You must get at least 90% on the math test. The first attempt is your grade. You're given three attempts to pass and kicked out of the program if you don't pass on the third try. Initial test is given in class. Retakes are done on your own time in th...

I am a current first year student. Coursework is reasonable. I spend 15 hours per week preparing for classes. I also work full-time. I did well my first semester and anticipate doing well during the rest of the program. The HESI entrance exam was not...

My mom had a subarachnoid hemorrhage a few years ago. She didn't have a headache at all. Was conscious one moment, out the next. Detachable coiling after the bleed stopped things from getting worse in her case. It was a long hospital stay, but lu...

I bought an Invicta Specialty 1038 around $50. Has military, second hand, nylon strap, is water resistant, white face.

You don't have to be religious to go to Bethel. Bethel will expose you to different worldviews, not indoctrinate you into its baptist heritage. I didn't go to Bethel, but did go to another private religious school in MN. Must say I am glad I had t...

If you were accepted into NHCC's nursing program, would you mind sharing what grades you got for AP1, AP2 and micro? I, as well as many other of my classmates, are curious. We all have different ideas of what a competitive candidate is when it comes...

We use Great Team Cards as a team building tool. The cards are used to thank fellow coworkers for going above and beyond their normal duties and helping each other out. During our monthly meetings a few cards that originate from our department are ...

If you are talking about Biol 1001 at NHCC, then chemistry is recommended, but not required. Pretty sure there isn't a lot of chemistry knowledge needed for a basic biology class such as this.

Prune juice contains a lot of potassium, which could be problematic considering the patient is experiencing renal failure.

Employees greater than or equal to 0.50 FTE are eligible for a maximum benefit of $2,000 for undergraduate and graduate programs.

Phantoms in the Brain by V.S. Ramachandran has a chapter or two on phantom limb pain. It's an interesting book.

I'm not a nurse, but work in a hospital so I hope that this is relevant enough to warrant your responses. I work in the evening in a nutrition department at a hospital as a non-exempt union employee. One of my assignments is to work in the dishroom....

Have you looked into HealthEast Care System? St. Joseph's Hospital (downtown St. Paul) has been mentioned, but have you thought about St. John's Hosptial (Maplewood), Woodwinds Health Campus (Woodbury) or even Bethesda Hospital (St. Paul). All these ...

The hospital I work at uses an okay method. One catering associate (dietary staff) is assigned to each unit. That associate prepares, delivers and picks up the trays as well as takes meal orders for about 20 to 25 patients. Meals are ordered imm...

In my opinon, United is in a safer location than Abbott is. Both are great hospitals, though. Abbott is located in the Phillips neighborhood, which has been known for its crime in the past. See this website for more information about the area. Alli...

The first one.

Just learned about this in psychopharmacology... The symptoms of itching and feeling as if insects are crawling under the skin is called formication syndrome. It is commonly seen with cocaine and amphetamine use.

$110,000. Way too much for a biology degree.

I've got some issues at work regarding overtime and I'd like to know what you think about it. My union contract states, "...Further, even though the total hours worked during a week may not exceed forty (40) an employee working in excess of the emp...

Wow, I really appreciate all the responses. I've contacted my union representative, who has met with management, but they didn't come to an agreement as to if this article in the contract applies to employees with four hour shifts. It's most likely g...

I will dig further into the contract to see if a work day is defined, but I'm pretty sure it isn't. There are a few gray areas in the contract that can be interpreted different ways, this being one of them. Just needed some other points of view befor...

It does matter what a doctor wears. According to this article in the November 2005 American Journal of Medicine, patients prefer a professionally dressed doctor in a white coat. I'd have to agree.

On an 1800 calorie consistent carbohydrate diet at my workplace, a patient would get: 4 Carbs for breakfast 4 Carbs for lunch 4 Carbs for dinner 2 Carbs for HS (where 1 Carb = 15 grams carbohydrates)

I'm not a nurse, but one day hope to be. I work at hospital as a support staff member and have been for several months. My job requires me to rotate to different positions within the department. Tonight I had a position that I'm having a hard time wi...
