Hey Everyone,

I am so happy! :roll I am now officially accepted into the Nursing Program at my college!!! I start nursing courses in the fall. I am currently taking prerequisites. Also, I may have a new job, but I won't know until later this week.

Question for anyone from West Virginia, do all the hospitals call Nurse's Aides PCT's (Patient Care Techs)?

Thanks;)

I share your joy with you. I was just accepted into the ADN program this fall!!!!! You can do it...it just takes love and determination. I'm 37 and if I can have the determination you can too. Bravo!!!!!

SICU Queen and Ussie,

Thanks a lot. What I am most worried about is flaking out in clinicals or something. All the nurses I work with tell me that if you can handle being and aide and getting BM or emasis all over you, then you can handle just about anything. Well, I have had both on me YECK and I lived to tell about it. Maybe, just maybe I'll make it through this. I am so nervous yet excited about it.
