  1. New Grad NICU Support Thread

    Satori77 replied to niculove's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    This is a great thread. I took two days to read through the whole thing. It is nice to know many people are getting NICU jobs right out of school. The more I think about it, this is the only place I...

  3. Back To School Supplies :-)

    Satori77 replied to hmowry's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Satori77 replied to arielmhod's topic in Colorado Nursing

    I don't have advice, but I am taking A&P I through CCConline fall semester (home college is FRCC). I'm working and the other classes didn't fit around my schedule. I know that the courses are the...

  7. Children's Hospital Colorado Nurse Residency Program August 2013

    Satori77 replied to i<3veggiesRN's topic in Colorado Nursing

    I'm curious, you say to volunteer with kids. What type of volunteer experience are you talking about? Can it be anything with kids, like tutoring or Boys and Girls Club. Or do you mean volunteering at...

  8. Specialty

    Satori77 replied to julzgarcia's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've heard many nurses on this forum say it is competitive. I lurk a lot in the NICU forum. It can be very hard to get in for a new grad. And most other specialties don't translate well because it is...

  9. Specialty

    Satori77 replied to julzgarcia's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've been giving this a lot of thought, and honestly it makes me nervous. I know a lot of people change their minds, but the only areas I'm really interested in are NICU and OR. I can't really see...

  10. Vaccinations/Titers Questions: HELP!

    Satori77 replied to mtgip12's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    There should be a low cost clinic in your area. Here, there is one through the county. That is where I plan on going. I will get titers since I've had all the shots, I just might need a booster, like...

  13. Never Too Old for Nursing School

    Satori77 replied to Biosciencegeek's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thank you for this topic. I am starting my last year of prereqs (I've been doing it off and on for a few years now because of working, kids and a sick mother). But I am nearing the finish line! I am...

  14. NICU exposure in Nursing School

    Satori77 posted a topic in NICU, Neonatal

    I know all schools are different, and I do plan on asking the schools I am applying to this very question. But I am curious what everyone's experiences were in their school. How much time did you...

    Satori77 replied to X-Nurse14's topic in Colorado Nursing

    I think you both have excellent chances! Very

  16. Online Anatomy & Physiology?? (accredited!)

    Satori77 replied to Lynn829's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Look at community colleges in your state first, because it will be cheaper. But if you can't find A&P through a school there, look up CCConline. It is through Colorado, where I live, but I have...

  17. Any med centers that are not critical of time-off marijuana consumption?

    Satori77 replied to Fluidified's topic in Colorado Nursing

    I agree, one should be able to use marijuana either medically or recreationally. But unfortunately, unlike alcohol or cigarettes, it is still illegal on a federal level. Until that changes, employers...

    Satori77 replied to Crew2Nursing's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  20. How to start pursing a career in nursing with young children

    Satori77 replied to feliciageorge4510's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It is very hard doing it with young children, but I know people that have done it, so short answer, it can be done. I first started looking into nursing school and doing prereq classes when my two...

  21. Online Prereqs

    Satori77 replied to Satori77's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I understand what you are saying, but these classes at my local community college are the exact same science classes that you take at the school (and a couple of the classes are not science). They do...

  22. Nursing versus medical technologist/clinical lab scientist

    Satori77 replied to itsmerae's topic in Nursing Career

    It is something I have thought about as well. I am currently a vet tech looking at changing careers and want to do something in human medicine. I always enjoyed doing lab work and it didn't bore me....

  23. What is chemistry for nursing like?

    Satori77 replied to abbypoo's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That's strange. All the nursing programs around here require general chemistry, same as any other student. I've never even heard of chemistry for nursing

  24. What are some good nursing schools in Colrado?

    Satori77 replied to tmzmckinney's topic in Colorado Nursing

    Depend on where you are. In Denver I've heard good things about DSN. I had a friend go there and she loved it. I'm applying to UNC in Greeley but I live in Fort Collins. It's probably the best BSN...

  25. Denver area experienced RN BSN job outlook

    Satori77 replied to L&Dhopeful's topic in Ob/Gyn

    You might want to post this in the Colorado forum for more replies. But I agree about Denver Health. They seem to have openings, and I hear lots of good things about them from my father (an employee,...
