  1. Depending on where you live, there are "grad entry" DNP options that you might look into. Those are programs for people who hold a BA/BS in another field. The first year or so is the pre-licensure...
  2. Quick Neuro Assessment?

    I also ask the patient to state their full name, the year and month it currently is, and where they are. In addition to the other assessments listed, I have the patient hold their arms out with palms...
  3. ohio state anyone??

    I don't really know what that means, but OSU does have a strong program and is very competitive. Do you go to OSU?? I have 2 Bachelor's Degrees from OSU and am now working on my MSN. They were very...
  4. CSCC RN orientation?

    The orientation is usually during the week. I think it was a Friday when I went. I don't think you actually need to take the STNA test. Most of the hospitals have their own class and they teach you...
  5. CSCC RN orientation?

    I'm not a current student, but I graduated a couple of years ago. I am pretty sure that the orientation (for both online and traditional) is in late-June. You will probably get a letter very soon...
  6. What is your school's HESI policy?

    I graduated from Columbus State 2 years ago and we were required to pass HESI in order to graduate. We had 2 tries at the exam. The first try was at the beginning of our final quarter of school. I...
  7. Hi All! I just wanted to let you know that there is an RN on the ballot Tuesday in Delaware County. She is running for Ohio State Rep (2nd District). She is a Democrat running in the primary and...
  8. I Got in to Frontier!

    No, fortunately I didn't have to do the portfolio--I have a BSN. The portfolio does look a bit daunting...I have a friend who is working on it now. Good luck and hang in
  9. I Got in to Frontier!

    Yes, I guess it must be December that I am thinking of--winter. If you decide to go then, we will get to meet! I am excited and will be ready for the challenges ahead! Thanks for the wishes on my...

  11. starting wage columbus ohio

    Yes, Ohio Health's starting rate for new grads is $22.75 with a $4.75 shift diff....hourly rates are evaluated in July each year, so that rate may go up a
  12. PCA or PCT working at Riverside, OSU, Childrens

    I typically only worked one 8-hour shift per week. That was all that was required for my unit as an SNA. I, like you, wanted to work enough to get some experience, but not so much that my grades...
  13. PCA or PCT working at Riverside, OSU, Childrens

    I worked as an SNA (Student Nurse Associate) at OSU (The James) while I was in nursing school. It is a PCA position, but there is less training and more flexibility regarding schedules. I think you...
  14. ANP 3 or Micro for CNM?

    Well, I'm not yet a CNM, but I know that BSN programs usually require microbiology (at least mine did), so maybe you should take that if you can. I LOVED microbiology! I think it is helpful in...
  15. Well, I would say not to give up hope, but direct entry programs are super competitive and it may take YEARS to inflate your GPA if it is low like you say. My advice would be to become an RN through...
  16. GRE question

    Hi! I got a review book that listed the 300 most common GRE words. I made flashcards and learned all of the words that I didn't already know. I believe that helped TREMENDOUSLY and I got a 710...
  17. Hi! The program that accepted me has a joint CNM/WHNP program that I was planning to do. However, when I spoke with the chair of the program, she told me that doing both is unnecessary in most...
  18. Direct-Entry MSN/MEPN or ADN?

    That's exactly right. When I started my ADN program, I was sure that I was going to continue on to be an FNP. Then, when I was in nursing school, I fell in love with OB and am now in school to be a...
  19. Direct-Entry MSN/MEPN or ADN?

    Hi! One thing to consider--if you get your ADN and then get a job working in a hospital, there is a good chance they will pay for your MSN. Most hospitals seem to do that! Just one more thing to...
  20. New here, welcome and applying for DNP

    Welcome and good luck! I live in Columbus, so I did not apply to Case, but I do know that they have a great program and it is well-respected. Good luck as you pursue your new
  21. me again

    I applied in October and had my interview in late October. My interview (I thought) went really well and she was telling me things I needed to bring to Frontier Bound (so I thought that was a good...

  23. Columbus Area Nursing Schools

    Hi! I just wanted to also point out that Columbus State has an online ADN option for people who already hold a Bachelor's Degree in a non-nursing field. The coursework is online, and then you come...
  24. OSU's Rn-BSN program anyone?

    Hi Abby! I am actually graduating at the end of this quarter from that program. I have really enjoyed it! The classes are demanding, but not so much that you can't manage it with work. The...
  25. Becoming a CNM??

    Most schools make the CNM program a joint MSN and post-master's certificate in Nurse Midwifery. I have a BSN and have just started back to school to earn my MSN and my post-master's certiificate in...
