First off we are known as an ADN nursing program but we are designed as a BSN program meaning we are getting extra for the amount of money we are paying. As of right know I am taking 2 classes NU110 and NU110 Lab, usually no more then 2 or 3 classes. I don't take and don't like Online classes. The program is 27 months. Passing is "70" It is 27 months because it is general-ed and nursing program. What LPN school did you got to?? Our Nursing coordinator is wonderful you will love her, she works as a nursing instructor for USF, Galen, and as a part time nurse for a lawyers office.

someone needs to step in before the subject gets shut down please remeber to be respectful everyone is allowed to have their opinions. getting back to the point all i want to do is help people. i did the patience thing and waited 4 years olny to be rejected because of my 3.49 gpa so here comes itt. school is what you make of it, you know. we actually have a lot of good teachers who also work at the universities as nursing instructors, we have army nurse, so i feel very confident in what i have. in my opionio all schools are for profit, cc try to nickel and dime you for everything if you ask me. at my school almost everything is included...free so there you have it :redpinkhe:redpinkhe

Hi I am happy to here that I attend the program in Tampa, Florida. Yeah the first semester is boring the seond semester is where some action is hopefully we can keep in touch

ongratulations I still have 18 monthsPray for me:lol2:

Thank you for sharing I have been battling depression since highschool. I will be 24 this year and this feels like the worst year of all the time that I have this I am partly scared and ashamed I want to see a therapist but am afraid that some how it will get out.....how can I be a nusre and be having this feeling of just sadnees

:uhoh3::uhoh3::uhoh3: I come here only to give my opinion if you don't like it don't comment and dont get nasty very uncalled for:down:

:uhoh3::uhoh3::uhoh3::uhoh3::uhoh3:

I started in dec I am already an LPN so I had credits that were transferable cost? it depends in florida it is $50,000 but I pay 1/2 that cause I didnt need pre-reqs which is what other schools are like here I like it so far I mean it still a lot of work and studying that must be done. You have to be really motivated to do this u know.

Thanks I applied to HCC had a 3.01 GPA needed at least a 3.5 GPA up to 3.9 GPA and at that exact time I saw the sign for a brand new nursing school just my luck right

FAMU where is it? Florida? How Much? I am currently enrolled in ITT Nursing Program Tampa Florida

good luck and dont worry I have a full time job and I really don't know how much longer I can truly work and school like this. Can we keep in touch I would love to know how it is over there and I will do the same for you!

I am a LPN in RN school living with herpes i remeber literally driving myself crazy deciding whether I should become a nurse, at the end someone told me " are you gonna be having sex with you patients? (lol)...you answer! dont be fooled keep that info private because it is YOUR business nothing to do with ethics if you ask me. Well if its ethical will you tell your patients you have herpes......probably.....definitely ....not! Be a good nurse, practice universal precautions and you will be ok... in a way it makes me more aware and more safe ...I dont know if you can unnderstand but if u have more questions dont be shy!

I started the brand new first nursing ITT program in tampa florida In Dec 2009 I agree the first quater was boring but now we are doing the cna stuff and actually getting into the field. I am already a LPN so it sucks that we couldnt get exempt from the CNA stuff but oh well and for all thoses people who say that ITT is a a joke listen an RN is an RN gimme a break! Its all about how u present your self , be confident, be safe eventually ITT will have its reputation built by us nurses not by what others think.The amount of homework we get is ridiculous but that is everywhere ....if you have anymore questions please feel free to ask.....lol

Hey I was always taught that repetition is a Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarvelous thing!

It was not the RN but when I took the PN I felt like :omy::urgycld::thnkg: so you are the first person I have ever heard say that before!

Thanks for the encouragement:bluecry1:

ok, i am a lpn and got my first job in an outpatient mental health clinic near where i live, i applied saturday and they called me on monday morning, excited right:yeah:right, well sort of, i am scared out of my brain. i get orientation on tuesday, so my question for you guys is what question should i ask the nurse who will be orienting me. please list any question that pop up in your head. i will literaly be the only nurse working in the clinic, so that is scary for me, it is only part time 3 days a week. my main job will be giving injections and working with the doctors. anything you guys can think of please post it for me. i have already started a binder for organization, also started pharm card on every psychiatric drug availiable so that i will have them on hand:nurse:. please post all questions!thank you in advance, between you and me i am kinda shocked i got hired......i have really no experience, but i guess i have to start some were,right! beleive me i am really excited!

Well if you won your case, why not state you left voluntarily? I don't see why bring up something that ended on a good note if you ask me, I mean did they actually fire you?

I don't understand how did they alter you documentation (R U talking about the shredding, cause I think that is something completely different)?

I am so sorry:scrying: to hear that but don't give up I know it is easier said then done, but just sit down let your brain relax and try again

In FL CNA $10-$12 Hourly PN $16-$20 Nursing Home RN $25 Hospital

I feel so sorry for her it has also gone to her colon

Well this is depressing, i am a LPN and am trying to find a job and realize that it is not that easy, where all my Floridians at??? WHAT.....WHAT!!:D

I also remember this young woman who had to have one on one care while in the hospital when I was doing my clinical rotation, by looking at her you would never know that she was psychotic. My thought and prayers are with your whole team!

That is where I am trying to get work right now, long term care
