Davita was my livelyhood for many years before I got tired of the horribly understaffed, dangerous working conditions and "number crunching". And when I say understaffed I don't mean short on hired employees, I'm referring to workers getting cut earl...

I just quit Davita a couple months ago after 5 years, this doesn't surprise me one bit. Kudos for that doc and rn for taking a stand.

Hello all! Advice from other students or nurses would greatly be appreciated! Here's my situation; I currently work part-time as a dialysis tech, and am attending a local university in hopes of applying to their BSN program... I am now REALLY second ...

Thanks! I would like to eventually get my BSN, it would be great if I could do RN to BSN right after getting my ASN.

Hello Dedicated! I've been a dialysis tech for 5 years, and am a pre-nursing student also. I would recommend you go for it! Yes it is very fast-paced, the days are long, and dialysis is definitely not for everyone, but the experience you'll gain will...

Thanks! Good luck to you too!

I'm taking chem I&II, and micro. Yeah I haven't seen to many other Wayne students on here, seems they come out of the woodwork around the time admission decisions are being made. :)

......and yes, I'll be happy to get the pay increase and solely support my family.

I've been in patient care for almost a decade now, I've progressed from a phleb, to M.A., to PCT.... finally becoming a nurse seems like the logical next step for me. I never had a "calling", nor do I have a strong desire to save the world. I just lo...

I've found a lot of info about Wayne State on here, the admissions staff at the CON are very helpful too. Jelson, have you been to an info session yet? I missed the last one because I was out of town, but plan on going to the next one in September. W...

Hello! I'm planning on applying for the traditional BSN. I've taken a lot of my pre-reqs already at HFCC, and will be starting at WSU in a couple weeks!

There's a volunteer clinic in my area that treats the working uninsured, which is ran by a local (but large) health system, which gets it's funding from various sources (private and GOVT grants). The docs and MA's all work voluntarily, most hold full...

Hello all! I've been working as a PCT for Davita for 3 years, and am curious about working for Fresenius... Anyone on here ever work for, or are currently working for, this company? If so, how do you like it? Or better yet, has anyone here worked for...

Hello! Monroe County CC has an LPN program, so does Schoolcraft but I think they have a long wait. Also there's the Riverview Institute LPN program through Oakland U.... Good luck!

Hello all! I am in the pre-nursing program at HFCC, all the pre-reqs I need to wrap up before being put on the waiting list are Chem 131 and the NET exam, which I'm planning on doing in the winter semester.. Here's my question, I was told by an advi...

Hello! Chiming in here..... Do you know what the cutoff GPA is?

Any info on this? Couldn't find much online, guess it's still pretty new.... Anyone applied to the program or are enrolled? TIA! :)

Hi Sunflower! Hmmm I have those but my psych might not meet the 5 year cutoff.... Thanks for checking it out, I'm going to call that number and see if I can get a little more info on it. I'm wondering how much tuition is... This program would be grea...

Congrats on getting in! Good luck! :)

I'm going to! I've asked around and keep hearing different on this matter, I wanna hear it from the horses mouth! If I can't take those classes either on campus or online in spring/summer then I may have to take them elsewhere.... :uhoh21:

I feel your pain! I have researched every college with a nursing program (ADN&BSN) within a 100 mile radius of Detroit... I've studied every application process thoroughly... Compared transfer credits... Even paid a few of the schools a visit.. O...

I'll most likely end up taking it online then, I may even attempt chem online too..... I really dont want to put these classes off any longer than I have to, especially chem because I'm hoping to get on the waiting list this summer! Also, are they...

Thanks for the info!

Really? I knew they were doing the re-mod but didn't stop to think they wouldn't be having classes... :/ Thanks for the heads up!

Sorry it was Bio 134 not 130....
