1. Midwife??

   dizzyelizzy replied to dizzyelizzy's topic in Ob/Gyn

   First off: thank you for the responses! I think birth center or home birth would be closer to the route I'd like to go! As far as extra experience or a job, do you think PICU or NICU would be good places to work while working towards my CNM? Or just ...

   dizzyelizzy replied to biwa's topic in Career Support

   Just wanted to say this is a great topic ! I too was looking into PC and Docs w/o Borders and this extra info is fantastic ! Thank you !

3. Surprising my parents about getting accepted?!

   dizzyelizzy replied to SUL2012's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Maybe you can invite them to come out to your campus for a dinner or something? I know I wouldn't be able to contain myself over such good news!! But going home might be the nicest thing for you and your parents to celebrate in a loving environment!!...

4. I want to be a nurse but I cant get over my fear, please help!!!

   dizzyelizzy replied to JT0612's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Sorry it's been so long since I've responded!! But I would encourage you to look into social work or maybe something along the lines of counseling? It would probably be a lot more enjoyable for you if you didn't have to deal with the physical pain as...

5. Midwife??

   dizzyelizzy posted a topic in Ob/Gyn

   Hi all! So I just wanted to ask, if I may, (and hopefully this is the right place to get some answers!) about how to become a midwife! I'm working towards my BSN right now... but what about after that? What area should I focus on or try to get a job ...

6. Waiting for LCCC response?

   dizzyelizzy replied to dizzyelizzy's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Just to let anyone else know, they have a two year waiting list: FORGET THAT!! I applied to Ursuline and was accepted! I start this Fall. Such a better move in my opinion. Not only will I have a BSN when I graduate, but I also won't have to wait an u...

7. Has anyone ever put down your career choice?

   dizzyelizzy replied to Servingshots's topic in General Students

   In my opinion, it doesn't matter if you are wiping butts or administering life saving medications... you are HELPING people. And that is more than most of the world can say.

9. Army Nurse Lifestyle

   dizzyelizzy posted a topic in Government

   I posted another topic recently but this just has to do with lifestyle. My main concern is my 1 year old dog I recently rescued. I won't graduate until around Spring 2014 (most likely) so this is a far off concern. But if I do go military, what will ...

10. Potential Nurse: Should I join the military?

    dizzyelizzy replied to NurseStudentBelle's topic in Government

    I would for sure talk to someone who is currently in the military about this and encourage you not to view the army as an "easy way out" so to speak. Like nurse2033 said, if you join solely to have a way to pay for school, it's probably not going to ...

11. Questions about being an Army Nurse

    dizzyelizzy posted a topic in Government

    Hello everyone! I am currently waiting to hear back from a 4 year program (it would take me three years with my transfer credit) and am hoping to receive my BSN from there. My thoughts are turning towards joining the army as a nurse once I finish. M...

12. I want to be a nurse but I cant get over my fear, please help!!!

    dizzyelizzy replied to JT0612's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I just was curious as to what your reason to want to be a nurse is? Have you looked into other professions that aren't medical but still deal with helping people?? Also, is it only physical pain, or do you take into account mental pain?

13. Lorain CCC

    dizzyelizzy replied to chimarie's topic in Ohio

    So now people say it's a 2 year wait? How could I possibly wait two years? That's almost 6 years for an associates degree? Is anyone else crying bull at this? If I don't get it, I don't know what I'm going to do. Nursing is all I want to do...

14. Lorain CCC

    dizzyelizzy replied to chimarie's topic in Ohio

    good luck!! I was thinking about filling the time by going to their Nurse Aid classes and doing that for a while. I didn't realize when I decided to transfer how incredibly busy their program is!! But I've heard such great things about their nursing ...

15. Lorain CCC

    dizzyelizzy replied to chimarie's topic in Ohio

    Reading this makes me nervous, I applied this summer to go in the Spring, but am taking the Sociology class online (transfer student and it wasn't required at my old school). But I came from a good college, got great grades, I really feel like I did ...
