  1. How much do specialty doctors charge if the patient has NO insurance?

    SPJJMommy replied to onlyj's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with TheCommuter, call beforehand and ask if they offer a discounted rate if you pay cash. I used to pay cash for my children's pediatric appts (we had insurance, but this particular office...

  2. Any suggestions for white scrub pants? (That aren't see through?)

    SPJJMommy replied to Cat_RN's topic in General Nursing

    I second Koi.... I bought their Lindsey style white pants, and I get a ton of compliments on them. They're about as "unsee through" as you get. Plus they're very comfy and stylish

    SPJJMommy replied to mee9mee9's topic in General Nursing

    Tatycare, I don't think I did anything different than normal when applying for financial aid through FAFSA. I got the same pell grant I have received every semester of my undergrad-- $2,500 ($5,000 a...

    SPJJMommy replied to mee9mee9's topic in General Nursing

    I'm in a second degree BSN program (I already hold a BS degree), and I didn't have any trouble getting pell grants and sub/unsubsidized loans. Thank goodness too... we're a family of four living on...

  5. Mt San Jacinto RN Program

    SPJJMommy replied to heartbeats's topic in California Nursing

    Yeah, it probably isn't for you if you need the classroom environment. I love the structure, but I've always been a big fan of online learning. I have two toddlers, so for me having to be physically...

    SPJJMommy replied to heartbeats's topic in California Nursing

    Have you looked into Western Governor's University? I live near you, and I was accepted to WGU and have been attending since last month. The coursework is online, and clinicals are held at Riverside...

    SPJJMommy replied to Summers_Off's topic in General Nursing

    I love it! Your dream totally made me laugh out loud. I recently had a dream that it was my first day at work as a family nurse practitioner. I didn't know what to do, and I kept telling my...

  10. Anyone know how soon it takes to set up a TEAS exam date?

    SPJJMommy replied to okiedokie123's topic in General Students

    It's a really quick process. I was told by my nursing school on Monday of last week that I needed to take the TEAS V before the end of the month (I had planned on taking it in January). I went to the...

  11. Western Govenors... did you have this problem?

    SPJJMommy replied to Lisa1980's topic in Western Governors University

    With all due respect, Western Governors University is a reputable school that provides quality education. It's a little bit silly to base the quality of a school's education off of a couple of...

  14. Can Micro and A&P1 be taken at the same time?

    SPJJMommy replied to Kkalasa's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took Micro and AP II together (along with psychology and an ethics course), and I did well in all classes. I'm also a busy mom (with a 1 year old and 2 year old), so if I can do it, just about...

  15. Worried

    SPJJMommy replied to forall's topic in General Students

    I'm a mommy too (I have a 1 year old and a 2 year old), so I know how hard it can be to fit in study time (especially when it's the end of the day and you're exhausted!). Here are some of the things...

  22. CA ADN Programs that Allow Online Micro

    SPJJMommy replied to sweatpea23's topic in California Nursing

    I think they all do, as long as the class was taken at an accredited institution. The only school I've come across that doesn't is CSU San Marcos (for their BSN program)... their website specifically...
