Nurse Alissa

Does anyone know where I can take CNA course over the summer in the New Orleans area? Im on the Northshore, but Im willing to travel far to get this. Please let me know.. I cant find anything and the CNA Registry wants me to pay $18 for them to mail ...

Has anyone heard of Delta College (either in Baton Rouge or Covington)?? Im thinking of their LPN classes... Thanks!

Oh wow, $45 an hour!? How can an lpn make that kind of money? Since I first posted this message, I started the rn program at Charity (only to realize nursing isnt for me!) Anyways, RN starts at $21/hr in Cov.

Has anyone attended BRG for their RN? I know they offer an RN diploma but can anyone tell me about their clinical\class rotations? Thanks so much!! Alissa

I know this is probably the least of everyones worries, but I just got to thinking... Whats going to happen to Charity School of Nursing? I was just in my frist semester, but I know the school is probably no more good... Ive heard they flooded really...

I think I had spoke to Mrs White, but like you said, since it is the begining of the semester, everyone is running around like chickens with their heads cut off! Good news is Spring Orientation isnt until like the last week of Dec or first of Jan, so...

Keep calling... thats all I can tell you to do! They told me the same thing, and guess what? I didnt hear anything back from them. I do know, however, that at orientation there *were* waiting list people, so they somehow got there... Keep buggin the...

Hey, I will be starting Wed as well... Im a littler nervous but mostly excited to just get started! What clinical advisor do you have? I have St. Romain.

The less expensive company, too.. lol

Yes, its Delgado/Charity School of Nursing Anyone else getting a little nervous?? I have yet to get my liability insurance... I need to get moving!

Yes, from what I have been told by nursing recruiters, hospitals care where you went to school. I had a meeting with Delta today, and they said they couldnt promise that thier program would be honored at another school if I wanted to do LPN-Rn.... I...

I am starting this Aug. I thought the night students could use the garage... the day students have a waiting list.

Im on the Northshore too, and here and there are like night and day! Im having second thoughts as well, but Im going during the day. I think you can park in the garage at night tho...

Are you attending this school? Im scared to get into this program because I spoke to a nursing recruiter and she said they are reluctant to hire from the school because "they dont know what type of product they will produce".... What is an average st...

Am I the only one who gets freaked out about the location of the school? Im not originally from Louisiana, nor do I go on the southshore often, so it was a little much for me to handle. The parking! The environment! Please tell me Im not alone here -...

All I can say is THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU DECAF!! I had wanted the HP, but was skiddish because of the price. I would NEVER have known about the sale at Office Depot unless I read your post and I went out an got it today. PLUS, if you go to thei...

Thanks!

Can someone provide the names of all these programs you have and where we can go about getting them? Im planning on getting a PDA for clinicals, but I dont know where to find the programs. Thanks!!

LOL tell me about it! You said that you heard good things about Mrs St. Romain? Is she a fair teacher? Like if I have problems, is she one that would help or send you to the wolves?

I am going to try to do my clinicals in Covington, although I have not heard good things about that teacher. I am trying to avoid traveling as much as I possibly can. I managed to get metered parking right outside the school, but I dont know how ofte...

Hi guys -- I will be starting in Aug as well. I just went to advising today, and Im already freaking out. Hello -- Parking?! It does seem like we have a lot to do, but Im excited. Im from the Northsore and today was my frist trip to that area, and bo...

Im looking into buying the HP Ipaq Mobile Media Companion PDA For Sale at Circuit City. Its a bit expensive, but I get a mp3 player and its wifi compatable, which means I can surf the internet. Its got 56k mem built in, but can expand to 1 gig, and...

Thats what I take, 1 tab a day, everyday. As per the posts above, yes stress affects outbreaks, but being stress-free will not completely stop outbreaks. Fever blisters are caused by the herpes simplex virus, which you can get from oral contact wit...

Just tell your doctor.. I did and he put me on something called Acyclovir (sp) and I havent had one in 2 months.
