    RedHeadRN2b posted a topic in General Nursing

  2. lpn citificate

    RedHeadRN2b replied to ashytashy's topic in General Nursing

    El Centro College in Dallas, TX does not have a wait list. That does NOT mean the entrance to the LVN/LPN program isn't competitive, because it is. When I say they don't have a waiting list I mean...

    RedHeadRN2b replied to bellatx06's topic in General Nursing

    The Dallas County Community College District offers A&P online and I've thought about taking it. HOWEVER, one thing that gives me pause is that I'd be missing out on the feedback from my fellow...

  8. Thank you's - memorable ones you've received?

    RedHeadRN2b replied to Liddle Noodnik's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Ok, I just have to share even though my most memorable "thank you" didn't have anything to do directly with the medical field. Who could forget the bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Building on April...

  9. what nursing shoes r best?

    RedHeadRN2b replied to crzmomof3boys's topic in General Nursing

    I have a couple of (what I think are) bone spurs on the heel and ball of my foot. Those little boogers wear a hole straight through padding faster than a speeding bullet and they make wearing the...

  10. Now I'm not so sure

    RedHeadRN2b replied to fifi2323's topic in General Nursing

  14. My 16-year-old wants a navel piercing

    RedHeadRN2b replied to Zee_RN's topic in General Nursing

    I can vouch for this one. I had my navel pierced about 3 years ago and no matter what I did it never seemed to heal - and I was FANATICAL about care and sanitary measures. It kept leaking a whitish...

  15. Accelerated BSN - Do employers really care where you went?

    RedHeadRN2b replied to kittypepper028's topic in General Nursing

    The University of Phoenix has a BSN course that you can take online. This might work for you - not sure about what it costs though....

  16. School project - PLEASE HELP!!

    RedHeadRN2b replied to RedHeadRN2b's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I'm a little afraid of that, but am hoping that maybe there are a few retired nurses browsing the boards, or like the previous poster would know someone that would be willing to do

    RedHeadRN2b replied to RedHeadRN2b's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks for clarifying - I am NOT (I repeat NOT) trying to beat the proverbial dead "is one better than the other" horse. The issue is not whether or not to get a BSN, I just want opinions on the...
