  1. The College Network-collecting sales tax

    chaxanmom replied to CSLee3's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Stop payment on the check through your bank. I would NOT trust them to not use it. No

  2. Indiana State University BSN students

    chaxanmom replied to EricJRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I have no idea. Sorry. If they won't accept your LPN credits than how can you do the LPN-BSN program? That program is based around getting credit for some classes and doing CSMs for others. Who did...

  3. The College Network and LPN-RN @ Indiana State

    chaxanmom replied to Gamom2three's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Stalk eBay and allnurses for the module. When I took the challenge exams there were several questions straight out of the study guide on

  4. The College Network and LPN-RN @ Indiana State

    chaxanmom replied to Gamom2three's topic in Online Distance Learning

    It's a tad different since ISU does have an affiliation with TCN and EC does not. You can still do ISU without TCN because its not *required* but they can legitimately say they are affliated with

  5. Are doctors all high and mighty?

    chaxanmom replied to trefer84's topic in General Nursing

    That is such a huge generalization. I'm reeeeeally trying not to get offended by it but I'm not having a lot of success. My friend's husband is triple-boarded and runs an ICU. He's been a fellow three...

  6. Are doctors all high and mighty?

    chaxanmom replied to trefer84's topic in General Nursing

    This hasn't been my experience with doctors *at all*. Not at the hospital I'm at now anyway. I met one resident who was kind of terse but could have been business or something. Who knows. The rest...

  7. is she RN???

    chaxanmom replied to laura06baby's topic in General Students

    That doesn't make it ok for someone to lie. There's no excuse for

  8. Socialized Medicine....WHAT IF?

    chaxanmom replied to unclebenny20's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    My husband is active duty military and to an extent yes it's socialized medicine. Being on Prime and going to MTFs feels like what I think socialized medicine would be like and I don't like it....

  9. To my distance learning peeps...

    chaxanmom replied to ivanh3's topic in Online Distance Learning

    JMHO but its probably best to leave political threads where they belong. Not everyone believes that socialism is the answer to America's healthcare

  10. The College Network-collecting sales tax

    chaxanmom replied to CSLee3's topic in Online Distance Learning

    That's iffy with TCN though because the modules *are* a product. They offer both a product and a service so which are they charging sales tax on? I would love to hear an attorney's perspective on this...

  11. The College Network-collecting sales tax

    chaxanmom replied to CSLee3's topic in Online Distance Learning

    No apology necessary. :) Did you notify them that you did not want the additional module? Do you still have your contract? See, here's my thing with TCN. When people sign a contract to pay for...

  12. The College Network-collecting sales tax

    chaxanmom replied to CSLee3's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I got a re-evaluation letter. I just emailed and told them no thank you. I didn't have any problems. They have to have your consent to add another product on anyway. :) What exactly are you planning...

  13. ISU though Sonoma State/College Network.

    chaxanmom replied to tothepointeLVN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    No not really. I used their CSMs for the challenge tests but if you still have your LPN books I don't see why you couldn't just study out of those. The challenge tests are mandatory

  14. ISU though Sonoma State/College Network.

    chaxanmom replied to tothepointeLVN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    ISU (Indiana State) *is* the school so your degree comes from them. No it doesn't look any different. College Network is a company that offers study guides to streamline the process of getting your...

  15. Do you sign "RN' after your name OUTSIDE of the hospital?

    chaxanmom replied to uscstu4lfe's topic in General Nursing

    When you are impersonating an attorney, sign it

  16. Perceptorship

    chaxanmom replied to 09RN's topic in General Students

    I'm doing my last two semesters in critical care. I've already done a preceptorship in oncology so I'm excited to move on to something more intense.

  17. Poked myself with a syringe

    chaxanmom replied to Dakeirus's topic in General Students

    Probably teaching students the proper way to handle a used sharp would be more effective than an empty threat. 100 pages is like a doctoral dissertation. There is no way they are going to require 100...

  18. About online nursing degree program :)

    chaxanmom replied to HeatherTN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    There's a few of us doing the ISU program. Not "through TCN" since they are just a publishing company but I bought a few modules from them. So far its going great. We've posted quite a bit on the ISU...

  19. Oncology rotation

    chaxanmom replied to tessa45's topic in General Students

    I'm doing all my med-surg on oncology. It's not a big deal that you can't hang chemo. You can do everything else and many of them are there d/t complications from their Ca or chemo anyway. We get lots...

  20. Poked myself with a syringe

    chaxanmom replied to Dakeirus's topic in General Students

    I would so call BS but that's just

  21. About online nursing degree program :)

    chaxanmom replied to HeatherTN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    That depends on the program. EC is not online but ISU

  22. Indiana State University BSN students

    chaxanmom replied to EricJRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    The books they use *are* the modules although if you still have your books from LPN school you can probably use

  23. If you weren't a nurse...

    chaxanmom replied to jhns9vl's topic in MICU, SICU

    Fashion designer. I love to sew and play with design. I named my daughter after Coco Chanel. lol! She's going to be a designer so I'll live vicariously through her. I was a SAHM for 10 years so I've...

  24. Best Graduate Program online?

    chaxanmom replied to gd1222's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Drexel is one I'm looking into. Leaning more toward Georgetown's face-to-face programs but Drexel is tempting too. You do have to go on campus a few times and do local clinicals for some of the...

  25. Indiana State University BSN students

    chaxanmom replied to EricJRN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Yeah that's true. Sort of. I believe you have to take them before your first nursing class rather than before you apply but I could be wrong. I just got an email I think a day or two ago that said...
