  1. Maintaining a Healthy/Cost Effective Diet Through School

    SilentMind replied to IKnowYouRider's topic in General Students

    Food prices vary by region. And you'll benefit greatly by checking your supermarket circulars once a week. Lots of staples turn up buy one get one free, and usually they pick one meat a week to mark...

  3. Broward College A&P--what's it like?

    SilentMind replied to alisonelizabeth's topic in Florida Nursing

    Hello, Mari. I took both anatomy classes at north, so I've only been to those labs. You spend about 2 hours a week in a lab class, where theres plenty of models to go around. As far as the LRC goes, I...

  4. health core class before May nursing program

    SilentMind replied to jam911's topic in Florida Nursing

    It seems strange that you can study those things without actually doing the skill checks. But that seems like a pretty decent class if you get all your certs done. I wish I had known that before I...

  5. health core class before May nursing program

    SilentMind replied to jam911's topic in Florida Nursing

    Are you sure we're talking about the same class? My HCP doesn't even cover CPR. We do Vitals/BP/pulse/respirations/temp, proper PPE techniques, handwashing , and moving patients. None of which is...

    SilentMind replied to jam911's topic in Florida Nursing

    How on earth can you take HCP in an online format? 2/3rds of the class is physical tasks and skill

    SilentMind replied to mrs.ant0125's topic in Florida Nursing

    You have to be in my class.

  10. health core class before May nursing program

    SilentMind replied to jam911's topic in Florida Nursing

    You're a little late in the game there, buddy. At BC, it's an 8 week course....so starting now wouldn't get you in. Sounds like the tech school is your best bet. Just go talk to nursing admissions and...

    SilentMind replied to jam911's topic in Florida Nursing

    I'm trying to get into the may program too. I'm taking the core down at BC central campus, and it ends in december so I have a bit more time. Unfortunately, in order for me to reach that 8 point mark,...

  12. health core class before May nursing program

    SilentMind replied to jam911's topic in Florida Nursing

    Applications are accepted for the may program up through January 15th, so you're going to be on a really tight timetable there. Theoretically, It may be possible. Although, sometimes it takes a week...

  13. Broward College A&P--what's it like?

    SilentMind replied to alisonelizabeth's topic in Florida Nursing

    By the way, here's a set of the lecture notes from another college. http://sites.actx.edu/~howard_re/a_and_p_notes.htm#tissues It may be a little more in depth, or it may focus on different material...

    SilentMind replied to jam911's topic in Florida Nursing

    You really need to be more in depth with your posts in order for anyone to help

  15. Bcc broward college points nursing

    SilentMind replied to jam911's topic in Florida Nursing

    Don't be afraid to flesh out your posts a bit. But 10 points is a little on the low side, but not enough to give you any trouble getting in. I think 10 is pretty much the cutoff, but 8 and 9's go on...

  16. Broward College A&P--what's it like?

    SilentMind replied to alisonelizabeth's topic in Florida Nursing

    I'm not entirely sure about that. Material wise, they're almost completely unrelated. They cover completely different systems, with only basic histology that really ties them together. I know a lot of...

  17. Broward College A&P--what's it like?

    SilentMind replied to alisonelizabeth's topic in Florida Nursing

    It's mostly a lot of memorization. You do a few dissections in lab, (sheeps brain, and cows eyeball) but the majority of "lab" time is really just sitting down in front of plastic models and...

  18. Broward College RN Program May 2010

    SilentMind replied to mrs.ant0125's topic in Florida Nursing

    I thought about deffering too, but I honestly can't afford to wait another semester. And in addition to that, may is the last chance to get in without having to take the HESI. I just don't want to...

  19. Health and safety snoops to enter family homes

    SilentMind posted a topic in Activism, Healthcare

    A page in the chapter of our "model" systems brings up an interesting debate. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/article6917328.ece "Health and safety inspectors are to be given unprecedented...

  20. Health and safety snoops to enter family homes

    SilentMind replied to SilentMind's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    All fine and dandy. Warranted even. But there's a big difference between what you listed and "stair gates, hot water temperature restrictors, oven guards and window and door locks." Gross negligence...

  21. Broward College RN Program May 2010

    SilentMind replied to mrs.ant0125's topic in Florida Nursing

    I'm finishing up A+P II as we speak. So I can't submit my application until next month. Where did you hear that bit about central? They seem to have far more resources and funding available then...

  22. Where do most of the uninsured live?

    SilentMind replied to HM2VikingRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    i'm going to be honest. i find it very difficult to follow your points. i'm not saying you're right or wrong, i just can't keep up without more effort then i'm willing to put in. so i'm going to opt...

  23. really need some advice--- please read

    SilentMind replied to angy0314's topic in Florida Nursing

    Why are you opposed to taking classes at BCC? (Btw, give us some credit. We're BC now! ) If you're looking for the RN program there, you only have two options. Theres the program starting in may,...

  24. Where do most of the uninsured live?

    SilentMind replied to HM2VikingRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    So, insurance companies...check. Medical professionals....check. Lawyers....check. Where does personal responsibility come into play again? Or do we just choose to look past that, because it's...
