  1. state board back ground check.

    RedSox33RN replied to gamquick's topic in Online Distance Learning

    While I do think it is ridiculous that they won't give someone a straight answer to this question BEFORE they spend thousands upon thousands of dollars, only to find out that it was all for naught, I...

  3. Anyone know of A&P2 online class starting in July?

    RedSox33RN replied to RedSox33RN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Thanks for the info. I looked at Rio, but the courses last into Oct. I was looking for a summer one, as I'm starting nursing classes in September. I was lucky finding the Edukan one for A&P 1...

  4. Anyone know of A&P2 online class starting in July?

    RedSox33RN posted a topic in Online Distance Learning

    I just finished an online A&P1 class with Edukan, but they are not offering an A&P2 for the summer. I see that CCC has already begun. I didn't know if there were any 100% online A&P2...

  6. I'm experiencing jet-lag, any tips on how to adjust my sleep pattern?

    RedSox33RN replied to Wheaties's topic in General Nursing

    I could never readjust my sleep pattern all at once, so broke it up over a few days with several 2-3 hour naps. That always helped me get on to schedule without

  9. Lantus insulin use

    RedSox33RN replied to cnyrn's topic in General Nursing

    Before I went on an insulin pump (with just Nnovolog), I was on Lantus. Started out just in the evening, but I was not getting 24 hr coverage. I am sensitive to any insulin, even as a Type 1, and...

  10. A&P CCC Online: Are online tests timed?

    RedSox33RN replied to maleRN2b_one's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I didn't take A&P with CCC, but I would imagine they are timed. I've done a lot of online courses, and all had timed tests. Otherwise, what is to prevent someone from looking up every answer?...

  11. CCC Online versus Rio Salado for A&P class

    RedSox33RN replied to maleRN2b_one's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I just finished, today, A&P 1 through EduKan. It was an intensive 6-week course, and everything was online, including tests and labwork (with A.D.A.M.). It was very hard doing it so quickly, a...

  12. A little dissappointed in allheart.com

    RedSox33RN replied to studentnurse74's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I got a good price on my Littmann stethoscope there, and the penlight also. I didn't recall the sticker (or maybe just haven't pulled it out yet), but I agree with the Goo Gone. We've had a bottle...

  13. How many RN's scrub?

    RedSox33RN replied to Chrislynn2003's topic in Operating Room

    I hope you guys don't mind me butting in. I'm starting nursing school this fall, and my dream is to become an OR nurse. I must agree with your statement, Melissa. There are a few hospitals around...

  14. Warning issued on pregnancy drug

    RedSox33RN replied to gwenith's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I am a "late" DES baby, born in 1967. Besides unusually heavy menstrual periods since age 11 (10 days minimum, very heavy), I've had many, MANY abnormal paps, Had cryo done at age 18. I did not...

  15. Need quickie relief for child's allergic reaction

    RedSox33RN replied to Energizer Bunny's topic in General Nursing

    I'm glad Trey is doing better!

  16. What are web courses like?

    RedSox33RN replied to littlebitt's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I've taken many online classes also - just pre-req courses though. Some are all online, some have 1 or 2 classroom meetings. I'm a very self-motivated student, and the worked well for me. I will be...

  17. 13 pound infant...thank goodness it was c-section!

    RedSox33RN replied to becca.utns's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I couldn't sleep either, Jennifer. I spent the last 2 months of my pregnancy sleeping in a recliner or propped up on the sofa. The minute I laid flat on the bed, I felt like I was

  18. 13 pound infant...thank goodness it was c-section!

    RedSox33RN replied to becca.utns's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I've had big babies, had GD 2x (1st and 3rd preg), but no signs of it at all with my last, 4th pregnancy (even with weekly blood draws, and me checking at home), and A1c never got above 4.8, but...

  19. How often are the Dads prosecuted?

    RedSox33RN replied to LydiaNN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    The pregnancy may have helped turn things around, but I think you did the bulk of it with your attitude toward it. You made her realize the importance of education, which is 90% of the battle. I had...

  20. Rh question

    RedSox33RN replied to lovinghands's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I had a friend become Rh sensitized, and they didn't know how because she'd never been pregnant - supposedly. Going back over her menstrual history, they discovered she'd probably had a miscarriage...

  21. Bilingual or not?

    RedSox33RN replied to ShellyNC's topic in General Students

    I'm having a hard enough time trying to speak "A&P1" language! :rotfl: I don't need anything else to take on right now. In my area of the country, the only thing we even remotely see, and...

  22. Why are you REALLY going into nursing? Honest answers please.

    RedSox33RN replied to Sheri257's topic in General Students

    I haven't read through the whole post (up to 23 pages!), but I will say that I have several reasons. 1) I like the medical aspect of it - I find medical anything fascinating. 2) I know that I will...

  23. I have to be bathed by my classmate???

    RedSox33RN replied to Saved_by_Grace's topic in General Students

    My CNM was always taking in students, many of which had never performed an exam. They would do the exam with her present, then she would do it again afterward, just to be sure nothing was missed. I...

  24. For those getting ready to go into a nursing program this fall...

    RedSox33RN replied to Truly_Blessed's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I had a good experience just recently. I saw my NP for a full physical, and gave her my health form from the nursing school I'll be attending. She was really sweet, answering all of my questions...

  25. Purchasing Textbooks? Best ways/cheapest?

    RedSox33RN replied to cherokeesummer's topic in General Students

    I got a list of what I will need in September, the required AND the optional, and have already bought 2 on eBay for about 1/2 of what the used ones are at my school bookstore. Plus, I am NOT buying...
