   Me: I go through my book and put post it bookmarks in all of the chapters that are going to be on the next test. I fold down my notes and seperate them by what test they will be on. I read through it on my own. Then, I'll read through it again lat...

2. Lawson State/Jeff State Fall 2011 Hopefuls?

   LSCC: No disrespect meant, but my post was from March 23rd, the FAQ section on the LSCC website wasn't revised until April 19th, according to the time stamp on the LSCC page. The nursing email wasn't established until I had already applied elsewhere...

   I did mine on the 7th too, and all but the county came back the next day. The whole thing was complete within the week. I don't think it is supposed to take more than 10 days. If it's not completed by noon tomorrow I would call somebody!

   CNA2bRN13 replied to tvmoore5's topic in Alabama

   That would mean I would have to take 3 more classes to be full time, since I only have 2 nursing credits. EEK. I only have a few classes left that I can take towards the bachelors too. I'm going to see what other options I have tomorrow. Pell doe...

   CNA2bRN13 replied to tvmoore5's topic in Alabama

   I'm on pell, but the nursing courses this semester only count for two credits. I hope they don't make me take two or three other classes to stay full time. I have to have it! Has anyone else asked someone in the nursing dept how this works? I know...

   CNA2bRN13 replied to tvmoore5's topic in Alabama

   I hate that we have to graduate two semesters later, but I'm going to be so glad I did PT when adult nursing, and Maternal/child nursing are separated instead of being thrown in my face at once. Plus, going through NS and not working just isn't a re...

   CNA2bRN13 replied to mar12011's topic in CNA/MA

   I thought I was the same way and I had to get my teacher to help me with a patient who was very obese. Now, my teacher is 70 years old and she came in there and whipped that lady right up like it was nothing!! And she is teeny tiny too. I was joking ...

10. New grad taking ACLS course??

    CNA2bRN13 replied to nurseypoo87's topic in New Nurse

    How about taking it BEFORE nursing school? I start in August, but the AHA course has a CE credit in ACLS and PALS that says it is for EMT-Bs and Nurses, etc., so I would assume that someone who isn't a nurse could take the actual course if the Conti...

    @Paige: Yes, just make sure you sign up for the BLS and NOT heartsaver. It will say BLS for Healthcare Providers: Part One. You print off the certificate and take it up to the Fire Dept, and you show your skills and you will be out of there within...

    CNA2bRN13 replied to tvmoore5's topic in Alabama

    I'm have to get my shots tomorrow, and I'm just going to get the doctor to write down everything that was done, and hopefully they will be okay with it. I'm guessing we will have to scan our CPR cards and such and upload it on the background check ...

    Also, go to http://www.scrubsandbeyond.com and take a look. They have some nursing student stuff. I bought a nursing kit for about 70 dollars. That's supposedly a good deal. (I guess) The compression stockings are a lifesaver (used them for CNA clini...

    I still haven't received the package that has all of the info...and I really wish they would hurry. I have to get my Hep B second dose on the 8th or I have to start all over, but I was really wanting the form from the school so they can fill it out f...

    I just finished up my CNA, and the next day I got the phone call that I got in the nursing school I wanted! The school took 8 weeks to start calling people...it was torture! My nursing orientation is July 19th, and school starts August 18th...and I...
