  1. Online Class

    sddlnscp replied to Fox's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took Human Growth & Development through here, the correct web address is http://www.cccs.edu/ The call # is PSY235 (and it is labeled 'Human Growth & Development') for the class. You don't...

  2. looking to become a RN

    sddlnscp replied to tiffanymarie86's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Right! If you want to bite it off in little chunks (which is what I am working on), here is a not too bad game plan: Apply to an Associate's Degree program (typically referred to as an ASN or ADN)...

  3. If You Got Your Letter Post Here!!!

    sddlnscp replied to Faeriewand's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hey CB - I used to live in Sharon, how awesome! :) I went to school there for my 7th grade year (seems like forever ago). My grandparents lived there most of their adult life (my grandmother taught...

  4. New here! looking for information on becoming an RN

    sddlnscp replied to tiffanymarie86's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Welcome! A word of advice - don't get discouraged, whatever you do! If this is your dream, then follow it, regardless. The wait lists at the schools can be scary, but apply anyway and then get to...

  5. I need your opinion.....

    sddlnscp replied to jbjints's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Best of luck to you! I am like the female version of you (LOL) - full time work, mother of two, etc. I was also denied the first time I applied at my local CC, so I took pre-reqs and other classes...

  6. Working in Summit County

    sddlnscp replied to JPine's topic in Colorado Nursing

    I live in SE Colorado, but we lived in the Breckenridge area for 7 years when I was a young child (specifically Keystone and then Dillon Valley). The problem we found was that even if the pay was ok,...

  7. Nursing Fields

    sddlnscp replied to Elephant Memories's topic in General Nursing

    Welcome! That is wonderful! There are great discussion groups (is that the right term?) here that cover every one of those areas. You might want to go into each of those areas in this forum and...

  8. Thank Goodness for Good CNAs

    sddlnscp replied to htrn's topic in General Nursing

    I am not a CNA and I am a brand new nursing student, so I don't have any experience in that field. However, I do have some very close friends that are CNAs and they are absolutely awesome! I have...

  9. Nursing Job????

    sddlnscp replied to kamaylaundra's topic in General Nursing

    Wow! That is awesome! First, count yourself blessed. :) I have heard a lot of people say what jmgrn65 said, that med/surg is really great to get into for getting your feet wet and learning a lot....

  10. A sweet doc!

    sddlnscp replied to Antikigirl's topic in General Nursing

    Exactly Daye - I couldn't have said it better myself, it is a 'handshake' that I reserve for those that are close to me. A handshake just seems to formal for my really good friends. I am like you...

  11. Healthier Living Support - Part III

    sddlnscp replied to Tweety's topic in Health, Stress Management

    It truly does. Hopefully we can both get it under control and squash our bad habits before they get too strong a grip on us. Scary thing is, I didn't think I was doing too bad until then and then I...

  12. Main Problem In The Nursing Field?

    sddlnscp replied to blueyesue's topic in General Nursing

    Ditto that! I am not a CNA, nor have I worked in healthcare yet, I am a nursing student. However, I think CNAs deserve so much credit for everything that they do! I have a friend who is a CNA and...

  13. A sweet doc!

    sddlnscp replied to Antikigirl's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with cyberkat, I am a student, but I am a hugger by nature. I have been hugged and hugged many people without it being a 'romantic' thing. In fact, any time I run into any of the cops I used...

  14. Healthier Living Support - Part III

    sddlnscp replied to Tweety's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Good deal Tweety - I bought a jumprope the other day, I love jumping rope, so hopefully that will get me motivated to exercise. Ok - I got on the scale yesterday morning and had gained 7 lbs. OMG!...

  15. Healthier Living Support - Part III

    sddlnscp replied to Tweety's topic in Health, Stress Management

    I can relate Tweety - I was doing pretty good until yesterday. Then I got overly stressed at work and ate half a bag of cookies. Figured I already blew it for the day, so hubby and I went out to eat...

  16. Not sure I want to be a RN anymore after this!

    sddlnscp replied to HelloKitty123's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    First and foremost, don't ever let anybody discourage you from following your dreams. Not that it will always be easy, but stand up for yourself and keep going, even when you feel as if you can't...

  17. What to do while waitlisted

    sddlnscp replied to onexmorexgirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi! I'm a Coloradoan too. :) Make sure that you have all of your pre-reqs completed first - many schools keep adding one or two new ones every year. I know that my school said that since we got in...

  18. Healthier Living Support - Part III

    sddlnscp replied to Tweety's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Good plan with the good fats Wonka - plus, I think oils such as olive taste a lot better too! :) Mary - sorry, I haven't tried any of the herbal supplements or anything like that. I had tried...

  19. Healthier Living Support - Part III

    sddlnscp replied to Tweety's topic in Health, Stress Management

  24. Healthier Living Support - Part III

    sddlnscp replied to Tweety's topic in Health, Stress Management

  25. Stethoscope Help

    sddlnscp replied to Princess74's topic in General Nursing

    Our school recommended the Littman II SE, which is what I bought. I haven't received it yet, but they said it would work fine for everything we will need throughout our schooling - it is not the...
