    LPN?

    LPNS are extremely valuable on the floor I work on however; I do think it is a waste of time. They make less than I do (as a nurse tech, I haven't even finished nursing school). In my opinion it is...
  3. I'm in Michigan and was able to get a nurse assistant job after my first semester of nursing school making 14/hr. Then after finishing med surg 1 and I now make

    Do you think CNA is worth it?

    Did You Go Into Nursing For One Specialty?

    I graduate from RN school this May and my ideas of where I want to work have changed drastically! I went into it wanting to be a psych nurse, and that happened to be the rotation I hated the most. As...

  11. At Macomb community college repeats don't count against you. If your GPA from English, microbiology, intro to nursing and a and p is over a 3.4ish and you get a good score on your HESI you will have...
  12. I have a question for anyone that could answer. What are the max credits you are allowed to have for financial aid? I've been using aid for 6 years and I'm wondering if I'll run out before I'm done...
