  1. Lansing Community College questions

    JenW posted a topic in Michigan Nursing

  2. Really want to be a nurse

    JenW replied to parris's topic in Michigan Nursing

    If you are talking about the Microbiology lab at LCC (that isn't offered at MSU), that lab isn't required before you apply. You can take it after you are admitted to

    JenW replied to JenW's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Just in case anyone out there is interested, I did find out a little bit of info about the part-time program at LCC. They try to offer the classes/clinicals starting around 3:00 in the afternoon, and...

  5. Schools with no wait?

    JenW replied to kellia's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I'll be applying to Lansing Community College. They don't do a wait list but rather a point system as well. I should have enough points to get in right away. http://www.lcc.edu if you want more...

  6. Lansing Community College

    JenW posted a topic in Michigan Nursing

    Hi everyone! I'm just wondering if anyone is in or has graduated from the nursing program at Lansing Community College. I just completed and mailed my selective admissions app and will be taking a...

  7. CNA training

    JenW posted a topic in Michigan Nursing

    OK. It's me again. Is there anywhere in the Lansing area (I would even travel a little if I had to) that offers CNA training? I'm seeming to hit a road block here as far as this area is

  8. Ingrown toenail......ouch!

    JenW replied to IloveSnoopy's topic in General Nursing

    I've been there too. I had them on both big toes and they got very infected 'cause I didn't want to see a doctor. Ended up going and haven't had any problems since. Easy, quick procedure, and the...

  9. Too Posh to push?? Thoughts please!

    JenW replied to FutureNurse2005's topic in General Nursing

    I'm 37 weeks along now with my second child. I had it pretty easy with my first delivery. Although I don't agree with the reasoning, I definitely am having more and more days where I WISH I could...

  11. What about Phlebotomy..

    JenW replied to trish820's topic in General Nursing

    I checked with HR at Sparrow and you are correct. They will train phlebotomy techs on-the-job, and their website has lots of openings available. Thanks for the suggestion! I would like to find some...

  12. What about Phlebotomy..

    JenW replied to trish820's topic in General Nursing

    AnnaN5 - I'm also in Lansing. Do you know of anywhere you can get training in Phlebotomy besides at LCC? LCC is great because you can get trained with just one class, but I don't want to wait until...

  13. child care problems

    JenW replied to marshalbc77's topic in General Nursing

    Daycare is so frustrating. Unfortunately, the situation you are running into is pretty common. My daughter has been in a daycare facility and home daycares and the situation has always been pretty...

  14. whats the weather like????

    JenW replied to jeanna's topic in General Nursing

    Well, here in Michigan it's actually been warmer this week than the last few weeks. We've been in the 20's. However, yesterday we got a HUGE snowstorm. Temperature in the 20's or huge amounts of...

  15. Confused

    JenW replied to Wookie's topic in General Nursing

    I'll be 29 when I start the nursing program (assuming all goes as planned), so don't worry about the age. I've applied for the ADN program at my local community college. LPN takes one year, RN takes...

    JenW replied to B.S.Psych's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    We are in similar situation. I have a bachelors degree in Anthropology and I work in the insurance industry. My GPA from undergrad was around a 2.8 or 2.9. I was originally a pre-med major in...

  17. PDA with digital voice recorder

    JenW posted a topic in General Nursing

    I was looking at the old threads regarding PDA recommendations. (I'm hoping to get one within the next month or so.) I got a lot of great suggestions. My question is this: someone mentioned...

    JenW replied to RNKLTYM's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I don't have any suggestions, but I'm also preparing just in case I don't get accepted to the program I applied for. I will have all the classes completed that I can take before admission, so I might...

  19. Student Nurse Recruiting

    JenW posted a topic in Michigan Nursing

    I've read a lot on this message board about student nurses being recruited by hospitals and offered tuition reimbursement, etc. very early in their nursing education. I was just curious about...

  20. PDA with digital voice recorder

    JenW replied to JenW's topic in General Nursing

    JenW replied to SCNuttyMeg's topic in Cardiac

    (Excuse the lack of technical terms in this post, as I'm not yet a nursing student.) My husband was just admitted to the hospital this past weekend. He was complaining that he was having some kind of...

  22. Need some advice on accelerated RN or second degree programs

    JenW replied to balticbreeze's topic in General Nursing

    I'm also considering one of these programs. At this point, I'm going to go for the ADN program at my local community college, but I would be finished MUCH quicker if I did an accelerated or...

  23. Wow.. You people must really hate nursing!!

    JenW replied to PattiAnn237's topic in Nursing Career

    Believe it or not, I've found that reading the negative stuff is just as helpful to me as reading the positive. I would hate to hear all about how rewarding it is to be a nurse, but never hear about...

    JenW replied to JenW's topic in Michigan Nursing

    YEAH! It's nice to hear from someone around here. I have a Bachelors degree in Anthropology, with a minor in Biology from Western Michigan University, so I'm able to transfer a lot of classes. In...

    Well, I found out the info I needed regarding CNA training in my area. My next question is regarding pay. I don't know if I'll get into the ADN program in 2004, so I thought I would take the...
