  1. LPN or straight to RN

    Graduation2016 replied to callmekeykey's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Most places you have to at least work for 1 year as an LPN before you can even apply to the bridge program so it'll be at least 3 years all together. I would do my pre-reqs while working and saving so...

  2. Going from RN to PA

    Graduation2016 replied to tcb160's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You can be an RNFA. Once an RN do a First Assist course and get certified and they pretty much do all a PA does. I work in L&D as a scrub tech and we have an RN who assists most of the physicians....

    Graduation2016 replied to PeepnBiscuitsRN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    D&E is a dilation and extraction when a spontaneous abortion doesn't allow for all the product to be expelled from the body. I'm sure whoever came up with a laparoscopic c-section was tripping on...

  6. Hilarious Gangnam Style OB/Gyne parody music video

    Graduation2016 replied to RN2B123's topic in Nursing Humor

    As an OB Scrub Tech I think the video portrays everything we do and that happens just on out floor. Only some of us get to experience "amniotic showers" and some babies do get literally catched when...

    Graduation2016 replied to realitycheck2013's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Graduation2016 replied to FutureNurseShammy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Some people clearly come here to bring everyone down not to offer any words of wisdom or support or anything positive. That specific poster only has mean things to say (check past posts). I learned...

    Graduation2016 replied to alexandra_iris's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Expect to at least have to take 4-5 science pre-reqs plus some math, English, psychology, and some times even electives. This not debatable. You have to have these in order to apply for any of the...

  15. Anybody go to Keiser?

    Graduation2016 replied to GirlDotson's topic in Florida Nursing

    I'm not sure as for a limit. When you don't pass one of the sections you can re-take it by paying $25 for each section you retake. The advisors at keiser at sales people so they want you retake ASAP...

  16. Anybody go to Keiser?

    Graduation2016 replied to GirlDotson's topic in Florida Nursing

    Keister requires you to take the TEAS before anything else. Math is 76%, Science 56%, reading 75% and English 75%. I think this is what the scores were when I took it in the summer. You pay your exam...

    Graduation2016 replied to melissa104's topic in Florida Nursing

    Sexyeve: as long as you are in the middle of your program or at least started, you should have no problems getting that appeal approved. They rather approve you and have you finish so you can get a...

  21. Online CNA certification?

    Graduation2016 replied to SunshineSara's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    CNA programs are not provided online as far as I know. If you can't take classes you can challenge the state exam which is required to get your license. But classes or no classes you still have to...

    Graduation2016 replied to mamayogibear's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    In my area the Workforce program can pay for a CNA training if you qualify. They will have you take the TABE test and take it from there. Good

    Graduation2016 replied to ShaynaSmart's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    That little mistake might cost you future jobs once you graduate. They can feel that if you pull a no show/no call for a CNA job what will change if they give you an RN position with tons more of...
