  1. I know what you mean. But, that's just how it's done at my school. You take your academics with your nursing/clinical classes. I will be taking Micro with my nursing classes (I have an Associate of...
  2. Good PR for Nurses!!!!

    You know, I'm glad I watch these Discovery Health shows. Maybe one day I'll see someone with the same weird symptoms and be able to say, "Aha, it was Colonel Mustard in the attic with the...
  3. What should I do?? Nursing school dilema!

    Here in South MS, my community college has an ADN program. For any degree program other than nursing, it costs about $750 per semester for regular full-time students. However, nursing students have to...
  4. Agencies in MS?

    Haven't tried it yet, but I'm about to look into it.
  5. Pronunciation

    Here in MS, we say CENT at the beginning. But that could just be that we're southern and we say things how we see them. It always irks me, though, when I hear someone say the word "often," and they...
  6. Nursing school vs. nursing shortage

    Yeah, that's how they do it at my school in MS. Just first come. Although, you do have to have passed (made at least a C in) Eng I, A&P I, Psych I, and passed the Nursing Entrance Test (tests...
  7. Hi, I live in Ocean Springs on the MS Gulf Coast and will be starting the RN nursing program this Fall (2006) at the Jackson County Campus. I was just wondering if anyone has been through their...
  8. Second Assc Degree?

    That's super for you! I'm glad someone is getting aid. I have, unfortunately, been down every possible road. Believe me when I say I've tried hard; I'm in MS, and there is so much aid now for...
  9. Second Assc Degree?

    Don't do it!!! I have an AA from previously going toward a teaching degree (decided to change majors a little late in the game.) Anyway, you cannot receive federal financial aid for another...
  10. Hospital scholarships?

    Singing River Hospital System on the Gulf
  11. Ever been accused of being an "overcompensator"?

    Drop him. He has no respect and he's jealous of your accomplishements. And if his girlfriend has a brain in her head she'll drop him, too. Once a cheater = always a cheater. As for the people who...
  12. Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy

    I read that book about five years ago. A very good read. It'll make you cry like never before when you learn what happened to this child. Definitely pick it up if you want a good example of this...
  13. Profession: Defined

    This is actually quite funny. I was in school to be a teacher for four years before switching to nursing. In the last semesters, we were informed of how to judge whether or not something is...
  14. Quick results...how much longer!!!!

    congratulations!!!!!!
  15. sorry, i have to vent, I am losing my MIND!!!

    Was in the same boat myself not even a year ago. Except my husband was 24, and he would gamble. Not very much, just $100-$400 every now and then. Compared to some people gambling away thousands, I...
  16. Womens interest in male nurses

    Anyone who thinks nursing isn't manly should spend a day cleaning up some the things nurses do. I would totally date a guy who was a nurse because I know that it takes a special person to be able to...
  17. NAI descent: Roll Call

    I tried to find a picture quickly, but I couldn't. You're on your
  18. NAI descent: Roll Call

    In case you wanted to know, what he was looking for is called "shovel teeth." Your incisors will tend to be shovel like in appearance, meaning they will kind of dip in from the back. Root |||||||...
  19. Are You Addicted To....

    Wow! I'm glad someone mentioned this channel. I was totally oblivious to it. However, I'm not getting any sound on the channel. Or the ones around it for that matter. I have the digital-plus...
  20. I am entering nursing school this fall, and I want to have a bit of knowledge prior to entering. I have absolutely no medical background, so everything is completely new (I was an education major)....
  21. Nurses changing careers...

    Hey, I went for four years into teaching school before I decided to switch to nursing, so I know a little something. I'm in Mississippi, though, so I don't know how your state's laws are. First, I'd...
  22. male nurses in OB

    I don't mind men as nurses. I think that having all perspectives in your health care unit is a plus. Of course, patients should be able to refuse a nurse, whether the nurse is male or female. I...
  23. What would you do?????

    I called to check on my status only one week after I turned in my application, and they told me that I got accepted. I just called our campus's ADN secretary, and she looked it up for me. Who cares...
  24. my clinical experience (sorry so long)

    That's super, and I am so happy for you. It's good to hear someone who is having a good clinical experience. I read so many nightmare stories on these boards about horrible instructors and mean...
  25. Hey, I'm going into nursing school this Fall, but I want to have some kind of practical experience with patients beforehand if possible. I have no previous medical background, though. Most of my...
