I was diagnosed with MS at the age of 18, so I have been battling with that while in school. There are days that I don't think I can go, but my daughter *my inspiration* helps me to go on! So, when you don't think you can go on, just remember the rea...

YAY!!!! Congrats!!! Super happy for you!!! =)

When I was in clinicals we were given pt's by our instructor... The first few times we were put into groups of 2-3 and sent to take care of them. Then after that we were given our own pt each to take care of. If we needed help we would find someone i...

Possibly a position in BHI or a small unit somewhere where most of what you need to do is observe. I know it would be hard, since you're so used to OR, but I have MS too and it does get really hard to do anything! But, if you are diagnosed then hopef...

Maybe that will help very one else here to be able to say the same to that "one *or 2, or more* they have to deal with! You finally just get to where enough is ENOUGH! You can only take people's **** for so long before something is going to explode!!...

I'm hoping that is the case!!!I mean, I know you can apply to more than one kctcs school... Because I am at Big Sandy right now, that's where I got my CNA's but I'm also going to apply to Ashland! But if I can apply to RN and LPN that'll help me out ...

No, they prob wouldn't! They still wouldn't get it!!! If you're not in nursing, you won't ever get it!! Unless you were raised around it!! Then again, of you're raised around it you're not the open public then either! LOL!

Idk how to delete posts.... So ignore this one! I had read something wrong!!

I couldn't agree more!! I had girls in my CNA class change their minds after clinical's started.... One in particular said *right after the first day of them* that there was NO way she was going to be a nurse after that! All I realized was I don't wa...

Yes it is!! =)

You're starting on my birthday!!! =) Good luck to you all! I'll *hopefully* be starting next fall!! =)

See, having my daughter has helped me a LOT when it comes to cleaning up poop and vomit!! When I was young *like teens young and younger* my mom would clean my vomit because, well... She just did! Lol.. But now, having to do it all *I'm 26, soon to b...

During clinical's last semester *first clinicals* I was TERRIFIED I was going to have to record and report phlegm!!! However I lucked out then, and didn't have to.... At some point in my future clinical's I know it's coming, and I'm so scared of how ...

It hasn't been a "work" thing for me!! It's been a friend thing for me in a couple cases! Idk if it's because I'm doing something that they couldn't/didn't think they could do or what!! You would think they would be excited! But, no!

I was actually going to say basically the same thing!! While working why talk about other nurses/CNA's, talk about your personal life, or curse? It's just not ethical and just rude really!!! I know that for the poor pt's in LTC's it's difficult havin...

Where I live, at nursing homes they just have you fill out an app, but at hospitals it's all done online, but there's a place to upload a resume. I think after you trimmed it up though that it looks great. =) I liked the longer one too... But like ev...

Dependent is when you have to help support someone, put them in a wheelchair, etc. Nondependent is when someone is able to stand on their own and walk without support.

What kind of apps did they put on there??

They don't allow us to record any lectures!! =(

Yes, it's def doable!! I am a single mother of a 3 year old little girl, it's just me 24/7 and I only have 2 more classes I have to do! So, you can def do it!! You just have to have motivation and know that you need to do well! You have to have a hig...

I'd love to do that once I get out or NS! With my MS I have to have good benefits!!

We haven't started registration for fall yet, but I just have a couple prerequisite's before I can apply. I know I'll be taking A&P 1 this semester and then A&P 2 in the spring. That and 1 more psych class is all I need. That's when I'll be a...

I think you should do what YOU want to do with your life. I agree with the previous poster! Nursing school is very stressful, and that is never going to change. If you feel like you want to go back into nursing, then go for it! But you have to make s...

"However, she also told us that while we are there to remember that we are the students and that they are the staff. That we are not to question how they are doing their job. After all, there is "the way state wants things to be done, and the way the...

What's crazy is I had been considering the same. I already have my CNA certification though... So idk which would be a better choice for me. I know that here where I live EMT's make about the same...*some places make it to where EMT's would make less...
