  1. Reason for leaving?

    I recently left a job where I received 5 weeks of training on a busy tele floor at a long term acute care hospital. As a new grad I felt it was not enough time, but it is not the hospital's fault and I am not sure how to answer this question on appli...
  2. Not sure I am right for nursing.

    Pretty sure I am going to quit. I just cannot keep up with the pace and will never be able to be the leader over 8 patients. I hate the idea of quitting because it will be even harder to find another job, but I have only felt decent one day. Every da...
  3. Not sure I am right for nursing.

    MW, Gah, my first reply seems to have disappeared. Sorry to hear about your mental health (I totally get it) issues and family dynamic, it is very stressful to try and balance a new career that you worked so hard to achieve in such a stressful en...
  4. Not sure I am right for nursing.

    I am a new grad (May 2014) who finished her BSN online in Dec 2015, and landed her first job at a LTAC. I am finished with 3rd week of my 5 week orientation as a new grad and I am struggling with the workload and with confidence as I am almost 2 year...
  5. University of Louisiana Lafayette (ULL) RN-BSN Experience

    Hailesky69, Not sure if it is too late but I think 355 and 396 are doable together. Granted I was not working and do not have kids but I was taking one 4 credit class at a time in the beginning and thought that was plenty. Then I ended taking 355, 39...

  7. What is University of Lousiana at Lafayette nursing program like?

    I started this program in October of 2014 and will hopefully finish in December of 2015. I am in the RN to BSN program with a previous B.S. It is completely 100% online and the professors are helpful. I found everyone easily accessible and willing t...
  8. University of Louisiana-Lafayette online RN-BSN

    I took them one at a time, and if you are organized and motivated you could take them together I suppose but it is a good amount of work. A quiz each week in both, each has 3 discussion and responses.406 has a final project where you critique an arti...

    Hi Margaret, I don't know if it inexpensive enough but University Louisiana Lafayette is $9500 or $313 a unit for 30 nursing units (9 classes). It is set up to finish in about a year or about 6 7-week sections. I am only on my third section but eac...
  10. Personal Mental Health Issue

    Please go and get the help you need. Your mental health is very important. I know I had issues that developed in nursing school and with the help of a counselor and medication I was able to finish. Remember HIPAA applies to everyone.
  11. University of Louisiana Lafayette (ULL) RN-BSN Experience

    I also start on Oct 20th and need 2 extra classes not covered by my first bachelors, Eng Lit and an art type class. But I thought the process to apply and get registered has been easy and am nervous, but looking forward to starting in couple of week...
  12. concept maps

    Suni, I just finished my ADN program which used concept mapping last May. I understand the use of concept mapping, but I hated having to complete them. I found making sure you have the priority nursing diagnoses and completing a thorough patho (wha...
  13. need some encouragement!

    I understand too, my parents think I am uber smart and a really hard worker and I feel like I have a bit of luck on my side and that I just have not been diagnosed with attention deficit disorder yet (LOL). They just do not get nursing school and ho...
  14. Anyone working on "Extra Goals"?

    I am in the summer break in the middle of a 2 year program and just joined a gym with the intention of losing weight. I know it is needed and will only help me in school and life. I only gained a couple of pounds during the first year but being over...
