  8. JJC 2013 Spring Nursing Applicants ?

    PurplePRN replied to Gstar's topic in Illinois Nursing

    I think it was stated that there were 100 less, not 100 total. In asking the difference between 140 and the CNA course, I meant the courses themselves. Like, for 140, do you have to take all the CNA...

    PurplePRN replied to Gstar's topic in Illinois Nursing

    I'm curious what the difference is between the CNA classes, and Nurs. 140? If I weren't to get in, I will take one of those and Statistics next

    PurplePRN replied to Gstar's topic in Illinois Nursing

    How do you get all this great info? LOL! Thanks for sharing! I'm actually not worried about it anymore. I had a life event happen in the last couple weeks that really put things into perspective. So...

    raqi89 ~ Thank you for the input! I hope to find a group as positive as yours! Does anyone know if they send rejection emails as well as acceptance ones? That would stink to see people getting...

    PurplePRN replied to HeartsOpenWide's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I was a CNA when this happened. A rather large woman asked me to scratch her butt and she pulled herself over on the side rails to lift her bottom to a more attainable position for me. I was super...

    PurplePRN replied to radicalsenseofhope's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'd be curious to know the stats on how many nurses leave the field and enter into a new one. Because for all the things I hear about how bad nursing is now, I don't see anyone quitting. Just an...

    PurplePRN replied to Gstar's topic in Illinois Nursing

    I asked for days. I hope it get it! I absolutely can't do nights. I'm pretty much a single mom and my kids are in school all day. They need a

  16. CNA credentials expired.....retest? or take courses again?

    PurplePRN posted a topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I wasn't sure where the best location for my post was. I just can't decide what move to make here. I took classes to be a CNA 20 years ago. Yikes! I worked in a LTC facility, then home health, in a...

    PurplePRN replied to radicalsenseofhope's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Some men don't like to lose control. Just a thought for you to ponder. Again, may not be your situation. But if you don't control much of anything accept where to store the canned goods in your house....

  19. CNA credentials expired.....retest? or take courses again?

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

    LOL! Hoyers were people powered when I was a CNA. I'm only doing this to eliminate another class from my roster while in nursing school. We are required to take an advanced CPR class before school...

    PurplePRN replied to radicalsenseofhope's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I wanted to come back and add something. I believe the comedian who said this was George Lopez. He was talking about family. He said it's like everyone you know and love is in a hole. And when one...

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

    LOL! That's such a funny story! It is showing up on my paperwork that I must shave a real patient to pass. I'm going to start calling proctors this week and see what is in store for me. I know I was...

    PurplePRN replied to Gstar's topic in Illinois Nursing

    Okay, thanks for the info! I didn't realize you got points for CNA. I'm so sorry you are upset about your final score. I wouldn't lose hope if what the proctor said is true. You still have a chance....

    PurplePRN replied to Gstar's topic in Illinois Nursing

    Bella2BRN.........So, there were 100 less applicants this time? That would be awesome!!! And by 78, what do you mean? Was that the lowest score accepted? Or the average score accepted? Ack, I hate...

    PurplePRN replied to Gstar's topic in Illinois Nursing

    I was so nervous, I barely read the test. Sounds crazy, right? I think I did okay though. We will see. I did best in reading and science. I hope if I get in, I can find a nice group of ladies to study...
