Thanks for the response! I appreciate it just not sure about how the 12 hour shifts would be scheduled...

Is a unit secretary position a good position for a pre nursing student? If I did get the job I would be leaving a great paying job, but the end results would be so worth it! And any examples of what a 12 full time schedule would look like? Thanks guys I appreciate all your help I love this site! And also I would be leaving a retail mgr job.. Do you think I will have a good chance at getting this position?

Thanks! I was looking at on-line certifications for tele techs..that you can do at your own pace..do I need to have previous coursework you think?

Hello everyone, I am so glad I found this site. So I am a 30 yr old assistant manager at a large retail pharmacy. For a while I have been thinking of nursing..as a kid I wanted to be a scientist and always loved science. So I have decided to start weighing my options. I have a degree in business management, but I have realized that this is just a job to me; I need a career that I love with a passion! So here is my situation. I would love to be able to go to school full time and work a part time job or full time if the hours work with my school schedule. I realize that I will be taking a large pay cut.. but you have to sacrifice somethings in order to get where you want to be. Does anyone have any ideas on how or what I can do to make this happen. I want a job in the medical feild, but I have no prior medical experience. My local hospital has a position open for a telemetry tech. I need this job or something similar. Any advice, on how I can possibly get into an health care job with no experience? Any online certifications? Also I will be meeting with my local university on the 26th to discuss my options for their nursing program. Any advice is welcomed and appreciated... Thanks in advance!
