  1. Azusa Pacific Online: Pre-Nursing Certificate

  4. What exactly is so bad about LTC??

    scurbro replied to MaybeaNurse7's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Gosh, I'm now scared about becoming a caregiver, I will basically help with the same things a C.N.A does if I get this job, but I won't be certified, so I probably will do a lot less then a CNA. I am...

    scurbro replied to PacoUSA's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    This problem is right where I am, and what I have posted on another post. I am considering all my options. I know there are bridge programs, so its not like I'm never going to get my BSN. I am just...

    scurbro replied to DisneyNurseGal's topic in General Students

    I am lucky that I know exactly where my immunization records are. They are with the hospital I have been with since I was a little girl. So all I have to do is have my Grandmother go to membership to...

    scurbro replied to ckinstle's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Western Governors University has an online program currently. As I see this was of 2008 and I'm sure the person who posted it has gotten her RN by now. I have been having this problem and I found WGU,...

  10. LPN to RN Online---Which is best

    scurbro replied to gwenwatson's topic in Ohio Nursing

    scurbro replied to thesundowner's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

  14. I don't want to be an RN

    scurbro replied to sakiohma's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I do not see the problem with being an LPN your whole career. I think its really sad that a lot of employers are more interested in RN's then LPN's. LPN's have a place, same with CNA, CMA's, PCT's...

    At my school I think its once maybe twice. This is required for either the traditional BSN and the Accelerated BSN. I am looking at the traditional as more viable because of the courses I need to...
