I was just curious if there are any graduates of this program here in TX? Does anyone know of any individuals who may have completed the program? Did anyone pursue this program with a focus on holistic adult health (clinical nurse specialist)? Was...

Well I'm glad some other folks are looking into Texas Tech's second degree bsn. I'm still working on my prereqs, but I still cannot find anyone who has completed the program. I had originally planned to start this year, but I had to take a year off...

I'm glad this post has received many responses. I was curious to know if anyone has actually worked abroad in South America as a nurse. I mentioned before that is something I really want to do. Ideally, I would like to spend anywhere from a year t...

I want to say thank you MaryK for posting on this particular topic. I am really interested in working abroad as a nurse. I have been looking at Buenos Aires, Argentina or Santiago, Chile. I have looked at several programs that deal with learning m...

Hello NewBeginning. Some of the other posters are correct in saying that Covenant and UMC are the two larger hospitals here in town. There is also one smaller hospital here as well. As far as nursing schools go, there are three in the area. South...

Carachel, I have a question that you might be able to help me out with. I have heard some nurses in different cities tell me that they make more than an NP? Do they make the same salary working the standard 40 hour work week? When they make a stat...

Good evening everyone. I am hoping to get some information concerning duties and salaries for nurse managers. I'm sure duties and salary vary with position, responsibility, and experience, but I am hoping I can get some general or specific informat...

Soso, I am actually looking at applying at an accelerated BSN program where I am located. That was the original plan until I started reading about the direct entry msn programs. I didn't even know the school I was looking at offered an accelerated ...

Thanks Soso, I guess I overlooked it since I was not able to locate one here in TX? Do you know anyone who has gone through the program? If they did complete the program, did they get hired as an advanced practicing nurse or did they have to work as...

nacha, sorry to here you not able to meet the deadline for the start date. i was looking at everything, and it looks like i will be done with prereqs next fall (2008). the only thing that i will have left to take during that fall semester is pathop...

Nacha, was just curious if you have completed your CNA certification. Also, I checked the SON website and it has been changed and updated from a few weeks ago. I see that a medical terminology course is now a prereq. One other thing, are you going...

Nacha, I have been searching these forums and asking the nurses that I encounter if they know anyone who has completed the accelerated BSN and so far I haven't met or talked to anyone that knows anyone who has completed the program. It looks like I'...

I'm currently at SPC finishing my prereqs. I've talked to a few students in my classes and it is an even mix of those going to SPC for nursing and those going to Covenant for nursing. I'm looking at the accelerated BSN at Tech and possibly a direct...

Thank you for the info SOBsSiren. I was going to ask you if you know anywhere here in the Lubbock area where I can get my CNA certificate. I need that for what I am pursuing. Also, I wanted to know what they get paid since I am working a retail jo...

Thanks for responding texas_lvn. Do you know how to get the CNA certificate or qualification. The reason I ask is because it is required for the 2nd degree BSN. I tried to search the schools in the area that have classes for the CNA position and T...

Thanks for the info. I'm glad to get different opinions. Now I seem more confused. I have heard varying things about both programs that are contradictary! One of my girlfriend's cousins has stated her opinions on Covenant which were favorable. S...

That is what I was thinking since the program is 12 months long. I have talked to several students in the regular SON program at Tech and every single one of them says it is a good, tough program. I can only imagine the same program completed in ha...

I was just wondering if anyone knows any folks who have gone through Tech's accelerated BSN program. I already have info on the program, but I want to know how intense it was as opposed to traditional programs. Hopefully someone has info out there.

I am just curious to know if anyone has done the 2nd degree program at Tech. I am looking at several different options and this is one of them. I'm almost done with the prereqs and was trying to find anyone who has completed the program. I talked ...

Just want to say thank you to core0. I have read your responses on many posts and you always bring some really good studies or articles to back up or discredit points being made. It reminds me of my debate days in high school many years ago. Passi...

wow, this thread has really taken off since i posted last. i have read all of the posts and i want to say thanks for everyone's opinion. i really enjoy this forum because we have a lot of people that keep up with what is going on in their professio...

Sorry about the spelling. Tonight is the first night I have posted on the forums although I have been coming to the site for about a year. I need to figure out how to use the spell check!

I'm here in TX and I haven't been able to locate any DE NP programs here in TX. I am working on my pre reqs currently and reconsidering entering a DE program. I called a few of the hospitals in the state and a lot of the recruiters had not heard of...

I know this thread hasn't had any responses in a while, but I just wanted to comment on some things I have learned from reading so many posts and threads on allnurses.com. I live in TX in a city of about 200,000 and called several hospitals in some ...
