  1. Where to get an MSN after NSC

    smallnurse10 replied to gabby27's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Nevada State College has received full accreditation from the board of nursing. You shouldn't have a problem getting an MSN

  2. Kaplan College to Nevada

    smallnurse10 replied to Student0ntheRise's topic in General Students

    I don't think it is possible and UNLV does not offer an RN-BSN program anymore. Nevada state requires the school to be NLN or CCNE

  3. First meeting with School... Any advice?

    smallnurse10 replied to joianett's topic in Nevada Nursing

    I am not trying to be negative Joia, but you will have a hard time getting accepted without having biology 224 complete. I know you can apply without it, but when I got accepted everyone in my class...

  4. Orientation at CSN

    smallnurse10 replied to joianett's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Take Bio189. I am sure you will do fine and why waste time taking another course that cannot be used for nursing

  5. Apollo College Associates Degree Program

    smallnurse10 replied to MICHEVOG's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Don't worry about the money. I think in your situation it makes sense to attend Apollo. $46K is a lot for tuition, but it is comparable to every other private institution. As a nurse you will be...

  6. Orientation at CSN

    smallnurse10 replied to joianett's topic in Nevada Nursing

    I am in the first semester at CSN and my gpa was 2.8. Having good grades helps, but the way the point system is set up at CSN you will still be able to get in if your grades aren't spectacular....

  7. Waiting for Decision Letters from Schools...

    smallnurse10 replied to seattlerainsun's topic in General Students

    When I decided to go to RN school I did massive research for schools all over the country. I was living in Reno, NV at the time and the schools there are competitive and I didn't think I had any...

  8. how is school?

    smallnurse10 replied to ohmeowzer RN's topic in Nevada Nursing

    They said that we cannot record so I'm pretty sure that includes all classes including lecture, lab and clinical. I would like to record also, but oh well. I will do fine writing my own

  9. Online Classes

    smallnurse10 replied to Cupcake89121's topic in Nevada Nursing

    I just thought I would respond to the MMR question. Yes you need two doses. I had my first dose when I was 18 months and my second dose when I was 11 years old. If you haven't had a second dose you...

  10. ATI testing on Jan. 6..

    smallnurse10 replied to sribell86's topic in Nevada Nursing

    I'm sure it's probably 9, but I've just been thinking for the past month 7:30 so when I went and looked at the paper today and it said 9 I started freaking out! I'm sure I just got it wrong though....

  11. ATI testing on Jan. 6..

    smallnurse10 replied to sribell86's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Do we have to be there at 8:30 or 7:30? I know on our papers it says 9am, but I was sure that one of the instructors at orientation said 7:30. Is 8:30

  12. Move to FL for schooling ?

    smallnurse10 replied to hevnbnd4's topic in California Nursing

    I know that she has never had any problems on her floor, was promoted because she was the best they had and is continually called upon for her expertise. I've known plenty of doctors who I wouldn't...

  13. Move to FL for schooling ?

    smallnurse10 replied to hevnbnd4's topic in California Nursing

    Making C's in school does not show that you are stupid and making A's doesn't mean that you are smart or that you won't endanger patients. My sister flunked OB and had to repeat it. She also made...

  14. Move to FL for schooling ?

    smallnurse10 replied to hevnbnd4's topic in California Nursing

    By all means move to Florida. Why wait around when you know you can get into school there. I moved from Reno to Las Vegas for nursing school. Reno was more competitive by far than Vegas and I knew...

  15. Tossing around a move to Alabama...any suggestions on where to live?

    smallnurse10 replied to justme1972's topic in Alabama Nursing

    I grew up in Auburn and it is a great place to live. It is growing rapidly, it has a great school system and the crime rate is low. My sister is a nurse manager at EAMC and loves it. It is close to...

  16. How are local hospital's are doing

    smallnurse10 replied to Kabin's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I don't know why people keep talking of coming to Las Vegas because there are no jobs here! One hospital just layed off a lot of nurses. The economy is horrible here, plus there are 8 nursing...

  17. Who's Hiring New Grads?

    smallnurse10 replied to chocolateskye's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I live in Las Vegas and hospitals are laying off workers and shutting down units. There are no jobs available for new grads. I have not graduated yet, but if I am unable to get a job (which I suspect)...

  18. Just wondering

    smallnurse10 replied to bscn_rn_10_years's topic in Nevada Nursing

    frustrated - if you are not interested in the entertainment or the casinos don't come to vegas. there are much nicer areas if the temperature and the outdoors interest you. northern arizona and...

  19. tuition/fees question in las vegas

    smallnurse10 replied to FLOBRN's topic in Nevada Nursing

    It is like that in every state. Nevada's tuition is lower than average so with the extra $2,000 it evens out. If she doesn't want to pay out of state tuition she should wait another semester to start...

  20. Just wondering

    smallnurse10 replied to bscn_rn_10_years's topic in Nevada Nursing

    I would not recommend coming here. The economy is horrible and you will have difficulty landing a job. If I had my way I would be out of here, but my husband is from here and that is not in the cards...

  21. ASU Nursing Program

    smallnurse10 replied to DDVpink89's topic in Arizona Nursing

    An RN is an RN whether they have an AS degree or a BS degree. Some hospitals pay a little extra for having a bachelors degree (a couple of dollars at most) but most pay the same. If you want to go...

  22. Nurse or Hairstylist?

    smallnurse10 replied to sassiebaz's topic in General Students

    I know plenty of hairdressers who make $40 to $60K per year. I personally don't feel that is great money after spending years building a clientele list. I work as a waitress in Las Vegas and make the...

  23. Nurse or Hairstylist?

    smallnurse10 replied to sassiebaz's topic in General Students

    I thought I would chime in on the discussion. I am a licensed cosmetologist in NV, although I do not work in the field anymore. I also have a bachelors degree and I just got accepted into nursing...

    smallnurse10 replied to ohmeowzer RN's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Okay, so I didn't get the call but my husband got the call for me! They called his cell phone this afternoon and left a message for me while he was in the movie theatre. I am so

  25. today is the big day for CSN hopefuls

    smallnurse10 replied to ohmeowzer RN's topic in Nevada Nursing

    It is a quarter till 5 and I have not received a call yet. I am so upset. I had 27 or 28 points depending on how they counted my english
