  1. CNA's on your floor?

    missdixie023 replied to nursingal32's topic in General Nursing

    I am a CNA & nursing student. I can't believe that you would actually have to make a checklist for your NA's but it sounds like it's a must in your situation. I work in gyn-onc and on my floor...

    missdixie023 replied to RN Dreamer's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Mine didn't come in today's mail either :\ I don't know why she would mail them out different days so I feel like I should have gotten it already. I had more points than some other people I know that...

    missdixie023 replied to RN Dreamer's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congrats ADN! I know a few other people who got their letters yesterday, which leaves me feeling a little discouraged because I didn't get one. I feel like a crazy woman scrambling to the mailbox 30...

    missdixie023 posted a topic in General Nursing

    Hi everyone. I am a nursing student, and current CNA II working in GYN-ONC. My dream is to work in pediatrics, but it is so very difficult to get a position as a nurse in one of these units at our...

  7. Applicants to forsyth techs 2011 adn program

    missdixie023 replied to RN Dreamer's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi everyone! I have also applied for the Spring 2011 ADN program. I applied for Fall 2010 and received an alternate list letter. I never got called off of the alternate list. At that time I only had...

  8. Forsyth Tech - ADN - Fall 2010

    missdixie023 replied to MandaTaye's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hey guys, I have a question... How do the clinical days work throughout the program? Like, that time do they start, what time must you be at the hospital, how many times a week are clinicals, etc. I'm...

  9. Can a CNA get a job as a MA?

    missdixie023 replied to ccastor's topic in General Nursing

    In our state, the MA program is a 2 year degree consisting of a lot of clinical hours- then you must pass your boards. I know that here it would be impossible for a CNA to work as a

  10. Nursing School vs. Family

    missdixie023 posted a topic in General Students

    Hi everyone, I'm feeling a bit discouraged and i'm hoping for some feedback. I'm starting the ADN program at my school soon. I'm a single mom and recently moved back home with my parents after getting...

    Thank you to everyone who took time to reply to my post. I really appreciate the stories at tips. You all have made me realize that while it may be hard sometimes, I AM doing the right thing for me...

  12. Forsyth Tech - ADN - Fall 2010

    missdixie023 replied to MandaTaye's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Well, I do believe that everything happens for a reason, so if I don't get in maybe it just isn't the right time for ME :] I am finishing BIO-165 now, and registered for BIO-166 in the summer- so I...

  13. Forsyth Tech - ADN - Fall 2010

    missdixie023 replied to MandaTaye's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Nope! I still haven't heard anything :\ I know some people have told me that they got their call in July before class started in August about being accepted from the alternate list. I really don't...

  15. Is there anything I can work on before starting NS?

    missdixie023 posted a topic in General Students

    Hi everyone, I'm hoping to start the RN program at my local community college this fall, and if I don't get it i'll have to wait until Spring. Either way, I know it's a bit early but if I happen to be...

  16. Forsyth Tech - ADN - Fall 2010

    missdixie023 replied to MandaTaye's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think you'll only have Nursing I and Pharmacology as long as you've done all of your pre-reqs, and I also think you start clinicals during the first or second week

  17. Forsyth Tech - ADN - Fall 2010

    missdixie023 replied to MandaTaye's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congrats tm :] I have a feeling you won't have a problem getting in. You are 3 points closer than I am, and i'm thinking I might be at the bottom of the barrel. BUT, Ms. ***** did say in the info...

  18. Trying to make a decision! LPN? RN?

    missdixie023 replied to TMS1980's topic in General Students

    I definitely understand your reasons for wanting to go with the LPN. Where I live, however, they no longer hire LPN's at any of the hospitals, and jobs are definitely scarce in LTC. The pay for LPN...

    missdixie023 replied to MandaTaye's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks for replying Manda! I hope that orientation went well. I'm not sure how many alternate spots there are but I thought I remembered them saying 15. If so, i'm probably at the bottom of the barrel...

    missdixie023 replied to MandaTaye's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    missdixie023 posted a topic in General Students

  23. Forsyth Tech - ADN - Fall 2010

    missdixie023 replied to MandaTaye's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    tm - I would definitely have thought you would have made at least alternate list with a 146. I know I didn't get in either because I had about a 143. I was still holding out hope because I knew some...

    missdixie023 replied to MandaTaye's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    hi tmgordon, did you receive an alternate or rejection letter yet? i still haven't received

  25. Forsyth Tech - ADN - Fall 2010

    missdixie023 replied to MandaTaye's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Wow, that's pretty quick. I guess I will call. I know I would have heard something by now if I got in, I was just hoping i'd be an alternate. I had 143 points since I'm just now taking A&P :\...
