    WSU BSN Fall 2016

    oldsockventriloquist replied to TaylorKaye's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Did they say why they denied her? The 3.7 and your GPA both seem pretty high. I'd be curious to see what people put down for their other sections (experiences, achievements,

    WSU BSN program 2016

    oldsockventriloquist replied to TaylorKaye's topic in Washington Nursing

    Any reason in particular you are applying to that campus? I have a feeling that Spokane is the most popular and would be curious to find out if they are a little more selective. I am debating on which...

    CNA Accusations and Recommendations

    oldsockventriloquist posted a topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    So, for male CNAs, I was always wondering how you avoid situations where a patient could falsely accuse of abuse (physical, emotional, financial...). I have often heard that employers will often side...

    Thank you Missingyou for your response. So you would suggest getting to know the patients during orientation and figuring out when one of them has been known to accuse others. It would be incredibly...

    CNA Accusations and Recommendations

    oldsockventriloquist replied to oldsockventriloquist's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    This is about prevention for an event that could occur. This is not about legal advice, but more about what has worked for others. I think this is very important discussion for those in the field and...

    So, is that 45k the total cost of the program or the tuition per year? Assuming that's the total cost, if you include food, room and board, etc., you're probably looking at >60k. Considering the...
