  3. New to Board and Deaconess

    Mrs.Yost replied to Amy P's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Just be patient as you are looking for a clinical site. You will probably face some rejection before you finally find the hospital that will work with you. Good

  4. New to Board and Deaconess

    Mrs.Yost replied to Amy P's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I'm pretty sure that this is the correct Chemistry. You might want to call to make sure (let me know what you find out). Most of the Chems are 5 credit hours, I think there may be one that's 4 but...

  9. Illinois LPN's

    Mrs.Yost replied to dvapwr's topic in General Nursing

  11. Preconceptual Counseling

    Mrs.Yost replied to colleen10's topic in Ob/Gyn
