  1. ~human anatomy

    I agree with Megsd. I think if you just keep reading over and over your not learning your just reading. For me to really get something I have to eventually put the notes down and start reciting it from memory.
  2. Anybody else going insane

    The lectue and lab test are coming up this week for the endocrine system. Anybody else slowly being driven crazy by this?
  3. Who's waiting on acceptance letters?

    End of May at the soonest for an August start. I think I'm going to think positive and start my immunizations early.
  4. Anybody else going insane

    I appreciate the links, I've been using the Hole's anatomy website since that's we're using. The practice tests have come in handy for all the chapters so far. I guess I should've posted this on the pre nursing forum. I just wanted to whine to someon...
  5. I guess I'm used to some other forums where we will go at each other with a hammer while debating various ideas. I guess I should resign myself to the fact that very few people on here want to do this. I think some people use the ER as their first st...
  6. You do have some valid points. For example there was a percentage of money that was spent that my, our, children will benefit from. Highways being one example. But IMO that the vast majority of it was spent to maintain the previous generations standa...
  7. A previous poster hit the nail on the head. The bank is empty, all the money that's supposed to be in it is gone. We have an entire generation, and even part of another one that spent that money. The spent it on everything but what it was it was supp...
  8. You're Going to Practice on ME?!?!

    I never had a fear of needles until one day...when I gave blood to the RC and I watched them put the needle in. It looked like I could park my truck up inside of it. I wont say that I'm afraid of them, but I don't get back as often as I used too.
  9. Has anybody else officially applied for the program?

    Yep, my app is complete except for one pre req class I'm currently in. I have until May 15th (after the end of semester) for that grade to be on my transcript. After that is the the wait for the letter. Or maybe I should say "The Letter" since so man...
  10. Damage control? Or just more damage?

    Let me start out by saying that I've been told and seen the following.. It takes a strong committed marriage to survive both or either party swinging outside of the marriage. I have seen this cause many problems and even destroy a marriage. I also pe...
  11. Refusal for Blood Draw

    The standard is unreasonable search and seizure. We have a court system that decides if a search is reasonable based upon specific evidence. We should not ignore this based upon expediancy. I've never been a fan of this 'nothing to hide' approach to...
  12. OT: and not getting paid?

    That's how I read it too, if you accept a salaried position, ie you get paid for 40 if your work 30 or 50, in any type of work you are not eligible for overtime. If your paid hourly and only get paid for 20 hours if worked 20 hours then your eligible...
  13. OT: and not getting paid?

    Only paperwork I would fill out would be down at the courthouse for all the back time I didn't get paid. If the hospitol has a problem with that they need to take it up with congress.
  14. First day of class in 9 Hours!!

    Go to sleep, a shot of whiskey will help
  15. Refusal for Blood Draw

    Even if they did show up with a warrent for a blood draw you still wouldn't have any obligation to do it. The burden would be upon the state to supply the where and how not upon you to do it for them.
  16. Frustration with "the plan"

    I have courses from way back in the day also. 1987 or so. My college doesn't know anything about them and never will.
  17. Is there REALLY a nursing shortage?

    Thank you blue hair. That's the most honest assesment of any work enviroment in any field that I've seen in awhile.
  18. Massage Therapy Training In Broward County

    A local CC is going to be your cheapest bet. Don't fall for the private schools sales pitch on how much better your training will be etc. It's not worth the added costs. As a current MT my advice to you would be to not do it. For several reasons. In...
  19. Make Money For Nursing School

    From what I have found the Dept of Health and the BON for Mississippi websites have virtually no information about CNA. I can't even find the minimum number of hours needed for the certification. If you want to be CNA you have a few choices. You can...
  20. Honest question needs honest anwser..

    I understand your position. I don't agree with it but I do understand it. I was addressing a broader picture of the war on drugs. IMO that history has proven that it is unwinnable. By any logical interpretation blatently unconstitutional in so many w...
  21. Honest question needs honest anwser..

    He has a valid point. If someone goes out on New years and has a few drinks/smoke does that make them impaired for next Fridays shift? For any kind of work? If the answer is yes then I will support it right after we start requiring the same standards...
  22. CNA vrs Orderlies

    I went and talked to some nursing homes and the two local hospitals today. One nursing home offers in house CNA training and said they had just finished a class and probably wouldn't have another one for a few months. I did get to talk to the ADON ...
  23. What's the best way to become a CNA?

    I'm looking into this too as a way to learn if this is really for me before I sink 2 years into school for it. Our local CC offers a 16 hour one semester course on it but I can't figure several things about it. First, how does one CC graduate enough ...
  24. What's the weirdest baby name?

    I had a friend who named their son Zachiriah Exavier ... and yes that is the correct spelling. Knew another guy that was kinda mental, tone deaf and wore a hearing aid (not sure what the specific medical condition is called ) but he spoke tonelessl...
  25. Getting ahead or where do most people fail

    Merry Christmas
