Mercy Miami

Published

Hi All,

So I breezed through the Kaplan and honestly regrets taking the two weeks off work to study (ended up not studying at all and still passed with a 156). I have now submitted all my documents and am waiting for a call to interview. Is there anyone else applying to the spring term? The administrators there told me they placed me into the night group. I guess we don't get a choice on preference.

Hi CodeBrownQueen,

I would so love to talk perhaps via phone/skype...Perhaps we could find a moment? I know very very very little about the nursing field today though years ago, I really thought that that would be my destiny - back then I was thinking about working for the Native American Health Service.. or as a Community Public Health Nurse...

Now those jobs don't look the same. I will likely look for a great clinic setting.

What are you doing now?

What do you really want to do?

What do you mean when you say "programmatic" vs "real world" ? ?

You say new chancleor... I would really like to talk if we can.

I have been looking at Mercy because it is relatively affordable and as my old BS was in biological sciences I have just about ALL the science pre-reqs. And, given I have the sciences, I am hoping that I will be able to work at the same time that I am doing the LPN program... As I can't afford to pay for rent/living costs without working. Did you work during your program?

I know 2 guys who have quit LPN work completely in the last 2 years while I've been looking at nursing..... They say the work culture is 'toxic" ?

I am thinking to try to go straight into an NP program where the work environment is hopefully more healthy...fair..professional...positive... ?

How much did you pay to be at Mercy?

Did you not receive excellent training which prepared you for 'real life' nursing ? jeezz .. Then what do we do?

Can we talk ???? ?❤️❤️ ❤️ Let me know! feel free to send me a number - I'm at [email protected]
