  1. Used CPR on my neighbors toddler today... it wasn't enough... warning, graphic..

    LuckyMoon replied to NursingInChaos's topic in General Nursing

    To some, the description of an unconscious child gurgling as a first responder desperately tries to resuscitate, would be considered graphic. I imagine the OP was trying to warn people who might be...

  2. BSN vs ADN with current BS

    LuckyMoon posted a topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Hi everyone, I know this has been discussed to some degree in past topics, but I would be curious to hear people's current opinions regarding whether to pursue a BSN or an ADN as a second career...

  3. BSN vs ADN with current BS

    LuckyMoon replied to LuckyMoon's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    After taking the TEAS, I started to take the steps to sign up for the HESI, but then decided for the time being, it wasn't worth it to me. There was only one program I was planning on applying to that...

  4. BSN vs ADN with current BS

    LuckyMoon replied to LuckyMoon's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Thank you TheCommuter and dishes. I appreciate the responses. I am leaning towards the BSN route anyway, but hearing the opinions of people working in the field is reassuring that spending the extra...

  5. Sacramento State Fall 2017

    LuckyMoon replied to AspiringNP/CNM's topic in School, College Programs

    Definitely exciting to get that email... Not as exciting as it will be to get an official answer

  6. Sacramento State Fall 2017

    LuckyMoon replied to AspiringNP/CNM's topic in School, College Programs

    Right on! There are so many things to consider with all of this. I am assuming Sacramento must just be a more convenient location if you are willing to wait a year to start when you have already been...

  7. Sacramento State Fall 2017

    LuckyMoon replied to AspiringNP/CNM's topic in School, College Programs

    Have you thought about taking that English class over again? 94% is a great TEAS score and with that 4.0 science GPA I'd say one extra English class would be worth the trouble.. of course I am not...

  8. Please Don't Judge Patients

    LuckyMoon replied to NurseLife88's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Agreed.

  9. I didn't become a nurse to feed people's addictions. Do *nurses* have the right to refuse

    LuckyMoon replied to Thankgodforativan's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    While I understand how the situation described by the OP might be frustrating, I finished the post feeling quite sorry for the young woman causing the OP grief. What a sad and miserable situation. I...

  10. You Don't Really Need Chemistry For Nursing, Do You?

    LuckyMoon replied to smalli's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree with the above. As I am still applying to programs, I can't speak to how much chemistry is used in nursing school or on the job. However, I believe that understanding chemistry allows one...

  11. Concordia Irvine 2017

    LuckyMoon replied to LuckyMoon's topic in School, College Programs

    I believe the Chemistry for Allied Health should be fine. From Concordia's website: Chemistry** (with lab) Chemistry course must be college level coursework. General and/or Introductory to Chemistry...

  12. Concordia Irvine 2017

    LuckyMoon replied to LuckyMoon's topic in School, College Programs

    Hey there imtoonice! Sorry I am a month late responding here. I have been so busy the last month I had pretty much zero time for social media. I did check with them and the Chem I am taking does...

  13. Accelerated Nursing acceptance

    LuckyMoon replied to Mlogan's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I understand how you feel. I have a similar undergrad GPA (~3.4). Although I have a 4.0 science GPA and scored over 95% on the TEAS (completed science prerequisites, remaining non-science courses, and...

  14. Is 35 too old to start from Scratch?

    LuckyMoon replied to BellaGrl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    @pmabraham, That is incredible! Congratulations on your success. I realize this may not be the appropriate place to ask you questions but at some point I'd be curious to hear your thoughts on the...

  15. Is 35 too old to start from Scratch?

    LuckyMoon replied to BellaGrl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi BellaGrl, I would like to offer you some words of encouragement. In some ways I am in a very similar situation, and in some ways my situation is also a bit different. Like you I am 35. I started...
