  1. NCLEX-RN Which books to use?

    I'm sure this question has been asked a bunch of times but here goes. I am planning to take my test in Jan/Feb. basically as soon as I get approved. I am deciding on a few books and wanted your input. Saunder's Questions Bank Saunder's Med/Surg Revie...
  2. Love the Concept- Will it be Respected?

    I have the same concerns about WGU. Also keep in mind that because WGU requires a "B" to pass a course this also means that your overall GPA will automatically be a 3.0. It can't be higher and it can't be lower if you pass the entire program. For tha...
  3. How I got into CRNA school.

    I think I am going through the same dilemma that you went through. I graduate my RN ADN program this Dec. and I start my BSN program in March. I am/was planning to do it through WGU (i'm sure you've seen the ads on this page) but they work on a pass/...
  4. UCLA RN to Paramedic Bridge

    Ya that was the biggest concern was the cost. I do enjoy the ambulance aspect, but I was mostly considering the bridge because I figured it would make me more valuable for flight nurse/medic transport later on.
  5. UCLA RN to Paramedic Bridge

    I was an EMT-I for a few years with private and 911 transport companies. Anywhere from IFT's to medical emergencies to trauma. I would like to think that I have both mindsets. Just don't have the time to go to paramedic school separately while trying...
  6. Important Certifications for RNs?

    I have a job right out of school at my Hospice company (they will just promote me from LVN to RN). My current school is the Los Angeles County General Hospital so they do prefer their own graduates and hire ADNs even directly into ER and ICU. I am pl...
  7. Important Certifications for RNs?

    It is an RN to Paramedic back-bridge. You need an RN license, some experience, and about 20 classroom days with a bunch of 24 hour ride alongs with an emergency ambulance company. I was an EMT-I and really enjoyed the "in the field" aspect of healthc...
  8. Western Governor's University BSN?

    The specific school and program I'm looking to do after WGU is the UCLA acute critical care nurse specialist. Just worried this won't be accepted.
  9. Finished my MSN this morning - ask me anything!

    I was told by the admissions person that if I didn't finish a course by then the end of a term then I could just continue it in my next term. You are saying it's automatically an F and I would have to start that class from the beginning next term? Th...
  10. Nov 1 RN to BSN

    I think I will have approximately 33 or 34 units as well. The people that completed 34 in just over 6 months is it possible to complete all 34 in the 6 months? Or was this already you guy going super fast?
  11. UCLA RN to Paramedic Bridge

    I am interested in the UCLA RN to Paramedic back-bridge because of my interest in emergency and trauma care. Is this program worth it? It is nearly $10,000 but other than it just being "cool" to have a paramedic license will this necessarily open up ...
  12. Important Certifications for RNs?

    I will be graduating my RN ADN program in December. I want to know what are some important certifications or licenses that I should get immediately or be aiming for? I will of course be getting my ACLS and PALS as soon as possible to get a hospital j...
  13. Hello, I am currently an LVN at the LA County College of Nursing and Allied Health. I will graduate with my RN ADN by the end of December. I am currently looking into Western Governor's University (WGU). This would be an online program entirely with ...

    patients with hypothyroidism are more sensitive to this drug and therefore need a LOWER dose to avoid toxicity
