  1. 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 Ebola. Probably. *UPDATED* It's about "redoing" the...
  2. What's the weirdest baby name?

    We had twins a month or so ago. Me'Unique and De'Coldest - I'm not kidding.
  3. baby to the nursery please

    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 or all the time! And I'd like to see anyone who's w...
  4. baby to the nursery please

    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. Usually there is an ECN RN too, depending on if w...
  5. Little more than 2 weeks till CSCC starts

    I know, it's been weird... I guess I'll just go to class on Thursday.
  6. Little more than 2 weeks till CSCC starts

    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 think it's just been this thing we've wanted for so lo...
  7. Unhappy with CSCC...are there any alternatives?

    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 something...?
  8. Unhappy with CSCC...are there any alternatives?

    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 million and one things including admissions. They are...
  9. Courses to take while waiting to start nursing at CSCC?

    #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 done this for multiple classes now. #2 - Don't take a...
  10. Unhappy with CSCC...are there any alternatives?

    :lol2: :lol2: Yay!? LOL, just kidding, I know, I just feel my eyes glazing when I hear the first word.
  11. Unhappy with CSCC...are there any alternatives?

    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. We have one coming up in physio, and I'm sure we'll...
  12. Unhappy with CSCC...are there any alternatives?

    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 picture]... and I do realize that all people are dif...
  13. Unhappy with CSCC...are there any alternatives?

    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 the Speech - so I'll have Patho, Micro, and that ...
  14. Unhappy with CSCC...are there any alternatives?

    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 make up for Tuesday...
  15. Unhappy with CSCC...are there any alternatives?

    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 had my screen ready at 11:45pm.
  16. Unhappy with CSCC...are there any alternatives?

    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 rough time with a science doesn't mean they won't ...
  17. Questions about obtaining an Ohio Hospital PCA position?

    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 an interview eventually: Recruiter and then the fl...
  18. Unhappy with CSCC...are there any alternatives?

    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 night [or two hours/day in addition to class time an...
  19. Unhappy with CSCC...are there any alternatives?

    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. First quarter is the closest you get to picking ...
  20. bsn starting salaries

    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 quarter starting after you're hired. Tuition discount...
  21. bsn starting salaries

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

    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 get a job there without some other foot in the door...
  23. Unhappy with CSCC...are there any alternatives?

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

    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 names allowed on here] who's going to do her thesis...
  25. Unhappy with CSCC...are there any alternatives?

    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 name-tag, 1 polo, 0 jackets =$86.00:) I was glad that I d...
