1. CNA Job-Hunting Tips

   SugarBabe99 posted a topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

   Hi, I'm looking to enroll in a CNA program soon and hopefully obtain employment afterward. I had a few questions in mind that I was hoping someone with CNA experience could help with. 1. Do you need...

2. The life cycle of a CNA forum member

   SugarBabe99 replied to fuzzywuzzy's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

   Well, 3 months is understandable -- 3 months should be plenty of time to get the hang of a job and learn how to do it well. If someone can't learn the basics of a job in 3 months, then more than...

3. Veterinary Technician or RN?

   SugarBabe99 replied to SugarBabe99's topic in Nursing Career

   Now, I might not be absolutely correct on this - but from the research I've done, it depends on the facility you're applying for more than anything else. Some want those with prior...

4. Veterinary Technician or RN?

   SugarBabe99 replied to SugarBabe99's topic in Nursing Career

   Yeah, like I said, the main reason why I'm not entirely decided on VT is because 1. it doesn't make as much money as RN and 2. I'm still not sure I don't want to be an RN yet. I'm thinking of becoming...

5. Veterinary Technician or RN?

   SugarBabe99 replied to SugarBabe99's topic in Nursing Career

   Hehe. Yeah, that might be a good idea. I really think that being a veterinary technician is a wonderful job, really the only downsides are 1. It doesn't pay as much and 2. doesn't offer as many...

6. Veterinary Technician or RN?

   SugarBabe99 replied to SugarBabe99's topic in Nursing Career

   Really? I've always thought of a vet tech as being like an animal nurse, but your mileage may vary. I think vet assistant or kennel assistant is more comparable to CNA than a vet tech. Vet techs tend...

7. Veterinary Technician or RN?

   SugarBabe99 posted a topic in Nursing Career

   I'm having trouble deciding between the two careers and I'm wondering if someone else was ever, or is, in the same spot. On one hand, I love animals and working with them (my first job was at a...

8. Worked for 2 days, required to list on app?

   SugarBabe99 replied to SugarBabe99's topic in General Nursing

   I was given the forms on my 2nd day but said I wanted to take them home to fill out with my husband... but never even got to that point because just a few minutes later I was told things would not...

9. Worked for 2 days, required to list on app?

   SugarBabe99 posted a topic in General Nursing

   If I worked at a job for 2 days, didn't even get as far as filling out my W-4 forms, and then was let go, am I required to list it on any future applications or resumes? I'd assume no, due to the fact...

10. Involuntary Psych Ward Commitment

    SugarBabe99 replied to SugarBabe99's topic in General Nursing

    I would, but I don't have the money. All the background checks I've found online cost money and I'm dirt broke right

11. Involuntary Psych Ward Commitment

    SugarBabe99 replied to SugarBabe99's topic in General Nursing

    Thank you guys for your help, I really appreciate it. I am feeling a bit better now. What these people were claiming was that when it's a government-mandated stay, that can be somehow be found with a...

12. Involuntary Psych Ward Commitment

    SugarBabe99 replied to SugarBabe99's topic in General Nursing

    That's what I thought, that it wouldn't show up unless there were criminal charges involved, which wasn't true in my case. However, these people were claiming that if it's a government-mandated,...

13. Involuntary Psych Ward Commitment

    SugarBabe99 posted a topic in General Nursing

    Not sure if this is exactly the right forum for this, but if you were involuntary committed to a psych ward, can that affect your chances of getting licensed/obtaining employment? Some people were...

14. History of psych ward stays

    SugarBabe99 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have a dilemma. Back in 2010, I was hospitalized and put in the psych ward for a week following a suicide attempt. I'm planning on applying for nursing school next year and hopefully becoming a...

15. The life cycle of a CNA forum member

    SugarBabe99 replied to fuzzywuzzy's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    ... so let me get this straight. You fire someone just for ASKING if they can possibly be moved to a different shift? I mean, I'm sorry but that seems unusually harsh to me. Maybe they have...
