  1. I am interested in doing massage therapy and I am a RN. I lack 3 classes before completing my BSN also, but just am not satisfied with doing nursing any longer. I have been doing case management for the last few years and it is extremely boring. Any ...

  3. UWYO Online RN-BSN BEWARE

    I am now taking back what I said about UWYO being a good online school. I have now found that the people of this forum that had problems with UWYO being inconsistent are correct. I would not recommend the school, because when you get ready to graduat...
  4. Starting as a case mangager in 2 weeks

    I am going to disagree with you that it's not a boring job. I have been doing FCM for 4 years and I think it is the most boring job ever. It's mostly paper work, waiting at MD appts and f/u phone calls. But it beats being on your feet for a whole shi...
  5. I was just wondering if anyone keeps malpractice insurance for being a nurse massage therapist? I have thought about pursuing this field, but worry about malpractice. I would like to know if anyone has heard about any malpractice cases against massag...
  6. How do RN's become massage therapists?

    What I was asking is if the schools are certificate programs or degree programs, how long does it take, etc. If it is a certificate program, how do you market yourself as a nurse massage therapist or just a massage therapist? I am interested in this ...

  8. UWYO Online RN-BSN BEWARE

    Good luck. As far as the nursing classes, that part went fine. When it came to all the other classes, they don't know their elbows from their butts. They have the nursing department trying to tell the students what humanities, global, and cultural cl...
  9. Yes, you can be successful in case management and not know the area. It will take some effort on your part, but it is doable. You will have to network, go to social services, state agencies and most of these people will lead you to other resources.

  11. Help for Case Management Certication

    I took the test in 2005. The first time I took it I only studied a book by Mullahay(? spelling) and failed it. The second time I took it, I had ordered the 900 question CD and studied it. I passed. I don't think that I went wrong in paying the two hu...
  12. insurance companies?

    Nursemaryl, It sounds like you work for or worked for Coventry formerly Concentra just by naming their jumbo accounts. Are you still with them? I was recently hired by them and would have been laid off except I went back to my former employer because...

    Go to their website and click on degree programs. Then click on RN-BSN Program. There you will find the curriculum. http://www.ecampus.uwyo.edu/ All of my credits from previously colleges transferred to UWYO. Email Susie Hager for further questions ...
  14. why did you pick your school?

    Bottom line - MONEY/CONVENIENCE. It was a lot cheaper than most colleges. I don't have to pay for gas to get to the class and it is a lot more convenient than having to go to class rather than jumping on the computer. I didn't have to quit work eithe...

  20. Cheapest - yet most strongest online RN - BSN?

    The University of Wyoming online RN to BSN Program is less than $100 per hour. You do have to pay a $40 per hour online fee for each course, but this still makes it the lowest cost program. http://www.uwyo.edu
  21. CCM EXam, Questions and Tips

    I haven't sold it yet. If you are interested let me know.
  22. Questions about exam

    Yes, it is true about the 50 questions. You should receive the results in 8 weeks. There are 2 different size envelopes that are mailed out, one for passing and one for not passing. I don't remember the passing score. Sorry.
  23. RN to BSN online

    Maybe it's just me, but I don't understand why he's repeating the courses just to get into U of Texas. There are just too many other schools to choose from. That will be time consuming and expensive.
  24. What do you suggest?? online or tradtional?

    [ Actually, I think that once you have your RN you can then go through an RN-MSN Program. I don't think that you necessarily have to do the RN-BSN Program.
  25. Question for those attending University of Wyoming

    The classes are online. Each class has a number of units in it that has your assignments. You only have a set number of weeks to complete each of the units. You can log on anytime of the day or night and complete the assignments. Hope this helps!
