Is this fairly common? For a student to work as a CNA? This is what I am planning on doing, however I'd heard (never from anyone in my town, always from people online) that it's difficult to get a job as a CNA at hospitals, especially when working th...

I tried to ask my advisor at my college about wait lists in colorado today, but he didn't seem to interested in talking to me (I'm switching advisors!) I'm curious about how long wait lists are in Colorado in general? I'm looking at Pueblo Communit...

for some reason today as i sat at work bored out of my mind i started worrying about the nursing school entrance exam! (odd as it may sound i'm more worried about this than the nclex, although both are still a ways off!) i have another year worth o...

I know I eventually want my Masters... I guess what I'm looking for is what the differences are with a hospital program, as far as how they work... I thought it was odd to have a BSN program at a hospital too...but they do :)

The hospital in my home town has a Diploma program and a BSN program that I'm really interested in! But I am curious to know what the differences (both advantages and disadvantages) of these programs may be compared to a community college or a univer...

Jenna, I am taking A&P through Colorado Community Colleges online, and I know a few other members here use them as well...

Stuck on the Chemistry!!! I am on Chapter 2 (Chemistry) and I am stuck there!! For some reason my brain just isn't computing all of this! *LOL* Also, Anyone have a good link for Labeling Exercises?

Anyone know of a good way to memorize/learn the 6 structural Levels?? (Chemical, Cell, Tissue, Organ, Organ System & Organism) Maybe it's just wishful thinking that there could be some cute way to memorise this!

I'm taking Pre-A&P... my college decided that "Basic A&P" should be a requirement, so I am taking 3 A&P classes over all *eek* But I think with Basic I can 'ease' into it all! (Although from reading around this board it sounds like I will...

I haven't had a chance to read this whole thread yet, but I just started A & P Yesterdy and am anxious to get going!!

I wouldn't worry to much about it! While they take your high school into account, if you are doing amazing in college courses several years later, then I'm sure that shows that you have matured and that you are a "fast learner" if nothing else, hard ...

I am currently taking classes at the school this semester, but next semester my hubby will be gone ALL semester for work related training and I can go with him, but need to stay in school also! Is there anyway to take some of the pre-req's online?? (...

My big problem with CCC online is still having to go in for labs! (At least thats how it was described to me!?!?)

Not required here, but I am going through CNA classes currently so I can work pt as a CNA throughout nursing school

At my school you have to get your LPN before you can be admitted to the RN program (Odd, I know!) So I will be getting my LPN, but I may move before I get my RN and then just go for my LPN to RN in another state, at least that way I can get into the ...

Has anyone taken these classes online? I will be taking both online (although going into the school for labs) My main reasoning for this is that both classes were full when I went to sign up... Are they too hard to take online and should I wait? Or c...

Thank you everyone for your thoughts!! My labs will be at the school, so I'm not very worried about that, and I think that I'll be able to ask questions come lab time! Tests will be in the school testing lab (a ginormic computer lab on campus) As for...

Anyone here have any good information about LVAD's or any links to good info on the web?? I am a pre-nursing student/CNA student, interested in Cardio nursing. But my question is more personal... my father was just told he needs an LVAD, so I'm doing...

I'm starting my pre-req's for my ADN at Pueblo Community College in Southern Colorado...

I thought getting my CNA was required to be in the nursing program, however I just talked to the head of the nursing school here and she told me it's not required. I am curious if it's a "smart idea" to get your CNA first anyway! I have 3 semesters w...

landshark, those are the same prices I found around here, so I'm just taking it at my community college where my financial aide money can pay for it... *sigh* it seems nothing is ever easy

I had an appointment today to get registered for classes for fall, I was going to register for my Pre-Req's (A & P1, Pharmacology etc) and register for the CNA class as well. I had EVERYTHING figured out, and my appointment scheduled. I got to my...

oh... I used to work in Canon! (Only for a few days)

I am FINALLY getting this all worked out! I am meeting with the head of the nursing dept on Tuesday to sign up for classes nad to get everything worked out! She sounded very nice, and hopefully she knows what she's talking about! If not, I'll rethink...

micco, thank you :) I don't know for sure where the fremont campus is...since I live in Pueblo I'll probably just try for PCC, although I'm talking to the advisor this week to see what she has
