  3. VCU ABSN Summer 2017 Hopefuls

    MJane29 replied to vcu17's topic in School, College Programs

    Hey nursegabbyc! I know that VCU SON thinks very highly of care partner experience, so in my opinion, the admissions committee will likely look favorably upon it as well. I can't say a whole lot...

    MJane29 replied to vcu17's topic in School, College Programs

    Hey Ashley, Unfortunately, I am kind of a weirdo in my cohort, so please don't focus too much on my background (I am certainly not trying to heighten your anxiety). I applied with a masters degree in...

  11. Attempts to establish initial contact with assigned practicum preceptor unsuccessful

    MJane29 replied to MJane29's topic in General Students

    Hey meanmaryjean, I don't think that your suggestion is at all radical. It is the next step that I will take if I have not heard anything come Wednesday. I am probably dating myself by saying this,...

    MJane29 replied to MJane29's topic in General Students

  16. Feeling ambivalent about decision

    MJane29 replied to MJane29's topic in General Students

    Good points...thank you! I honestly think the reason she wanted me to weigh the diaper was primarily due to the fact that the patient had been admitted for a fever and intermittent vomiting. Perhaps...
