1. Chaffey College Nursing Program( Rancho Cucamonga)

   Chaffey Student replied to Driven110404's topic in California

   Do you like being brow beat ? How about belittled ? Do you thrive on being reminded that your mistakes could cost an instructor their license if you make a mistake ? Do you like being treated like a child, being reminded that you don't know anything ...

2. Need some advice - Mt. San Antonio College nursing program

   Chaffey Student replied to barcode120x's topic in California

   Already have a number from the late 70's. Took some law enforcement courses between times in service while I waited to see if positions were going to open in '77. LE jobs were frozen so I joined the Army and was a military policeman until '81 then sp...

3. Need some advice - Mt. San Antonio College nursing program

   Chaffey Student replied to barcode120x's topic in California

   I'm thinking I should start by taking all of my transcripts to a counselor. Do they have counselors that specifically focus on the ADN program ? Once I get an Idea what I'm working with, the next step is to make sure I have all of the necessary prere...

4. Need some advice - Mt. San Antonio College nursing program

   Chaffey Student replied to barcode120x's topic in California

   I already bailed. I got tired of the negative reinforcement. I want to go somewhere where I can actually learn without feeling like I'm being dogged. I have a lot of life experiences and I was doing vital signs before my instructors went into nursing...

   Chaffey Student replied to barcode120x's topic in California

   Thank you for that. That tells me a lot. I feel I made an incredible mistake by not doing a little research before applying. I don't particularly like the snobbery that faculty display at Chaffey, and I think my personality and the personalities of t...

   Chaffey Student replied to barcode120x's topic in California

   Here's the deal with the first semester instructors. The material is simply overwhelming, even for an "A" student. Pile on top of that the daily and unforeseen things and it becomes daunting. Add to that work, and you have nearly impossible. But do t...

   Chaffey Student replied to barcode120x's topic in California

   The faculty at Chaffey makes Mt Sac the butt of their jokes and I find that rather arrogant when you consider that we all have to take the same N-CLEX to get licensed. Because of their attitudes I'm considering dropping the Chaffey program and going ...

8. Still unemployed in San Diego :(

   Chaffey Student replied to alley0323's topic in California

   At what point did I bad mouth the VA ? I am a patient at the VA and my primary care physician works at Loma Linda University and the Loma Linda VA. You certainly misread my post.

   Hey Alley, check this out. https://www.usajobs.gov/GetJob/ViewDetails/352175800 The only drawback is that hours aren't guaranteed. But it does say that yearly salary is between 64 and 115 THOUSAND dollars a year. So go for it, and when you put your ...

10. Still unemployed in San Diego :(

    Chaffey Student replied to alley0323's topic in California

    Okay, but there's more than one VA. For instance, I go to the Loma Linda VA and I've been told that they are understaffed. They even have a recruiting page and I have been told by people there that they do have a new grad program. So you may want to ...

    Think about working for the VA. They are constantly understaffed.

12. Chaffey College ADN Program Spring 2012

    Chaffey Student replied to hizwifey's topic in California

    This thread is over a year old but that's okay. Bottom line is, if I knew then what I know now, there is no way that I would consider applying to Chaffey College for the ADN program. The arrogance and elitist attitude of some of the faculty is outrag...

13. Chaffey College ADN Program

    Chaffey Student replied to Chaffey Student's topic in California

    It's just like that and the only way it would stop is if people refused to go to chaffey. But they will keep coming because of chaffey's rep.

14. Chaffey College ADN Program

    Chaffey Student posted a topic in California

    Just finished reading a thread about the ADN program at Chaffey college in So Cal. I am currently in their program so I want to give to you what I didn't have going into the program. 1. First and foremost, stay below the radar. Don't give them any re...
