  5. CNA vs MA

    Yes, very helpful indeed. Thank you the information. Where I live, there is an establishment that offers CNA and CMA training tuition free (except for book and supply purchases of course) that run...
  6. Oh yes, I didn't think about the pre-requisites. The good thing about the program at One-Stop is that I don't believe there is a tuition (you only have to pay for textbooks and supplies). If you go to...
  7. Thank you! I wish you the best as well. :) And yes! Another friend of mine just told me about The Fountains. I will give them a shot as well. As for the LVN program at One-Stop, as far as I know they...
  8. I am very happy to hear that you are enjoying the training and are doing well! :) And yes, I hear you on the blessing of getting in considering the unemployment around here. I myself have been working...

  12. Thank you Time2BeMe. I will definitely check out Live Oak Manor and see if they have another one starting soon. Otherwise, I would be waiting until Summer of 2011 to take the course at One Stop. I...
  13. Are you a part of a study group? Or do you know someone who would be willing to sit down and help you out? I find that the best way to test yourself is to explain something (ie definition, thought...
  14. Introduction with some questions!

    Where do you plan on going to school to become a CNA/LPN? I know for some PA programs at certain schools, vocational, trade, or technical school courses will not satisfy the program's requirements...
  15. What RN school?

    I'm not a moderator or anything, but thought I'd let you know that this probably belongs in the CA Nursing Programs Discussion subforum. I'm not entirely sure where Inland Empire is located (Southern...
  16. Second languages? Third? Or more?

    Thanks for all the replies. I took three years of Spanish in high school, so I know all the basic phrases (but have forgotten a lot as well). Currently enrolled in Spanish 1 (which is pretty much...
  17. Second languages? Third? Or more?

    All you current nurses, have you ever found yourself in a position where you found it hard to understand or communicate with a patient (or their spouse, guardian, etc)? Currently, taking my pre-reqs...
  18. Anatomy Tutoring

    Great suggestion. I probably be doing that next semester if I don't get in.
  19. Starting pre-reqs this spring (Feb. 09)...

  20. Super Memory, Super Student?

    I haven't heard of the book, but a technique I have used in the past for memorization is by "reading aloud." That way, you are using visual, oral, and auditory techniques to take in the information...

    Congratulations :) I wish you the
  22. entering air force crna program

    I did a little research on a similar topic, but to my understanding, you will have to serve 3 (or so) years in the Air Force after completion of the program. For example, a student who goes through...

    No, sorry. I will be at Yuba, but just starting my prerequisites. Good
  25. Font size help?

    I know this is an older post, but I stumbled across one of your other posts still having this issue. Is the font at all websites you visit really small? Or just here at
