Grayson County College has an excellent LVN-RN program. I met many of them when they transitioned to the RN program and they REALLY knew their stuff. Very tough program but well, well worth it in...
Can someone please tell me what the scope of practice for a MA is in Texas? I have looked online and can't seem to find the information. Thanks in advance for all

How does that work in a hospital setting? Are they even using MA's in hospitals in Texas? I ask this because I read a thread that got me interested in the topic and cannot find the answer. I guess...

The two major hospitals in Sherman/Denison are Texoma Medical Center (Denison) and Wilson N. Jones (Sherman). Both are good rural hospitals. TMC just broke ground to build a new hospital that should...
I will gladly be called a dork for crying at pinning! I thought I might...then as it got closer, I thought I wouldn't because of all the stress. But when I walked in that auditorium and heard the...

We were taught (recent grad.) that normal PSA is less that 4. It is slightly elevated with BPH, prostatitis and prostatic infarction. At a level of 10, they worry about prostate CA but it is not...
I had 30 SATA questions on my NCLEX and do not feel that all of them are higher level questions. I had some that were simple/easy......and some that were very difficult. So I do not feel that the fact...

I am new to this thread as I am a new RN that just passed NCLEX a couple of days ago!!!! I start my new position in med/surg on a medical/oncology floor in their internship program. Unlike my other...
A couple of weeks ago my classmates license was posting on the BON first thing the morning after their test. Then last week it went to first thing in the morning two days later. Well hopefully mine...
You are not losing your mind. I cannot speak for what is going on. I took my test Monday and finished at about 0930. Pearson posted my results at 0805 this morning. Wish I had some insight for you....
Thank you MommaMel! Here is a sample of # of questions for the people in my class from who I know have taken it. From only the ones that I know......... 18 passed with 75 questions 1 failed with 75...
Believe me I tried to save my money and not pay Pearson another penny. Two weeks ago the Texas BON was posting the license at about 24 hours. Last week it dropped to 48 hours. Now I am at 60 hours...
That is CRAZY!!! What are they going to do, try to find your test and then give you the results? What do they mean by outsourcing??? I really hope everything works out for you. Let us
I too used Kaplan for questions and Saunders for content. Saunders questions are too easy but it has excellent rationales to review. Kaplan's questions are harder and make you think but the...
I was hoping to hear through my boards because they have been posting rather quickly. Pearson said my quick results were available literally 48 hours and 5 minutes after starting my exam. I'm...
