Thanks for letting me know Chechy about CHW. Amanda

Congratulations Chechy. Just wondered was it via Mercy Gilbert interview you had? or normal waitlist (MCC)? Thanks Amanda

Just wanted to be the first to say congratulations. It seems RSAA is a good recommendation, so I will definitely be signing up with them hopefully for the August 4th day class. Congrats again. Amanda

hi just want to say good luck for tomorrow. i am hoping to start my cna program at rsaa in august. as we are moving from england to mesa on the 22nd june i will have to see if they have any places left for the august program. any feedback about rsaa i would be grateful. thanks

hi hyacinth here! thats my favourite comedy to watch, have it on dvd, to take to arizona! you are someone i admire, to start school at 52 and sit rn exams! if i cannot get onto bsn program, i will go local community college route, and after block 2 i think you can take exams for lpn and continue to rn. good luck for monday:yeah: hyacinth aka amanda

Definitely medical school, is not the direction for me. Thanks Amanda

Hi Suzanne Sorry not for replying sooner, had to go to London at the last minute. (london is 220 miles from where I live now). Thanks for your info, you noted in a later thread that I will be moving to Arizona City, it is 50 miles from phoenix. I looked up BSN, the nearest would be University of Phoenix, but could not get any details. I did note that other states, are asking for pre requesisites, so will try to find out more info. To do the 2 year Nursing degree, there is a local community college about 20 miles away, which is called Central Arizona College, that has this program, will need to do CNA, Pre requ etc Thanks for all your help. Amanda

Thanks for the encouragement this is what I need. Amanda

Thanks Suzanne for the reply. I should have mentioned in my original message, that we are halfway through applying for spousal visa (hubby dual citizen Uk & US). The visa will be issued in London with a greencard. Thanks for info on BSN I will now look into this. Thanks for moving. Amanda

Have been reading this forum for the last 3 months. My situation is currently still in England, hoping to move to Arizona (Arizona City) next April/May 2009. I am married with a toddler of 17 months. I would like to train to be a RN, but i am 39 now and by the time I start (if I get in) nursing school i will be 43 (got to do CNA, prerequisites etc and meet residency guidelines one year) now be HONEST is this too late, do employers want people of this age? My education has been in England, do not have degree, so will start at the bottom. I have worked in doctors offices for 19 years from receptionist to manager. I have qualifications in Reflexology and Holistic Massage. I have always wanted to be a nurse, but got sidetracked years ago with earning money to live! Any advice you can give would be appreciated, is there anything I can start studying whilst still in England and currently a stay at home mom? i have made general enquires with CAC as this will be my local college but your advice would be greatly appreciated. My other alternative would be a Certified medical assistant (only because of age). i would like to stay in health. Thanks Amanda
