I’ve been in IR 15 years and never worked ICU. You will be fine! It’s actually not a requirement at our hospital though helpful. Good luck!

If she hasn't already seen one, it may prove beneficial to see a really good Electrophysiologist that specializes in diagnosis treatment of cardiac arrhythmias.

Patient is on the psych unit and believes that he is Hannibal Lecter and the nurse is Clarice, the detective since she is always asking him questions. So he is demonstrating what he thinks she hears when the lambs scream at night. The nurse (aka Clarice) says "sir, you are not Hannibal Lecter, I am not Clarice, and no I do not want you to demonstrate what you think screaming lambs sound like before they are slaughtered."

A snake in the patient's room!!

I took nutrition and sociology in the ADN program. Took high school chemistry. I'm currently enrolled in the online RN-BSN program at The University of Alabama and had to take intro to Biology for non-biology majors OR chemistry. I took the intro to Bio at the local community college. Check out UA's program. Also here that Univ. of West FL has a nice program (cheap too). Don't know about the pre-reqs though. Good Luck and Roll Tide.

Has anyone done the MSN through WGU? I'm confused as to which online MSN program to go thru. I work full time and I'm 52 years old. Gotta get done sooner than later, lol. I am currently in the RN-BSN program at UA.

UAB.edu offers a msn/nursing informations track.

I have enrolled at UA in the online distance learning, RN to BSN program and start nursing classes in the Summer 2016. Any tips/suggestions appreciated. Roll Tide Roll.

We take ours down to sterile processing. They lay the lead on these racks and put them in a huge dishwasher looking thing, it's where they sterilize the stainless cases for instruments used in the OR. We take it on Friday and Monday it's clean and dry and smells so much better!

And be wary of the nurse that "knows all the answers."

Did you have to go to the college for proctored exams? Or log on for the exam via a proctoring service? I'm just starting this journey and need chemistry, statistics and some math classes. Haven't been in college since 1990! I still work full time, have my last child in college at present. So how hard are the classes? LOL.

I am 51 years old, enrolled in the RN to BSN program through The University of Alabama, about to finish my first semester back in college since 1990. I do plan on participating in the graduation ceremonies - because my youngest child will also graduate from the University of Alabama at the same time and we are graduating together!

how about microsoft office online? I use it It's nice to log in from anywhere and look at my documents also. They have a word APA template. It's free for students :) https://store.office.live.com/templates/APA-style-paper-TM00002033

The MOST important thing in applying for student loans is to fill out the FAFSA application. You may think you don't qualify for any sort of aid and it will be a waste of time but this is how you obtain government subsidized versus unsubsidized loans. When my oldest child went to college I didn't bother to fill out FAFSA because I thought "we'll never qualify for any sort of aid." You cannot consolidate Sallie Mae loans. Each year is a new loan. If you think about any sort of loan forgiveness program...Sallie Mae loans are not included in this. Well now.. I too believe "Sallie Mae is the spawn of the devil." I strongly discourage you to have any sort of dealings with Sallie Mae because at some point in your life...you WILL be sorry and it will be very, very difficult to ever pay them off.
