   amandakash replied to GamerGirL337's topic in General Nursing

   The second degree program at UK is NOT accellerated. It takes 2.5 years to complete. If you want an accelerated program look at EKU, U of L, NKU, or

2. What do you think? Bellarmine, chances at EKU

   amandakash replied to hopeful15's topic in General Nursing

   If you're going to do the UK program - have you thought about their second degree option? It's not accelerated so you would still have more time to spend with your girls. I'm in the ABSN at EKU...

   amandakash replied to sophie<3's topic in General Nursing

   Yes, you have to take BIO 137 and 139 though. There is a lecture and a lab component for both of them. Shirley Whitescarver is the best. Hands down. I love her. There are separate classes you can...

   amandakash replied to sophie<3's topic in General Nursing

   I don't know how much they weigh them against each other if that is what you're asking. If you are apply for the 2nd degree you have to have all of the pre-reqs done before you start the program and...

6. HawthoRNe

   amandakash replied to nalaa83's topic in Nursing Humor

   I've been watching Hawthorne from the beginning and it's good. I preferred Mercy only because the acting was 1000x better. I'm not a nurse yet, but I feel like the roles in Hawthorne may be more...

7. BCTC vs. UK CNA Class

   amandakash replied to amandakash's topic in General Nursing

   That's great since I haven't been able to find an AHA offering within an hour of me in the time that I need it completed. Grrrrrrr... But that's another issue for another day. Red Cross is good...

8. Moving to Lexington..Nursing schools?

   amandakash replied to GamerGirL337's topic in General Nursing

   Just FYI - UK's BSN program is NOT accelerated. I was deciding between UK and EKU and that was really the dividing line for me. EKU is much cheaper, and even though I will be driving from Lexington,...

9. BLS vs. CPR/AED??

   amandakash replied to eyoliver's topic in General Nursing

   I'm enrolled in a Red Cross CPR for healthcare professionals class for my nursing program. The cert. is good for two years and it costs $80. The AHA BLS for healthcare professionals isn't as readily...

10. BCTC vs. UK CNA Class

    amandakash replied to amandakash's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks for your input so far. I think I'm going to stick with BCTC. I was just wondering if there is a fundamental difference between the BLS offered at UK and the CPR for healthcare providers that...

    amandakash replied to 86toronado's topic in General Students

    This is so great!! I was admitted to an accelerated BSN program to start this August and I could not be more excited/terrified. I'm always looking for tip sheets so this is fantastic. Thank you so...

12. BCTC vs. UK CNA Class

    amandakash posted a topic in General Nursing

    Hey all - I'm currently signed up to take BCTC's CNA class in the fall but I know that UK offers one as well. It's more expensive but it includes BLS which BCTC does not. I'm already planning on...

13. Calling all EKU BSN or ABSN students

    amandakash replied to kyexplorer's topic in General Nursing

    WOW! Thank you so much for your response! It was all I could have asked for and more. I'm just so nervous about starting that I'm trying to be all OCD and being as prepared as possible. I hope...

14. ADN vs. BSN

    amandakash replied to amandakash's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    !! I didn't mean to bring up such a sore subject! I am already enrolled in a BSN program so that's not an issue, I just didn't know if it made a difference to employers, just out of curiosities...

15. ADN vs. BSN

    amandakash posted a topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    I'm going back for an accelerated second bachelor's in nursing. I've been hearing a lot about how there is no difference in pay for ADN vs. BSN since they are both licensed RNs. I don't much care...
