  1. Factory worker one day ... nurse the next?

    nohika replied to helikias's topic in General Nursing

    The OP had nothing against factory workers - just worried that the influx of workers will be damaging to the nursing

  2. A&P 1 Spring 2010

    nohika replied to Rimzy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Make flashcards is my suggestion. We're not to organelles yet (just on chapter 2, started chapter 3 with enzymes and allosteric sites and the bit) but for organelles with functions/stuff you need to...

  3. Allied Health vs. 4 year Nursing program

    nohika replied to kendallhubbard's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    To be honest, under MY KNOWLEDGE (I live in Washington, so I've been exposed to the RN programs here) a BSN will not take you an additional 4 years after the pre-reqs. I mean, c'mon, people. It takes...

  4. A&P 1 Spring 2010

    nohika replied to Rimzy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Well...here, A&P is broken up into three quarter. First quarter is basically intro, chemistry chapter, cell chapter, bones, integumentary system, and muscles. Second quarter...I'm not exactly sure...

  5. A&P 1 Spring 2010

    nohika replied to Rimzy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    At my school, one of the pre-requisite options was kind of a "mini A&P class" called Human Biology. It went over all the systems (and all the cellular stuff) at a slightly lower level, so it's...

  6. A&P 1 Spring 2010

    nohika replied to Rimzy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't have "homework", technically, but our first test is next week. I have three study guides to do for the test, five for my psych class, two more for my chem class...ickickick. Lotsa work to do....

  7. NICU in my future?

    nohika replied to sophie<3's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    Tell that to all the new graduates. Definitely not millions, but thousands are unable to find

  8. Help with body cavities?

    nohika posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    So I'm in A&P1, and we're doing body cavities and the like...I know what each cavity is, but it's just not "coming together" for me. I don't know where every organ is by memory, and I don't know...

  9. A&P 1 Spring 2010

    nohika replied to Rimzy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Nah, I took three years in high school so I remember most of it as well. It's just time-consuming since she insists we not only do like three paper assignments, but pages in the workbook and online...

  10. A&P 1 Spring 2010

    nohika replied to Rimzy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Well, two of them are labs, but it equals out to 20 credits. A&P, A&P Lab, Genchem1, Genchem1 Lab, French1 (ick), and Lifespan Psych. I was in class for about eight and a half hours today....

  11. Trying to decide between different schools...

    nohika posted a topic in Washington Nursing

    Hey guys! I'm a pre-nursing student who's working on her pre-reqs and trying to apply to most of the BSN programs in the state. However, I'm not sure which ones to focus on. I'm 19, live at home, and...

  12. A&P 1 Spring 2010

    nohika replied to Rimzy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Definitely stay on top of EVERYTHING. Read the text - ask here (or your professor) on anything you don't understand. I've gotten behind already, and this weekend is going to be my huge catch-up for...

  13. Factory worker one day ... nurse the next?

    nohika replied to helikias's topic in General Nursing

    I kind of see it as...well, in the commercials, they're going for the whole "this bum did it, so can you!" kind of appearance, thus the unshaven/unkept/etc

  14. Help with body cavities?

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

    THANK YOU SO MUCH. Omyheavens. That makes so much more sense. We were just given a sheet (and therefore no lecture whatsoever) on any of this, so it's really

  15. Help with body cavities?

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

    All of them - I know the names, I just...can't piece together how they "stack up". We were given a sheet that has random organs on it and "where they are in the cavities". It's hard to kind of piece...

  16. A&P 1 Spring 2010

    nohika replied to Rimzy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I just finished my first week of classes! So far it's not too bad - we've covered one chapter so far and will probably hit chapter 2 next week/this coming week. Our first test is January 26th, over...

  17. Accelerated Masters Program for NICU

    nohika replied to Tap2323's topic in General Nursing

    Actually, to be honest, you can't become an NNP (Neonatal Nurse Practitioner) without having at least a year (or two?) of Level III NICU experience. The programs won't accept you. So I'd advise you to...

  18. Can I make it through nursing school being scared of male patients?

    nohika posted a topic in Nursing Career

    Okay, a short background - I was abused as a kid by my father. Nothing sexual, but emotional and physical abuse galore. As a result, I'm fairly scared of men. Rather...I'm not scared of them as...

  19. ok,I need major advice on my major.

    nohika replied to undecidedmajor's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    ...you'd be pre-vet for vetmed, not pre-med. Just so you know. I'm (probably) going to go through nursing school in order to get a job so I can take my pre-requisites for veterinary school. I'm not...

  20. Can I make it through nursing school being scared of male patients?

    nohika replied to nohika's topic in Nursing Career

    I think this comes from my mother informing me I'm still a teenager since I'm nine-TEEN. Plus...I guess I really don't feel like an adult yet. I don't have the responsibilities (don't live on my own)...

  21. Can I make it through nursing school being scared of male patients?

    nohika replied to nohika's topic in Nursing Career

    No, no formal diagnosis beyond ADD and Depression (ain't life fun?). I don't like admitting to it (nor do I take medication) because...I don't believe in taking medication (for myself) since I don't...

  22. Can I make it through nursing school being scared of male patients?

    nohika replied to nohika's topic in Nursing Career

    I am seeing a therapist, I just don't like to touch on this issue (I'm a pretty jumpy person) because I'm not super-comfortable with her. Or adults in general (AKA, people older than I am by 5+...

  23. Can I make it through nursing school being scared of male patients?

    nohika replied to nohika's topic in Nursing Career

    I've got no problems with any man beyond having them as patients. I don't know how well I'd deal with the "intimacy". ...I just wonder if I'd get used to

  24. A&P 1 Spring 2010

    nohika replied to Rimzy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm pretty sure this is the book we're using. We can buy ours used, but the new package includes an interactive anatomy and physiology CD, which looks awesome, and since I'm taking a stressful...

  25. A&P 1 Spring 2010

    nohika replied to Rimzy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi guys! My name's Liz and I'm either pre-nursing or pre-vetmed. Haven't decided yet - odd choices, right? I'm taking 20 credits - three of them lab sciences. I'm really, really nervous about A&P...
