  1. White Scrubs - CNA Clinicals

    Nienna Celebrindal replied to rndreams14's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Yup a skin tone (whatever yours is) bra and or tank top, and large undies. I don't think you need granny panties, but like boy cut underwear. LOL I remember a girl showing up in a hot pink thong and...

  2. Did You Go Into Nursing For One Specialty?

    Nienna Celebrindal replied to Satori77's topic in General Nursing

    I personally tell people not to get to attached to a specialty before school or even during and right after because of two reasons: 1) It may prevent you from seeing how another specialty could be...

  3. How Does This Happen?

    Nienna Celebrindal replied to brown eyed girl's topic in General Students

    This sounds like an instructor issue more than a student issue. I have instructors throw out questions that the majority of the students miss because they feel that is 3/4 of the class can't answer it...

  4. Survey on infant male circumcision

    Nienna Celebrindal replied to wtbcrna's topic in General Nursing

    You clearly have one opinion on this an nothing anyone says will change your mind which is fine. But laughing at me because yes I don't live or work in Alaska is idiotic. And it is not an advocated...

  5. Survey on infant male circumcision

    Nienna Celebrindal replied to wtbcrna's topic in General Nursing

    Just because we don't run naked anymore doesn't mean that skin doesn't still need to be protected. Have you seen the head of a member of an uncirc'd man and a circ'd man? The skin does not look the...

  6. Survey on infant male circumcision

    Nienna Celebrindal replied to wtbcrna's topic in General Nursing

    I will never understand the whole, my son needs to look like his father. My FIL was not circ'd, my husband was. Per my husband this was never a concern to him. My sons are not circ'd and they have...

  7. Why would they push the deadline back?

    Nienna Celebrindal replied to Jen_Loves_Nursing's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Well I hate to say this but SCHOOLS LIE. They just do and NOTHING is set in stone. NOTHING. My Mom teaches an top RN program at a great university and let me tell you nursing programs are a hot mess....

  8. Interviewing - do I mention I'm working?

    Nienna Celebrindal replied to seconddegreebsn's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Absolutely put it on your resume, be prepared to address it professionally (which is tough to do). I highly recommend going to youtube and searching RN interviews, you will find sooo much outstanding...

  9. Cali new grad RN

    Nienna Celebrindal replied to UltraT's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Yes and that is especially true in Northern California but not as true in Southern California. They do hire New Grads here but its insanely competitive and you HAVE to be in their New Grad

  10. BSN Required or Not? Share your job search experience please

    Nienna Celebrindal replied to Lurdes777's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    It depends on where you go, as others have stated brick and mortar schools often have unadvertised online RN to BSN programs. I know A LOT of nurses who did University of Phoenix. I have heard Grand...

  13. Taking Micro and A&P concurrently

    Nienna Celebrindal replied to MelissaLeannaLPN's topic in LPN to RN

    I honestly think it's a bad idea. You have to have solid As in these classes. They are killers. I wouldn't do this even if you didn't have to

  14. LVN-ADN // LVN-BSN

    Nienna Celebrindal replied to Natasha A.'s topic in LPN to RN

    You are going to need pre-reqs period. Some schools offer them though as part of their program. Look into Galen. They have several locations. I have several friends who went to their school in St....

  15. Confused

    Nienna Celebrindal replied to Nisha77's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    What about a degree in Hospital

  16. What does this mean?

    Nienna Celebrindal replied to Natasha A.'s topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree call the BRN. California has VERY strict reciprocity requirements. You don't want to not be able to transfer your license here. I personally think moving away from home while you are young us...

  17. Paramedic, RN, or something else?

    Nienna Celebrindal replied to c27_AEMT's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  20. better to do ASN at a community college?

    Nienna Celebrindal replied to mangoman's topic in General Students

    IMO there is no one right answer to this question because there are great and horrible of all 3. What matters is NCLEX pass rates. Will all credits transfer for BSN? Cost Convenience. If the program...

  21. Working while in nursing program with 2 children (9 y.o. & currently 10 mo.)

    Nienna Celebrindal replied to AnGB's topic in General Students

    I worked 3 twelve hour shifts. It's tough but doable. As others said time management is key. So is planning and cutting back things that are not a priority (Internet, friends, etc). oh i had a 3 year...

    Nienna Celebrindal replied to RubyRabbit's topic in LPN to RN

    Nienna Celebrindal replied to maryadubi's topic in LPN to RN

  24. Lvn-RN 30 unit option CA

    Nienna Celebrindal replied to tawnyalee's topic in LPN to RN

    Most schools will not admit you into a BSN program if you do the 30 unit option because you have no degree. Tread very carefully before chose this and make sure you have a program to go too. Get it...
