Thanks, that is reassuring to hear. Like you, I already have experience as a PCA and have a previous bachelor's degree in another field. Plus my instructor at CSCC is helping me get a job at OSU now...

For those of you who applied to the OSU internship programs and got a job...do you have ADN degrees or BSN degrees? Do you know if your newly hired coworkers have ADNs or BSNs? I'm concerned about...

Guess I'm not the only night owl here! Thanks so much for the info. Although I'm naturally still worried about the application, I feel much better after having heard your story. I have a similar...

msteeleart, Would you mind sharing some of your grades and test scores with us? I plan on applying this fall for the spring 2011 class and I'm just wondering if I have what it takes to get in. Would...

Agreed. I'm taking Chem 113 now and haven't had a general chem course since 2002, but I find this course more pleasant than expected. Still, it worries me that the influx of 2nd career students are...

I'm curious...if you already work at Mt. Carmel and can take advantage of those tuition benefits, then why not just go to school there? Isn't the accelerated 2nd degree program only 13 months

Thanks for the great responses! Unfortunately I am not willing to move Cleveland. Not a big fan of that city and my fiancee will be starting classes at OSU in the fall anyway. I love and miss Columbus...

I agree about the advisers! I spent 1 semester at UT, 1 year at OSU-Lima and the remainder at OSU in Columbus for my first degree. Never did I have such a problem with advisers! When I called during...
Hey all...I've been searching the forum but can't find a direct answer. For those of you in the online track at Columbus State Community College or those who have recently applied for the online track...
Wow, thank you ALL so much for the kind words and reassurance. After reading a few replies yesterday after I posted, I finally broke down and cried because I felt like I never had a chance to deal...
I am a CNA on a medical/surgical floor and am in dire need of clarification (from a nurse please) of what just happened at work last night. I work nights, came on the floor and got to work right away....
I realize this post is a little old, but for anyone coming across it looking for advice, here's another tip. When using the rolling technique to get the pt on the bedpan, always roll the pt away from...
