  1. U.S. Nursing Salary CHANGES?!

    GilbertDaddy replied to Future-nurse's topic in General Nursing

    Gotta agree here and while I hate to fan the flames.. I thought we put to rest any issues with Hillary a page or two ago?? I thought we were back on the general topic on the upcoming election and it's...

  2. Hey guys....How do you all support yourselves?

    GilbertDaddy replied to Brian 77's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I'm really hoping I can work into some sort of agreement like this. I've got a great job but business hours require me to be here somewhere from 7-10am to 4-7pm. The job can be done remotely and by...

  3. U.S. Nursing Salary CHANGES?!

    GilbertDaddy replied to Future-nurse's topic in General Nursing

    Yeah, everyone loses in those cases. To pretty much put to rest that Hillary quote, here's some more discussion on it at snopes.com. Just browsing it looked like there was some good discussion there....

  4. U.S. Nursing Salary CHANGES?!

    GilbertDaddy replied to Future-nurse's topic in General Nursing

    As far as how universal healthcare will affect nurse pay - I personally really like Dr. Ron Paul's thoughts: I share a difference of opinions with Ron Paul on some issues, but on the healthcare...

  5. Did anyone here get accepted after graduating from a "non traditional" school?

    GilbertDaddy replied to GilbertDaddy's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Pardon my ignorance.. still learning all the acronyms :)

  6. Pre-reqs change MCC

    GilbertDaddy replied to Glina's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I benefit from the changes, but still agree. Ultimately I think the best way of doing things was having provisional acceptance spots so folks like me who could put up a great case for earlier...

  7. Ethel Bauer School of Nursing Phoenix

    GilbertDaddy replied to rcidro's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Thanks! Please, if you could find out more, PM me or something - I'd love to look at a few hybrid programs. With BSN schools, can I still obtain my RN after 2 years or do I have to complete the entire...

  8. A "dating female students in your class" post

    GilbertDaddy replied to Jedi of Zen's topic in Male Nursing Students

    There's a good quote about pooping where you eat. Sometimes it's definitely better to keep the two separate for good reason :) Just because you CAN poop on your dinner plate, doesn't mean it's...

  9. Did anyone here get accepted after graduating from a "non traditional" school?

    GilbertDaddy replied to GilbertDaddy's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Thanks, you're right. I'm hoping that when the school here calls me back that I can ask a few of those questions. It stinks we only have one CRNA school in Arizona.. I'd love to have a couple more...

  10. A "dating female students in your class" post

    GilbertDaddy replied to Jedi of Zen's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Haha that made my day :trout: Now that I think about it, my friend who's gay is cattier than any of the women I know.. Oh well lol, I guess I'll just tough it out

  11. Ethel Bauer Schedule?

    GilbertDaddy replied to azmistie's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I have a son (daughter's in school) and if I could take him here, that would be 700 or so less in bills each month. But I haven't heard great things about them.. They're cheaper than Apollo, but the...

  12. Ethel Bauer School of Nursing Phoenix

    GilbertDaddy replied to rcidro's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Agreed, although in their defense it seems to be going up at least. It was 50% or 03-07, and now 84.6% for 07-07: I imagine many of those schools suffer from ill-prepared students going in and...

  13. "Universal" Health Care + CRNA=??

    GilbertDaddy replied to x_coastie's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Not to mention the economy as a whole - especially here in the SouthWest where we're going through a major housing bubble and/or recession. Oh and Merry Christmas! Personally I really like Ron Paul...

  14. Survey: Would you pay $43,000 to a College to become an RN in 22 months?

    GilbertDaddy replied to parkingmanager's topic in Nevada Nursing

    No offense, but at only 1 post to your name and your first post sounding like an ad, this seems like spam... Secondly, there are multiple threads regarding that college to be definitely sub-par. This...

  15. Pre-reqs change MCC

    GilbertDaddy replied to Glina's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Hmm, I thought I had the link .. ah just logged into the work PC and found it - this girl grabbed notes from her A&P classes - I'm going to use these a lot when I get close to taking mine :)...

  16. A "dating female students in your class" post

    GilbertDaddy replied to Jedi of Zen's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Thanks! :) I don't plan to. It's hard enough finding a way to still work full time, take care of the kids by myself, AND fit in nursing studies. The sad truth is a man in my situation already...

  17. A "dating female students in your class" post

    GilbertDaddy replied to Jedi of Zen's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Jeeez. See that's the other part.. there's no saying either, that the guy won't reap some of that suffering. I don't have the time nor money to afford slashed tires, broken windows, vandalism, etc....

  18. A "dating female students in your class" post

    GilbertDaddy replied to Jedi of Zen's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Wow, that sounds crazy! I like my "only man on a beach full of women" metaphor even better now :) You get started with one of those girls and it's like dominos.. I imagine the stress on the female...

  19. Ethel Bauer School of Nursing Phoenix

    GilbertDaddy replied to rcidro's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Wow thanks!! That confirms my decision on that one lol. I understand colleges with no wait like Apollo and others may be plagued with students who realistically aren't ready for the workload...

  20. Ethel Bauer School of Nursing Phoenix

    GilbertDaddy replied to rcidro's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'm also interested in alternative programs due to my schedule, but EBSN seems to be stuck with a 41% pass rate right now according to:...

  21. apollo college

    GilbertDaddy replied to ohmeowzer RN's topic in Nevada Nursing

    They're opening in AZ as well. The nursing program is new (before it was just an LPN program) and interesting since most schools are full up as soon as they open spots. Makes me wonder though, what...

  22. Apollo College?

    GilbertDaddy replied to jess1998's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Jess, did you end up going? Also, Unravel: How is UoP viewed as a nursing university? I know on the business end (buddy of mine works there and has an MBA from there), they are the "red headed...

  23. Pre-reqs change MCC

    GilbertDaddy replied to Glina's topic in Arizona Nursing

    You can say that again :) I'm a procrastinator but I'm also aware of what I'm up against in my situation. There will be lots of people I'm sure who will feel they can finish a couple semesters,...

  24. Did anyone here get accepted after graduating from a "non traditional" school?

    GilbertDaddy replied to GilbertDaddy's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Hmm, that's my concern. I imagine with a good shift setup, I could probably even attend university for my BSN. While I'm doing that, I plan to stay in an CC unit so I'll have a couple years of...

  25. Rio Salado Science Lab courses not transferring to other Comm. Colleges?

    GilbertDaddy replied to GilbertDaddy's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Hopefully so, I'm planning on Rio -> local maricopa comm. college -> ASU. I'll have to double check when advisement offices re-open on
