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 than 5 years old (or the schools out here are that ...

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 walked away from it with the sense that he doesn't thi...

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. I've been in a marriage for four years that has d...

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 replace my tires and take care of a few other thi...

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 also have an LPN-RN bridge if you choose to continue....

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 over 2 months ago and still haven't heard anythin...

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, no more PELL for him. Besides, it sounds as if you...

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 grand total. And in regards to Sanford Brown...I ju...

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 was told I wouldn't have to take another science c...

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 she told me that if I "matched their skill set" then...

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 be open 7-7, but they wouldn't allow me to do 4 10...

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 more, maybe 10-20, other people take it as well to cov...

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 like to do (it's all commision work, which is what h...

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 things are skipped in training. Sometimes mgmt assume...

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 already know there's some miscommunication issues wit...

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 never had. 4. To buy a BRAND NEW WARDROBE!!! I hav...

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 101.

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 entirely sure though. http://www.stchas.edu/class_sched/n...

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

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 to go through ALL the RX requests so the nurses tak...

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 assigned a "passing score." I know people who are so...

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 jaw that comes and goes, and has been keeping him u...

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 guestimation. She isn't a math wizard either. a 19/20 is ...

LOL!!! This is a hilarious thread! It's made it so much easier to keep a smile on my face at work...and I love the comments by 09S=BSN as well, but this one here takes the cake!

I've personally known a Will Williams. I used to work in a business where I saw a LOT of wierd names, but the only ones that I can remember are Orangejello (but no Lemonjello) , Queen Gaylord and Mai Ho.
