Hello to all, I have been thinking a lot about the Teri Schiavo case. As I am sure a lot of have been. Although I would like to get an advance directive, I am clueless about how to get this done. I have looked around online and most of the service...

OMG hbscott, you are my role-model! !

I am sure this has been asked here before so I am sorry for asking it again but what is the best/cheapest way to get nursing books. I just received my nursing book list for the summer and there are 16 books I need to get. For a grand total of $780 ...

Thank you all for your replies and suggestions. It seems tha campusi.com is the best one-stop website. So far I have managed to save over $160 compared to what I would have paid at my bookstore. And what's best is that only like 4-5 of those books...

LisaRN2B, I think you will do fine. Last semester I took A&P (Gross Anatomy), Micro, Nutrition, World Religions and Bioetchics. I got all "A"s except for the "B" I got in A&P. I am living proof that it can be done. Just make sure that y...

Acclerated BSN at Mount Saint Mary's College in Los Angeles, CA. I start this May. I'm excited and terrified.

Thank you Newgrad2005, The MSMC program out here is one year long. From May to May. It will be interesting to share notes and compare our experiences. Good luck to you and your husband.

I am just curious as to whom here is currently attending or will be attending an accelerated BSN program. I was recently accepted to the accelerated program at Mount St. Mary's in Brentwood, CA. I would love to get an idea as to what is in store fo...

To mitek and Cay: I too am a surgical tech (for the past 8 years) and would not recommend it as a career. Although, most of my colleagues seem content with being techs for the rest of their lives. I have changed career paths several times in those...

I personally cannot recommend any school in particular, but if you are looking for a list of schools, then here is a good website: http://www.certboard.org/crnfa/cert/rnfa_pgms.htm Hope that helps. jemride

We also have to date all fluids in our warmers and they must be disposed of after 72 hours in accordance with JACHO. It is something that JACHO looks out for during there inspection. They told us just yesterday that temperatures between 110 and 120...

Wow, orrnlori, I think you just described my dream job ! Thank you for you post. :blushkiss

Hello to everyone. I am a scrub tech and I am about to begin an Accelerated BSN program this May out here in California. My intentions at this point are to get my BSN and then become an RNFA. This is just the plan for now for I have only been expos...

Sup dudes, I am about to start an accelarated BSN program in May and I am excited and terrified all at the same time. I keep coming up with scenerios as to what I might face as a male student during the course. Scenerios that both encourage me and ...

This spring, the only pre-req I have to take is Human Physiology. Normally I wouldn't be sweating it except that it is by far the hardest Bio class offered at my school. I have yet to meet one person who gave me a sign of hope on acing that class. ...

I have not attended an ACE BSN program but will be doing so in May. I am sure that someone who has attended one will give you better insight, but here is what I think. I think that before you make a decision you should sit down and prioritize how y...

Thank you all for your advice, input and vote of confidence. You have a lot of good advice. I was wondering, for those of you that suggested the coloring books, is that for Physiology or Anatomy? I am just curious because I have already taken Anat...

Jan. 12th for me...Booooo!

Here is a good link that will help you find a comparison list of book sellers: http://www.campusi.com/ Hope that helps.

I am 29 and will start the Accelerated BSN program in May'04. So I should be 31 when I graduate. Or so I hope.

OMG lralex, that is the EXACT scenerio I am facing. Including the dates (almost). I am also a surgical tech who was working full time and was trying to get into a nursing program. I got so frustrated with schools giving me the run-around with prer...

I just received my acceptance letter and will begin the program in May. I will be attending Mount Saint Mary's accelerated program in Brentwood, CA . Wish me luck.

So I got to my mailbox never expecting that today would be the day. I had just gotten home from studying for my finals next week. It had been an unusually smooth day for me. Things were going well and then I went to my mailbox and it all changed. ...

It can't be USC's (University of Southern California) school of nursing you are refering to. They closed their nursing program a few years ago. Good thing we don't have a nursing shortage here in California....... N O T ! ! !

Thank you all so much for your suggestions. They are helpful and welcomed. I think I might just pick up that cliffnotes book on physio. As for the extracurricular I think I might do some algebra and DEFINETELY a gym class. I might need an gluteu...
