Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner. The problem is that almost all hospitals are owned by corporations, and the number one concern of any corporation is profit. When I entered my prerequisites for...

I am a patient care technician. It is basically a CNA with a little extra in hospital training to do things like EKG’s DC (discontinue) Foleys and IV’s. in the ER you may also be asked to things like...

I am in a similar boat. I work full time Thr,Fri,sat, 12 hr nights. Just took my final for the first semester and was the only overall A in the class. there were other that didn’t work at all and...

i just have to ask. why will you be getting a free waiver?

O.P same here and I feel the same way. we have our CNA check offs, and medical abbreviation test the first day, and a med math test the second week. if we don't get 100% by the start of the third...

I would try for a hospital job. Being CNA in a acute care is very different than long term care. I just have to ask why would you prefer ltc for CNA? I have worked both, and prefer the hospital...

My wife has been working on this for a couple of weeks, and I want to help her out and get going in the right direction. her original one was coacertation of the aorta but now she feels that is...

I bet if you were to respond you would get a reply on how they could train you (for a fee). Most likely some diploma mill. This would have to be about the worst time to be a real-estate agent. They...

In reality both are good choices; it all depends on one’s personal situation. So neither one should be saying to the other you are making a bad choice. It sounds like you are doing some wise...

Not in a hospital but before I worked in a hospital I was a bricklayer for twenty years, so no HIPPA to worry about. We did a house for stenstrum when he was quarterback of the Chicago bears. He...

if the DON just hired " a bunch" of new nurses, chances are one or two are not going to work out so you might get an opening sooner than you think.

If you already have a BA you should look into an acelorated BSN program. you would most likely get done in the same amount of time but have a BSN. those numbers just don't seem right for a CC. sounds...

where are the clinicles for each? that may make a difference as to which to choose. i personaly would choose an established one over a new one.

For most if not all of the community colleges you need to be in district. If you established an in district address and, but lived in the city you would have to look up the metra rail system, but...

That is kind of hard to answer, for I think there are allot. I am from the north west suburbs of Chicago so here is my list in no particular order. Harper, Elgin community college, college of lake...

I was just accepted now I am wondering what to study ahead of time, and what your true thoughts of the program are?

yes..... I applied in early march and just got my acceptance letter today. :)

I know I am going to get flamed here but, just to be devils advocate here. how many nurses here would be ok if there husband told them I just want to be a CNA (making CNA wages) ? With no ambition...

personally I like this one it lets the patient know what to expect.

Wow how sad you two think so little of your co-workers. Are there lazy CNA’s yes , but there are probably just as many lazy RNs as well. Thankfully where I work we get a little more responsibility...

I think I would suggest to start worrying more about your patients and less of others. If you are not the charge nurse or the manager stop acting as one. When you constantly give management problems...
