  1. Hospital based nursing programs

    Those aren't hospital based nursing programs. The coursework happens at PVCC and the clinicals happen at John C. Lincoln hospital. Scottsdale CC has a similar partnership with Scottsdale Healthcare....
  2. Any word-- Hampton University??

    Just make a quick 15 posts and then you will have access to private messages.
  3. Oh I appreciate all that CNA's do. I am not bagging on the people who choose to do it, I just don't see HOW they can do it as a career. I loved all of the patients who I met while I did clinicals to...
  4. Are there any online LPN programs ?

    RSAA offers CNA courses as well. They are located in Mesa and offer a great program. I did the 3 week day program. I would recommend that over taking half or an entire semester. They also offer...
  5. Supplies for Nursing School

    Honeylips!! That is fantastic
  6. Scottsdale Healthcare Interview!

    Good luck! I used to work at SHC and I LOVED it. I would go back and work there if/when I ever move back to AZ. It is an awesome atmosphere to work in and I haven't found a hospital even close to as...
  7. Why does Sonography pay more than nursing?

    Thank you tittytatRN, that was exactly my point
  8. LPN pay rate in Newport News

    I agree with the 1st post, the pay in VA stinks! I thought AZ was bad but AZ actually pays RN's, LPN's great compared to VA. I have a friend here who is a CNA at a hospital and her pay is $8.35/hr....
  9. Being a CNA is a very dirty job. The clinicals are done at a LTC facility which I have no desire working at so it really turned me off from nursing. I am coming back around to the idea but the...
  10. Salem State Direct Entry Taking Vacation

    I have heard that most nursing programs are very strict about absences. I mean most schools have a waiting list or many people that were turned down in your favor. I agree that you and your husband...
  11. I graduated from my CNA class!

    Congrats and good luck! I would pick being a CNA at a children's hospital over adult care any day. Just apply and see what happens. My CNA program kept telling people that they probably wouldn't get...
  12. Why does Sonography pay more than nursing?

    Why do many professions pay more than a teacher's salary and we are relying on teachers to educate our children? Why do movie stars make millions and still get free stuff galore while most other...
  13. Should I not include this in a resume?

    I agree with the above posters that you should leave it out. I never wear my wedding ring or mention my children because although employers can't not hire you because of your marital status or whether...
  14. Wow, this is a great thread. I have often thought about what else I could possibly do in healthcare that isn't nursing
  15. BIO 201 at Rio Salado

    Hello! I am so glad that I have found these threads as well! I have taken many, many classes at RIO and have never had any issues. However, I did take BIO156, 8 week acc. version and barely scraped by...
  16. Well, as far as your question about a Cali CNA license being able to be transferred to Kentucky, you would just have to look on the Kentucky state board of nursing website and find out what you have...
  17. Oh, my program was a weekend course so we did our clinicals in 2 weekends, 12 hours each day. And the nasty stuff is why I am not working as a CNA.
  18. CNA to RN

    There are so many jobs that you can do other than being a CNA while waiting for nursing school waiting lists. A CNA's job has nothing to do with being an RN at all. You are the very bottom of the...
  19. And I think that if you are lucky enough to get a CNA who doesn't make you do a bunch of nasty stuff then you should stick with them!! I never planned on working in a LTC facility so I just wanted to...
  20. Bring a big jar of Vicks because some of the smells that you are about to experience are enough to make you
  21. Being a CNA is disgusting. I do wish you luck and hope that you like it but I honestly don't know who could like changing diapers and smelling the worst smells possible all day long that gets...
  22. I agree. I have a CNA license it has to be the worst job possible. It is a totally underpaid job and a disgusting one as well. I would advise my worst enemy to go and become a CNA. Ugh. It actually...
  23. Hospital based nursing programs

    I really think that Riverside is the last or one of the very last hospital based nursing programs in the States. The one the above post is talking about in AZ is the same as any ADN programs across...
  24. RSAA Grads - peripheral question

    How is it going so
  25. Accepted to VCU!

    I think 2.5 but there have been poster on here that had 3.4 gpa and were put on the waiting list so I imagine that it will have to be much higher in order to be
