I just graduated from Bluegrass community and technical college. I had to move from Cincinnati to Lexington to get into nursing school. Even then it took 3 years to complete an associate degree program. Have you looked into Galen, NKU, or Gateway? I'm in Florence also and didn't think there would be any trouble at all with finding a job. I have applied and applied and my brain is fried from it all. I just don't have any connections or know anyone around here. I am stuck with no job, no money, no friends, and declining self-confidence because I am afraid I will not perform skills as I have no lab or equipment to practice with... I will help answer any questions you have, maybe it will help me feel like I have a purpose after all. Good luck! -Jeremiah
