  1. OK weather?

    LanaBanana replied to LanaBanana's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    Yes, this heat is getting to me. I'm okay as long as I'm in shorts, but even putting on my scrubs to head to school is tough. Jeans are horrible! I'm one of those people who is hot outside but...

  2. claiming to be what she isn't

    LanaBanana replied to traumamomtx's topic in General Nursing

    One of the big clinics here even calls RN's and LPN's "clinical assistant". I'm not sure what Clinical Ast. I is, but Clin.Ast. II is a medical assistant, III is LPN, IV is RN. I only found this out...

  3. LPN to BSN @ Indiana State U...here is the info i got!!!

    LanaBanana replied to TashaLPN2006RN2012's topic in Indiana State University

    I think you would first have to get a license from another state and maybe work X amount of time. Check with the Cal BoN and find out what it takes to transfer a license from another state. You...

  4. LPN to BSN @ Indiana State U...here is the info i got!!!

    LanaBanana replied to TashaLPN2006RN2012's topic in Indiana State University

    They are the same general ed req's that all the BSN programs will require, although each one usually throws in 1 or 2 that are unique to them. If you do LPN-RN there are a lot less

  5. claiming to be what she isn't

    LanaBanana replied to traumamomtx's topic in General Nursing

    I think this is kind of how my grandma was. She only had an 8th grade education due to finances back then, but from what I have been told and read about jobs she did, in todays world she would...

  6. claiming to be what she isn't

    LanaBanana replied to traumamomtx's topic in General Nursing

    I started my LPN program 2 weeks ago. The first night we were doing introductions and this girl tells us that she works in her dad's urgent care center as a nurse. It was also nurses week and she...

    LanaBanana replied to L&D_2b's topic in Online Distance Learning

    LanaBanana replied to VJinOK's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

  12. Men's shoes in OKC area

    LanaBanana replied to VJinOK's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

  13. CNA base pay

    LanaBanana replied to OURN83's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    Probably depends on whether you do nursing home, hospital or home health. I would guess hospital would pay more? But probably would be more towards the $8

    LanaBanana replied to LanaBanana's topic in Online Distance Learning

  17. 8 Week A&P 1 with Edukan...what do you think?

    LanaBanana replied to LanaBanana's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I haven't heard anything yet, but figure I probably won't until Friday or even Monday. Keeping my fingers crossed though! The LPN stuff is pretty boring so far, but we've had a lot of paperwork to do...

  18. 8 Week A&P 1 with Edukan...what do you think?

    LanaBanana replied to LanaBanana's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Anybody know how long it takes for our grades to actually show up on the transcript? I keep checking on the Barton CCC online services and my grade isn't posted yet. My school here posts it as soon...

  19. Please help A&P I&II online courses

    LanaBanana replied to dhara's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Yes, with Edukan, DON'T use Barton County as your home college because they require a general biology class first. Colby

  20. 2005 NCLEX pass rates for Oklahoma here!

    LanaBanana replied to marilynmom's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    That 30 probably included students from all of the BSN options - accelerated, traditional and RN/LPN to BSN. Although I guess the RN-BSN students wouldn't have to retake NCLEX. That doesn't seem...

  21. mumps...to vaccinate or not to vaccinate?

    LanaBanana posted a topic in General Nursing

    I had the MMR vaccine when in 79 when I was 1 year old, and an additional measels vaccine in 89 when we had an outbreak at my school. I'm trying to decide if I should go ahead and get the 2nd MMR....

  22. Medical Terminology and suumer session?

    LanaBanana replied to L&D_2b's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I had a friend who took these together during the regular semester and said she found it helpful because they went hand-in-hand. I have med terms before I took A&P and thought that was more...

  23. Phlebotomist Salary Tulsa

    LanaBanana replied to Renee73's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    What about taking it at TCC or TTC? It would be cheaper there to pay out of pocket. At TCC, I think it's also offered as a summer class (won't be listed on the website, but will be in the printed...

  24. 8 Week A&P 1 with Edukan...what do you think?

    LanaBanana replied to LanaBanana's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Hey girls, I was thinking about changing to the session 1 AP2 with Terry Lee. I really need to get an A out of that class, and I'm not sure it's entirely possible for me with Simmons since I don't...

  25. Edukan's AP II with Dr. Kimmel

    LanaBanana replied to Chipola's topic in Online Distance Learning

    He's not offerred for the summer, but now I am thinking about switching to Lee who is teaching session 1. His grading scale seems much more fair. In Simmon's class, 62% of your grade is based on...
