    Math Help Please.

    Bbett replied to Sarahjohnson39's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Bbett replied to Katelyn38841's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Bbett replied to kdflet's topic in General Students

    That email seems extremely professional and well written. Nursing school has a standard to withhold, yeah it may be a little extreme at times, but it's necessary! I think all schools are probably the...

    Bbett replied to MOSmom's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Four years to earn an ADN :/

    Bbett replied to mdiada's topic in General Students

    What can I do to be productive while waiting to get into Nursing program?

    Bbett replied to TiffanyMcNurse2b's topic in General Students

    There is not much you can do to prepare. NCLEX a questions will not make any sense until you are taught how to answer them and the material that is on the Nclex. I know you are excited but you really...

    LPN / BSN

    Bbett replied to MrKP's topic in Men in Nursing

    Right!? Apparently this person doesn't realize than an RN with an ADN and a BSN have the same exact job, and that an LPN also has the same job with only a few small differences.

    Psych Clinicals?

    Bbett replied to MeganStar's topic in General Students

    Such was the easiest blow off rotation of all of them. Don't feel intimidated. As a student you don't pass psych medications or do assessments. All you do is talk with the patients and then discuss...

    Cardiac tech

    Bbett replied to Lusin's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    It is extremely easy to learn. As soon as someone shows you once you will remember. Each of the 12 leads are numbered with exactly where you put them, then you literally press one button and it's...

    CNA to PCT

    Bbett replied to MysticTopaz's topic in Patient Care Technician, Assistants

    The main difference between a CNA and a PCT is that you don't need a license to be a PCT. CNAs are usually only called that in nursing homes where they make between 8-10 dollars an hour. PCTS where I...
