  1. how do I gain experience if I have no experience?

    mrsboots87 replied to pete M's topic in General Nursing

    Think about it this way. Whether you actually HAVE to have your CNA certificate is not the point. Get it anyway. When employers are looking at apps, if 5 people apply. 2 have their CNA and 3 don't....

  2. Second week of work...

    mrsboots87 replied to Annachu512's topic in First Year After Licensure

    All you can really do is try to impress them an then hope they see value in seeing you trough this. You may be surprised. Some employers (as you are aware) are not very supportive of these kind of...

  3. need help from a experience nurse

    mrsboots87 replied to mrs.smurf's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Stop getting so upset. How do you expect to make it in an environment where you frequently have to go out there and talk to people you don't know, when you can't even do it now. Do the legwork....

  4. Tattoos/piercings?

    mrsboots87 replied to livelovelaugh1396's topic in General Students

    Seriously, NO NO NO. At worst this will not be allowed, at best it will be highly frowned upon and you will be tagged as "that" student. I don't personally care about tattoos and piercing and I have a...

  5. CNAs Does the AZBN issue a physical certificate too?

    mrsboots87 replied to katchryn's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    From what I understand, the only way you get a tangible certificate is the pay for the wallet one. Otherwise, you just get a pass fail and the AZBN site will say if you are certified or not for...

  6. Denial of financial aid for previous associates degree

    mrsboots87 replied to Tracyprice1's topic in General Students

    Miiki is pretty much spot on about the amount of credit hours you are aloud to take for each degree. There is also a rule about degrees. Yes, it will only pay for one bachelors degree and then that's...

  7. Transferring During Nursing School (TN to FL)

    mrsboots87 replied to BSNMomOf6's topic in General Students

    I can all but guarantee that you will need to repeat block 1. It is very rare that nursing schools will transfer credits from a different program when they are not in a district with each other (like...

  8. Need a seasoned nurse and new grad to interview

    mrsboots87 replied to dacoop's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I get what you're saying, but online interviewing on this site is viewed as asking other people to do your homework for you. I'm not saying that's what you're doing. Just telling you what every other...

  9. Time spent studying and other stuff.

    mrsboots87 replied to theRPN2b's topic in General Students

    You can definitely make the gym work. I used to take my powerpoints and read through them while on the treadmill or stationary bike. An hour would fly by and I would always feel less stressed because...

  10. Help! Bought an online test bank not sure what to do!

    mrsboots87 replied to NicolleM's topic in General Students

    I see. LOL. Gotta love the lack of tone when conversing on the

  11. Help! Bought an online test bank not sure what to do!

    mrsboots87 replied to NicolleM's topic in General Students

    I do also want to clarify, I personally have no issue with using all the study resources you can get your hands on. I just also understand that to use instructor q banks would get me dismissed, no...

  12. Help! Bought an online test bank not sure what to do!

    mrsboots87 replied to NicolleM's topic in General Students

    I think what was meant by the question is that why would a STUDENT ask if they are aloud to buy INSTRUCTOR test banks. Whether or not the instructor uses them doesn't matter. The problem is that their...

  13. Disclosing university transcript?

    mrsboots87 replied to bootzie's topic in General Students

    Honesty is the best policy. A lot of people struggle in school, take a break, then come back and have to deal with their poor grades. For the uni rep you spoke to that said they don't need them, as...

  14. Should I be depressed?

    mrsboots87 replied to nursingstudent018's topic in General Students

    This is not meant to be rude, but REALLY? you re 26, and the few others who are depressed about when they were "younger" are still pretty darn young t be so worried about life. It's not like you will...

  15. Help! Bought an online test bank not sure what to do!

    mrsboots87 replied to NicolleM's topic in General Students

    What you are describing is completely different. If you are studying from STUDENT materials, and verbatim questions come up on your exams, that is the teschers problem because you are using material...

  16. Help! Bought an online test bank not sure what to do!

    mrsboots87 replied to NicolleM's topic in General Students

    Your resoonse is irrelevant and off point. Yes, I feel that teachers should develope tests without copying them verbatim from test banks. And yes there are a lot of student test banks that are great...

  17. Trick questions?

    mrsboots87 replied to grandmabutterfly's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Also, I believe there is no review due to the fact that it would cause a lot of people to challenge questions. From my understanding, the questions on NCLEX have gone through a rigorous development...

  18. Trick questions?

    mrsboots87 replied to grandmabutterfly's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    The flaw in your argument is that you are basing the need to review on YOUR integrity. You may not want to cheat, and you may not want to memorize answers, but many people would. It is better to ruin...

  19. how to support yourself through nursing school.

    mrsboots87 replied to bbailey_62's topic in General Nursing

    I live in Arizona as well and the online nursing you are hearing about is not what it sounds like. There is fully online, but it is for RN to BSN only. And any other "online" programs out here are...

  20. What do you inspire to contribute to the nursing profession?

    mrsboots87 replied to nrseducator's topic in General Students

    Is this your homework

  21. Fingerprint check?

    mrsboots87 replied to rcm6113's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    A fingerprint clearance card doesn't mean that they are searching for if you have been fingerprinted before. It is basically a very thorough federal level background screen. It will find any...

  22. any nursing programs with no waitlist and with housing anywhere in the United States

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

    Pretty much every state has at least a couple schools with no waitlist. They are competitive entry, and based on GPA and TEAS/HESI with a handful of other requirements. The only waitlist schools are...

  23. failing

    mrsboots87 replied to barachi's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I mean no offense, but honestly I'm not sure what exactly you are saying as you post is kind of all over the place. What I got was you were failed in clinicals for subjective data, but the description...

  24. Misdemeanor B Possession of Marijuana in Texas 7 years ago- now in AZ can I get in?

    mrsboots87 replied to rcm6113's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    It will all depend on how stringent the background check is and if they require a level one fingerprint clearance card or not. If this info is not on the website, then annonymously call the nursing...

  25. ICU Straight outta school?

    mrsboots87 replied to WalterWho's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Make connections now during clinical. It is hard enough for a new grad to get ajob right out of school, let akone a hospital job. Soecialties within the hospital are even harder to get. Dont give up,...
