  1. Top 3 worst halloween costume to wear at work.

    I have a set of authentic black and white striped jail scrubs that I've always been tempted to wear if I ever work on Haloween. I have the pink underwear from Sheriff Joe too. BTW, no, I didn't earn them!
  2. Apollo College RN Program

    Hi Linzylou, I answered your questions in a private email. :)
  3. Apollo College RN Program

    They would LOVE for you to begin in the first semester because each semester costs at least $7000. Save your money, and if you're set on attending Apollo, just wait until they have space for you in the third semester. They most likely will make you ...
  4. The attire debate - what should nurses wear?

    Just MHO, I had several hospital stays in the nineties as a 20 year old. The first one was to correct a CHD. At the time, I assumed that anyone entering my room wearing scrubs was an RN. I didn't know that they were anything from RNs, housekeeping, C...
  5. Apollo College RN Program

    I actually liked the clinical sites from Apollo. I stopped in the middle of the program and got my LPN because I'm in debt up to my.....well, you know. If you have the time, I'd recommend attending one of the community colleges. You'll save sooooo...

    hi dcriddle, i answered you privately. [color=#00bfff]
  7. BIO 201 at Rio Salado

    that's interesting. in '07 when i took bio 202 through rio, we were instructed to write our essays in our own words, even though the instructor knew the information came from the textbooks. we were never required to cite our sources. however, ever si...
  8. BIO 201 at Rio Salado

    i took both of those classes online through phoenix college. i took my bio 202 through rio, and it was very frustrating. i've siad before in other posts, is seemed as if all of the material was put together through different sources, and didn't match...

  10. Roll Call, LPN to RN Students!!!

    Hi everyone! :specs: I've been an LPN for about a year now. I've not been able to find employment in the field though because I'm lacking in experience. I applied for advanced placement at Gateway CC's program in Phoenix last week. Chasing this RN ...

  12. New and currently enrolled at Rio Salado

    Have you called any places to see if they're hiring CNAs? If the are, then that would be a good route to take in the meantime. I've had my LPN for almost about 8 months, and I've not been able to get hired anywhere because I have no experience. I wa...
  13. BIO 201 at Rio Salado

    Good God! I know how all of you feel! I took BIO 202 at Rio in the Fall of '07. It was sooo stressful! I've said in another thread here that is seems that the class was put together from so many different sources, and the material just didn't seem...
  14. How many semesters did YOU wait???

    Thanks PCStudent! I guess I'm not in the system yet. I'll call first thing Monday to get some info. I've always loved PC, and I would love to attend the nursing program there. It's so diverse, and it doesn't look like a desert. I did my prereqs t...
  15. How many semesters did YOU wait???

    PCStudent, Yes, I'm thinking that it wouldn't be a bad idea to brush up on drug calculations skills while I wait. I'm an LPN, and I still haven't found a job in that field, so I definitely have some time on my hands. As for Spanish classes, I HIGH...
  16. How many semesters did YOU wait???

    I just applied for advanced placement (3rd block) at Gateway on May 7. On my application, there weren't any choices as to where I was willing to go, so I wonder how that works? I haven't spoken to the DON yet. I'm hoping there's a spot for me in a su...
  17. New and currently enrolled at Rio Salado

    When I took my BIO 202 at Rio, I was sooo stressed out with the way it was set up. It was as if the class was put together from many different sources that didn't match up with each other. I was always in contact with the instructor venting my frustr...
  18. Any males out there tired of the drama?

    Yes, I found that hilarious too! It's good to laugh!
  19. Do you know if any hospitals in Phoenix are hiring new grads???

    Holy cow! This is really scary! I'm an LPN and I've been looking and applying for LPN jobs for over 8 months now, and I've not received one call back. They all want experience. Yesterday, I applied to Gateway for advanced placement to the RN pr...
  20. New and currently enrolled at Rio Salado

    I just finished NUR 187 at Rio last week. I'm applying for advanced placement to the program today. I've taken 5 classes at Rio so far, and one thing that I really like about Rio is the instructors. ALL of them have been wonderful! I'm an LPN rig...
  21. Advantage for Speaking Spanish?

    I would say that if you can handle the workload, go ahead and take some classes. I'm bilingual and live in the Southwest. Whenever I was in clinicals, I was being pulled in every direction to translate for pts. See if a community college in your a...
  22. Any males out there tired of the drama?

    Okay, at the risk of making my team angry, I'll say this::flowersfo I'm a female, and I absolutely know what you mean about the drama. When I was in nursing school, I mostly kept to myself because I found that the ladies would mostly complain about ...

    I have a few of those now, and they're really a lot of fun! Better hurry though.:wink2:
  24. For Fun - Things You Want to Buy Once You're a Nurse

    For years, I wanted a Hummer2, but that's out of the question now. I want to buy a classic muscle car, and maybe a new Mustang. More important, I would like to take care of my mom as she has been a great deal of support for me mentally and financial...
