  1. Olivet Nazarene FNP

    I've spoken to an admission counselor and she said the first year is all online. The second year requires about 15 hours of clinicals a week which is not much. So I intend on keeping my fulltime job...
  2. Olivet Nazarene or Chamberlain MSN/FNP

    I don't doubt that Chamberlain is not a respected school. I have a few friends enrolled in the BSN program. I guess it's just a personal preference to not choose for profit schools. I looked at...
  3. Olivet Nazarene or Chamberlain MSN/FNP

    Have you gotten any feedback in during your research? I'm not considering Chamberlain, I don't trust for profit schools. I'm really considering Olivet because their fnp program is just 24 months. All...

  5. Resurrection University Fall 2014

    $705?! I rented mine for $90 but then again I am doing the evening/weekend. It was 3 books for term A and I'll just have to rent 1 more book for term B (reusing Health Assessment books for both
  6. CNA's want to share salary info?

  7. Hi everyone, I'm not really sure where this post belongs but since I'm a CNA (certified in July) I decided to post it here. I'm feeling extremely disappointed and defeated to say the least. I've had...
  8. thanks guys..bed pan is a great idea. Most of my residents are in isolation so they can just take bed baths. I guess i wasn't doing such an improper bed bath and thanks for giving me better ideas
  9. How to give a proper bed bath is one of my main conerns... I know how the book describes it but most of the time (since I'm new working about 3 weeks) I'm pretty slow and I can't take forever with one...
  10. How do you disconnect?

    I agree with jen, you do get slightly numb after a little time. I was like you and got attached to 2 residents during my orientation and would come home and cry because some cnas were a little mean...
  11. Hi everyone, I was hired at a nursing home full time which it took me forever to find this job. I had been looking for over 5 months and though I would've preferred a part time job since I'm in school...
  12. need advice for first cna job

    Thanks guys, made me feel better :) work has been better since I've kind of gotten to know my residents. I did work a different floor and even though I didn't feel as lost I did feel nervous since I...
  13. need advice for first cna job

    Yes I'm definitely thankful for having helpful nurses and fellow CNAs. I didn't think I would after reading posts on here so I was surprised how helpful everyone is. I'm not getting paid for any extra...
  14. need advice for first cna job

    I had a list that had almost everything I needed to do, which is why I felt I was prepared. But at the end I was just rushing and everyone was telling me to go home that I forgot the last foley I had...
  15. Hello, I've had my CNA certificate for about 2 months but have not found a job. I applied a few weeks ago to a couple of places but havn't recieved any call backs. I'm wondering if maybe I should give...
  16. Appropriate to call?

    So i called the places i had applied to and they all just kind of blew me off. Either they never called me back or just explained that they havnt reviewed the applications and that if theyre...
  17. Appropriate to call?

    If i would be so lucky to get hired on the spot lol. This might be a silly question but what does ADON OR DON stand for? I always see people write about it but im not sure what it is. And do you say...
  18. Thanks guys. Honestly I have not even made an attempt to make a resume, I was feeling hopeless but I'm feeling better now after reading your response. I think what has been holding me back the most...
  19. I just passed my state exam about 2 weeks ago but I have yet to apply for any jobs since I'm not only terrified that i won't do a good job but also because I have no resume. I'm worried since i have...
  20. I figured they needed one since on their websites they give an email to send in resumes.. When applying is it better in person? Would i just go in to their receptionist and say I want to apply? Im...
  21. Hello , I am planning to enroll in a 5-week CNA program this summer. I am hoping that after the exam i can get hired quickly (doesn't matter if its in a nursing home). But i'm concerned that i will...
  22. Wow those schedules all sound great. I would definitely want to work on the weekends so I hope that helps. I hope that wherever I get hired they'll be as
  23. Hi Everyone, I am currently going to a university that has no kind of nursing program but I am interested in nursing. I feel trapped so decided i would do all my pre-reqs for nursing school while...
