    FNP Program?

    BBFRN replied to ozark's topic in Online Distance Learning

    FYI: you probably could've started the application process before you graduated. Most schools will wait for your final post-graduate transcripts, if your grades are good enough. Go here:...

    husbands that won't help

    BBFRN replied to tolerantgirl's topic in General Nursing

    To validate the OP's feelings: I would be stressed out too, if my husband didn't help out around the house. Make him get up off his butt and help clean. You're not his mother. And wait until you...

    BBFRN replied to dianacs's topic in Post Graduate Students

    dianacs- Check to see if your school has a user agreement with Endnote. Mine does, and I just downloaded it for free from my schools IT page (version X2). Another reason why I love Marachne.

    BBFRN replied to dianacs's topic in Post Graduate Students

    OMG- I have done all of the above (except linking my .pdfs through Endnote yet. Was advised to do so, though). I even bought a big 4 drawer file cabinet for that very purpose. I am so glad I'm not...

    TB Screening

    BBFRN replied to zenman's topic in School

    I believe it's up to each county, as to what their requirements are. My county's public school system stopped requiring Tb screening in 1998, but selective screening may be done at the direction of...

    Cardiac Nursing Protocols/Research

    BBFRN replied to Adenium's topic in CCU, Coronary, Cardiac

    I wholeheartedly agree with this. Post-cardiac surgery patients do learn some stuff in cardiac rehab, but not enough in the way of long-term lifestyle changes. They definitely don't learn enough...

    LPN-RN bridge program that only requires 3 Nur Classes?

    BBFRN replied to bobs201's topic in LPN to RN

    DMB- check out the distance ed forum. There is a wealth of info there. I got my ASN there, and it is a great, but intensive program. You'll want to call your BON directly to see if they accept...

    BBFRN replied to Chica17's topic in General Nursing

    Oh, Gabriella- that's what nursing school is for. You will never have to deal with an emergency situation by yourself as a nurse. And when you do have to deal with an emergency, you will have the...

    Gabriella- you might have a better chance of working in a physician's office if you are a QMA or LPN in this area. They're cheaper than

    LPN-RN bridge program that only requires 3 Nur Classes?

    BBFRN replied to bobs201's topic in LPN to RN

    3 courses doesn't sound right. I would check out your local BON website (or email someone there) to see if that program is accepted by them. If you look on the website, most BONs list the schools...

    Do Galen credits transfer?! October

    BBFRN replied to Chica17's topic in General Nursing

    It depends on what you want to do as a nurse. You can be a RN with either an ASN or BSN. There are also diploma RNs, but we don't have those programs in our area any more. I wish we did- all the...

    Starting at Galen...tuition question

    BBFRN replied to gabriella86's topic in General Nursing

    I recommend Cardinal Uniform. They have locations all over town, and you get a 20% discount there for being a Galen student, I believe. I would stay away from the see-through whites, and the...
