Anyone know of any hospitals in the OKC area that provide a good tuition assistance program?

I took a CNA course a few years ago and I knew immediately that that wasn't the area of nursing that I wanted to go into. I think If you were intending to be in LTC or geriatrics then CNA would be the way to go. I am like you and am thinking about be...

I am just getting started in October because I just moved here a week ago. I have to take some remedial classes before I can take microbio and prin of chem. I am taking Overview of nursing, Government, and psychology. I wish they would hurry up and p...

There are several online LPN-RN this is the first online straight LVN though.

Im hoping more places will follow their lead. I think it is a great idea.

How Plausible do you think it is to be an EMT and go to nursing school at the same time? I am considering taking the EMT basic course next semester while im still taking basics so that way I can work too. I am about to take a job as a CNA at a nursin...

Actually, I haven't even started my basics yet, but where Im going to nursing school it will be really easy to get into because they are letting anyone who even shows an interest into their nursing school!

This is just me venting about my mother!!! She has been a nurse for over 30 years and most of it a contract nurse. Lately she has been taking these contracts (that in the agreement either can discontinue at any time) and she works them for a week or ...

I am very sorry to hear of your bad luck. I hate that you are in debt because of something you where unable to control. Its sad that I am more empathetic to a complete stranger, than my own mother. After 30 years in the nursing industry she has noth...

Oh I was just saying that I can't wait to be a nurse because I know exactly what NOT to do with my money! Atleast one thing is for sure, even though she hasn't, I have definitely learned from her mistakes!!!

No, We are not close and we never have been. I really think she has some sort of mental illness. My grandmother on her side was bipolar schizophrenic and I think she might have it too. I am in a position where if I said something to someone about it,...

I have an interview to get a scholarship at a local hospital on friday!!! I need some help! I have no idea what they are going to ask me. What are some good answers I should have prepared? Also what are some important questions I should ask?

Anyone taken the LPN course at Francis Tuttle OKC? I am considering taking the Individualized Study Plan and just wondering if anyone has gone this route?? Thanks Guys:nurse:

Just wondering what it was like? Do you feel you received the training you need? Did you go fulltime, part time, or ISP? Where do you do your clinicals at?

Ok so I have come across a couple of companys that hire "travel cna's" I had never even heard of this until I just happened to stumble across it. Has anyone ever done this before? If so whats it like and do you know of any good staffing companys?? Th...

I am just curious what all does Home Health Nursing entail as a RN? Do you have to do any of the "dirty" work? What exactly are your duties? Thanks guys!

Just wanting some pro's and con's of working in the Emergency Room? I am just now starting my prereqs for nursing school so I am researching what specialties interest me most, ER being one of them. Thanks guys!

You will probably have to have so many pre reqs done before you can even apply. Does the nursing program that you plan on attending go on a points system? My suggestion would be to take as many co-reqs as you can now too (thats what I am doing) becau...

Anyone know of any Hospitals or Nursing Homes that will put you through LPN school in the Oklahoma City area? I was planning on attending Nursing school to become a Registered nurse, but it doesn't look like that is going to happen because I cant rec...

I have a friend that was going to platt LPN-RN program and she fell just a little bit behind (there was a number of things going on in her life- Work, kids, and her husband was out of state working on top of going to school) and they dropped her out...

I just had my baby last month, and she doesn't get over half of her support from me because I am not working right now. Hopefully I can get a dependency status change!
