  1. Real 911 calls.....

    mfrancisco replied to RosesrReder's topic in Nursing Humor

    That is unbelievable!!! I worked for San Francisco 911 for three years, and we always had to send the police out for any child that would call. We would even have to send them out for a hang up if...

  2. thinking about a career change

    mfrancisco replied to mgandrews's topic in California Nursing

  3. I m in big trouble! I think I failed my drug screen

    mfrancisco replied to alex68's topic in General Nursing

    That's still vindictive to say he should have been busted. I guess some people have never, ever made one mistake in their whole entire life. I don't smoke either, not just because of my job now or...

    mfrancisco replied to Christie RN2006's topic in General Nursing

    mfrancisco replied to ANEWME's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congrats to everyone that is doing so well! I am taking Chem and Anatomy (the school I go to offers Anatomy and Physio separately). I bombed the first test and I just got a 90% on my second midterm...

    mfrancisco replied to Adams_Mommy_07's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I also have PCOS and Sjogren's Syndrome as well. Please try not to worry. I know it's easier said than done, but don't let it affect the full course load that you are taking right now. I am also...

    mfrancisco replied to TCLA's topic in General Nursing

  8. Nursing School

    mfrancisco replied to Aimee0106's topic in General Nursing

    I agree about not putting up with any crap. A quick piece of advice...any man who does not support you while you are going to school is not worth it. Also, if you are planning on staying with the...

    mfrancisco replied to engima2174's topic in California Nursing

    Hi everyone, Thanks for the great info. I checked the ca dept of public health, and Fast Track is accredited. Thanks for the info on Kaiser. City College in SF also has a program and so does the...

  10. Specialty with low/least stress?

    mfrancisco replied to PAERRN20's topic in General Nursing

    I don't blame you for asking. Some nurses have health problems, or have a stressful home life, so they may be looking for a "low stress" position. I am not a nurse yet, but a very good friend of...

  11. Im so scared to become a nurse!! Please help???

    mfrancisco replied to Misslady113's topic in General Nursing

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

    Hi Rachelle, I heard NCP is really good. For me, the problem is that it's only full time, and the campuses are in South SF and Hayward. I have to take physio during the summer, so there is now way I...

  13. Hospital Unit Clerk?

    mfrancisco replied to lillian20's topic in General Nursing

    I understand that you want to help your family, but, I think in the long run, you will benefit more by going into nursing. That being said, I am not sure what state you are in or what the pay is, but...

  14. A & P: I...Am I the only one that feels completely lost?

    mfrancisco replied to Holly5477's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'd like to know, too. I bought my book new, and it came with the histology insert, but I didn't get a CD either. I do have access to the website. Is there anywhere we can purchase the CD, and I...

  15. A & P: I...Am I the only one that feels completely lost?

    mfrancisco replied to Holly5477's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    AAHHH...very interesting. I was wondering about that. I just had my first midterm this past week, and don't think I did that great, and studied a ton! I was wondering after the test if it would...

  16. A & P: I...Am I the only one that feels completely lost?

    mfrancisco replied to Holly5477's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am not taking Anatomy online, but we are using the Marieb book as well. It is very overwhelming. We just had our first test last week, and I studied a lot, but I know I didn't do that well....
