    Difference between getting ADN, then BSN and going straight for BSN?

    LoveNeverDies replied to Mbro5's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Research your area. What is the hiring preference and needs of the places you will look at working? I did an ADN program because it was cheaper. (Roughly 8k cheaper a semester) I will be finishing my...

    OU spring 2015 RN-BSN

    LoveNeverDies replied to Excellia's topic in Ohio University

    I have been accepted to start in the Spring semester. I am sort of confused by your question. OU's program is based on semester hours, not quarter hours. Most of the classes are 3 or 4 credits, even...

    LoveNeverDies replied to Fruit Sucker's topic in General Students

    Graduated in May and I can attest that some Nursing schools are still teaching students their fundamentals in pt. care. (As it should be) If I would have left a patient dirty, went to get an aide to...

    LoveNeverDies replied to jjmorr69's topic in Ohio University

    Carlo_flash, did you accept your admission on OUs website? You have to accept or deny the admission offer. Any one that has started in the last 6 months or so, how long did it take to receive your...

    Good private schools to attend in California for nursing.

    LoveNeverDies replied to nicoleticzon's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would try applying to private and state schools. You know your situation best, but I would make sure to research the market for new grads, and income. You can find a lot of threads on here about...

    Mocked by teacher in post conference.

    LoveNeverDies replied to dmena14's topic in General Students

    Yikes! We are the bitter ones, I think not. You couldn't handle an altercation like an adult, and withdrew before you even tried to address it. You say your dignity is your first priority, I find no...

    LoveNeverDies replied to berhaelee's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I work in an ICU, two of my coworkers waitress on the weekends. They make more there, then they do during their 12 hour shift. Do what you have to do, do not let others opinions affect

    Fed up with being denied an ICU position

    LoveNeverDies replied to Flexx's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I know you probably did not mean anything offensive by this comment, but it down plays the work that some of us have done to get our positions, I was hired into the CCU directly out of school....

    Family and Obligations...I need to vent.

    LoveNeverDies replied to stacieprimus's topic in General Students

    That is quite unfortunate! I think your options are either saying no, or going to "bake" cookies and bring books and study. When they ask you to help just explain you have too much studying to do and...

    LoveNeverDies replied to Ruby Vee's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Ok, first off I would like to say I am in the age range of Heidi. New Nurse with a new speciality, and some of my coworkers even call me "bombshell." So I guess I would be expected to support her, yet...

    LoveNeverDies replied to funtimes's topic in Patient Care Technician, Assistants

    I have been a tech, if a Nurse asked me to do something that I could not I would respond with a simple explanation, but not a "no". If you see a Nurse that assigned you with 5 tasks sitting down in...

    BSN programs are harder than ADN

    LoveNeverDies replied to ExpBrittany's topic in General Students

    OP, I am not offended by your opinion at all. In my experience it comes down to the school. I went to a private college my first year, roughly about 15,000k (with a 50% off grant). However, the ease...

    Harsh nurses

    LoveNeverDies replied to binzy's topic in LPN, LVN Students
