  1. Is this a HIPAA violation?

    virgo7598 replied to virgo7598's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Sorry I should've explained more in my question. I'm a nursing student and I was discussing this situation with friends and we disagreed on whether it'd be a violation. Say a nursing student says to...

  2. Retain CNA licensure?

    virgo7598 posted a topic in General Nursing

    So I'm knee deep in my nursing program at NHCC and realized that my CNA license expires this July. Does anyone know of a place where I can work the minimum 8 hours to keep my license? I don't work as...

  3. Changing NCLEX in March 2016?

    virgo7598 posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I was reading that the NCLEX is changing March of 2016. I am planning on taking my NCLEX late 2016. My question is what changes are being made? I want to begin reading over NCLEX review guides but I...

  4. Vital Signs Skills Return Demonstration

    virgo7598 replied to apedrique's topic in General Students

    I know how nerve wracking skills test out can be; I just finished my vitals test out a few weeks ago! As far as abnormal ranges, I suggest looking at your textbooks for that. I got mine out of our...

  5. Textbooks for first semester of MANE program

    virgo7598 posted a topic in General Nursing

    So I'm researching everywhere trying to see if I can find international editions or maybe used textbooks that will be cheaper for me than buying the bundle from the bookstore. The bundle from school...

  6. Textbook prices?

  7. Textbook prices?

    virgo7598 replied to virgo7598's topic in General Students

    Wow I guess the $360 for all the program textbooks is a good

  8. Textbooks for first semester of MANE program

    virgo7598 replied to virgo7598's topic in General Nursing

    That's what I thought too. I thought I remembered them saying at orientation that the bundle would be used for the BSN program too but I wasn't positive. Considering the fact that I can't seem to find...

  9. Textbook prices?

    virgo7598 replied to virgo7598's topic in General Students

    That's what I thought too. But I just found it so hard to believe that the school actually had the lowest price. Especially when I searched Amazon, AbeBooks, Valore, Ebay

  10. Possible relocation to MN?

    virgo7598 replied to itrust's topic in General Nursing

    Yeah Minnesota is okay. However I do miss the hustle and bustle of the city. Living in the Twin Cities just doesn't quite do it for me. BUT it is a very good place to be if you want to have a career...

  11. Possible relocation to MN?

    virgo7598 replied to itrust's topic in General Nursing

    Unfortunately I don't have any info on what you need...I just wanted to say hello as another NY/NJ native that moved to Minnesota!

  12. Reputations of IHCC/NHCC/other MANE schools?

    virgo7598 posted a topic in General Nursing

    I'm relatively new to Minnesota (been here 2 years) and I'm not aware of the reputations of the 2 schools I'm debating on going to, Inver Hills CC and North Hennepin CC. North Hennepin was my...

  13. Reputations of IHCC/NHCC/other MANE schools?

    virgo7598 replied to virgo7598's topic in General Nursing

    I'll be attending then as well! Nice to see someone else in the class

  14. Did I take the bait (for profit school)?

    virgo7598 replied to golson's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Does Century have an RN to BSN program as well? I was under the assumption all the CC in the MANE program allow you to continue on to Metro

  15. Did I take the bait (for profit school)?

    virgo7598 replied to golson's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thank you for your service! I am going to attending North Hennepin CC's nursing program starting in the Spring and plan on going forward with my Bachelor's. I was concerned as well about Metro State's...

  16. Spring 2015 MANE programs

    virgo7598 replied to Key Lime Pie's topic in General Nursing

    That's reassuring to know of their reputation. I'll be attending in the Spring! Good

  17. CNA testing

    virgo7598 replied to Peanut&Buttercup's topic in General Nursing

    You do not need to have your CNA before starting the MANE program at NHCC. I'm sure it'll be helpful though. I got mine last year and it was informative and good to know considering I'll be starting...

  18. Spring 2015 MANE programs

    virgo7598 replied to Key Lime Pie's topic in General Nursing

    Yup a $100 deposit that goes toward your tuition apparently. I sent mine in last week and just made it out to the school. After we send that in, we're supposed to be waiting on an email with more...

  19. Dealing with well-meaning but stupid questions?

    virgo7598 replied to feelslikefire's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    When I tell people I want to be a nurse and will be starting in the Spring..I think the most often thing I hear is "Why? Just be a

  20. Spring 2015 MANE programs

    virgo7598 replied to Key Lime Pie's topic in General Nursing

    Apparently they had finished going through their wait list and still had open spots. I guess quite a few people denied entry into the program for them to go through that many

  21. Some reassuring words for those worried about Metro State's NR program

    virgo7598 posted a topic in General Nursing

    I was worried about going to Metro State after reading some not so encouraging reviews. So I emailed my nursing adviser at NHCC and asked if it is a requirement that we have to complete the BSN...

  22. Yay I got into Nursing School. Now what?

    virgo7598 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    So I just found out yesterday that I was accepted into nursing school for January 2015! I'll be going for my ASN first and possibly my BSN after. I'm so excited to start but now I feel like I need to...

  23. Mane with MetroState

    virgo7598 replied to PTKChic's topic in General Nursing

    Just posted a new topic about Metro State from my nursing adviser if anyone wants to take a look.

  24. Mane with MetroState

    virgo7598 replied to PTKChic's topic in General Nursing

    I'm looking over my contract at NHCC and it doesn't say that you have to attend Metro State. It does say " plan to attend the MANE North Hennepin Nursing Program- Day Program starting January 2015. I...

  25. Mane with MetroState

    virgo7598 replied to PTKChic's topic in General Nursing

    The dual enrollment to Metro State is confusing to me. I understand that after going to CC we can go straight into BSN or just take the NCLEX, work for a bit, and then go back to MS to finish. But...
