   I just finished my very first class in my FNP program at Maryville University. It wasn't too bad, but it was definitely sink or swim. I don't have a scheduled class time, but I do have several assignments to complete each week and 35% of my grade i...

2. Is RN or NP required for opening own medspa in California?

   jens2010 replied to beautynursing's topic in Aesthetics

   It is not legal for an MD to simply "sign on". Don't forget in the state of CA you have to have an NP, PA or Dr. perform the initial assessment. This document will answer most of your questions. http://www.mbc.ca.gov/licensees/medical_spas-busines...

   jens2010 replied to beautynursing's topic in Aesthetics

   It depends where you live and your state requirements. For instance, I live in the state of California where it is required that the Dr., an NP or a PA do the initial assessment. More and more medical spas are hiring NPs and PAs instead of RNs beca...

   jens2010 replied to OnTheWaitingList's topic in California

   Luv2bake, Thank you so much for your advice! I know we all appreciate it! Are you going to be on one of the panels? I've been freaked out over the nursing care plans after speaking to a graduate about the program. Are there any other books (or oth...

   Rayni22, Thanks for the info. I'm going there next week for my 2nd Hep B and a varicella titer. :) My understanding is that the Jump Start is two days of workshops to prepare us for the program. I know there is a math workshop for certain, but I'm n...

   jens2010 replied to OnTheWaitingList's topic in California

   Rayn22 the jumpstart is Aug 15 & 16 from 9am-5pm. Has anyone, who does NOT have health insurance, found an affordable place to get varcella and Hep B? I was able to get MMR, TB and T-dap for $10 at the local health clinic. But, they don't do v...

   Calini - I'm fairly certain that I got in through the multicriteria application. I was put on the waitlist approx. 1 1/2 years ago. I received notice in the fall that I had gone from #809 to #330. That's a huge drop! I think Rayni22 said she's bee...

   Congratulations! No confirmation. I emailed first and specifically asked for a confirmation, but I didn't get a reply. So, I called and they said I was already on for the 25th. Makes me nervous too!

    @Rayni22:yeah::w00t::cheers: I'm so excited for you! I know how you feel. I almost bawled when I got my email! Had I not been at work, I surely would have. I'll be at Tuesday's! I'm sure our paths will cross at some point. Hope to see you soon! ...

    Thanks StudentLJinCA ! I'm so happy and relieved. Grossmont rejected me. When I went in to pick up my application I asked what the point cutoff was and the person I spoke with wouldn't tell me. She said that it wasn't entirely based on the point...

    Apparently 81 is the magic number this year. I got into City this fall too with 81. Hurray! I only made alternate last year with the same score. I only needed 3 people to drop, but no one did. I'm not complaining though, this year actually wor...

    WOOT WOO! I got into City this fall. I don't know if it was from the wait list (It'll be two years in August) or the multicriteria. I don't care! Just when I'd given up all hope and started on my plan B. I had to read the email 5 times and then h...
