  1. Hondros in Cincinnati

    animal1993 replied to mitchsa's topic in Ohio Nursing

    Hi Catrat! The last thing that I heard (West Chester, anyway) was that they were trying to get all of the financial aid by the end of July. Hopefully, it will be the same for

  2. The Josie King story

    animal1993 replied to ChristyRN2009's topic in General Nursing

    We had to watch the video a few months ago, and I couldn't stop crying. My heart was completely broken for this family. I agree with mmulligan23. There was absolutely no excuse for the nurses...

  3. UC Raymond Walters clinicals

    animal1993 replied to JTwildone05's topic in Ohio Nursing

    Hi! I attend Hondros College (Cincinnati). We actually have clinicals starting in our first term, so we don't have to get on a waiting list after we've completed our classes. For the first two terms...

  4. Mini Rant about Unruly Kids

    animal1993 replied to nnicolee's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would have to agree. I'm sure it wasn't this child's intention to splash you or to potentially ruin an expensive book. She simply saw the pool and was ready to have fun. It's really not fair for...

  5. Hondros in Cincinnati

    animal1993 replied to mitchsa's topic in Ohio Nursing

    Hello again! I am about to start my third term in the LPN program. As far as I know, the only way to go to another school to get your RN would be to graduate, sit for the NCLEX (and actually get your...

  6. Bohecker College in Ohio

    animal1993 replied to deedah72's topic in Ohio Nursing

    Well, I am very sorry that this has happened to you. Have you or any of the other students discussed your frustrations with administration? If not, that may be where you should start. I don't know...

  7. Bohecker College in Ohio

    animal1993 replied to deedah72's topic in Ohio Nursing

    I've been attending Hondros (Cincinnati) since Jan., and I haven't had any of the experiences that your friend speaks of. Do you know what term she started in? BTW, it is NOT your fault that your...

  8. Hondros in Cincinnati

    animal1993 replied to mitchsa's topic in Ohio Nursing

    Mitchsa-- I currently attend Hondros (Cincy). You have to keep in mind that there is ALWAYS going to be something that you or someone else doesn't like about ANY school! Overall, I have been pretty...

  9. Open Mouth-Insert Foot!

    animal1993 replied to greeniebean's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Sorry, no stories yet, but thanks for the laugh! :) (If it makes you feel any better, I could see myself saying some of the same things some

  10. see thru scrubs

    animal1993 replied to sparky99's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    We wear Landau scrubs for clinicals, and I haven't had any problems with them being see-through. I would recommend trying nude-colored undergarments. (Even under your Cherokee scrubs.) You'd be...

  11. Was this ethical?

    animal1993 posted a topic in General Students

    I overheard a fellow student talking to our clinical instructor about whether or not a certain patient had ever taken his meds. (He is notorious for refusing them.) When our instructor asked about it,...

  12. Was this ethical?

    animal1993 replied to animal1993's topic in General Students

    I'm not sure if this resident has a physician's order in place for med refusals, and neither was my clinical instructor or the student in question. My problem is that neither one of them bothered to...

  13. Was this ethical?

    animal1993 replied to animal1993's topic in General Students

    Morte-- I think that is what bothers me the most. (For him, as well as the other residents.) I realize that there are only so many hours in a day, but I watch nurses, CNA's, and other staff rush...

  14. Was this ethical?

    animal1993 replied to animal1993's topic in General Students

    Thank you all so much for your replies. You've all brought up some interesting points. I probably should have been a little more specific in my OP. The patient in question is not a dementia...

  15. Nursing student/parent needs time mgmt. advice

    animal1993 replied to k5steve's topic in General Students

    Hi Steve! I have a 3yo daughter and a 1yo son, so I know how difficult it can be to juggle family and study time. (Especially since my husband is out of town most weeks.) I think being organized can...

  16. Tasting blood....Can this be true?

    animal1993 replied to PopeJane3rd's topic in General Nursing

    I agree. I would also like to add that, like me, you probably have a highly developed sense of smell, which allows you to smell things completely differently (and more strongly) than other people. I...

  17. anyone going to Hondros?

    animal1993 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hello all! This is my very first post. I was wondering if anyone is or has been enrolled at Hondros College in Cincinnati? I am starting there in Jan. and would love to hear your opinions and...

  18. Venting about BON involvement in DUI

    animal1993 replied to Nursing NCO's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I am a VERY firm believer that you either don't drink, or you make sure someone who hasn't been drinking will be the one behind the wheel. I told my own husband that if I ever even suspected he was...

  19. Human Nature Question

    animal1993 replied to sparky99's topic in General Students

    It's a real shame that adults have to act in such a way, but it happens all the time. I suppose that some people fear that they may lose their job at any moment, due to economy-driven cutbacks, and...

  20. Stethoscopes for Clinicals

    animal1993 replied to JumpingIn's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    My husband gave me the Littman Master Cardio for our anniversary, and I cannot believe the difference it has made. I am able to hear with perfect clarity even if there is a conversation going on...

  21. Shaving balloons?

    animal1993 replied to Scooter321's topic in General Students

    I just finished my first term of school, and we were taught that most facilities now use electric clippers now as a safety precaution, so there was no need for us to practice on balloons. I'm from...

  22. New student here at Hondros

    animal1993 replied to Timustang04's topic in Ohio Nursing

    Chinadoll74-- I'm sorry. I hope everything works out for you.

  23. Hondros College of Nursing - Input??????

    animal1993 replied to adie0321's topic in Ohio Nursing

    Hi Catrat! I tried to PM you, but it wouldn't let me into your page for some reason. Different instructors will give you access to your syllabus, etc. at different times. (If Columbus is anything...

  24. Hondros College of Nursing - Input??????

    animal1993 replied to adie0321's topic in Ohio Nursing

    Hello Adie! THANK YOU!!! It was definitely a stressful week, and I was glad to see it go! I'm not sure what kind of book to recommend to you for the medical terms. I had purchased a HESI study guide...

  25. Hondros College of Nursing - Input??????

    animal1993 replied to adie0321's topic in Ohio Nursing

    Hello catrat! You're more than welcome! I would recommend that you read the first couple of chapters in your Bio book, unless you're already a Bio expert! :) I think you'll just get bogged down and...
