  1. "OB-nurse" vs. CNM....difference?

    HomeofLove4Him posted a topic in Ob/Gyn

    What is the difference between an OB-nurse, and a CNM? Differences as far as .....salary (south, Florida specifically), education needed, opportunities, places of work (office, hosp, etc), and...

  2. BSN to Med School??

    HomeofLove4Him posted a topic in General Students

    Has anyone done this, or does anyone have any ideas for doing this? I guess my biggest question is...most Med Schools I have researched want your sciences to be taken with the *lab*...and yet, part of...

    HomeofLove4Him replied to dodo102's topic in Online Distance Learning

  4. PLEASE HELP! What should I do???

    HomeofLove4Him posted a topic in General Nursing

    OK. Here is the situation: I am currently a student nurse (LPN). However, abruptly my sitter has quit on us. Now, we have been searching for awhile for a replacement/backup, but are not having any...

  5. PLEASE HELP! What should I do???

    HomeofLove4Him replied to HomeofLove4Him's topic in General Nursing

    I have exhausted all of my 'leads' and nothing has turned up...church, friends, family. As for family, no there is absolutely no family here. The only one left was dh's gma, and she was the one...

  6. Deaconess Clinicals

    HomeofLove4Him replied to tlgreer's topic in Online Distance Learning

    OK so you find a nurse and set something up on your own for clinicals, and then after each rotation you must fly out to Missouri to show the instructors there that you have the skills? So how often is...

  7. Univ. of WI, Bachelors-BSN

    HomeofLove4Him posted a topic in Online Distance Learning

    I am trying to figure out....IF I decide to do this program, how can I know what classes will transfer over (the sciences)? I have one science I've already done, but I can take all of the rest at the...

  8. PLEASE HELP! What should I do???

    HomeofLove4Him replied to HomeofLove4Him's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks guys. The thing is... I AM in the evening LPN program (which btw, our clinicals are evenings too) No, my school doesn't have childcare (and I have 4 children), but it'd be nice if it did! I...

  9. Hours worked? Just curious....

    HomeofLove4Him posted a topic in Home Health

    I'm just curious to know what hours a Home Health Care nurse works?? It seems (from reading posts) that most of you work during the day (typical 8-5) visiting pts. Could someone work evenings...like...

  10. What do you suggest?? online or tradtional?

    HomeofLove4Him posted a topic in Online Distance Learning

    OK I know the main answer to my question is going to be...."It all depends on YOU and how well YOU would do as an online student." I know THAT much And I have no doubts as to how well I would do (as...

  11. What do you suggest?? online or tradtional?

    HomeofLove4Him replied to HomeofLove4Him's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Ivy, you're right--you can do RN-MSN at Excelsior if you want to. Sue, you are absolutely right though, which is why I have decided to go the traditional route after all. It seems no matter what...

  12. Any Excelsior Students in Orlando, Fla?

    HomeofLove4Him replied to ncourager's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I'm an LPN student and I *plan to* get my RN through Excelsior. Does that count? :) I'm in Sanford, and my school is in

  13. BSN to Med School??

    HomeofLove4Him replied to HomeofLove4Him's topic in General Students

    Suzanne, from what I am learning and researching, you are right. It really seems to be go one route, or go the other. I *could* do it the way I originally planned, but it seems to be kinda a waste of...

  14. BSN to Med School??

    HomeofLove4Him replied to HomeofLove4Him's topic in General Students

    Good question, one that I get asked all the time Two main reasons: 1) I need a bachelor's *anyway* in order to get into Med School. 2) Nursing is such a flexible career, it would be perfect (hours...

  15. Hours worked? Just curious....

    HomeofLove4Him replied to HomeofLove4Him's topic in Home Health

    Oh ok...so what I'm thinking of is called respite care, then? Does that mean someone is on their death bed or does it just mean 1 nurse per patient (not nec. on their death bed)? And so, are those the...

  16. What does this mean????

    HomeofLove4Him posted a topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I found this at my state's BON site....what does this mean: Does the "non-LPN" mean ABOVE an LPN (like if you did an LPN-BSN program) or does it mean "below" LPN such as if you went to Excelsior to...

  17. What does this mean????

    HomeofLove4Him replied to HomeofLove4Him's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Ohhhhhh-k So basically it is saying if you are not even at LEAST an LPN, then you cannot go through the program and later be licensed. BTW I am an LPN student currently, going to school locally, the...

  18. The College Network--legit??

    HomeofLove4Him posted a topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    So I keep seeing these banners pop up on the forums for LPN to BSN programs from the College Network, all online. ??? Is that legit and for real? I cannot imagine any nursing program totally online...

  19. "Per diem" vs "prn"

    HomeofLove4Him posted a topic in General Nursing

    This has probably been asked umpteen times....but what is "per diem"? And what is the diff between that and prn? Prn means working 3-12hr shifts per wk, but getting pd for 40hrs, right? (at least...

  20. "Per diem" vs "prn"

    HomeofLove4Him replied to HomeofLove4Him's topic in General Nursing

    Ohhhh ok, so who typically gets the Baylor shift? RNs? LPNs? (guess it'd all depend on where they were needed??) Is this usually something only done in hospitals? (obviously not in a daytime dr's...

  21. Pre-reqs for LPN-RN??

    HomeofLove4Him posted a topic in Online Distance Learning

    First, what ARE the prereq's that one will have to have had when doing an LPN-RN program? And then, where can you take them (specifically,is there a place to take those pre-reqs online?) I'm thinking...

  22. Pre-reqs for LPN-RN??

    HomeofLove4Him replied to HomeofLove4Him's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Wow. I hope I can do prereqs online! :stone I have my AA degree, so I have some classes, but none of the sciences, and no college

  23. "Per diem" vs "prn"

    HomeofLove4Him replied to HomeofLove4Him's topic in General Nursing

    OK so PRN just means working "as needed", so then probably not fulltime? Well, I wouldn't want that... I was hoping to be able to work 3 12hr shifts...I guess that's the Baylor plan you mentioned....
