  2. RN to MD, has anyone done this?

    vanderth replied to Loux's topic in General Nursing

    I work have worked in the medical field for quite a while and I am also married to a surgeon. I have to say that I personally think that you would be looked upon as an asset to a medical school if...

  3. Start nursing school with a newborn at home?

    vanderth replied to nurse2B444's topic in General Nursing

    I think it would be very challenging, however I think you should begin school as soon as possible. If you wait then you may not ever go to school at all. Buck up, know it is going to be rough but it...

  4. Nursing student needing Help

    vanderth replied to tamabalj's topic in General Nursing

    I have to agree with all of the posts, although I think the first two are more appropriate. It isn't mean to tell someone that they have to come up with their own essay answers. The essays are how the...

    vanderth replied to Jennacoh's topic in Colorado Nursing

    vanderth replied to Jennacoh's topic in Colorado Nursing

    vanderth replied to Jennacoh's topic in Colorado Nursing

    vanderth replied to webmansx's topic in General Nursing

    Hi there, I am not a nurse yet, start school in January. However, I find that this situation can be applied to any profession. I think you should go for it. I think it would be impossible for them to...

  9. My dream is turning out to be a nightmare!

    vanderth replied to dddduncan's topic in Colorado Nursing

    I have personally spoken to Children's, Denver Health, St. Joes, St. Anthony's, Swedish etc. I too was informed that nurses from DSN WILL NOT be considered for positions due to their accred status. I...

  10. My dream is turning out to be a nightmare!

    vanderth replied to dddduncan's topic in Colorado Nursing

    I understand your friend got hired at Children's and I think that is great. The hospitals are no longer hiring from DSN, meaning recently they decided they are no longer hiring from DSN. The reason...

    vanderth replied to phines8098's topic in Colorado Nursing

    Hi Nick, Fb page sounds great. I am in. I did contact metro about the paperwork for the background/drug checks. They assured me with the literal term "no worries" that it would be in the mail in the...

  15. Looking for LPN school in Colorado

    vanderth replied to phines8098's topic in Colorado Nursing

    I can't imagine we would start clinicals the first semester, afterall I think most would need some pathophys/pharmacology to make any kind of knowledge based decisions. My husband is a surgeon (and...

  16. Looking for LPN school in Colorado

    vanderth replied to phines8098's topic in Colorado Nursing

    Wow that doesn't sound bad at all. Makes me think I might be able to keep my job. I really don't want to quit because of the salary, but want to quit because I am burnt out. Hmmmm? Where did you...

  19. Looking for LPN school in Colorado

    vanderth replied to phines8098's topic in Colorado Nursing

    I think, Dennis, that you and I have a common interest and that is in finding out the actual times for the scheduled classes. Both due to daycare stuff. Good news is I took advanced pathology in...

    vanderth replied to Delta_Notch's topic in Male Nursing Students

  21. Looking for LPN school in Colorado

    vanderth replied to phines8098's topic in Colorado Nursing

    Yes, it would be nice to get a heads up on the schedule, as my baby is in daycare but they have limited hours. Therefore, I will have to potentially get a nanny instead of daycare...ugh so expensive...

  22. Why do LPN's get so disrespected?

    vanderth replied to Health-Nut's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Hi Health nut, I have been trying to re-find this post for about 30 minutes. I lost it due to computer freeze..ugh. Anyway, let me first tell you that I am married to a surgeon and all he does is talk...

    vanderth replied to dddduncan's topic in Colorado Nursing

    Not being hired because they are not appropriately accredited ie. ccne or nlnac ect. Plus, if you wanted to extend your education there aren't many institutions that will accept a BSN from DSON...

    vanderth replied to dddduncan's topic in Colorado Nursing

    vanderth replied to phines8098's topic in Colorado Nursing

    Oh geez Dennis I wan't referring to you! I didn't even know that you had applied to Regis. I think the more applications out there the better. I certainly did not want to "bash" anyone for attending a...
