Why can nurses be so catty towards each other? Maybe there should be more psychiatric professionals. So disappointing.

I was in your sisters shoes exactly. Master in counseling psych. Ive had a private practice since 1999. Decided to go back to earn PMHNP. I am 5 classes from finishing. I have cleaned TONS of poop...vomit...horrible attitudes...stage 4 wounds etc...n...

I know it is more expensive, but I have always used a nanny. gonannies.com is a place that I have found 2 good nannies. I have always paid $10 per hour. It saves you having to get the kids up and out in the morning and they get to be home with each o...

Hi Teresa! Fancy meeting you here! In my office, we could NEVER call out an entire patient name. The sign in sheet is "first name only" and each name is removed asap. TTYL, Anny :heartbeat

Hi Sara. I am feeling better after the first two exams. I am going to be glad to have Friday's exam over as well. Then I will know what to expect on that one too. So, so far so good. :-)

How is the review? I haven't listened to it yet.

Yes, the Patho test was HARD. I looked at the first few questions and about panicked! lol I am going to begin reading Patho as soon as the Pharm exam is over. Hopefully the pharm exam is better.

Claudia, We aren't in clinicals yet. We are in the nursing lab on Saturdays for 4.5 hours.So, if you take patho before nursing school, you will have Pharmocology online and a 4.5 hour lab on Sat only for the first semester. We start hospital work 5 ...

Yes, take patho before nursing school. I wish I did. The weekend program is accepting students every year and will accept 90 in the next class. There are 45 students in the Spring 2010 class. Good luck!

The fast track and the weekend programs are for people who already have a bachelor's degree in another field. Brookhaven has a 16 month program, but it is a ADN, not a BSN. That may matter to you. The fast track seems like it would be difficult. I th...

Hi Huggiebear, TWU has a bunch of different programs. I am pretty sure they are all 2 years with the exception of the fast track post bac one. That one is 15 months, May-August of the next year. I am in the weekend program and we start now and will g...

Thank you so much!

I thought the Hesi was pretty easy. I took Chem and A&P I and II many(many) years ago. I only studied the study guide and I did fine! My score was high enough to get me into TWU. I found the tests to be really basic. Kind of a macro perspective....

I would say not to give up at all! BUT, stop dropping classes! lol You can only drop 6 for your entire undergrad degree. You are at 3 now. Take your classes with a tutor from the beginning. These classes can be difficult, but you have to do really w...

I just read an email that Dr.* sent to us. We have a new pharm prof and he doesn't use a book. He uses an online resource. She mentions in the email that the book will be an excellent resource over the next 2 years, but the prof doesn't use it. I may...

PM means Private Message. :-)

I went to scrubs etc today (on Medical Ave and stemmons) Very close to Campus. I got an Urbane scrub shirt and pants for $42.

I would call Megan regarding the scheduling. As far as the books, I am buying mine from Amazon.

I did? Sorry.

books... 1.Assessment Skills Laboratory manuel for Health & Physical Assessment in Nursing. 2.Health and Physical Assessment in Nursing 3. Clinical Handbook for Health and Physical Assessment in Nursing all 3 by D'Amico and Barbarito and for N...

Yes. I will post books later. Stethescope is the best you can afford. You should spend about $100. The uniforms are the white top and burgandy/maroon pants. No lab coat. We can wear a long sleeve white shirt under the scrub top. All white shoes, wh...

Hi Saralou, I met with Dr. Sherif and she explained the program to me. I missed the orientation as well. We need to be CPR certified as a healthcare provider. The student nursing association is having a training the week before class. It is $40 and c...

I got an 86 on my HESI. My GPA is 3.8

That schedule sounds reasonable to me. Just remember to study A&P every. single. day. It will pay off!

I think TWU is $158 a credit.
