  1. NCCU's program

    mommyonamission replied to mommyonamission's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Well after doing some more digging on their program through some online research it seems as though they have had a recent history of being put on probationary status because they missed the...

  2. Nursing Education and the Recession - Tough Economic Times

    mommyonamission replied to VickyRN's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    Jpeters, I have to say that both of your posts on this topic give a remarkable perspective and interpretation of the problem. I like your stance to not work for a hospital that does not welcome new...

  3. new grad may 2009..possibly relocating...need advice

    mommyonamission replied to breanne27's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Yeah, I'm hearing a lot about new grads not being able to find jobs too but it really does DEPEND ON WHERE YOU'RE LOOKING! That seems to be the trend hands down. That said, here in the Raleigh/Durham...

  4. What to do - ADN vs. BSN vs. forget about it!

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

    Yeah, that's what me and my husband were thinking too...that having the RN designation regardless of the ADN or BSN route will not matter, dependent on some jobs of course. My career recently has been...

  5. What to do - ADN vs. BSN vs. forget about it!

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

    You gave the same advice (minus the MSN program info) that my husband gave and I can understand that side to things too. Especially since our financial situation isn't too rosy right now with just one...

  6. What to do - ADN vs. BSN vs. forget about it!

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

    I like your perspective. I've also thought about it that way too. I know that whatever I decide I'll give it my all but I also don't want to waste any time and spend too many years on gaining an...

  7. What to do - ADN vs. BSN vs. forget about it!

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

    Thanks, I've considered that too. As for the MSN entry route, never thought about it actually...I'll take a look at what's in my area. The A&P I was so long ago and the schools I've been looking...

  8. Duke ABSN loans? Should I even apply?

    mommyonamission replied to ICU11's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    I'm in the same boat as you. I have the similar situation and have thought about the costs as well. The exception is that, unlike you, I am not working or volunteering at a hospital and do not have...

  9. Trying to choose an Allied Health Career

    mommyonamission replied to NCNurseBae's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    I don't know if I can answer all of your questions without knowing more about your situation. But, my recommendation would be for you to choose a career based on who YOU are as a person and what...

  10. Nursing Education and the Recession - Tough Economic Times

    mommyonamission replied to VickyRN's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    VickyRN, points well taken! What I don't understand is how hospitals have numerous nurse openings (at least according to their websites) yet so many nursing grads that you know are unemployed. Of...

  11. FAINTING...what made you drop?

    mommyonamission replied to Music_Box_Dancer's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Wow I never fainted before (well almost when I locked my knees during a hot summer day of band camp...yes, I'm a former band geek..proud and true), BUT I will say that I emphasize with your worries...

  12. My Introduction

    mommyonamission replied to Hoping2BeStudent2010's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    That's fine I guess. I do know that some schools for the ABSN programs I've been looking into (i.e. UNC) want you to mention every single college course and college institution you've been to, or else...

  13. Advise me, Please...

    mommyonamission replied to USN2UNC's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    I agree with everyone

  14. Single mother and ABSN- can I do it?

    mommyonamission replied to rubypie's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    I think you should be applauded for taking this step. I'm also a mom in my 30s and while I do have a supportive husband, I can sort of relate to your story. I've been impacted by the healthcare...

  15. My Introduction

    mommyonamission replied to Hoping2BeStudent2010's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Hi and welcome to allnurses! I just joined this morning myself. So, first of all, congrats on making this decision. Based on the overall vibe I got from your post, you seem enthusiastic and...
