    Multicollinearity replied to spudbunny's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Rio Salado Community College

    Multicollinearity replied to spudbunny's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Here's what is bothering me. I was in class and I mentioned that I am considering Rio Salado for nursing. A student, a CNA at a local hospital said something like "the nurses at the hospital I work...

    Rio Salado Community College

    Multicollinearity replied to spudbunny's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Thank you for letting me know how it works. Frankly, I find most of class time to be a waste. I prefer to read and teach myself. That sounds like I would be tailor made for online nursing with Rio,...

    Rio Salado Community College

    Multicollinearity replied to spudbunny's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'm curious with online courses, if you see recorded lectures. I had an advisor at my school (not Rio) tell me that the online courses are just a form letter from an instructor with a bit of...

    Multicollinearity replied to spudbunny's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'm considering doing Rio Salado for nursing. I have googled it, but I'm just not finding stats for Rio. I discovered that NAU had a pass rate of 67% one year. Scary! For the courses you are...

    Pre-nursing diabetics

    Multicollinearity replied to narcissistic's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think high fructose corn syrup is so very very bad. You are absolutely correct, it's time to eat food that resembles um...food. Like fruits, veggies, nuts, meats. You know, food that doesn't come in...

    I'm considering Rio for nursing. I haven't been able to locate Rio's average NCLEX scores though. Does anyone have any idea? Even a rough

    I have a mild case of Samter's Triad. Samter's is a combo of three things (triad). 1) Allergy to aspirin and cross reactivity with NSAIDS. 2) Nasal polyps. 3) Asthma. I haven't been in an ER...

    Multicollinearity replied to Rohan's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My father has made arrangements to donate his body to the local medical school. He will someday be explored by medical students, as a cadaver. He's a hypochondriac. It's his dream...so much...

    Pre-nursing diabetics

    Multicollinearity replied to narcissistic's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My doctor ignored my complaints of symptoms of hypoglycemia for a while. He mentioned that it is a 'fad diagnosis' blah blah blah. Then one day it got really bad and I went to urgent care. My blood...

    Taking care of ourselves

    Multicollinearity posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't think I'm projecting my own woes when I say that I see a common theme among many threads here of not taking care of ourselves. I used to go to the gym 4-5 days per week. I used to eat...

    Taking care of ourselves

    Luckily I don't need to lose weight now, but a few years ago I lost 30 pounds. I did it by ridding my diet of all bread, sugar, and grain based stuff. What do you think? After the first few days...

    Stressful Times and Sometimes Lonely... Can Anyone Relate?

    Multicollinearity replied to iheartnursing_cali's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I cannot believe I missed that sentence in your post about your parents being deceased. I am so sorry. I cannot imagine your pain. Is there any way you could go to therapy? It's not that you are...

    Nursing Unions-what is the good,bad, ugly?

    Multicollinearity replied to johnson0424's topic in General Nursing

    Just an observation from a student here. I have eight uncles on one side of my extended family. Five of them are late 50's early 60's retired truck drivers in California. They are quite anti-union....

    Stressful Times and Sometimes Lonely... Can Anyone Relate?

    Multicollinearity replied to iheartnursing_cali's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm sorry you are having a hard time. I feel lonely too. I looked at some of the threads I've started and noticed that they are all fear-based. For me fear and loneliness go together, I don't know...

    Can I REALLY be a nurse?

    Multicollinearity replied to zoprack's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think it would be unrealistic for someone to log into your thread and say "Go for it, follow your dream, be a nurse!" Only you can know if you are a good match for nursing. I'd recommend doing some...

    Why can't we have breaks?

    Multicollinearity replied to Alex3's topic in General Nursing

    Dare I say, in the Untied States of America, the corporations that own hospitals literally suck dry their staff and overwork them to the point of burn out. There is just more worker protection in...
