  1. Funny Websites or Blogs With Nursing or Hosp Stuff

    kidsnstudyn posted a topic in Nursing Humor

    Wondering if anyone has funny websites or blogs that they'd like to share. There is some great stuff out there. This is the one I found tonight... Hyperbole and a Half: Boyfriend Doesn't Have...

  2. baby to the nursery please

    kidsnstudyn replied to jennifers's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I said and I quote "sometimes their lazy" - which I hate that I wrote because I used the wrong "their" oops correction *"they're". But to the point... sometimes they ARE lazy! I didn't say everyone...

  3. baby to the nursery please

    kidsnstudyn replied to jennifers's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I work on a very large post-partum floor, and yes - mom's will send their babies for the entire night sometimes [usually a couple each night]. We always have a RN assigned to Nursery and Transition....

  5. Little more than 2 weeks till CSCC starts

    kidsnstudyn replied to Buck eye's topic in Ohio Nursing

    I'm excited! I've got a mini-trip to North Carolina this weekend... and I still have to get all my books, but I'm stoked. The other people I know that are starting are a little ambivalent... I...

  6. Unhappy with CSCC...are there any alternatives?

    kidsnstudyn replied to b0rea1is's topic in Ohio Nursing

    I know, I've been there :), but I think there is more to it than we think. I've heard from a few people that there is a little more too it than first come, first served, so they must be looking at...

  7. Unhappy with CSCC...are there any alternatives?

    kidsnstudyn replied to b0rea1is's topic in Ohio Nursing

    What I've seen since getting into the program and dealing with the program more and more is that there aren't people who just do this [screening applicants]... they are a group of people who do a...

  8. Courses to take while waiting to start nursing at CSCC?

    kidsnstudyn replied to notallwhowander's topic in Ohio Nursing

    #1 - Don't count yourself out of the NURC 102 class. Wait til the drop date. People get dropped for non-payment at 11pm. You get online at 8am the next day and swoop up a seat in a class. I've...

    LOL, one of the things I'm NOT looking forward to is whatever we learn about Diabetes again!!! OMG, I've heard variations of Diabetes lectures on what it is and what's wrong with the body 6 times....

  11. Unhappy with CSCC...are there any alternatives?

    kidsnstudyn replied to b0rea1is's topic in Ohio Nursing

    I'm one of those people too. Physiology has been awesome compared to just memorizing individual muscles,viens, arteries, etc. and placement [which are different from cadaver to cadaver to model to...

    kidsnstudyn replied to b0rea1is's topic in Ohio Nursing

    I know, speech, woo-hoo, right? And I'm not doing hybrid so I think I have to video my speeches and turn them in. Oh well. As for what coreqs - I'm in Physiology & Humanities now, next quarter...

  13. Unhappy with CSCC...are there any alternatives?

    kidsnstudyn replied to b0rea1is's topic in Ohio Nursing

    Yup that's my schedule too, plus a speech class online. I wanted the availability for work and my family. So much better to keep all the days together! At least Weds & Thursday will be short to...

  14. Unhappy with CSCC...are there any alternatives?

    kidsnstudyn replied to b0rea1is's topic in Ohio Nursing

    It was actually a clinical on Monday or Tuesday. I got the Tuesday! - Does that mean you got Tuesday too? I was so happy. It took me 1/2 hour to get on as well and get registered even though I...

  15. Unhappy with CSCC...are there any alternatives?

    kidsnstudyn replied to b0rea1is's topic in Ohio Nursing

    I think that's a little harsh concerning 261. It is a hard class and very fast-paced. I'm happy for you that it was "easy". But I got my second "B" ever in that class and just because someone has a...

  16. Questions about obtaining an Ohio Hospital PCA position?

    kidsnstudyn replied to tyhmar6's topic in Ohio Nursing

    I just got hired on at OSUMC, with my Nurc 101 & 102, no hospital experience but 7 years of patient care in an office setting. I just kept applying to every open position, and they called me for...

  17. Unhappy with CSCC...are there any alternatives?

    kidsnstudyn replied to b0rea1is's topic in Ohio Nursing

    Yeah, I didn't think so. After everything at orientation and from previous students and then the great tips that the reps from SNA gave... I figure I have to devote enough time to read 100 pages a...

  18. Unhappy with CSCC...are there any alternatives?

    kidsnstudyn replied to b0rea1is's topic in Ohio Nursing

    We were even told at orientation that first quarter is LTC. Just an FYI for those applying they told us you have ABSOLUTELY no choice in clinical times. You take what you end up being scheduled for....

  19. bsn starting salaries

    kidsnstudyn replied to bsm03d's topic in Ohio Nursing

    As long as you work more than 75%/30 hrs a week you get 10 credit hours at OSU paid for per quarter. They don't pay for books, but they pay 100% of the tuition for the employee. It can start the...

  20. bsn starting salaries

    kidsnstudyn replied to bsm03d's topic in Ohio Nursing

    Oh yeah, and I think Mount Carmel starts RN's off at about $21/$22 an

  21. bsn starting salaries

    kidsnstudyn replied to bsm03d's topic in Ohio Nursing

    If you look at OSU, the base salary for a nurse is $23/hour [plus they have awesome shift/dif]. However, as a new nurse w/o any work experience [whatever your degree] I'm not sure how easy it is to...

  22. Unhappy with CSCC...are there any alternatives?

    kidsnstudyn replied to b0rea1is's topic in Ohio Nursing

    Ugh. That's almost all I can say about that. I guess I'll skip the online class, since I'm not the best at online anyway. Job + 1st quarter of nursing school + Two kids and a husband = I'll try a...

  23. Unhappy with CSCC...are there any alternatives?

    kidsnstudyn replied to b0rea1is's topic in Ohio Nursing

    I don't know what quarter you're in, but they started a tutoring program last quarter and brought that attrition number down to 8%! It seems like a pretty cool program, it's headed up by a lady [no...

  24. Unhappy with CSCC...are there any alternatives?

    kidsnstudyn replied to b0rea1is's topic in Ohio Nursing

    I didn't think they were saying that 23% dropped out of the program, they were dropping the class and having to cycle back through. I ordered 2 sets of scrubs [white top & Navy pants], 1...

  25. Unhappy with CSCC...are there any alternatives?

    kidsnstudyn replied to b0rea1is's topic in Ohio Nursing

    I know, but what can we do? I did hear that we can order the scrubs with a down payment - but I don't know that for 100% sure. I would not ask someone currently going there or the recruiters for...
