Since I've gone through training, I've soo badly wanted to work in a hospital. I am currently a Home Health Aide and have gained a year experience from this job. I was wondering what it takes to get hired at a hospital and what working in a hospital ...

DON'T TAKE OFF A SEMESTER! If you want to take a month long CNA course, switch your courses around to keep your time at the CNA program free up. Try to do both if you can.

try and get a job at a home health agency, they're always willing to hire ppl

I'm sorry you had such a crappy day! Like everybody else has said, give it some time and soon enough you'll have left over time to twiddle your thumbs and answer nurse calls! How long have you been a CNA? I've gotten used to being told nasy things by...

Thank you! Don't they take summer too?

I'm so happy, I was considering going to SCF for nursing, but it seems like FGCU's nursing program is a bit easier to get into, and it won't cost nearly as much. How many applicants does FGCU take per semester?

I've been wonderinag for quite some time now, is there a special reason scrubs are used instead of some other uniform? I can't really think of anythig you can do in scrubs that you couldn't do in jeans and a t-shirt. I know that scrubs give you that ...

I'm not currently a nurse, but I am a high school senior who is very interested in military nursing. I plan on going to FGCU for my BSN. I do have quite a bit of a weight problem and have had it all my life. I know I can do the sit ups required, and ...

for the weight loss portion, should i be doing the elliptical machine...or is there something wrong with that? does it actually have the correct number of calories lost? i know it's no good for running purposes, but for weight loss alone...i think i ...

Thanks, I guess I'll just bust my butt to lose weight then

I've become interested in becoming a military nurse and I have some questions about certain things that I couldn't find the answers to online. What is the danger of becoming a military nurse, do I have to be concerned that I could lose my life like a...

My brother currently has the option between taking a Medical assistant course or a Surgical Technologist course (each one takes 2 years to complete). In the medical assistant course he will be able to be certified in phelbotomy, radiology tech, and ...

Between you guys and the Student Doctor network, i've figured out some game plans in case being an MD is something i really want.

I'm currently a high school senior, finishing up my prerequisites to get into the local nursing program. I'm not saying that I'm using nursing as a spring board to become a doctor (i know that if i really wanted to be a doctor i should major in eithe...

I was looking on the USF medical school site and it looks like that only 1 gen chemistry and 1 organic chemistry is required...plus a physics and a biology(i know bio and chem are required for a BSN program) so that'd be only 2 extra classes? But eve...

Hi, I"m going to be moving to Kissimme FL before i graduate from high school and so my best bet for nursing would be to get my ASN from Valencia and then transfer to UCF for my BSN. i was just wondering how long the waitlist is for valencia. I read a...

How long is the waiting list for UCF do you know?

In my CNA program we had somebody who was almost in her 60's and then we had me who was 16 at the time. Big age gap...but she did just fine and was super healthy and could do everything that everybody else could. I don't know about the mental strain ...

I'm a CNA/HHA...I greatly dislike my current job somed days...other days it's a getaway...depends on the patient honestly. but I don't hate it...i merely put up with it. My question is...what direction is nursing going in exactly? A lot of poster hav...

I am a new CNA/HHA (just got certified and started working this year in SW FL) my high school offers a 2 year LPN program which i should be starting next year (my senior year) and finishing the year after i graduate. I've want to be a lawyer for the ...

EXACTLY! Same with CNA we were yelled at if we were sitting at the nurse's desk or roaming the halls looking for the CNA that was supposed to instruct us. So we usually just hid in a patient's room or waited for call lights...even then...it was the i...

Even being a Home Health Aide and going to patient's actual homes and spending time with them doesn't warrant making a real personal (true friend) connection with them. I don't make friends with the other employees at the nursing homes and though I'm...

Thank you, it's nice to know that i'm not totally different and alone on this course of action and thank you Kylea that makes a lot of sense now

Call it pompus all you like, but that was what i was really planning on doing for a while. That's exactly what I was planning in doing actually. Majoring in psych and then somehow supporting myself while i go beg for jobs before during and after law ...
