Thanks for the help!

i sent them an email about their program; i can be independent if there is some kind of video tutorial that goes along with it?

Is that really a good way to do it?

I just looked on Excelsior's website, look's like there are no location's in San Diego...

I started this thread: https://allnurses.com/forums/f8/how-did-you-choose-your-career-nursing-248491.html Looking to get started either as a nurse or an RT. Total cost of ADN through Meric is around 47,500.00 is that alot? Also, they told me I would have be a CNA for at least three months to be considered for the nursing program, is that true?

I have a read a few of the challenges, I might need to read some more though?

I also need to take into consideration, I have moderate Arthritis. I'm not sure how much of a beating my body will take being a nurse?

WOW, their prices really went up. I went there about 3 years ago to inquire about their nursing program and then it was about 35,000. I wonder if there are other schools, I will do some research. Thanks!

I am also looking into Respitory, X-Ray tech. I have an appointment at Meric tomorrow (I have bad things about Meric), but I will go and see what they have to say and the programs they have to offer. Thanks for your honesty...

having a hard time with my career decision? i have worked in hospitals for a total of about 9 years, 4 years at ynhh in ct and 4 1/2 at pomerado, here in poway, ca. both were in patient support, blood runner/transport at yale. lift team at pomerado. while i enjoy working in the medial field and believe that is where i belong, i am having a hard time trying to put my finger on which on which direction to go, either nursing(or something in the medical field), or something it. how did you guys (and gals) choose? or did you always know you wanted to be in nursing? thanks for listening! jason
