2. crna

   sarahlpnwannabe posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

   hey! here's what might be a dumb question: you can become a crna after becoming an rn, correct? I mean, that's pretty obvious, but what I mean is, once you're an rn, can you continue on to become a crna without needing to become or take anything in b...

3. phobia of puke

   sarahlpnwannabe replied to sarahlpnwannabe's topic in Pre-Nursing

   well I REALLLLYYY hope that I get over it because I'm seriously doubting whether nursing is really for me. Everyone I talk to for some advice kinda looks at me like "are you serious? Nurses can't have phobias of anything gross." things like that, you...

   sarahlpnwannabe posted a topic in Massachusetts

   hi! :wink2: I'm applying to the LPN program at Lowell Tech in Tyngsboro that starts in late August. I'm due to take the NET in early May. I'm super excited about it and I really really REALLY hope I get into the program. My question is the following:...

5. CNAs in Mass Hospitals

   sarahlpnwannabe replied to sarahlpnwannabe's topic in Massachusetts

   that actually does help a whole lot because I figured if I can't get a hospital job then I'll just work for a nursing home and try again at a hospital at a later time. But everyone does tell me that working at a hospital and getting the feel of it wi...

6. Simmons versus MGH Direct Entry Nursing

   sarahlpnwannabe replied to questionableresource's topic in Massachusetts

   Well you say that MGH has a very good rep so I would go with that choice simply because that might give you extra points against other nurses that might want the same job as you once your all done with school and looking for work. But if you want to ...

7. CNAs in Mass Hospitals

   sarahlpnwannabe posted a topic in Massachusetts

   hi :) I'm wondering if there are any CNAs out there who are currently working, or have previously worked, in any Mass hospitals? I ask only becuase I'm starting my CNA class soon and I'd really like to work in a hospital since I plan on furthering my...

8. Anything negative to say about nursing?

   sarahlpnwannabe replied to sarahlpnwannabe's topic in General Nursing

   I actually found the forum on indeed.com, not on this site. I know it's something I'll have to try out on my own before I know whether or not I like it; which is why I'm only starting out as a CNA and not diving head first into going to nursing schoo...

9. Anything negative to say about nursing?

   sarahlpnwannabe posted a topic in General Nursing

   hey all :) I was online the other day and came across a forum about nursing. Someone had asked how many people actually like their jobs as a nurse and are happy with their career choice. Well, the people who responded, who all claimed to be nurses, w...

10. NCLEX ? in different states

    sarahlpnwannabe replied to ORhopeful's topic in General Nursing

    good to know. thanks =]

11. NCLEX ? in different states

    sarahlpnwannabe replied to ORhopeful's topic in General Nursing

    I dont think it matters where you go to school as long as you're licensed to work in the state where you actually want to work. I'm pretty sure you'll be able to take the test in CA once you're done with school, you might not be forced to take it in ...

12. Should I go for LVN or RN

    sarahlpnwannabe replied to want2banurse09's topic in General Nursing

    yeah that's what I though. I'm in Mass and it's LPN here. I'm also doing LPN courses too before I dive into RN. AND I'm starting CNA classes in about a month before I do LPN...it's good to start at the bottom and work your way up, so in that case, I...

13. Should I go for LVN or RN

    sarahlpnwannabe replied to want2banurse09's topic in General Nursing

    It seems as though your ultimate goal is to achieve your RN degree so wont you have to take and pass a chemistry class anyhow? I would suggest getting a tutor and sticking with the RN program. However, trophywife81 brings up a good point. Working as ...

14. phobia of puke

    sarahlpnwannabe replied to sarahlpnwannabe's topic in Pre-Nursing

    thanks for the input...i guess i should just wait and see how to best deal with it. i have a little girl too and, sure i get really anxious when she's sick to her tummy, but once it happens i just kinda deal with it. so maybe it'll be the same once i...

15. phobia of puke

    sarahlpnwannabe posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

    hello I have a question...probably a dumb one but I have to ask. I'm gonna be starting CNA classes in May and I'm really excited about it. My main goal is to eventually become an RN but I'm taking baby steps first. I really want to be a nurse cause I...
