    cookderosa replied to RescueGrrl211's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I'm pleasantly surprised that they are so supportive of lady partsl twin delivery. That's not the climate here. Here, she would be considered very high risk and scheduled for a c/s, I have no doubt...

    cookderosa replied to adoptionacres's topic in Ob/Gyn

  4. Help fast!

    cookderosa posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have a very very hard decision to make, and it doesn't help that I have to make it this week! I was accepted into one of the local nursing programs, but it wasn't my first choice.....do I enroll,...

    cookderosa replied to cookderosa's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    >> I think I have a good chance. They have an AM program and a PM program. The AM program admits 2x/yr while the PM only once- so in any given year there might be some variation. Grade-wise I'm...

    cookderosa replied to bexlee's topic in General Nursing

    > Not specifically in IN, but at least in IL, there are no prereqs for EMT training. We have credit and non credit programs here too. I'd think you could just go sign up!

    cookderosa replied to twentytenRN's topic in General Nursing

    No, it's all good because you don't have a problem and you can stop whenever you want to

  9. Master Program Right After Nursing School Possible?

    cookderosa replied to tostos21's topic in General Nursing

    >> Very very true. As a community college teacher for 17 years, I understand this concept too well. One thought I had, is that the direct entry MSNs sometimes have a part/full option. For...

  10. Master Program Right After Nursing School Possible?

    cookderosa replied to tostos21's topic in General Nursing

    cookderosa replied to NYMOM83's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    >> Is that true?? When you consider that an ADN is going to cost about $8000 and an accelerated program can cost $35,000 I'd really want to know if this is true. I know i'm not the op, but...

  12. I have a B.S. degree, what would it take to become a CRNA?

    cookderosa replied to NYMOM83's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  13. I have a B.S. degree, what would it take to become a CRNA?

    cookderosa replied to NYMOM83's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm not sure why, but for some reason there is a myth that you need a BSN to become a CRNA. This gets asked all the time, and people keep saying you need a BSN. It's just not true. MANY programs I...

    cookderosa posted a topic in Post Graduate Students

    cookderosa replied to girl.w/useless.b.a.'s topic in Connecticut Nursing

    cookderosa replied to papapump's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    cookderosa replied to cookderosa's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    cookderosa posted a topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I have a few questions for CRNAs, specifically I'm looking for critique about barriers to admission. 1. Is an online BSN looked down upon by admission committees? Maybe a better question would be...

    cookderosa replied to sarailyse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
