   No, I just completed it at a community college. The CA BON is so funny about things, and I didn't want to take any chances.

3. Does the track really matter?

   lck8119 posted a topic in NP Students

   I am looking into NP schools and am having a hard time deciding on which path to take. Does it really matter if you do the FNP track vs a FNP/Adult-Geron NP track? The courses look very similar, but I am wondering if the dual role would really be nec...

4. Being a new nurse sucks

   lck8119 replied to bluehealer's topic in General Nursing

   Hang in there. Nursing school prepares you for the NCLEX BUT not necessarily real world experiences. I learned more my first 6 weeks of being a nurse than I did as a nursing student. When I precept , I try to remember how it was as a new grad and don...

   lck8119 replied to lck8119's topic in California

   No I still haven't found one. Ugh! If I do hear of something I'll let you know. There has to be an online course somewhere.

6. Microbiology with lab

   lck8119 posted a topic in California

   I am submitted an application by endorsement and was told I need a microbiology with lab course for a CA nursing license. I will have to take the class online due to my work schedule. Does anyone know of an affordable online college that offers a mic...

8. Weak stomache?

   lck8119 replied to Future-AZ-Nurse's topic in General Students

   I have a VERY weak stomach, but surprisingly I don't really get sick at the hospital. I think because I am just focusing on caring for the patient. Now on the ride home, I sometimes gag a little when I think back. Oh, and I always have to take 2 bath...

9. Anatomy/Physiology Coloring Book

   lck8119 replied to nohika's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Hmm, honestly I would wait on the coloring book and color it as you learn the different systems. I would go ahead and start learning to identify things using a book, but I'd wait for the coloring. The coloring book really helps with the little detail...

    lck8119 replied to bluechick112's topic in CNA/MA

    Yes! I received my date I had to take it in the mail 3 weeks before the exam. I only had 3 weeks to read the CNA book and practice the skills. It can be done. I read the book the first 2 weeks and practiced the skills the last week. You tube really h...

11. CNA Exam Dilemma! Help!

    lck8119 replied to bluechick112's topic in CNA/MA

    I agree that youtube.com will help. Just search for the skills that you want to see. Also, don't worry about there being so many steps. It looks like a lot, but really most steps are common sense. Practice the skills on someone. I challenged the exam...

12. challenging the CNA exam?

    lck8119 replied to Jmas7's topic in CNA/MA

    If you are saying you want to be a CNA while you are in school, then I think it would be worth a shot. I challenged the CNA exam because I have to be a CNA before I start nursing school in the Fall. I didn't have time to take a CNA course. I don't kn...

15. GOT ACCEPTED...NO BABYSITTER:((( What to do??

    lck8119 replied to Luckygirl77's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I would definitely try Craigslist.com. There are a lot of in home daycares that are open during those times. I would be sure to check references. You shouldn't have any trouble finding anyone on craigslist. I used to have an inhome daycare, and that'...
