Hi everyone! I am an RN-BSN student and am currently taking an online community health nursing course. One of my assignments is to interview a public health nurse (via online, by phone or in person). I would greatly appreciate it if someone would tak...

I thought I had posted this already but it did not show up so my apologies if this posts twice =/ For a project in my nursing class we need the response of 25 people to the following question: If you were to start your career over would you still go ...

ShionRN glad I could help ya =) I wasn't sure what to expect before I started either, since some reviews were not too favorable....but like I have previously posted, I have nothing but positive things to say about the program =) If you have any quest...

echraide, I am in the RN-BSN program. I still love it! I have yet to have ANY problems with the program!

Just to update the forum..yes you can double up classes =) It has been a great program!

What program are you in? Most of us are doing RN-BSN. I am in their distant online program and have not had any problems with the school, classes or advancing to the next semester with passing scores. I am not a very religious person and don't feel p...

thank you all for your replies!!

Thanks for your quick replies! I really appreciate it :)

I agree with the above post..I wouldn't do it for 4 months. Cost of living is higher is Canada than in MOST parts of the US. Plus you have to think about being taught HOW to take the NCLEX, which is a lot different from the CRNE. Not to mention you h...

You will be fine with those =) I was doing the Chem, English2, and computers all together..that was hard!

Yes I took all 4 in one semester but I am not currently working. I would NOT suggest taking that many while working! Health and Wellness is an easy A. Chemistry is hard but doable if you study (or are good at chemistry =P) and Microcomputers has a lo...

I just finished up my first semester at FHCHS and I LOVE it!! I am doing the RN-BSN program. The communication with advisers, instructors, financial aid and etc is amazing! I took Chemistry, English II, Microcomputers, and Health and Wellness. I can'...

Can't help you with questions regarding Excelsior, but as a U.S. nurse with an Associate Degree I was turned down by the CNO to write the Canadian National Exam. I have applied at FHCHS to do their RN-BSN program.

Hi Renee8, Sorry to hear about the difficult times you are going through. A lot of community colleges offer online courses. I would suggest to retake your English either on campus or online but use the tutoring services that are usually offered. I am...

I was in you shoes not too long ago.... I was a new grad and went straight into ICU. I did not recieve good training to be in a unit like that. I did have a long orientation but was just given a stack of case studies and was told to complete before m...

I am a new grad that just got off orientation and currently work in ICU. It has been a nightmare. I have decided with all the caos that is going on there (short staffing, 3 pt assignments, pulling our staff and leaving us short, along with a ton of n...

It showed up for me 48 hrs after I walked out of the building..lol. I checked my state BON and pearson I think every hr from the time I got home until it finally became available. I was such a nervous wreck. You will feel a huge relief when you get y...

I just took the test on Tuesday and got 90 something questions and PASSED! Don't let the number scare you!!

I envy all you guys who actually get a break from nursing school! I have been going for 3 semesters with only a few days off between semesters. I NEED a break! Actually we will get a whole week and a half off before fall semester but of course there...

I had my first week of clinicals this week and had a hard time getting the narrative notes done..I am a little confused on what I am supposed to be writing and would like to see some examples. If anyone knows where I can find some I would be greatful...

Thanks, I'll check it out. :)

lol....I JUST finished ironing mine :chuckle but our instructor tells us we need too...

I too am in my 2nd week of school. Our first test was a total shock! There was not one person (out of 60) who passed it with a 77 or better! Of course we complained about a lot of the questions and the instructors threw out some of the questions, whi...

Cool website! Thanks!! :)

I too am starting this Fall (Aug 17th) for the 2 year ADN program! I am so excited but at the same time I'm scared to death!!
