  1. Special Needs "Classroom" Nurse

    I have been crawling around this forum looking for some answers, but decided to just ask my question outright. I interviewed recently for a job as a special needs classroom nurse for a K-8 school....
  2. I have been reading over countless threads relating to help with nursing care plans and was reluctant to ask for help, but I decided to do it anyway. I am a 1st semester PN student working on my...

  4. Another nursing care plan question

    The dosage for coumadin is 2.5, not 25. I did make a typo. I also wanted to thank Daytonite and everyone else who helped me with this care plan. My instructor struggled to find flaws in it. This...
  5. Another nursing care plan question

    I am glad you pointed that out. They take her PT/INR twice a week, is that more than necessary? I have done it once myself and never really paid much attention to applying pressure to the fingerstick...

    that was my goal... thanks.. i used ineffective protection... here are the nursing interventions i am considering using: NI #1 -- follow contact precautions including handwashing/use of PPE when...
  7. Another nursing care plan question

    Oh, I see. Like, Ineffective "Protection" as in immune system or defense mechanisms? Thanks for the explanation! I have seen how many people you have helped on here and really appreciate your
  8. Another nursing care plan question

    Wow, thanks for the speedy response. Why is it Ineffective Protection instead of Risk for Bleeding? My instructor recently sent us an email with new 2009-2011 nursing diagnoses organized according to...
  9. Single moms in school

    Although I am not a single mom, I am a stay-at-home-mom in nursing school with a 2 year old and a 3 year old. My husband works during the day and is usually occupied at night working on another...

  12. Gateway LPN Fast Track

    Hi Glina, for some reason it won't let me reply to your message. The same thing happened to me when I applied in Spring 08. I was put on the wait list one semester and then got the same call you did,...
  13. frustrated with career path in healthcare

    In the Banner system, unless you are an RN, the only thing you are allowed to do is apply online and play the waiting game. I have tried calling HR personally, and that is what they have told me....
  14. Hello! I live in Florence, AZ and have been reading several of these forums for some time now and finally decided to make a post with a plea for help from all of you with expertise who've "been...
  15. At home jobs

    what about a job with an insurance company? Like on a "nurseline" or something. That's all they do is basically triage and patient education. It doesn't pay much, but you could do transcription on...
  16. CAC pre-requirements

    Speaking of CAC's website, I never could figure out which sites have the nursing program. CAC has so many satellite-branch schools. I noticed there is a new one in Queen Creek. Does anyone know...
  17. CNA prgram in Phoenix area

    I took my state boards at Chula Vista. It's not the nicest nursing home in town, but it is big, as AZMOMO2 says, and might be a good place to get experience at. I can't remember if they do their own...
  18. CNA prgram in Phoenix area

    The extended care facility at which I did my clinical rotations for my CNA program hired some of their CNAs first and then put them through their own CNA training. Then they paid for a group...
  19. i wanna be a nurse...

    Yes, I agree with Graciee2. Take biology and chemistry because, if you are interested in the maricopa community college nursing program, your high school science classes will count as your science...
  20. Prereqs For Maricopa Community LPN

    My composite score for the NET was somewhere in the high 70's as well. But I really only studied the night before for it and I hadn't taken MATH in almost 15 years. In fact, I didn't even finish the...
  21. Prereqs For Maricopa Community LPN

    Hi -- I was on the alternate list. I applied for Fall 08 and didn't make it in because I applied very late. They called to offer me a spot in the bilingual program, but I don't speak Spanish...
  22. frustrated with career path in healthcare

    I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who applied to my post back in October about my frustration with the healthcare career path. It is one year later and I now have my CNA (certificate and...
  23. Prereqs For Maricopa Community LPN

    I hope I am replying for the correct thread. The reason the two hcc classes (med terms, etc) are not required anymore is because they are wrapped into NUR158 which is the new curriculum for the CNA....
  24. frustrated with career path in healthcare

    I may not have made it clear...I just started the first required course in the CNA program which is medical terminology. I still have to take Fundamentals in Health Care Delivery and the Nurse...
