  2. Maricopa Skill Center

    mkalizmoore posted a topic in Arizona Nursing

    Are there any current Maricopa Skill Center LPN students out there? I think that that is the route that I am going to take to get me on the path to becoming a RN, but I have a few questions. How...

  4. Med-Surg

    mkalizmoore posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

    What is it about med surg floors that make people want to avoid them? I have just started looking into nursing recently and have been reading books and the posts on this site, and there always seems...

  5. Med-Surg

    mkalizmoore replied to mkalizmoore's topic in First Year After Licensure

    So to me it seems like the experience you will have just depends on the hospital you work at. The people with smaller patient loads seem to enjoy their experience a lot more than those with 6 or 7...

  6. How long did you wait?

    mkalizmoore replied to JettaDP's topic in Arizona Nursing

  8. A New Hospital for Maricopa?

    mkalizmoore replied to chocolateskye's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Is Maricopa in Pinal County near Queen Creek? If so,I believe that is going to be Banner Ironwood Medical Center. They are also in the process of building a hospital in

  11. Advanced Placement for MCCC

    mkalizmoore posted a topic in Arizona Nursing

    Has anyone gotten into the nursing program by going through the advanced placement route? I think that I want to go through the LPN program at Maricopa Skill Center first. I am just curious as to...

  12. Med-Surg

    mkalizmoore replied to mkalizmoore's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Is not difficult having to work with sick kids? Just the thought of it makes me

  13. Med-Surg

    mkalizmoore replied to mkalizmoore's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Is that pretty much the standard on a med/surg floor, 7 or 8 patients at a time? That seems overwhelming to me. I can't imagine that as a new

  15. Maricopa Skill Center

    mkalizmoore replied to mkalizmoore's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I haven't really done much research on Lpn's because I am heading towards being a RN, but from what I have hear there aren't many jobs for LPNs in hospitals. For instance I work for Banner and there...

    mkalizmoore replied to mkalizmoore's topic in Arizona Nursing

  20. Maricopa Skill Center

    mkalizmoore replied to mkalizmoore's topic in Arizona Nursing
