  1. Online Classes

    I think that was me who suggested taking the "easy" ones online Depending on what you think is easy of course! I'm a visual learner when it comes to math and science. I need to watch and do, so...
  2. MSMC entry-level BSN?

    As far as I know it's all to make as confusing as possible
  3. MSMC entry-level BSN?

    Entry level BSN means you don't have a BS/BA in any field and are not already an ADN. More than a couple of the programs I am looking at refer to it in these terms and I used it to differentiate from...
  4. new WCU BSN program

    Being a member of an organization is different than being accredited by an organization. They are not reciprocal
  5. Pregnant!! Anyone else?

    So
  6. Lots of pre-req questions!

    Consider taking some of these "easier" classes online, that way you can hack away at them on your own time rather than having to leave your toddler or deal with a work schedule. You might even be...
  7. MSMC entry-level BSN?

    No I don't have a bachelor's degree, so I'm asking about their EL-BSN. I am also aware of difference fees for the ADN program there versus a community college. Whether or not it makes sense depends...
  8. "Old" vs. "New" Midwifery Books

    I have it but have rarely referred to it. I rely more on Varney for pregnancy. It was my go-to textbook in midwifery school too and I was to the point I knew exactly what page numbers certain issues...
  9. "Old" vs. "New" Midwifery Books

    I call this Curse of the Birth Junkie. It's an affliction that many of use future midwives suffer from early on. It takes a few years to lighten up on personal dogma. Wait until either one of you...
  10. new WCU BSN program

    Ah, national accreditation, not regional. Regional accreditation directly transfers to CSU/UC programs while national accreditation doesn't. It can probably be done and has been done, but not...
  11. new WCU BSN program

    Here are the CCNE accredited programs, I don't see WCU there. Here are the western region accredited schools, I don't see WCU there. Do you mean then they are working on it? I've said in the thread...
  12. new WCU BSN program

    I'm afraid to ask but I will: Is it regionally accredited? NLN or CCNE
  13. "Old" vs. "New" Midwifery Books

    No long-term worries :chuckle "Lay midwife" has been used as a catch-all term to define a non-nurse-midwife for a long time but now as standardized academic education, versus the traditional stand...
  14. "Old" vs. "New" Midwifery Books

    The only ones who can use the CM designation are those who graduated from programs accredited ACNM/ACMB and even CMs are DEMs since they are not nurse-midwives Gotta love this alphabet soup! No...
  15. Pregnant!! Anyone else?

    Learn about the risks of inductions for convenience is my advice. They don't always work out like we hope. Congratulations and good luck.
  16. "Old" vs. "New" Midwifery Books

    Direct your sister to NARM.org for the CPM program information, whether or not she can get a license. Getting the CPM credential means she has met the minimum educational standards for a direct-entry...
  17. Chemistry Fall 2008

    Count me in! This semester I have chemistry and intermediate
  18. New RN program in So Cal!?!

    Approval by the board of nursing is NOT regional accreditation. Regional accreditation comes from this body: WASC. I don't see Everest listed here or here. I think you need to ask Everest when they...
  19. new WCU BSN program

    What is
  20. opinions about homebirthing

    What they aim to do is anyone's guess at the moment considering their recent statements/resolutions regarding midwives and advanced practice nurses (doctorates). The funniest thing ever is they say in...
  21. Can't choose between ADN or BSN program!

    I don't believe once you get the ADN that your sciences will expire if you don't deal with BSN or MSN bridge... if they did, then sciences classes would always be filled with nurses trying to renew...
  22. Can you provide a link? I didn't know the "list" was posted online. Thanks
  23. opinions about homebirthing

    In states where licenses are issued to qualified direct-entry midwives, it is exactly that way.
  24. opinions about homebirthing

    They are legal now and according to the Supreme Court, "The court's majority said the Missouri State Medical Association and three other medical groups had no legal standing to sue in the first...
  25. opinions about homebirthing

    Actually in some places it is illegal for a CNM to attend a home birth. South Dakota has recently enacted a 'pilot law' to allow CNMs to attend home births until 2013, but prior to that it was...
