  1. BHSON 2015 - Who's in?

    I'm waiting as well
  2. CNA to BSN

    When I was 15 I wasn't even thinking about my future or a job..let alone have an account for a nursing website..your still young don't get too ahead of yourself ..good luck
  3. Spectacularly failed the reading section...

    If you scored a 81 I would leave it at that and move on. Idk what your school requires but if you retake the teas you might get lower on another a section you did well on and who knows you may end up with another 81. It's not like you can just take t...
  4. Don't know if nursing is right for me

    It might be easier and quicker to shadow at a nursing home.
  5. How would we know what the right choice for you is? What you may not like others may like. Everything you described is pretty standard for LTC you didn't have clinical as a CNA. Sounds like home health is better for you
  6. Very concerned

    First off...high school gpa means nothing...know the requirements before you freak out...if your in high school the school year just started? You have All year to figure everything out you will be fine. Good luck
  7. advice for single mothers back to school

    Um maybe instead of a bsn do a two year college and go part time. That's what most single parents do, go part time and get your general ed classes done. Then when you child is 2-3 put her into day care/pre school program. Then either transfer to star...
  8. I fail my written test ,please any advice

    Keep your head up . Good luck you can do it!!!
  9. Talking to self during exam

    Yes talk your way through the skill even on hand washing...it also distracts the Procter a little. Good luck!!
  10. Applying before certification

    Yes!!! I would apply esp if your test date is right around the corner. Even after you interview it's still a process...references..background check etc...on the application under license I would just write your test date I did it and it worked. Some ...
  11. Advice on 1 year contracts

    I've heard of this in hospitals where they waste a lot of time and money training people that wind up leaving a few weeks down the road. If I were you I wouldn't take the job. Not only is the pay not that great....how do you even know if you will lik...
  12. I think you posted this question in the wrong forum
  13. Day in the life of a 10p-6a Nightshift CNA please

    I understand I'm in the same boat with school and having to work at night. But yes if you work the over night shift there will be a huge disconnect from the residents. You will do the least amount of work on this shift. -re position every 2 hrs. -mak...
  14. Got into nursing school....Should I wait?!?!

    This can't be a real question
  15. Good Nursing Apps

    Look in the tab that says nurses there's a forum on this
  16. Client's daughter too pushy

    I would stay. (If you like the job and things change) close mouths don't get fed you need to say something. The daughter can't read your mind the earlier you say something the better
  17. cna certification re-testing (skills)

    For the re-test It will be as if you never failed. Youll get random skills and since there random it may be one of the ones you already had. But how did you fail? You read the numbers wrong? That seems to be the only way you could fail that. And don'...
  18. Passive Range of Motion

    It's actually not that hard each exercise goes together like Its not anything far off like hand and foot. If it's foot is something close by like leg. If it's Hand then you do the arm as well. For the ROM skill just memorize the body parts used and t...
  19. CNA Exam

    In my state they only test you on one skill. And it's random so you could get something easy. Good luck you'll do fine
  20. Honestly I would go with your heart or ask someone that knows you well. Maybe someone that goes to your school that has taken the classes already. I feel like advisers underestimate students even though they are trying to be realistic that's just how...
  21. Pre-Req classes

    I'm currently enrolled in community college and I'm planning to take general biology and chemistry together...I'm just wondering if it would be a heavy work load with the labs and my other classes...I know its not impossible...I'm just wondering if i...
  22. TEAS in 5 Days!

    I heard the science hesi was just like the teas science and the rest of the stuff in the manual is closely related. I honestly wouldn't stress with your background I think you'll do fine!
  23. I honestly think everyone goes through this stage and I think it's worst for those 28 and under. I don't think the older crowd really feels like this or should I say they seem more comfortable so I don't get that vibe. But I graduated 4 years ago and...
  24. Last term nursing student looking for PCT job

    I wouldn't say when your finished unless they ask. And if they do ask convince them that it will be some time before your a rn. In my state you have to wait 6 weeks after graduating before taking the nclex. But I think your friend might be right beca...
  25. So much doubt...

    Here's what I suggest. Finish your B.A and apply for nursing school as a second degree seeking student. In my state (CT) there are a ton of programs for people that already hold a degree. Some programs let you jump right into the nursing courses if y...
