  1. Does anyone know anything about KVCTC? Anything would be appreciated. Thanks :)
  2. Ohio University Southern RN program?

    Congratulations! I wish you the best :)
  3. Ohio University Southern RN program?

    Sounds good. Make sure to post back and let me know if you get in )
  4. Ohio University Southern RN program?

    St. Mary's has always been known to be a good program. I would definitely try applying there. You may also consider Collins Career Center. They have an LPN program and it seems to be easier to get into LPN school first and then do the LPN to RN bridg...
  5. Ohio University Southern RN program?

    I definitely understand your frustration. One thing I can say about OU is that they don't care about your family problems or money issues. They could care less if you have to travel several hours to a clinical, you better be there on time. Did you sp...
  6. Ohio University Southern RN program?

    I re-read that you mentioned your ACT's. You have to take the ACT's for OU-Southern, too. At least I had to give them a copy of my scores and I had over 4 years of college classes since I took the ACT. I know that waiting a year does not see like it ...
  7. Math cal exam

    If you post some problems or at least a type of calculation you are having difficulty with I would be more than happy to help if I can. :)
  8. Ohio University Southern RN program?

    Also, I don't think that this is your ONLY option. I would strongly suggest you look on the Ohio Board of Nursing website and research other programs before you limit yourself to Ohio University-Southern.
  9. Ohio University Southern RN program?

    You could attend the OU-Chillicothe campus. I have heard some better comments on this program, but the general complaints come from all OU campuses. The classes at OU are hard. The content is very challenging (but that isn't the problem) and the inst...
  10. Ohio University Southern RN program?

    First, the program is NOT easy to get into. They accept almost 100 people, so it is easier than it has been in the past, but they still turn many people away. There are four components to the application: your grades, your interview, your essay and ...
  11. Rocephin Question

    I would not recommend Decadron PO. I speak from experience. It is absolutely the MOST NASTY medicine I have ever tasted. The nurse that gave it to me told me that they use the same formula for both IM and PO routes. I don't know if I can even describ...
  12. May give up my dream of being a nurse

    If your school does not provide residential housing it is within the guidelines to use financial aid for housing. Keep your head up and keep looking. Call your local Department of Health and Human Resources (some states use different names for the ag...
  13. May give up my dream of being a nurse

    I started looking into a few things for you and I found that Kent State University offers an ADN program at several of their campuses. While only the Kent campus offers student housing, the Tuscarawas campus offers some off-campus housing resources. ...
  14. May give up my dream of being a nurse

    Where do you live?
  15. NCLEX 3000 download?

    This link is for the institutional version. If you are only using it for yourself then you won't need this. This is for schools to purchase for their students.
  16. A "chick's" perspective on Men in Nursing

    I agree with this 100%. I'm not a male nurse, but there are several male nurses in my program. They get whatever they want. In clinicals .. they just have to look at the nurses on the unit and smile - they don't have to do a single thing. :) Doesn't ...
  17. Mobile Apps at work/clinicals

    I used my cell phone ALL the time in clinicals. We were required to buy Skyscape and expected to have it available if we needed to research something during clinicals. I NEVER used my phone in front of a patient (and I'm thinking that nurse shouldn't...
  18. Mountain State University LPN-BSN program Info please

    The student that I spoke with lives in Huntington, WV and is 7 hours (without traffic) away from DC. I also know another student that is at least a year away from graduation and her instructors have said, "We'll figure something out". That doesn't so...
  19. Is taking diuretics equals having CHF?

    The only condition that equals congestive heart failure is congestive heart failure (in fact, there is a theory of thought that is using the term heart failure and differentiating between left and right instead of the term congestive heart failure). ...
  20. Cheap Scrubs in Milton, WV

    ladies plus in milton, wv has new and used scrubs for cheap!!!! (only 5-10 minutes past the huntington mall) new scrubs $10 used scrubs $7.50 **they also consign women and children's clothing. they seriously have the cutest scrubs and the prices are...
  21. Mountain State University LPN-BSN program Info please

    I was told by a current student that no class will be able to graduate from any of their LPN-BSN cohort programs due to their accreditation being pulled. They have been on probation for a long time. Honestly, I have heard nothing but horrible things ...
  22. i have learned most of my knowledge from just doing it. my clinical instructors started from the very first clinical and now that i have just finished my last clinical i'm much better - definitely not the best though. for a general note i like to ke...
  23. Backpack for school

    I use a messenger bag from LLBean. I don't remember exactly how much it cost, but I am thinking somewhere around $65. It holds a ton of stuff. I have fit both volumes of my MedSurg textbook, my Maternity textbook, 2 five star binders, an agenda, drug...
