   Deuceswild1 replied to mandi_91's topic in Entrepreneurs

   I have been a Set Medic for 4 years, I have done movies, shows, concerts, sports, and a bunch of crazy random things (hot dog eating contests etc.) I have seen RNs utilized at events, but it is not a full time gig, one company out by me is Simmons Am...

   Deuceswild1 replied to djgirl4's topic in School Programs

   I am in the nursing core portion at the Ontario campus, yes there are plenty of grads from here getting jobs. My honest opinion it is less about the school and more about who you are. As far as clinical sites there is at least 4-5 sites per term per ...

6. End of CCT Nurses in California?

   Deuceswild1 replied to TraumaSurfer's topic in Flight

   Being an EMT on a CCT unit for many years in so cal, and knowing these IFT medics that will be filling these positions will be scary. I am assuming they are mostly pushing this because of the cost of a medic vs. an RN. It is weird that orange county ...

10. How to read and study nursing textbooks?

15. EMT-Basic (maybe?) during nursing school?

    Deuceswild1 replied to rldubz's topic in General Students

    I work as an EMT part time, and am in an accelerated BSN program. Problem I see is that I had been an EMT 2 years prior to starting so finding part-time work was easy, it is hard to come by a part time position that will hire a fresh EMT.
