  1. Show me the Money

    Kabin replied to Browndog's topic in Male Nursing Students

    If one wants to lower nursing school costs, one should check with local hospitals for tuition payback

  2. So what's Tucson like as a place to live? Would you recommend?

    Kabin replied to klone's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Traffic has been bad in Tucson for some time. From the beginning, they didn't plan the freeway system very well. As far as crime goes, I recall Tucson's population seemed to have a larger percentage...

  3. So what's Tucson like as a place to live? Would you recommend?

    Kabin replied to klone's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Found a couple of websites showing Tucson crime in 2002 was substantially worse than Phoenix per capita. http://tucson.areaconnect.com/crime1.htm http://phoenix.areaconnect.com/crime1.htm Hopefully I...

  4. So what's Tucson like as a place to live? Would you recommend?

    Kabin replied to klone's topic in Arizona Nursing

    My wife loves Tucson and sometimes has regrets we left in 2000. She had a nice commute to UMC and I had a dreadful oneway 45 minute/17 mile commute. If you visit Tucson, try to visit during the rush...

  6. Anybody familiar with Queen Creek AZ?

    Kabin replied to FUNRN's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I saw it on the local evening news, but I'm sure there were news articles on it as well. For the most part, these type of delays are caused by a shortage of workers and supplies. It's a common...

  7. Anybody familiar with Queen Creek AZ?

    Kabin replied to FUNRN's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Queen Creek had some infamous news a couple of weeks back. Several schools in the area are way behind in construction schedule and the parents are perturbed. They are paying premium taxes for these...

  8. Grossmont or San Diego State?

    Kabin replied to Faeriewand's topic in California Nursing

    Check the Summer I session under Nursing courses and it's listed as

  10. Grossmont or San Diego State?

    Kabin replied to Faeriewand's topic in California Nursing

    I should also add, what caught my attention is I attended both Grossmont and SDSU years ago.

  11. Grossmont or San Diego State?

    Kabin replied to Faeriewand's topic in California Nursing

    For me, two years wait is too long a wait. I'd check out all options and even consider a private school (USD?). If family arrangements made it possible, I'd also consider attending an out of state...

  12. planning to move to arizona

    Kabin replied to wannaBnurse2's topic in Arizona Nursing

    There are so many Kalifornians moving to AZ it isn't funny. Uhaul is charging an extra fee for one way rentals out of Kalifornia as there are few that are willing to move to your state. By the way, I...

  13. Shadowing/Volunteering in Tucson

    Kabin replied to rgshire's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I heard that! And don't forget about the benefits of not having to interact with those less-than exciting s/w type people anymore! Coincidently, I'm in the process of a similar s/w development...

  15. Anybody familiar with Queen Creek AZ?

    Kabin replied to FUNRN's topic in Arizona Nursing

    In all our searches for homes, we felt resale homes were a better deal than a new home purchase. It's always good to know where you want to work, so you can avoid the worst traffic directions. I hear...

  16. Ugh...I killed my chance at an A for BIO202...

    Kabin replied to klone's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Sorry to hear about that. Have you talked to your teacher for some lenience? Weather is definitely beyond our control and should be taken into consideration. I'd bring up MLK's Monday holiday as a...

  17. help me buck the system, please! super-traditional pinning ceremony that nobody wants

    Kabin replied to rach_nc_03's topic in General Nursing

    Some small communities might not have many banquet room to choose from and a church might be the only choice. Although the school campus would seem to always be a fall back. But I agree with the idea...

  18. ASU vs GCU

    Kabin replied to maneses's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I should also add, traditional program GCU students are expected to attend religious functions including pep motivation rallies, church service,

  19. help me buck the system, please! super-traditional pinning ceremony that nobody wants

    Kabin replied to rach_nc_03's topic in General Nursing

    Are male nurses expected to wear white

  20. ASU vs GCU

    Kabin replied to maneses's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Yep, unless you enroll in the nontraditional programs such as the accelerated BSN, online courses, and (I believe) master degrees. Also, the traditional degree programs are required to take two...

  21. What do you think about...

    Kabin replied to humiliated's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    There may be several benefits if the profession changed its name. I was driving one day and saw a car with a vanity plate that said "I LV 2 TCH." This was obviously a proud teacher and that made me...

  22. What do you think about...

    Kabin replied to humiliated's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    If one wants to be paid as a practioner, then they better pick up those advanced skills and use

  23. Differences (Educative/Clinical) between NP & PA

    Kabin replied to jstuben's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    AZ also allows NP's to practice independently, i.e. without physician supervision. Unforunately, the same is not true for PA's. I know of one NP, working in the mental health field, that rents an...

  24. Online Pathophysiology

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

    Yep, the school I'm attending only requires the 3 credit hour patho variety, whereas most only accept the 4 credit

  25. Online Pathophysiology

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

    Looks like I have some options here. You are right about Rio, I called to confirm what you were saying. The weird thing is it's listed under the Nursing department, but uses course prefix HCR for...
