Is she looking to work in an LTC facility? The Plaza in Mililani was hiring recently. She could also try calling the different agencies. A few will hire new CNA's. I hear pay is around $11/hr. I...

Definitely challenging! LOTS to read and learn! UGHHH!!! :eek: Had my first exam yesterday, and I know I bombed it! My fault, though! I had a lot going on with my personal life the past two...

No, it's just that I never took Chemistry in high school, so it's all foreign to me. :confused:

Sorry if this sounds like a dumb question, but I started making some flash cards for my A & P class. I prefer Sharpies because I figured the thicker lines would be easier on my old eyes, especially...

We are using Tortora's 12th edition

Any in particular that you liked? Would rather get recommendations that weed through tons of different ones. Sorry to sound lazy but I'm working two jobs and going to school, so it would be great...

I'm taking A & P I this semester and have no Chemistry background. Chemistry is just one lecture class which we just had yesterday. It's SO foreign to me though, so I'm hoping someone might know of...

Thanks, everyone!

A professor has not yet been assigned to my class, so I am unable to email to ask this question. I want to order flashcards but understand that some are arranged by sytem and some by region. How does...

I believe that as well, but unfortunately, it was either take a gamble or not register for the class at all.

I agree! In researching colleges/programs, I soon discovered this myself. If it makes you feel any better, it's the same with medical school. Every program has its own requirements. It would...

ME! ME! ME! There were only a few seats left when I registered. I couldn't believe how quickly they got filled! WHEW !!! :yeah: I have lecture two days a week and lab one day (before class on...

Augie : Would you mind giving a typical end time to your days ? You say you normally start around 6:30 a.m. with that time subject to change. About what time do you leave the clinical site on...

Thanks to all for the replies. I will take what student loans I can to help supplement my income since I will have to reduce work hours once I get into nursing school. Thankfully, I am older and...

Not sure about facility policies but I'm taking a CNA II course (Patient Care Technician) and will be learning to do internal tube feedings (continuous and intermittent). I'm assuming that, if hired...

I just bought some scrubs from Uniforms Hawaii. I know some people buy their scrubs from Wal-Mart also.

I would talk to the advisor and find out where you need to be in order to be competitive. The school I want to attend offers advising sessions where they go over this. They told us how many...

AWESOME! Thanks for sharing!

Could someone tell me about this "Group One" and why they are so awful ? Texas is one of the states I'm considering relocating to. :confused:

That is awesome !!! On a side note: It's so GREAT to meet so many others here that "older". :yeah:

Well, if it makes you feel better, I'm just starting on my prereq's and I will be turning 38 later this year! Is there any way you can take at least one class -- a class that meets once a week or is...

This weekend, I was able to try the Littman Lightweight, Classic II SE and Master Cardiology models. I have never used a stethoscope before. What I had always imagined was that I'd hear a loud,...

I never took Chemistry in high school. The course catalog recommends Chemistry but it isn't a prerequisite. I'm really worried about A & P after hearing so many people say how hard it is. Will it...

Hi, everyone!!! I'm just starting on my prerequisites this fall! I have enrolled in English 100 and Algebra I :crying2: I graduated high school in 1989, soooo....it's been a while! I...

Thanks for the replies. @Lisa : I am actually getting my CNA soon. I start school in a few weeks. My plan is to work p/t so I can see if working with patients is something I can really do. ...
