    ManyQuestions replied to dsy89's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Here at my local community college you don't need A's to get into nursing. They require a 2.5 in prerequisites and that's it. You may not get into your first choice 4 year program, but if you can get...

    ManyQuestions posted a topic in Nursing Career

  10. Can new grads work in ER?

    ManyQuestions posted a topic in General Nursing

    I'm just starting nursing school. I've read some posts that make it sound like the Emergency department of a hospital is difficult to get into or not advised for new grads. Is this true? Why? One...

    ManyQuestions replied to ManyQuestions's topic in General Nursing

    I'm putting on my flame-retardent suit now...here goes... I appreciate what nurses and especially what nurse aides do. If I'm ever in the hospital for more than a day, I hope I get a very caring,...

    ManyQuestions replied to ManyQuestions's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks for the career advice regarding nursing and ADLs, y'all. I guess I just needed to hear it a few more times. I guess it's time to take a closer look at that Radiology Tech training program,
