    ANP 3 or Micro for CNM?

    littlemamakt replied to littlemamakt's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Hello CNM2B! What the BSN schools want has been the driving force behind my decisions in classes up to this point, so I was planning on micro. But now I'm hoping to go through Frontier's ASN-MSN...

    littlemamakt replied to Innurse78's topic in Indiana Nursing

    Congrats on the good scores/grades! It sounds like you'll be at the top of your pool for admissions. That must put you somewhat more at ease during your three month wait! I wonder why the NCLEX rate...

    littlemamakt replied to HeartsOpenWide's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Hi Jill! I scored 93.5 on the TEAS, which I'm very happy with. So far, I have two As and one B. That gives me 176.5 points the way the South Bend campus figures scores (30+30+20+93.5+3). I heard...

    I just took the TEAS Saturday, and got a pretty good score, so I'll be turning in my app soon too! I agree, it's going to be an awful wait until the end of May. I'm applying to the South Bend ASN...

    Ivy Tech nursing uniforms

    littlemamakt replied to 2bNurse Elizabeth's topic in Indiana Nursing

    So, now I'm wondering, if you're in a two year (RN) program, will your uniform change the second year? Or, is one color worn for both years?

    Ivy Tech nursing uniforms

    littlemamakt replied to 2bNurse Elizabeth's topic in Indiana Nursing

    Oh no! White scrub pants are going to be difficult to keep white with our hard water out here. Even with a softener, everything white looks dingy lol. So we can't wear those cute Nursemate clogs?...

    How did you continue on from your ASN degree?

    littlemamakt replied to sunnydaydream's topic in Indiana Nursing

    There are some "bridge" programs now. At Frontier, for example, you take one year of bridge classes, basically skip your BSN, and start MSN classes. You aren't actually awarded a BSN. I guess this...

    Ivy Tech nursing uniforms

    littlemamakt replied to 2bNurse Elizabeth's topic in Indiana Nursing

    Are the South Bend scrubs tan? Are the scrubs the same for both the LPN and RN classes? What kind of shoes do they require? Can they be slip on/clogs, or do they need to be closed in the back? I...

    littlemamakt replied to Billsgirl's topic in Indiana Nursing

    Thank you so much for your posts about your schedules! I hate that it is all such a mystery. That's not so bad. I was making it out to be so much worse. Well, gotta go to bed. I'm taking the...

    Does it really cost $20-25,000 for CNM malpractice insurance?

    littlemamakt posted a topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Hello! I just googled CNM malpractice insurance, and found a couple of news articles that said CNMs pay up to $20,000 http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0CYD/is_12_39/ai_n6101578 or $25,000...

    how much Indiana nurses make

    littlemamakt replied to nurseluv9's topic in Indiana Nursing

    Hello! Do RNs in NW Indiana make a little more than in South Bend? Just wondering because I know it is more expensive to live in NWI. That's part of the reason we moved back to the SB

    littlemamakt replied to Kensington's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Jojieblue- couldn't you do a direct entry BSN if you already have a Bachelor's in another field? I think it would take the same number of years as the ADN and you would come out with your Bachelor's...

    The easiest way I've heard it described is that negative feedback takes something closer to the norm, making the body more stable. 98% of feedback is negative. Positive feedback moves the body away...
