can people name some schools where you dont need to take the TEAS to get in? I am in Michigan it would be nice to find somewhere close but I may have to travel if I want to be an RN

I don't know why I can't pass the Reading Section of the TEAS for my school. All I need is a 69% and I keep getting anywhere from a 60-63%. I just find the Reading Section very tricky, not the short stories, but I am not good at reading maps, and a f...

What if you want to attend a school that only allows two attempts but you took it twice at other schools because they have a policy that you MUST take it at their college? Will they hold that against you? Do they check to see how many times you have ...

To the ADN nurses who went back to complete school to get your BSN did you have difficulty studying and focusing on your studies because you were now working full-time? are there programs out there where you can get your BSN in a year?

Competiton is too much. It's the same at every school. When will this go away? I'm so frustrated!

does anyone know a place that offers cpr training for a reasonable price? red cross is too expensive

Right now I am doing part time homehealth aide work. One of the duties that I have been doing for my patient is taking him to church, and I sit through the 2 hour service with him until its done. Just curious, do you think that I should talk to the c...

i just wanted to know if there is a demand for Rad Techs. I plan on applying for that program since I couldn't pass the TEAS test. Do they have the potential to make as much money as RNs?

thanx. may I ask why you decided to leave the RT field and go into nursing?

what was the level of difficulty?

It's a twelve hour shift and he requires a lot of work just getting him in and out of the car. He has cerebral palsy

Argumentative would be a better word lol

Usually, another family member takes him to church but this person is in rehabiliatation, so now I take him on my shift. I've had a few homehealth jobs assignments here and there, and I've never had to take a patient to church and sit through servic...

I got into the Rad Tech program. I see that there is a bit of physics involved and I've never taken a physics class before. Will this be a disadvantage for me?

Well??

Yes, I know that feeling too well. The OCD patients can sometimes be mean, and so unreasonable, which makes it very hard for me to like them and my job. I recently got accepted into Radiology Tech school, and I am debating if maybe I should just purs...

It's the OCD patients that I have a very difficult time working with. You have to do things a particular way or else they go off. I can't please them at all. Don't know why, it seems other home health aides or CNAs deal with them a lot better than me...

I've never worked in a hospital. Just in a LTC facility and as a homehealth aide. What do you like about working in a hospital?

Well what area of nursing can I avoid this?

I like helping patients as long as things go quickly and smoothly. But those type of patients are far and few in between. Some of them purposely make your job more difficult. For instance, I had a patient who is disabled, and needs to be transferred ...

I don't know. That's why I am asking. RNs can go into many different fields. A CNA cannot. I thought maybe I can find something in the RN field that I enjoyed more than dressing, bathing, and feeding all day

Rude, and ungrateful patients. Patients that take forever to get them dressed. Every 5 minutes they need something. Constant critiques over every little thing.

I have a patient who is frustrated that the home health aides won't do his homework for him so he can pass his class. He is blaming us for him falling behind in his studies. He wants us to write his papers for him (two 5 page papers), and all of his ...

has anyone submitted their apps yet?

I'm not sure, although I am leaning towards it being independently owned.
