I don't have the health problems you have but I do have a friend who has fibromyalgia and some days she won't even get out of bed she hurts so bad. I cannot imagine waking up and feeling that much pain, so I sympathize with you immensely. Have you ev...

is anyone here attending any of the tennessee technology centers? i'm especially interested in the livingston/red boiling springs school. anyone go there or know anything about it? thanks for any info.

That's pretty much how it was when I applied last year and the year b4- they had so many applicants and only a few openings. I didn't get in two years in a row, and like someone who said they were wondering how they chose the applicants, I was wonder...

happy new years everyone! can anyone tell me of a website where i can look up some cpt codes for free? i have to turn this assignment in tomorrow and i can't find a website that doesn't charge. any suggestions? thanks for any info!

I took your advice and called some more docs offices, finally got the 5th one to commit to hold it for me til tomorrow when I get by there to pick it up, yay! Also...one of my classmates just called and said they came across this site but I haven't c...

[color="blue"thank you for your reply....i went to bed last night and didn't have time to check my email this morning, so just got to school early to borrow one of their books and finished up. i do need a book at home for practice, and our instructo...

i was looking into online nursing schools at one time, and just wanted to give you the heads up and warning......while some programs do have the prereq's online and you have to actually go for the clinicals, i understand those are legit. in my search...

i would like to know if anyone has any info/opinions on this program also. i've been checking into the tsu program that has been extended to vol state community college. anyone know anything about this program or if it's difficult to get into?

i agree about there being a huge demand for rn's here in tn. i am currently taking a ma program because i got tired of sitting around waiting to get into an lpn program, but in searching for job listings on the internet and in the papers, haven't fou...

i'm not a nurse, just a student...but if it's something that concerns you i would definitely make an appt at my ob or local health dept or something.....at least they could tell you if it was something to worry about. when i spotted they told me it w...

i really wasnt sure where to post this, it's not really related to anything medically, but thought others of teenagers may find it a little humorous as i did when i came across it: the kiss of death i wipe my brow as i prepa...

[color=dimgray]wow.....he can't put the two words together and figure out what they really mean? nurse..assist....means assist the nurse with whatever dingbat! we had a fellow cna who wore a scrub jacket that said nurse and i heard some of the nurses...

[color=darkslategray]i had a choice of "ma" or medical office specialist". i chose ma because i wanted to do more directly with people. in my ma program the outline is as follows: keyboarding 1 & 2- medical terminology 1 & 2- medical office p...

i love this thread....got chills on some of them! although i've always been a huge fan of the paranormal, never believed in ghosts or apparitions until my husband and daddy of my 14 month old passed away.......she'd start crying at night the week he ...

i dont think i was supposed to be laughing....sorry. i'm not yet a nurse, only a cna enrolled in ma program, but i worked in ltc a long time. i didn't really encounter exactly what you're talking about, this is a little different. i've seen this happ...

i am currently enrolled in a medical assistant program, and i just wish it were among the fastest growing here in tenn, but it doesn't seem to be. i check the papers and websites weekly mainly comparing job offerings, locations, and salaries to get a...

can anyone tell me if a rma can challenge the board for lpn? someone had told me they heard after being certified for one year you could challenge the board........anyone have any info on this? thanks-

hi there- although i'm not a nurse (cna and ma student) i had the same question....you may want to try the college network, excelsior, or the university of phoenix online, i did a yahoo search and came up with those when i was checking into it. i rea...

wow......yes the sarcasm was a bit much......sorry if my question makes me sound vapid to some of you who do have more knowledge about the medical field and titles. i do believe that this is the first time ive felt airheaded on this site....but it wo...

thanks so much for the replies. i enrolled in this medical assistant program because i thought it would help me get into an lpn or rn school if i did really well in it, but talking to vol state and the tenn tech center they said that working as a cn...

i was watching an old episode of er the other day, then grey's anatomy the other night and wondered if nurses ever watch those shows and just want to scream out something, like a diagnosis if they figure it out first, or if something is so fake or un...

i guess since i'm not a nurse yet i really dont' know what to look for....right or wrong diagnosises, comments about nurses. i think the main reason grey's anatomy is my favorite is the relationship and romance parts of the show.....house? never seen...

I begin the MA program at Nashville college November 2nd, and would like to hear a few opinions about the best route to go afterwards from some who have been there or who have checked into it also. I would like to go for the year LPN program after th...

You know what, I'm going to have to reread that........because what you're saying makes so much more sense. I have heard of that but I didn't perceive it that way. I bet I read it wrong. Going to reread now....thank you......
