Oh well....Chamberlain, I'm home, honey!!!

you have got to be kidding!!!!!!! i would never stop suing if somebody sent me some crap like that in the mail!!!!! return to sender!!!!!! fried!!!!!

I know....there were no words to express my disbelief at what my ears were telling me she said. So, I press on with Chamberlain's statistics course....it's like a bi-polar class in that my grades get really good and then really bad. Hopefully, they w...

Ok, so I just sent in the appeal regarding the CLEP exams and since I had to do the form anyway, I also threw in the A&P and Microbiology......can't hurt. So I continue to wait.

Got a phone call yesterday from WGU. She was asking that I obtain CLEP results and send to them. She asked me if I was aware of the process. I told her yes in that I had to contact CLEP to have them sent to Excelsior College prior to beginning the AD...

of course, this varies by facility. i haven't had the pleasure of working at one that allows such on the floors. i agree, wocn will be a welcomed change for me. i really could use a minute to gather a second wind.

i did a couple of agency assignment shifts two times per week for a month up until a month ago. (i maintain my current prn position as rn staff nurse elsewhere...been there for 4 years). my day on the job at this ltac facility, i was asked to state m...

Under no circumstances do we do drips on the floor. Those patients are transferred to the units. I do IV fluids and piggybacks, etc. But specialized drips that require critical monitoring means that the patient is not deemed stable enough for the flo...

I've felt this exact same way for 26 years! Good for you to say no to nursing!!! You just saved yourself lots of sleepless nights, foul language, and the right to wear 'punching bag' across your forehead. As for me, I'm pursuing a BSN so that I can c...

After my Propofol drip fiasco last night, I think I could qualify as anesthetist...at least for a little while. Good luck. I think my WGU friend went to a local hospital and spoke to everyone that she needed to in one trip. I think she had to get a t...

congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:lol2::yeah::yeah:

my darn sentiments exactly!!!!!!:mad::mad: the information that i received states certain requirements can be met by an associate or bachelors degree and others state it can be met (a&p, micro, etc.) if you hold those degrees in nursing...which ...

Let he (nurse) who is without sin (error) cast the first stone (pass the first pill).

As you shouldn't! Do you have any specifics that you think may be causing you to be unsuccessful? I studied for about 8 hours total while I was waiting for my ATT. The only thing that relaxed me enough to take the exam is very similar to 2blessed, in...

:DCan't hurt. But ya know, as time goes on in your curriculum, you are bound to have the 'oh yeah....I remember that' moments. Keep the go-to books handy as resources and refresh as necessary. Only you can determine whether or not you need a refreshe...

I would think that it would be accepted there since the actual college is in the state of New York and they 'frequently' receive the Nursing Excellence award. Of course, I've never set foot in New York so I can't say yes with 100% accuracy. Is this a...

Wow! They haven't fixrd that yet? I called the area that handled my testing site and she took care of it for me. (SMH) Some things never change.

Breathe, relax, and get some sleep. Seriously, try to forget about it! You've learned all that you're going to by now....anything else would only serve to confuse you! Good luck!!!:yeah:

Nothing...just want to be done! WGU offers that opportunity within a matter of 3 or 4 months based on your drive and determination; Chamberlain doesn't. I don't have any problems with Chamberlain...just want school to be over as quickly as possible.....

congratulations!!!!!!!:yeah::yeah:another one for excelsior!!!!!:d wooooooo----hoooooo!!!!:yeah::yeah:

My advice to you is to NOT review anymore. You are not going to learn anything new at this late date. There are sooo many medical questions that they could possibly ask and there is no way to pinpoint which 265 they will select for you or which 75 wi...

I just love these little green men....takes the edge off, don't you think?:D:D:D:D:D:D

Wow!! What an interesting topic! I have the fortune of being blessed with both worlds. I once had a patient and her husband who decided that they didn't want me as their nurse. No problem. Patient satisfaction, right? So the Team Leader replaced me, ...

we must be working at the same hospital!!!!! you can say whatever you want as long as you are respectful in your words. next time, put the word 'nurse' in front of the ***** and let it rip!:yeah: [color=#2f4f4f] [color=#2f4f4f]i almost got into a f...

Wow! That's a lot!!! And people thought I was nutz for doing 2 colleges simultaneously while working one job! But if you're devoted, it can be done. My grandfather died; my farce of a husband divorved, and it was Valentines weekend....all on myclinic...
