  1. Working out & eating healthy with busy schedule!

    mrsboots87 replied to kkernagh's topic in General Students

    I agree with studying while working out. I bring my flashcards and will sometimes listen to recorded lecture as well. Then you get a workout and dont lose study

  2. Block II Math

    mrsboots87 replied to AZ_Nihtwriter's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Ps. I shouldn't have said also a MCCCD school because I don't know what program you're in. But I would assume that they will only test you on block one material and that should just be your basic...

  3. Block II Math

    mrsboots87 replied to AZ_Nihtwriter's topic in Arizona Nursing

    We had "the test" too. But it was not on our first day. It was actually on the first pre clinical lab day which was day 3. Anyway, it's a very simple math test. Basic conversions and such learned in...

  4. Hello nursing students

    mrsboots87 replied to studentnurse1012's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Honestly, 8 week micro will be REALLY tough. I'm not saying impossible, but you will need to dedicate a lot of your time so I hope you have some support to help with your children. I took the 16 week...

  5. Almost there... have to be patient!

    mrsboots87 replied to azgal81's topic in Arizona Nursing

    While 3.2-3.4 isn't the most competitive, that HESI score is fantastic. Plus the past degrees. The CEP admittance is not as competitive as the university direct admittance. So far, most people who...

  6. How Do I Apologize to Professor?

    mrsboots87 replied to Valr's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    What the heck kind if meeting is more important than clinical? This meeting was likely planned well before 2 days ahead. You should have figured this out a while ago and canceled the meeting. The only...

  7. In LPN Program - Denied Acceptance into ADN Program

    mrsboots87 replied to kimmyanne02's topic in General Students

    There is nothing unfair about this. Yes it sucks. But YOU did not a high enough GPA. a 2.43 means you are barely scraping by. There is a reason for a GPA cuttoff. If they were to make an exception for...

  8. Can any of you please answer the following questions it is for a school project

    mrsboots87 replied to shennellsmith123's topic in General Students

    Side note, I have to say that this is the first time that I have ever seen anyone actually respond to an interview post, let alone this many response. The best way to verify credentials is to do this...

  9. Relocating to Phoenix

    mrsboots87 replied to PennStudent's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Oh and as for the programs themself, they all have the same curriculum each semester, but each school runs its program a little different. I go to one and love it. The faculty are amazing so far and...

  10. Relocating to Phoenix

    mrsboots87 replied to PennStudent's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I also do not know about pay level for LPNs, but to add to the above posters comment about hospitals not hiring LPNs any more that is true. However, the LTCs and SNFs and homecare still do. Snce you...

  11. Arizona college of allied health mesa az

    mrsboots87 replied to studentnurse1012's topic in School, College Programs

    NLN is accredidation so I was wrong on that then. I just couldnt find it on the site, but I only glanced over it quickly. As for fast track, generally that program is for people with a current BSN...

  12. New nurse with Hep C. Should I disclose it?

    mrsboots87 replied to Tor13's topic in Nurse Disabilities

    Also, the only time disclosure would be necessary would be for instances such you some how getting your blood in a wound or some weird oddball possible transmission from you to a patient so that the...

  13. New nurse with Hep C. Should I disclose it?

    mrsboots87 replied to Tor13's topic in Nurse Disabilities

    I am pretty sure you do not have to disclose it, and it would be discrimination of the physician performing the physical assessment disclosed and you were not hired for it. Think about it this way,...

  14. child abuse question?

    mrsboots87 replied to Humaneclowninscrubs's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    And also, our instructors have taught that we do not automatically report suspected abuse without first further assessing the situation. Seeing bruises shouldnt send us to the phone to call the police...

  15. child abuse question?

    mrsboots87 replied to Humaneclowninscrubs's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Was one of the answers (you only listed two and at least for are offered) to "document findings" or something similar. Because that is what I would have chosen. Just because the question was made from...

  16. Arizona college of allied health mesa az

    mrsboots87 replied to studentnurse1012's topic in School, College Programs

    Is there a reason you havnt considered ASU, NAU, GCU or the MCCCD community college programs. They are all accredited and much cheaper than the private schools. And based on looking at the program...

  17. Immunizations

    mrsboots87 replied to jacquisosa's topic in General Students

    And lastly, many facilities (at least where I live) dont require the Heb B series. You are aloud to sign a waiver for that one if the record is lost or you dont want to pay for it again. Some people...

  18. Immunizations

    mrsboots87 replied to jacquisosa's topic in General Students

    I also agree with the titers. My Immunization records from child hood are long gone. I had titers drawn at an Occ health clinic for like $200. I found out I had equivocal immunity to rubella and...

  19. What percentage make it?

    mrsboots87 replied to mae0218's topic in General Students

    I am only in block 2, but my first semester started with 88 students. I didnt count how many we lost but it was about half the class. Now in block 2, those spots were filled with the people who didnt...

  20. New Grad Salaries in Phoenix area

    mrsboots87 replied to Jmlr's topic in Arizona Nursing

    This may all be different when you graduate if things change by then, but currently it is very tough for new grads to get hospital jobs if they dont already work in a hospital before they get their...

  21. What will my future employers consider me as?

    mrsboots87 replied to Dressagern's topic in General Students

    Ba does not equal BSN. The BSN degree requires community health and a lot of nursing based research type classes. Your other degree will not have had those. What makes a BSN RN different is that they...

  22. Transferring Nursing Schools: University of Hawaii Manoa BSN Program

    mrsboots87 replied to its_ems's topic in School, College Programs

    I can tell you that most of the time nursing core classes are not transferable. Each program has their own curriculum that don't match perfectly to other schools curriculums. There are a handful of...

  23. Looking for advice!

    mrsboots87 replied to ktlaporta's topic in General Students

    I wasn't there, but what I gather is that you doesn't more time looking for help then actually providing care. I mean this sincerely and don't mean to be antagonistic, but it sounds like you need more...

  24. Having doubts about being a nurse

    mrsboots87 replied to Jeneaux's topic in General Students

    The things you mention lead to me to believe that you are either not cut out for healthcare, or should wait it out in your program a bit longer to see if you might surprise yourself and find that you...

  25. So I have a few questions about my GPA.

    mrsboots87 replied to Rocktheman's topic in General Students

    Hey, my patient in clinical this week had one of those. There was no other point behind this post then to say
