  1. Bedside... Really?

    Jennie.K posted a topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Hey guys! Do any of you all know of a CNM program that does not require one to be an RN first or do bedside nursing? After doing a lot of research, I really don't think bedside nursing is for me....

  3. Bedside... Really?

    Jennie.K replied to Jennie.K's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Thank you for the info! I have narrowed it down to either Frontier or Georgetown. Since I am still working on my BSN, I am going to stay open to which grad school to go to. I also spoke with my...

  4. Bedside... Really?

    Jennie.K replied to Jennie.K's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    A lot of the programs I have spoken with will accept students with any hospital experience. They understand that L&D units are really hard to get into. Also, Georgetown told me that they will not...

    Jennie.K replied to Jennie.K's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Thank you for the reply! I didn't look at it like that. I think I was just trying to find a speedy way to get to the end. However, experience takes time. Who knows, I may find that I love bedside...

  8. Bedside... Really?

    Jennie.K replied to Jennie.K's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    That is not what is making my mind up, which I am still at a cross road. Sorry if it seemed as though I was only utilizing crowd-sourcing as my primary information route - not the case. Obliviously,...

  9. Bedside... Really?

    Jennie.K replied to Jennie.K's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Thank you so much for the info! I am actually more interested in the prenatal care than I am actually delivering the babies. At first, I was looking into becoming an OB-GYN; however, after some...

  10. Nobody told me that after graduation...

    Jennie.K replied to smclean27's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with this. It will give you experience and pay most, if not all, your student loan

  11. 6-Year Plan!?!

    Jennie.K replied to SAHM23Boys's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Jennie.K replied to ed25's topic in Nursing Career

  13. Philosophy

    Jennie.K replied to professionalgirl80's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took Intro to Philosophy online and it was a lot of reading and discussion boards. Surprisingly, I really enjoyed the class. I thought it was fun to argue different topics from different...

    Jennie.K posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi All!! I wanted to start a new thread to see if there are any other military spouses out there. I am about to start my last semester of prereqs for the BSN program close to Fort Hood. I am so...

  15. Any other MilSpouses with concerns?

    Jennie.K replied to Jennie.K's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    HA! I was originally going to school for teaching; but, since TX has put a hold on hiring public teachers, I thought I should look into other careers. The responsibility nurses have terrified me at...

  16. Need advice about my schedule: too much?

    Jennie.K replied to Pattycakes85's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would make sure the General Bio will transfer. Most likely, it will; but you will need to make sure. Now, for how challenging the schedule will be. Introductory level bio and chem are pretty easy....

  17. Quitting during Orientation!!?? Help!!

    Jennie.K replied to Roskarin's topic in Nursing Career

    Also, in some states, hospitals use private companies to screen potential employees. If your name lands on the "should not hire" list, you will not be able to get a job at any hospital that uses that...

  18. Quitting during Orientation!!?? Help!!

    Jennie.K replied to Roskarin's topic in Nursing Career

    Never burn bridges. Once, in high school, I had a well paying office job. However, being young, I quit without notice and that placed me on the do not rehire list. Then, about 4 years later, I tried...

    Jennie.K replied to mugwump's topic in Ob/Gyn

    This is so interesting! With both my children, (I had c-sections) the dr pulled baby out, showed me baby, baby was weighed and all that. Then, went to the nursery with dad and had bath. Then they...

  22. Any other MilSpouses with concerns?

    Jennie.K replied to Jennie.K's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Jennie.K replied to Jennie.K's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  24. Medical Terminology Course before A&P??

    Jennie.K replied to xamirot's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've never taken medical terminology. However, I did get an A in A&P. Extra classes never hurt; but I don't think it is

  25. Advice please!

    Jennie.K replied to HisTiming's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think it depends on how demanding your other classes will be. Also, a lot of schools won't let you take them together. If you have good study habits, I don't think you will have a
