Im from Union, MO but Im living in STL for my ASN program at Barnes Jewish College of Nursing.

Hi, I'm still taking the prereqs but am planning to attend Barnes for their Upper Divison BSN program. I was just wondering what you think of the ASN program and the school/hospital in general. Any feedback would be great!

Thanks!

Yep Christine, I do know exactly where you are. I was over in Warrenton just the other day. I was doing home health visits and worked my schedule to end up there so I could make a visit to the outlet mall. Didn't find what I was looking for, but I still like going there once in awhile!

I live in Kirkwood, MO and I'm a former teacher turned stay-at-home mom. I was on my way to nursing school when I had an unexpected high risk pregnancy and had to go on bedrest for 10 weeks. Nursing school has been put on hold, but I have all of my prereqs completed, so I would still love to go when my boys are in school. I was on my way to Barnes-Jewish for the ASN program, but I am now considering an accelerated BSN program or ASN at St. Louis Community College. I just don't know if I can do it financially and if I'll be able to juggle home life and school life. We'll see.... I hope I can go some day. In the meantime, I love reading all about the ins and outs of the profession on this website.

Hello! I am a nursing student, Springfield area. Last weekend in St. Louis at the Student Nurses Convention we were talking about working in jails/prisons. My instructor wasn't familiar with it, but several years ago my family use to take babies from our local prison (SoCa) and temporarily raise them. We also were a part of a M2 ministry. So how do you like your work there? Thank you. Winona :paw:

Hi, everyone. I live in SWMO and will begin my pre-req's at St. John's in Springfield in January. I'm hopeful to then be accepted into the nursing program in spring '08. I nearly went to nursing school right out of high school (22 years ago.....) and feel so excited that the calling for this profession never left me. I look forward to visiting here often and talking with you all. Rich
