    Brinley replied to eden's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Brinley replied to GirlCalledJack's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    cheerfuldoer.. take a list at the courses for my program.. this is how most of the programs in the state I am in look? I am wondering if the OP school includes more instruction in the nursing...

    Brinley replied to GirlCalledJack's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    are there any courses included with your nursing program besides basic nursing courses? Like micro and pharm?? The program I am in requires the following: Program of Study- Minimum GPA for...

  9. A few more questions! (ADN vs BSN and... Pre-Req's)

    Brinley replied to GirlCalledJack's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Some of the classes you are reffering to can be taken in conjunction with your nursing rotation. That's why it's a 2 year program. Most students where I go complete all of the classes you are...

  10. A few more questions! (ADN vs BSN and... Pre-Req's)

    Brinley replied to GirlCalledJack's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    the classes you have sound about right for the ADN schools where I am at.. I do know that most BSN programs include most of your general ed classes with the program but you are still required to have...

  11. 4 years to get ADN? Is this just stupid?

    Brinley replied to onehusbandsevenkids's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Where I am it takes most people 3-4 years to get their ADN, that is the route I have decided to take b/c of cost, and b/c some employers will pay for your BSN. I am also taking extra classes towards...

  12. What's your opinion? Unethical???

    Brinley replied to stidget99's topic in General Nursing

    I think it's great you want to help them, but I have to agree with everyone else. I agree with contacting social services. In our area we have several homeless shelters, that provide housing and job...

  13. Attempting to get in the program is frustrating me

    Brinley replied to GrnHonu99's topic in Ohio Nursing

  15. How Many is Too Many

    Brinley replied to Fiona59's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I think the biggest problem with having that many children is that the older ones don't get to be kids. I work with a woman who was the oldest of 8, bye the age of 9 she was doing dishes, ironing, and...

  16. Nurses Who Shouldn't be Nurses

    Brinley replied to bobnurse's topic in General Nursing

    I am a nursing student and I would be lying to say that I didn't get into the profession partly for the money, or the job security. Like another poster said I wanted a job that could take me into the...

  17. Nurses Who Smoke

    Brinley replied to bobnurse's topic in General Nursing

    Hey - we agree on one thing. I think this is a good idea - I don't think that smokers should be given an ultimatum, while i don't smoke I would never say that people couldn't do it on their own time.....

  18. Nurses Who Smoke

    Brinley replied to bobnurse's topic in General Nursing

    I said MOST smokers... I would never say all.. I also thank your for being considerate when you smoke not all people are like

  19. Nurses Who Smoke

    Brinley replied to bobnurse's topic in General Nursing

  20. Nurses Who Smoke

    Brinley replied to bobnurse's topic in General Nursing

    I usually lurk and read on this site but this is an issue that I take very personally. Smoking is an addiction, a drug that when you use it affects the people around you. If I'm going to sit next to...
