  1. ADN to RN-BSN vs. accelerated BSN & Columbia College vs. MU

    autumn_twilight replied to midmo's topic in General Nursing

    I would suggest, since you already have a bachelor's, that you go with an accelerated program. I'm not sure how old your science courses are, but if you go the ADN route I think they have to be less...

  2. needing some help

    autumn_twilight replied to autumn_twilight's topic in General Nursing

    No, not harsh: some of it I have heard before, some of it I've thought myself, some of it I didn't/don't want to admit. I've talked with my husband a few times since I originally posted, and I've...

  3. needing some help

    autumn_twilight posted a topic in General Nursing

    I feel odd asking this, but here goes. I need to talk to a counselor, specifically one experienced with the emotional/psychological abuse aspect of domestic violence in the st. louis/st. charles area....

  4. needing some help

    autumn_twilight replied to autumn_twilight's topic in General Nursing

    Thank you for the information. I didn't even think about the EAP, and I'm not sure why I didn't think about the counselors at school. I was able to get off work early yesterday, unfortunately I had to...

  5. Lpn schools in st.louis,missouri

    autumn_twilight replied to AlisRGSmith's topic in General Nursing

    LOL, yeah my eyes hurt. But, St Charles has an LPN program. Not sure how far out you're looking to travel for it. I personally am not going for my LPN and have no experience with the program. They...

  6. A couple of important questions regarding LPNS and PCA's

    autumn_twilight replied to Angela.RN2B's topic in General Nursing

    About how long did it take for them to respond once you had applied? I applied (it was only a couple weeks ago though) and I was wondering what their response time was. I had applied to Barnes as well...

  7. Financial Aid Denial???

    autumn_twilight replied to k&k'z mom's topic in General Nursing

    I think you might be able to appeal it, my husband was able to appeal his before, but it was due to being on academic probation/suspension, etc. He succeeded in appealing, but if he slacks off again,...

  8. Sanford Brown College of St. Peters, MO LPN to ADN RN

    autumn_twilight replied to lapriajanae1's topic in General Nursing

    To the OP: I believe St. Charles Comm College also has an LPN-RN bridge, since you mentioned Sanford Brown in St. Peters specifically. Check out www.stchas.edu. It'll probably cost you less than two...

  9. You know what I don't understand?

    autumn_twilight replied to serendipity123's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    While nursing is a primarily science degree, I am not a fan of science. In high school, I slept through BIO, almost failed CHEM, and stopped just short of dancing around the counselor's office when I...

  10. BJC St. Peters

    autumn_twilight posted a topic in General Nursing

    Just wondering if anyone works at BJC in St. Peters. I applied through their website for about seven or so positions, the earliest application being put in about 3 weeks back. I called HR today and...

  11. BJC St. Peters

    autumn_twilight replied to autumn_twilight's topic in General Nursing

    I was hoping that by getting a position at the hospital, I could have time to do the CNA class and still go to work. My current employer won't let me work anything other than 8-4:30, M-F. (We used to...

  12. St. Charles Community College Nursing Student

    autumn_twilight replied to ScccNursingStudent's topic in General Nursing

    From my understanding, they take the first 80 people who meet all the requirements for entry into the nursing program and THOSE people are selected to take the dosage calc. test. (They have a few...

  13. Would you work during nursing school if you didn't have to?

    autumn_twilight replied to justme1972's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would love to not have to. Unfortunately, my husband's self-esteem is so down from being laid off over a year ago and the few full-time job offers he's received isn't anything close to what he'd...

  14. Would you have done the same? Recieved wrong prescription.

    autumn_twilight replied to RN BSN 2009's topic in General Nursing

    I would follow up with the pharmacy manager at that store, so they can directly address it with that specific employee. Or maybe they'll call a dept meeting and address it with everyone. Sometimes...

  15. How long do you drive to work?

    autumn_twilight replied to LovePurple's topic in General Nursing

    I am not a nurse, (pre-nursing student) but my understanding from some other posts is that most places want to see that you made it through at least a year with your first employer as a nurse? You...

  16. For Fun - Things You Want to Buy Once You're a Nurse

    autumn_twilight replied to Multicollinearity's topic in General Students

    More or less in order.. 1. To catch up on my bills 2. To gradually (but not quickly enough, due to other wants) pay off any outstanding debt. 3. To buy my daughter the cool toys that she wants that I...

  17. What does your spring 2009 class schedule look like...?

    autumn_twilight replied to monkeykiss's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    In Spring of '04 I stopped going to my classes, so I'm retaking those, which would be Anthropology 102 and Soc 101. Then I'm taking BIO 100 as a pre-req for A&P and ENG

  18. How can I become a CNA in St. louis????

    autumn_twilight replied to L&DWannabe's topic in General Nursing

    St. Charles Community College offers a CNA class. From my understanding its a 12week long class that meets once a week on a rotating basis and once you complete all 12 classes you're done, not...

  19. Lol?

    autumn_twilight replied to emnicams's topic in General Nursing

    "little old lady" maybe? at least, that's what i thought it

  20. Writing RX as a nurse

    autumn_twilight replied to ale_kat03's topic in General Nursing

    I work in a pharmacy and I know we'll take verbal orders from the nurses at the Dr's office but it's always medications that were prescribed by the doctor. From my understanding, the doc is too busy...

  21. "Nursing students with C's are still nurses".. ?

    autumn_twilight replied to whiteoleander5's topic in General Students

    There are some things in life that cannot be "graded." Compassion, patience, kindness, stress-management and your ability to comfort and care for someone is not something that I think can be easily...

  22. What things do your family members do that drive the nurse in you nuts?

    autumn_twilight replied to blondy2061h's topic in General Nursing

    Last week my husband called me from work to say "I need you to create some kind of drug cocktail with whatever we've got in the medicine cabinet so I can sleep tonight." He's been having pain in his...

  23. 40 year old starting NS and taking the ACT

    autumn_twilight replied to powers2004's topic in General Nursing

    My best friends mother retook the ACT when she was 40 and didn't study just to "see how she would do." She scored a 32, and credits it to a combination of her various life experiences and good...

  24. I got reprimanded at work for not using a bra !

    autumn_twilight replied to Kath80's topic in General Nursing
