  2. Ohio University RN-to-BSN Program

    mtsteelhorse replied to chuckster's topic in Ohio University

    Oh, so no course home page yet thus no section number. I guess I'll wait patiently. This must mean I'm not in anyone's class who's already found their course info.

    mtsteelhorse replied to chuckster's topic in Ohio University

    Epic is up for Legal/Ethics - not much to work with there! Very FEW assignments - 2 quizes (15 pts each), 2 three to four page papers (20 pts each) and the group discussion posts, 3 worth 10 pts...

  6. Should I try and become a Nurse in a Naturopathic Clinic or a Naturopathic Doctor?

    mtsteelhorse replied to NenaRK's topic in Holistic

    I don't know the path of study to become a naturopath but I would certainly investigate. You are young with a passion for holistic medicine...how refreshing! If I had your options I would likely go...

  8. NP wanna be

    mtsteelhorse posted a topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Okay, so I need some words of wisdom, encouragement or a reality check. I'm 50 years old and I truly want to complete my NP degree. I'm working on my BSN and will be done this time next year. I hope...

  9. Correctional nursing opportunities

    mtsteelhorse replied to gptrn's topic in Correctional

    I think that depends on the facility but that is unlikely. Many facilities utilize contract services for their health care services. I am a supervisor in a very tiny county detention center and I'm...

  10. Correctional nursing opportunities

    mtsteelhorse replied to gptrn's topic in Correctional

    I understand where you're coming from in regard to SNFs. The nice thing about nursing is we never have to remain locked in to one area forever. If you can get a good schedule that IS hugely important...

    mtsteelhorse replied to Chiro's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    bluedoc, I love your idea of expanding as an FNP...I think that will definitely add some financial security to your position. What a great concept to combine these modalities. I wish you immense...

  13. Chiropractor to FNP

    mtsteelhorse replied to Chiro's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    For you chiros interested in NP programs...can you share your views on holistically treating patients? I am completing my RN-BSN online and have considered NP school following that. However, I am more...

    mtsteelhorse replied to chuckster's topic in Ohio University

  15. Anyone done NIWH Whole Health Educator program?

    mtsteelhorse replied to BetterSafe's topic in Holistic

    I am really interested in this. I want the information for its own value but I'm also hoping that somewhere down the road I can transition into an area of nursing that embraces holistic nursing. I...

  17. NP wanna be

    mtsteelhorse replied to mtsteelhorse's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Thank you...I'll do that! I am hard on myself. I guess I'm not sure what I should know already vs what I'll learn as I go. So many nurses have ER/ICU backgrounds when they go to NP school so they are...

  18. NP wanna be

    mtsteelhorse replied to mtsteelhorse's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Thanks guys. I think what I mean is my work isn't very challenging most days. I do have a LOT of responsibility when it comes to patient care and assessment. However, I don't know how to read EKGs (we...

    mtsteelhorse replied to chuckster's topic in Ohio University

    Call the nursing dept directly and don't hang up until you get the answers you need. Someone has likely not followed through or misplaced something. Call first thing Mon and be persistent no matter...

    mtsteelhorse replied to bailey502's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Congrats to you!!! I would love to hear about how difficult the program is. Two courses at a time is considered FT and I don't know if people do that and work. Those of you enrolled please

    mtsteelhorse replied to chuckster's topic in Ohio University

    So chuckster, you have 455 for Fall session 3. Does that go into 2013??? Yikes. I thought 2013 would be spring session. I must not understand the new

    mtsteelhorse replied to chuckster's topic in Ohio University

    Your life sounds like mine! A lot of OU students have general ed. requirements to fulfill. I still think it's cheaper than many of the other online programs. I think they have a general chemistry...

  23. Ohio University RN-to-BSN Program

    mtsteelhorse replied to chuckster's topic in Ohio University

    Online classes are not easy. Many of us choose that route because it simply affords us the opportunity to attend school within our chosen time frame rather than a scheduled class format. Is the...

  24. Ohio University RN-to-BSN Program

    mtsteelhorse replied to chuckster's topic in Ohio University

    UoP and Kaplan are spendy, too. Univ of Wesleyan was one of my picks as well. For the money you can't beat OU. You can take some of those icky courses at a community college if you have access. If...

  25. How did you do it?

    mtsteelhorse replied to FutureBSN?'s topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I visited the Watts SON website. The next information session is Jan 2012. Sometimes they have these information sessions so you can get on their waiting list. That was the case for me in...
