  1. Can an MA legally supervise BSNs and RNs?

    ♑ Capricorn ♑ replied to mkol's topic in General Nursing

    Are you sure the doctor meant "Nurse Manager"? To me, I'd believe "Office Manager" but in no way would I feel an MA would be qualified for a Nurse Manager position. That just doesn't seem right to...

  5. Fall semester. AP2 and Micro together a bad idea?

    ♑ Capricorn ♑ replied to Hibbzem17's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes. :) It is doable. When I was taking my pre-reqs I took Micro and A&P II together, and it was fine. The only way you will know is when you try it. If you feel like you're taking on too much at...

    ♑ Capricorn ♑ replied to REWN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  8. CCAC Nursing school or possibly one of the others?

    ♑ Capricorn ♑ replied to Newme17's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    You'd need to contact the hospital school of nursing you wish to attend to find out if they will transfer. I know some hospital school's of nursing do offer night classes but i'm not familiar enough...

  10. Class Withdraws

    ♑ Capricorn ♑ replied to RNOrchid's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm not positive on this. But, I don't think withdrawls should affect an acceptance unless maybe it was a 'WF' withdrawl-failing. But, just a 'W', I don't see how that would affect it. If your grades...

  15. New Grad in need of Advice =(

    ♑ Capricorn ♑ replied to >--stethoscope--o's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Does the school you graduated from have any type of employment assistance? If so, I'd contact them and ask them about it. You can also try asking the place where you did your clinical practicuum or...

  16. Should I major in nursing or other science?

    ♑ Capricorn ♑ replied to ninjakat2115's topic in General Students

    First, you'll need to get your RN. In order to get your RN you will either need to complete an Associate degree program (ASN or ADN) or a 4 year degree (BSN). After you graduate from either of those,...

  18. The "Why don't you become a doctor" question

    ♑ Capricorn ♑ replied to AL1992's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    When I get asked, "Why not become a doctor?" I cringe everytime. Nursing and Medicine are two different entities to me. I want to spend time with patients. I want to be at bedside and see patients...

  20. new grad salaries

    ♑ Capricorn ♑ replied to mom2girls's topic in General Students

    I think that every location and hospital has different starting wages. This might be a good idea to ask this question under U.S./Washington D.C. nursing at the top of the page. If you haven't already....

    ♑ Capricorn ♑ replied to ivikatasha's topic in General Students

    Well, I can't speak for nursing school, yet. I won't be attending until this Fall. But, I can offer some tips which kept me sane during prereqs. 1) Buy a HUGE wall calendar and keep important dates...

  23. Got Accepted :)

    ♑ Capricorn ♑ replied to TnMtnRose's topic in General Students

    I think every nursing school is different as far as the scheduled clinical days and hours are concerned. This will be something you'll need to ask your school about. But, to just give you an example...
