myself + nursing. That was good to hear. As to the 2 years - this is just over one year that I am looking at - it grants LPN ability t...
  5. Bah. Was gung ho, now just don't know

    Thanks. It kind of makes no sense to me either but I guess I went for ones that are pretty worthless around here. (social work, psychology, sociology). The best I've ever been offered around here based on my degrees, other than private duty case mana...
  6. I have been in "pre-nursing" all this past year. Scheduled to begin the actual nursing classes in January. The closer I get to it the more I see how the school I am signed up with, (the ONLY school within 100 miles), does nothing but try to discourag...
  7. Microbiology concerns!

    I can definitely see your points there *if* I had any plans of doing hospital setting - which I don't.
  8. Microbiology concerns!

    Thanks for your reply! That doesn't sound like fun at all! I'm still torn as to whether to stay in this class or not. I have talked with folks at the school I am wanting to attend next year and they did tell me that if I can find a 4 credit online ve...
  9. Microbiology concerns!

    My area is psychiatrics and plan to do clinical portions in long term care facility. And its generally a different type of "bug" altogether that I would run into in that type of person to person care.
  10. Microbiology concerns!

    I am currently enrolled in microbiology. I had my first class last night. There is a LOT I didn't know about this course before I got into it. I was of the impression that we'd be doing a lot of hard work with knowledge, etc and anticipated that for ...
  11. Microbiology CLEP ?

    www.istudysmart.com has prep tests for many clep and dantes exams. Microbiology is one that they have there. They aren't as cheap as just finding a study guide but they get very into depth with their prep courses. And you do have to buy a textbook fo...
