I am so glad this was a helpful post. I know that I can't be the only one concerned about my post-DSN career. Thanks for the California information RNnewgrad. I am actually from SoCal, and plan to...
Hi All, I am in the ADN RN (graduate June 2007) program at DSN. I was about to withdraw recently, because I was afraid that other nursing schools would not admit me to their BSN, or graduate nursing...
Thank you for your responses! Even with so much job related discussion in this forum, it's hard to understand exactly what people do at work, and how they feel about it. Any LPN's or OB Techs, I...
Dear Nurses, Thank you so much for sharing your experience and advice. I have a few questions, for any LPN's who may be out there, working in prenatal, intrapartum, and/or post delivery care. Are...

Hi There, I am not a CO native, but I do live in Evergreen. We absolutely love it here! I am in nursing school in Denver, and my husband works in Golden. I have worked as a CNA at various hospitals...

Just wanted to back up Tlackey regarding the quality of my experience at DSON. I feel the same as she does about the program so far. I was fairly nervous regarding the lack of accredidation...

Hi Dana, I just started the LPN program last week. I went with the Sallie Mae loan, as we just bought our house and don't have much equity yet. Home equity is probably better though, because the SM...
Hi Tracy! Good to hear from another DSON'er. I never even went on a wait list at the community colleges, Regis, or UCHSC. I moved here from CA last summer, and did a little research from there on...

Thanks for the support! I actually did just resign from my CNA position. I am in no way discouraged to become a nurse however. My classes start in June, and until then I will be traveling and...
