  1. DDNA certification info

    Hello, I was wondering for those of you that are DDNA certified, other than the knowledge you gained from become certified, what other benefits did getting certified give you? Do employers offer a pay increase for those who are certified vs not? Any ...
  2. Dying of starvation

    I agree with a lot of what people have said. Just because one nurse says she cannot have anything doesn't make it so. If she is still legally responsible for herself, she has any and every right to refuse to remain NPO. Are you another nurse or a CNA...
  3. Can Psychology relate to nursing?

    Psychology relates to everything you do in life in one way or another. You could definitely pursue becoming a Psychiatric Nurse but I find it takes a very special individual to be able to both handle it and enjoy it. You need to think about what you ...
  4. What was your GPA in the science prereqs and overall as well as your TEAS score, if you don't mind sharing? It would be so helpful!
  5. CSU Channel Islands Spring 2012

    A few people have already asked - but I am very interested in applying for the Goleta Cottage Hospital Satellite program as it is the closest BSN program to where I live. I would greatly appreciate any information or hints on what your GPA/TEAS score...

  7. Applying for Cuesta College RN Program for Fall 2012

    I'm wondering what your overall scores were for the program, and did any of you that were on the wait list actually get a spot? Just wondering what score actually gets a shot at getting a spot in the program. Thanks in advance
  8. Why do nurses "eat their young"?

    I really enjoyed reading your post about your experiences. I am starting an LVN program this Fall so I like reading about others experiences as a Nursing Student. Working as a CNA I too met a lot of wonderful nurses and a few that were not quite so f...
  9. Too late to be a nurse?

    I honestly feel that you are never too old to learn! I knew a 90 year old man that went to college after his wife passed away to get his associates degree and learn Spanish...if he can do it, so can you. My dad did a Psychiatric Technician program in...
  10. Who carries the best PETITE sized Scrubs?

    I personally love the Grey's Anatomy by Barco scrubs. They are a little pricier than Cherokee and some of the other brands but, in my opinion, are well worth the extra money. Super comfortable, well made and long lasting. They come in tons of colors ...
