hi guys...i'm new here! i've just started my pre-requisets at portland community college and am looking to transfer to ohsu...in a while. people have told me about the providence scholarship, but one of the sites i found said it was only available to...

Hi! I'm a pre-nursing student right now...and just wanted to hear from nurses who are also massage therapists. I am seriously considering going to massage school, maybe in the next few years or something...not sure when. But anyway...are you guys sat...

Kim, that makes since to me, and just like you--I wonder why that is. My mom's friend (female) is an OB nurse here. When we were in the car the other day, my stepdad asked me if that was something I would consider doing. I told them how I had read th...

I just started A&P 1 this week, and my second class is Wednesday. My instructor seems really cool, and everyone that I talked to speaks very highly of him. The class and lab are going to be a lot of work, and I knew that before, from the horror s...

Yes, I'm rather intrigued by this head covering too! Please share...:)

Yikes! What does that person have that caused the skin on their leg to do that?

Is 11a-11p a common shift 'round these parts?

I just finished today! This term was hard...I should not have taken 5 credits of math and 5 credits of bio at the same time. But it's over now, and I survived...grades get posted Monday. I want to know now, but chances are after a few days, I'll for...

Hello, ladies and gentlemen. This term, I took my first college-level biology course ever, which my advisor said would make A & P make more sense. The tests are killing me...I'm hovering between a C and D. She said if I get at least a C on the f...

Maybe try changing the orientation (landscape/portrait) of the slide. That would make the boxes wider.

The page says the test cost $8.95...?

Cathie - I've just been marking key points off the study guide...after seeing how many people have been doing it, and said it was very helpful to them. It's been helpful, because when I go to skim through the chapter to take notes, I know where every...

Thanks for the excelent advice you guys have offered thus far! I totally agree about breaking study sessions up into shorter things. I usually always rewrite my notes, or the instructors notes which she gives us. Someone also mentioned reading the en...

Okay, it's time for me to start writting and highlighting in my book. It seems that's what the smart people do. I'm just still stuck in the highschool mindset of you write in the book, you die. But it is *my* book...therefore I can write in them! So...

I'm not an OHSU student (yet), but it's my school of choice, and I take Trimet to to Pill Hill quite frequently. It doesn't take very long...the bus passes right by the SON, and it probably far better than parking. Also, the tram will be running soon...

I'm not yet a nurse, but this is a cool site, which I've seen people recomend. ICU FAQs

I never knew they were originally a French organization! That's interesting. A long while ago, I read some of the stories on their site. Wow! The stuff they do is pretty cool! It would be really neat to talk to someone who's been on one of the trips!

In the winter, I'm taking Med Terminology, Statistics (Fun?), and a sociology class pertaining to health and aging. It looked cool from the description.

My grandma was placed in a nursing home a whie ago, I usually go with my grandpa to see her, and we try to go about once a week. In the last few months, though, between getting set up to start classes, and now classes starting, I hadn't been able to ...

Thanks for pointing out all the variables I didn't think of yesterday, guys. I guess that just goes to show that you should never make judgements about people's situations, since you never know the whole story. :)

I'm not sure if this lady is her roomate or not, but I see her in the hall near my grandma often, since they both spend a lot of time outside their rooms. To me, this woman seemed to be of sound-mind, but I am not sure. It's hard to tell with some pe...

It sounds exciting! But as others have mentioned, this is only a choice that you and your husband can make together. :)

I agree. Personally, I don't think educators get enough thanks for the hard work they do. I also know how it makes me feel when people give me a compliment, or a kind word, or thanks for a job well done. I try to make people feel the same way, whenev...

Here is a specific thread about IHS, as well as a link to the Native American Indian (patient) Nursing Forum. I hope this information is helpul to you. Although I'm only a pre-nursing student, I've read a lot about people's experience with IHS, and t...

I am also doing my pre-reqs at PCC, and enjoying it a lot. I start Tuesday. :)
