  8. TWU Spring 2019 Nursing Applicants

    SunshineNRainbows replied to t_jay's topic in School, College Programs

    What do you mean? "Recognized"??? If you are referring to highly regarded, yes. Most of our clinicals are in the TMC and we are very highly regarded and preferred. I would say the top is a three way...

  9. Does anyone know about the VA nurse residency program in Dallas?

    SunshineNRainbows replied to Becky8's topic in Texas Nursing

    It's on the USAgov website, the federal employment website. They announce residency shortly before the application window. Your best bet is to contact the "Nurse Educator" at that location. They can...

  11. TWU Spring 2019 Nursing Applicants

    SunshineNRainbows replied to t_jay's topic in School, College Programs

    SunshineNRainbows replied to t_jay's topic in School, College Programs

  15. Fundamentals Proctor

    SunshineNRainbows replied to Melissarangel23's topic in Texas Nursing

    The exam will not test you on something you haven't learned. If it's a concept that seems advanced like "tracheostomy" then likely the question has nothing to do with the trach itself, and most likely...

  17. Fundamentals Proctor

    SunshineNRainbows replied to Melissarangel23's topic in Texas Nursing
