  1. How are you going to Vote - US

    Cilantrophobe replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

  5. NVCC Fall '08 Stats

    Cilantrophobe replied to RNwannabe2011's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Cilantrophobe replied to RNwannabe2011's topic in Virginia Nursing

    My level of worry have gone down significantly since speaking with Mrs. Fowler. She was very honest and helpful, something I never expected. I am probably overconfident about getting in. I cannot wait...

    Cilantrophobe replied to RNwannabe2011's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Cilantrophobe replied to Bpeaceful2All's topic in Virginia Nursing

    I am sorry to hear about your first test. I hope you had better luck today. I am not in the nursing program and am curious how you, and everyone else in the nursing program, would compare the nursing...

  12. NVCC First yr students, How goes the battle?

    Cilantrophobe replied to Flames9_RN's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Man that all sounds chaotic. I found some Sim Lab Video video on the nursing website about their robotic simulator. If they don't give demonstrations and just expect people to know exactly what to do...

    Cilantrophobe replied to Flames9_RN's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Tracheostomy..? My NAS 162 teacher said that only paramedics, physicians and surgeons did those. Do nurses do them as well or do they just learn how but never actually do

    Cilantrophobe replied to Flames9_RN's topic in Virginia Nursing

    We moved here on the same day, along with our son and dog. HAHA. Anyways, like I said we don't qualify till the 23rd of Feb. I just wanted to know what other people would do in my shoes which would be...

    Cilantrophobe replied to Flames9_RN's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Nursing Geek-when did you start the program? Aren't you based out of Alexandria for your labs? I thought you told me that once. Do you know if they have classed-up another bunch of hybrid nursing...

    I am not even in the program yet and I have already gotten that

  18. NVCC First yr students, How goes the battle?

    Cilantrophobe replied to Flames9_RN's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Is it true that once you are accepted into the program that you can test out of medical terminology for the credit rather than take the course? Sort of like a Clep? AND I sold my HESI study guide...

  19. NVCC-A&P textbook

    Cilantrophobe posted a topic in Virginia Nursing

    I swear we need our own forum... Is it recommended to keep the Principles of Anatomy & Physiology textbook? Do you need it while in the program? I am currently in NAS 162 and while we are still...

    Cilantrophobe replied to Cilantrophobe's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Cilantrophobe replied to Cilantrophobe's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Good for you, that is awesome. I couldn't stand our military. I just felt like I never fit in and as though I was always misunderstood. Not to mention I worked with so many lazy people, and I was...

  23. Transgender Nursing Student

    Cilantrophobe replied to Transgender_n_TN's topic in General Students

    I know this is a big part of your life and something you are proud of, but you already know that not everyone will be supportive of you. IMO You're probably safer just keeping things to yourself while...

  24. Failed Drug Test!!!!!!

    Cilantrophobe replied to coolpeach's topic in General Nursing

    I agree, wait until you are ready and then report him. Leaving the message was wrong. And about the mix up of information...when my husband requested a copy of his 2005 tax return the IRS sent us...
