   infullbloom1 replied to ahamarq's topic in Colorado

   I have a psych background also and have been job hopping for a long time, until now. My job hopping has never come up. I think you will be just fine!! Good luck to you!

3. Denver School of Nursing

   infullbloom1 replied to adventuregirl's topic in Colorado

   After reading these posts, I just wanted to say, as someone who attended this school and recently graduated the LPN program, be careful when going beyond this level at this school. I passed the NCLEX, so obviously I learned something from the school...

4. Studying for NCLEX

   infullbloom1 replied to infullbloom1's topic in NCLEX

   Thanks for everyones input! I study with Saunders and it has helped me alot so far! I just graduated so I need a little break before I dive back into the book. If I dont take a break, I'll be too burned out to absorb anything!

5. Studying for NCLEX

   infullbloom1 posted a topic in NCLEX

   I take the NCLEX soon and have taken the week off of work prior to study for the NCLEX. Is one week with intense studying enough?? I planned on studying 8 hours (or more if needed) each day until I take it. I'm just worried that won't be enough! ...

6. Colorado Wait Lists?

   infullbloom1 replied to GirlCalledJack's topic in Colorado

   I have heard that PPCC has a shorter wait time than anywhere in the Denver area. I was on the waitlist for the LPN program there and ended up going to DSON. I had left myself on the waitlist at PPCC and was notified this summer that I got into the P...

7. Tom Cruises' take on Psychiatry

   infullbloom1 replied to Katydidit34's topic in Psychiatric

   I saw the interview and was expecting to hear about a movie that the actor was paid to make. His views on psychiatry do not interest me at all. Most people in the general public are smart enough to know that he is only an actor. He's entitled to h...

8. Is/Was Nursing school the "most grueling experience of your adult life"??

   infullbloom1 replied to secondfiddle's topic in General Students

   I thought it was tiring. I worked full time, nights, and went to school full time. But, I also have no children and no husband to care for so I probably had it easier than those that have the families to deal with. But, enjoying the material you a...

9. Client or patient?

   infullbloom1 replied to nursemike's topic in General Nursing

   "patient"- "client" is too business oriented for me.

10. New Graduates...

    infullbloom1 replied to ghost's topic in General Nursing

    I just graduated as an LPN(NCLEX not taken yet) and plan on specializing in woundcare after my RN. I think woundcare is fascinating because you can clearly see your results(or lack of) and there is alot of educating that goes on, both to staff and p...

11. What should nursing school admission requirements be?

    infullbloom1 replied to hope3456's topic in General Students

    I attend a small nursing school in Colorado and I would REALLY like to see schools test students on the english language. Not to offend anyone, but we have had two students who have a poor concept of the language- enough so that it is nearly impossi...

12. Interesting Online LPN to BSN

    infullbloom1 replied to fry.girl's topic in Online Learning

    Doesn't the website say you have to be an LPN licensed in Oklahoma? Maybe I misread it??

13. Any Suggestions for a 1st time Clinical Instructor???

    infullbloom1 replied to nightingale's topic in Educators

    As a student just finishing up my first year, I would say don't underestimate the students. Push them. Underestimating them is insulting to them and does nothing for their self-esteem. Its as if you are telling them that you don't think they are c...

14. NCLEX PN books - Any suggestions?

    infullbloom1 replied to ashemson's topic in General Students

    I agree- Saunders is the best by far. The CD-Rom really prepares you well for the NCLEX.

15. Kaiser Scholarship--hot

    infullbloom1 replied to hello_nurse's topic in General Nursing

    I am graduating in late June with my LPN and already have a job lines up with Kaiser. Can anyone tell me what the union dues are, or do they vary from state to state???
