  1. Less Applicants for Nursing Programs?

    kukukajoo replied to pagandeva2000's topic in General Nursing

    This is way more than any college president in the community colleges in NH are making, nevermind department

  2. Warning - Thieves

    kukukajoo replied to yellowbrickroad's topic in General Nursing

    kukukajoo replied to KMW's topic in General Nursing

  4. Warning - Thieves

    kukukajoo replied to yellowbrickroad's topic in General Nursing

    Did you file a police report? It sounds like someone working there is stealing the numbers and should be prosecuted. A few months ago I had some VERY similar charges on my card from a company called...

  5. Being denied employment because of a credit check :(

    kukukajoo replied to Dunno?'s topic in General Nursing

    kukukajoo replied to General E. Speaking, RN's topic in General Nursing

  7. Is The Co$t Worth It?

    kukukajoo replied to Etana85's topic in Connecticut Nursing

  10. Need some advice on student loans....

    kukukajoo replied to jnmoore02's topic in Male Nursing Students

    What is the interest rate you are paying on the car loan? Also, is the interest deffered or accruing while in school? You may find that it will cost you lots more to do a student loan than pay on the...

  12. Is The Co$t Worth It?

    kukukajoo replied to Etana85's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    You could come to New Hampshire and get your LPN at NHCTC-Laconia for less than 5 grand! AND that includes books and the boards! I think Gateway is a little cheaper in New Haven and North haven. 30...

    kukukajoo replied to kukukajoo's topic in General Nursing

    kukukajoo replied to kukukajoo's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, it says not to change your diet but it also says not too much leafy green veggies. She hasn't eaten them in years so it isn't wise and since she is having problems keeping her levels high and...

  22. RN back in CT...not sure what to do

    kukukajoo replied to mam01010's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    Apply for per diem positions at several hospitals. Would be possible to work at more than one and maybe you would end up liking them. Money is better but no
