He had been in the hospital since Monday. He doesn't appear to be to sick. I talked and joked with him today. I did a physical assessment today and he did not complain. The only way I know he is sick is because his abd is tender and he has pain t...

I just got into the adn program at WCJC. They look at your overall science classes gpa and how many non-nursing classes you have completed. Only 30 slots per cycle.

I am also in the WCJC adn program and went to orientation yesterday. I am a little nervous about starting but I think it is like this for everyone. Anything started new is an exciting but scary process. I may have already talked to you face-to-fac...
