    MissChloe replied to CNAAbby's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    A doula is actually a birthing support person. Home Health Aides that work with babies would still be Home Health Aides, I would

  2. Would you marry a Doctor?

    MissChloe replied to fleurafor's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Yes, I will be sure to report back on that. I answered the question, which was, "Would you marry a doctor." Since I am planning, heaven forbid anything horrible happens, to marry a man who will be...

  3. B.S.N. vs. Biology? Which one is more challenging?

    MissChloe replied to bree*'s topic in General Nursing

    I would say it depends on the school. You have to take a lot of advanced chemistry (organic 1 and 2, for starters) and upper level biology classes (obviously) for a bio major (I'm a senior major in...

  4. is this considered a fraud?

    MissChloe replied to Ms.RN's topic in General Nursing

    I think the Bachelors in Social Work is what makes you a social worker assistant. I think you have to have a Masters in Social Work to be a social worker yourself. So if she just has the BSW, and is...

  5. Would you marry a Doctor?

    MissChloe replied to fleurafor's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I'm heading to nursing school and my almost-fiance is heading to med school. So yes, I

  8. Do you correct your professor?

    MissChloe replied to RN9742's topic in General Students

    I'm not in nursing school yet, but I am in college. I correct my professors if they are wrong. Usually they are not, but they do make mistakes, and sometimes they are teaching something slightly out...

  9. When Does Your Semester End?

    MissChloe replied to princsheather's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm doing a biology degree and my prerequisites at a school with trimesters. Our last day of classes was last Wednesday the 17th, and then we had finals Saturday, Sunday, and Monday (20, 21, 22)....

  10. Amount of clinicals?

    MissChloe posted a topic in General Students

    I'm just curious about how clinicals work in different programs. How many times a week/month/semester do you go, and for how long each

  11. Pre-Nursing student going overboard

    MissChloe replied to cookie91's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am having a similar experience. Every nursing school that I look at has completely different requirements, and I'm only one person. I can't take 18 pre-reqs in a year. I just can't. I have had...

  12. Medical terminology with a full load?

    MissChloe posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm planning my classes for next term, and I was wondering what you all thought of medical terminology in terms of how time consuming it was and how difficult it was. I'm pretty good with words and...

  13. Medical terminology with a full load?

    MissChloe replied to MissChloe's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I do plan to devote a fair amount of time to it. This semester will be my first time taking online classes--I am taking 2 online plus some in person, too. I am thinking that I would just devote one...

  14. Medical terminology with a full load?

    MissChloe replied to MissChloe's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I haven't yet had anatomy, though I have had physiology. I'm glad you think it's

  15. Pre-Nursing Classes

    MissChloe replied to CASM's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm applying to two programs. For one, you only need intro chem and intro bio, and you need to be a CNA. They have you taking several typical pre-requisites during the first two semesters,...

  16. Taking Chem and Bio in the same semester?

    MissChloe replied to weluv3's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think it's doable, especially if you aren't taking anything

  17. How competitive are CC's?

    MissChloe replied to xInspiredx's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Ah, gotcha. I have had people tell me to not worry about my GPA because it doesn't matter in the real word, so I'm a bit on guard. Yeah, it doesn't matter once I'm a nurse, but it matters so that I...

  18. How competitive are CC's?

    MissChloe replied to xInspiredx's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    KeepinItReal, I'm not saying my GPA will be important when I graduate. I'm sure I'll "see" whatever it is that you think I will. But right now, for us pre-nursing students, GPA IS important, and...

  19. How competitive are CC's?

    MissChloe replied to xInspiredx's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    What about those of us who have Bs in prerequisites because we go to hard schools? I'm doing my undergrad in biology in one of the top 10 liberal arts colleges in the country. I work part time as a...

  20. Most annoying things when starting as a nurse or a nurse in a new place?

    MissChloe replied to SchoolNurseLaura's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not a nurse, but I am a CNA. One thing that I hated when I started at my LTC (and to some extent now, though I've been there almost 3 months) is that I never knew which incontinent product each...

  21. I could use a little advice...

    MissChloe replied to Hooligan's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Just to throw out there that working four days a week gives you more time to do "mom" things than many people have, because many non-nurses work regular work weeks of 5 days. Yeah, you're used to...

  22. Do you donate to your alma mater?

    MissChloe replied to SharonH, RN's topic in General Nursing

    If you tell them what the money is for, they cannot use it for anything else. It is called a gift

  23. Do you donate to your alma mater?

    MissChloe replied to SharonH, RN's topic in General Nursing

    As someone who has worked in various behind the scenes offices working with financial gifts to my undergrad college, I think some of you need a reality check. The reason that colleges aren't going...

  24. Is my dream of becoming a nurse possible while living on prescript pain pills

    MissChloe replied to nurscareer4me's topic in General Nursing

    How can a school have a zero-tolerance policy against prescription drugs if you have a prescription? Is it narcotics? Even then, what if you get injured during school and need Vicodin or

  25. What do you wear to work, fellow aides?

    MissChloe replied to MissChloe's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I agree. I can't imagine working somewhere that didn't have SOME kind of uniformity, even if it were just "wear scrubs of some
