  2. Nursing school and tattoos...

    Concrete Rose replied to cannolis's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I've not heard about a facility that restricts you from wearing long sleeves. All facilities give you the option to even wear scrub jackets. Seeing someones tats while they are washing hands is highly...

  3. Nursing school and tattoos...

    Concrete Rose replied to cannolis's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I've been to most of the hospitals in the area you are concerned about and again, if it's covered, there's no issue. (Emory, Emory midtown, choa, dekalb med, Grady, gwinnett med, atlanta med, Georgia...

  4. Nursing Schools

    Please keep in mind that approval to operate from BON(link provided above) does not necessarily mean the school has national accreditation. After reviewing the schools approved by the BON you should...

  5. Nursing school and tattoos...

    Concrete Rose replied to cannolis's topic in Georgia Nursing

    You'll need to cover it but whether that is enforced is dependent on the school. It will definitely be outlined in the nursing handbook. Most schools allow you to wear long sleeve white shirts under...

  8. 2nd Chance After Failing?

    Concrete Rose posted a topic in Georgia Nursing

    Has anyone been dismissed from a nursing program in Georgia but got accepted at another school? What was the process like? Did you switch to LPN or continue on the same track? Any one bold enough to...

  9. 2nd Chance After Failing?

    Concrete Rose replied to Concrete Rose's topic in Georgia Nursing

    So true. I couldn't agree more. It's still a rigorous program and the commitment required is no different. I'd be proud if I obtained that licensure but I do know if I go the LPN route I plan on...

    Concrete Rose replied to NeoNatMom's topic in Georgia Nursing

    NeoNatMom, when you took the hybrid AP 1 how was it??? You took it over the summer right? Do you have any suggestions as far as studying? I plan on taking that class this summer since the one I have...

    Concrete Rose replied to student for life's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Nice!

  14. ASN w/little debt or BSN lots of debt?

    Concrete Rose replied to mparker3kids's topic in Georgia Nursing

    The debt isn't necessary so if possible I would avoid it. However, it's more important to know the reputation of the school as far as nclex pass rate, retention rate (just to have an idea), and...

    Concrete Rose replied to Concrete Rose's topic in Georgia Nursing

  17. Getting into a RN Program

    Concrete Rose replied to SPinOR's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Does the school look at your resume when considering you? If not, I don't think you necessarily need to resign from your current job. I personally think customer service is an essential skill in...

  18. Afraid of being jobless

    Concrete Rose replied to angela82's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Don't be discouraged! There are still opportunities for ADN nurses! Hospitals that are Magnet status or are attempting to achieve it are drifting towards BSN but other than that I know for certain...

  19. Can I become a Canadian nurse with bad math?

    Concrete Rose replied to apple16's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think you will have to take whatever the university requires. I doubt they will make an exception for you if it is a required class. Also, keep in mind, although drug calculations in nursing may...

  20. Which unit in the hospital is best for a new grad RN? In terms of experience, salary.

    Concrete Rose replied to TopRN's topic in Nursing Career

    More likely the one you are most interested in and would be most committed to. If you have no interest in the unit or particular area of care how would you thrive? I have friends that excelled in...

  21. Gwinnett Tech Gunning for Nursing Fall 2014

    Concrete Rose replied to NeoNatMom's topic in Georgia Nursing

    So I have a degree from another school so does that mean they would consider those courses. Or would they only consider the courses that they accepted for transfer credit. Thanks for the response...

  22. Transfer AL license to GA

    Concrete Rose replied to terri8's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Hopefully you get some responses but maybe you can clarify with the board of nursing directly. I would think an official (sealed, etc) transcript is sufficient but perhaps they may also want a copy of...

  23. Gwinnett Tech Gunning for Nursing Fall 2014

    Concrete Rose replied to NeoNatMom's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Does gwinnett tech look at your entire GPA? Or do they just look at the classes they require? Also, how was the HESI? Can someone please let me know. And good luck to all you that are
