  1. Just a simple request :)

    GilbertDaddy replied to GilbertDaddy's topic in General Nursing

    hah, sounds like me with

  2. Just a simple request :)

    GilbertDaddy replied to GilbertDaddy's topic in General Nursing

    Personally, I don't really care about localities, it's just when folks post something vague like "where I live..." in response to a thread and never specify, well... WHERE they live (work, went to...

  3. Rio Salado Community College

    GilbertDaddy replied to spudbunny's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Keli - Yes please! I'm dying to get some experience because I'll work 12 hour shifts any day as opposed to spreading it out over 5 days would allow me to better focus on school. Not to mention I'd...

  4. Just a simple request :)

    GilbertDaddy replied to GilbertDaddy's topic in General Nursing

    True, but it at least helps provide a baseline of sorts :) That said though, is there a way to delete this message? I think the problem is solved if I just stop being lazy and start

  5. Rio Salado Community College

    GilbertDaddy replied to spudbunny's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I can empathize.. Working full time as well, I need my salary to support my family but at the same time am trying to dedicate myself fully to my new career path. That's wonderful that so many slots...

  6. Rio Salado Community College

    GilbertDaddy replied to spudbunny's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I have friend who has her name at a few schools, I believe that's kind of common

  7. Just a simple request :)

    GilbertDaddy replied to GilbertDaddy's topic in General Nursing

    That'd be nice :) I just wish the salary threads could be moved that way, it's so frustrating trying to get value from the posts where there is so much said, but no reference to the state to compare...

  8. Rio Salado Community College

    GilbertDaddy replied to spudbunny's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I wouldn't doubt it. Signing up for my pre-reqs, I was able to get in a week before the class started! If that's any indication, it seems that the extra work that needs to be taken, as opposed to...

  9. starting a new career at phoenix arizona

    GilbertDaddy replied to egroeg_kyut's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Hah! You notice that too eh? Keli is 100% right on Anthem. There have been a few articles in the paper saying that with all of the growth out there and lack of roads/freeways that folks are fed up...

  10. Wanted to share my wonderful moment

    GilbertDaddy replied to AmyB's topic in General Nursing

    Wow, what an awesome story!! This is the kind of stuff that makes me so excited to become a nurse :) Having dealt with businesses ever since I started working, the first thing in my mind was "oh my...

  11. starting a new career at phoenix arizona

    GilbertDaddy replied to egroeg_kyut's topic in Arizona Nursing

    It's an extreme example for sure, but that was at Chandler Place on McQueen and Warner. We moved about 10 miles south/east and for 150/month more we got 2 more bedrooms, and over a thousand square...

  12. Rio Salado Community College

    GilbertDaddy replied to spudbunny's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I agree as well. When I was 18 and in college, I wasn't thinking about class so much as I was about what I'd be doing AFTER class. Some of my classmates often held class up with questions that were...

  13. starting a new career at phoenix arizona

    GilbertDaddy replied to egroeg_kyut's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I believe it's going to be Gilbert Mercy Hospital? Beyond that, I'm not entirely sure other than that Chandler Regional is handling most of the HR for now (last I heard). I have 2 lil ones as well...

  14. Rio Salado Community College

    GilbertDaddy replied to spudbunny's topic in Arizona Nursing

    When doing my math, it was based from lesson plans off an interactive CD. The benefit was that at times when you just didn't "get it", you could always just continue to go over the plan again in...

  15. starting a new career at phoenix arizona

    GilbertDaddy replied to egroeg_kyut's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Also, I'd like to point out once more that you should look into rental homes rather than apartments. Having lived in apartments all over the mesa area where I grew up, it was kind of dissapointing...

  16. starting a new career at phoenix arizona

    GilbertDaddy replied to egroeg_kyut's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Hello! Also another guy here going to school, currently just working on pre-reqs :) While the home prices have climbed, they'll be coming back down or at least adjusting a little. More new home...

  17. LPN Moving to Arizona, questions...

    GilbertDaddy replied to debinius's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Hello! I've spoke with a few folks about this who were thinking of moving and I'd highly advise either the east or west valley. You're 30-45 minutes from central Phoenix, there are TONS of brand new,...

  18. Rio Salado Community College

    GilbertDaddy replied to spudbunny's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Hmm, I could have SWORN I saw some recently, either on the board site, or elsewhere - have you tried googling for it? If I recall correctly, most schools in AZ placed very high which was very...

  19. Best way to job hunt?

    GilbertDaddy replied to PhoenixGirl's topic in Arizona Nursing

    When I was in real estate, I was getting certified for new homes (Hyland Bay Training) and one of the things I remember is that the industry is not only a "good ol boy" network in most cases, but that...

  20. Salary question??

    GilbertDaddy replied to joe134's topic in General Nursing

    Pfft, no worries :) I'm just a student here to learn from the ACTUAL nurses. I just find the opinions on this matter specifically to be very interesting. As an IT professional, we run this same...

  21. Salary question??

    GilbertDaddy replied to joe134's topic in General Nursing

    You make a valid point but I think it might be lost in what seems like an emotional response. Let me elaborate (thanks for bringing up that first point): I often hear CRNA's speak proudly of their...

  22. Arizona RNs! Are you getting this type of pay??

    GilbertDaddy posted a topic in Arizona Nursing

    Wow, I got curious (still in school) about what was out there right now for RNs and a 30 second search got this from careerbuilder.com:...

  23. Mercy Gilbert Medical Center

    GilbertDaddy replied to RN2B07's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Awesome! I'm also doing my pre-reqs through Rio and on val vista and queen creek here. Had to start with BIO 156, but hopefully I can get to the meat of things soon enough to apply there. How...

  24. Arizona RNs! Are you getting this type of pay??

    GilbertDaddy replied to GilbertDaddy's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Yeah I figured something like that. I'm in a unique position now where my income makes the switch from IT to nursing a little difficult. Those sorts of pay definitely become alluring, although I do...

  25. Arizona RNs! Are you getting this type of pay??

    GilbertDaddy replied to GilbertDaddy's topic in Arizona Nursing

    By the way, there were MANY more jobs (20 pages), but these results only show the jobs that are posting a pay
