1. Mount Royal Nursing program

   lemidora replied to Beebop25's topic in International Nursing

   iluvoranges, both of the 1100 gned courses are fairly easy. I took 1102 and found it interesting and easy. I heard 1101 was a piece of cake as well. Any gned you take will have papers and assignments...

2. Athabasca courses?

   lemidora replied to Daisy_08's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

   I took the globalization course through them (one of my school's gen. ed requirements) in the summer as I wanted an easier course load during the semester. I didn't find it too bad. The syllabus was...

   lemidora posted a topic in General Students

   Hey guys! So I am finally here. I'm finally starting clinicals in a week. Exciting, right? One problem- palliative care unit is the one thing that scares me to death. It's not the idea of patients...

6. Mount Royal Nursing program

   lemidora replied to Beebop25's topic in International Nursing

   It's not possible to request the times for your clinicals. All clinicals have set days- for example, you first round (nurs 1214) will be on mondays, your second round (nurs 2114) will either be...

7. Mount Royal Nursing program

   lemidora replied to Beebop25's topic in International Nursing

   Yes, you can take general courses over the summer to lighten things up during the year but I should warn you that there is a lot of people that like to do that so you could be out of luck if you're at...

8. So, we don't learn how to do IVs in nursing school?

   lemidora replied to i<3u's topic in General Students

   In my program they get us to start practicing IVs in lab on mannequins in the second year and then we're allowed to do them on patients at the end of third

9. Just how difficult is nursing school?

   lemidora replied to michele742's topic in General Students

   Nursing school is as difficult as you let it be. If you freak out over every assignment and test, school won't be kind to you. If you put in the effort, you'll be just fine. It sounds like you know...

    Thanks, I'll definitely keep that in mind! (Here's hoping I never actually have to act on it). Until then... back to my

11. Job application- Alberta Health Service website.

    lemidora replied to MissMcCoy's topic in Canada

    It was at Foothills where I was told that. I was definitely taken aback that staff could openly say that. I'm not trying to be disrespectful or anything, but just want to put it out there that it...

    You are honestly the first person I've heard that from. Maybe there's hope for the rest of us

14. Job application- Alberta Health Service website.

    lemidora replied to MissMcCoy's topic in Canada

    Are you an internal applicant? If not, then you are probably out of luck. I have been applying for a year now and the only kind of response I've gotten are emails saying that "due to unforeseen...

15. Buying CRNE prep guides early on in the program

    lemidora replied to lemidora's topic in International Nursing

    That's a great idea! It never even crossed my mind to borrow the ones from the library. Thanks! I really like the program so far. Not going to lie- first year was a bit of a drag because I didn't have...
