  1. Navy Nurse Candidate Program Summer 2013

    slc1984 replied to zgray's topic in Government, Military

    The NCP is for (BSN) nursing school students. Are you an ADN right now going for BSN? There were a couple of people at ODS with me who did that. If this is the case, I think just getting a...

  2. What age did you complete your BSN or ASN?

    slc1984 replied to mee9mee9's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

  3. NAVY - Can someone help figure this out?

    slc1984 replied to dfh5075's topic in Government, Military

    I know the NCP is very competitive, but I'm pretty sure they weed out most people simply by making them jump through hoops. I started my packet almost a year before I was finally accepted. There was a...

  4. Buying a car for nursing school

    slc1984 replied to johsonmichelle's topic in General Students

    I don't think of interest as just giving money to a bank. I think of interest as a big ol thankyou for allowing me to buy a good car that has a good warranty that will last me for many years. Glass...

  5. The military is moving my family!

    slc1984 replied to nlb2504's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Not that I am aware of. When my husband was in I got 3 years into a premed degree at ASU and when we moved to South Dakota I had to switch to a Biology degree and although my credits "transferred",...

  6. Buying a car for nursing school

    slc1984 replied to johsonmichelle's topic in General Students

    I bought a brand new diesel Jetta in March 2012. It is expensive but getting ~45mpg in a car that actually has power is great. It's also not a car that I will want to junk as soon as I start getting a...

  7. Navy NCP FY2014 'Role call'

    slc1984 replied to StudentForever77's topic in Government, Military

    Nope, you have to have between 12 and 24 months of nursing school left when you apply so you are right at the beginning

  10. Navy Nurse Candidate Program Summer 2013

    slc1984 replied to zgray's topic in Government, Military

    Sorry, but what do you mean by "1 year of scholarship"? Are they paying for school now

  11. Navy Nurse Candidate Program Summer 2013

    slc1984 replied to zgray's topic in Government, Military

    I don't know if they looked at my cumulative GPA or my nursing GPA. I have a 3.4 cumulative and I think like a 3.8 nursing. I have a previous degree so they may have focused on the nursing but I'm not...

    slc1984 replied to Sw88tpea's topic in Government, Military

    Lol yeah I figured it may have not been correct. Good luck with everything

  13. New to Navy, ODS, Portsmouth-need any help?

    slc1984 replied to Sw88tpea's topic in Government, Military

    A girl in my class missed the cut off for the NCP and went through my recruiter to look into a commission after getting her license. He told her that for this fiscal year there are no spots for...

  14. Navy NCP FY2014 'Role call'

    slc1984 replied to StudentForever77's topic in Government, Military

    I just want a big busy hospital where I can hopefully learn the most. I'm doing my clinicals at an Air Force base clinic right now and it's pretty slow. I don't know much about any Navy bases and...

  15. A&P II before A&P I ?

    slc1984 replied to biggolp's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Generally, if AP1 was a prereq to AP2 the system wouldn't even let you register for it without written approval from the teacher (which the person registering you usually does not have the authority...

  16. Are pattern/print scrubs unprofessional outside of pediatrics?

    slc1984 replied to OwlieO.O's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I have to admit that patterned tops bothered me prior to working in a hospital. I would walk in and see nurses wearing Winnie the pooh while emptying my dads foley and thought it was a little weird....

  17. Losing my religion

    slc1984 replied to jadelpn's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    I've been kind of worried about this lately. Some of the NCLEX questions I've been studying have to do with a nursing diagnosis of something to the effect of "impaired religiosity". My problem is that...

  18. Navy NCP FY2014 'Role call'

    slc1984 replied to StudentForever77's topic in Government, Military

    Yay! Sorry you didn't get Cali though My NCLEX is going to be a little weird. We graduate December 18th which puts the day that our grades have to be in around Christmas break which means they may...

  22. Flu shots as a student anyone?

    slc1984 replied to Mrs.RNindeed's topic in General Students

    I've never had a flu shot, never had the flu. My kids have never had a flu shot and have never had the flu. My husband got the flu shot for 8 years with the military. Never had the flu before, during...

  23. Well.. I guess I am going to be canned

    slc1984 replied to Phoenix2541's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    So just to get this straight, you DID NOT tell the housekeeper to apply tape? She just came out and casually mentioned that she chucked a piece of tape on the guy because his bandage was coming off?...

  24. Marijuana and Nursing School

    slc1984 replied to heather19's topic in General Students

    I never understand why people have an "it's only pot" attitude at the same time as actually RISKING something for it. If to you pot isn't serious enough that you should get in trouble for smoking it,...

  25. Fired during probation... what now-- more than 1 yr RN

    slc1984 replied to Looking_for_sunshine's topic in General Nursing

    He called her old, which makes you so angry. Yet many of you say that you are a members of the crusty old bat society. If you think of yourself as a crusty old bat (and apparently take pride in it),...
