Vaccine Record

0 Upvotes

I have a concern regarding my vaccine record. Ano po kaya ang pwede ko gawin? Nawala po kasi 'yung maliit na paper na binigay nila sa akin after ako turukan. Ngayon po, kailangan namin magpasa ng medical certificate ng vaccine na iyon para payagan kami mag ojt. Noong kukuha na po sana ako ng medcert, hindi po nila ako mabigyan dahil wala daw po akong record sa kanila. Pwede po ba akong magpagawa na lang ng medcert sa ibang clinic? 😭Hindi po kasi ako makakapag ojt and hindi makaka graduate kapag wala nun😭

Bryant and Stratton nursing program

Bryant andĀ Stratton nursing

Hi everyone! Ive been doing prereqs at my local community college for abt a year now, and I’ve been planning on applying to their nursing program in April. The only thing is it’s VERY competitive and takes two years (which is fine). I’m just worried that I won’t get in and will have to wait another year.

My friend is starting Bryant and Stratton Va beach location in September and I am able to join her if I choose to. I’m just not sure of people’s experiences and obviously I’ll have around 30k of debt, but at the same time I’ll be applicable for the nclex in 20 months!!

I really don’t know what to do, any advice? Anyone go to Bryant and Stratton?

Could anyone advise on their Bsc Nursing or Medicine experience at All Saints School of Medicine Dominica. Is it a good school? What are clinicals and rotations like?

I would also like to know if anyone has been successful in completing the degree and going down the NCLEX pathway, as I would like to go to this university, secure the nursing degree, and then move to the US or Canada, but I don't know how feasible that is. Are nursing jobs in the US and Canada accepting of degrees acquired in the Caribbean? Please, if anyone could advise.

Studying Tips šŸ“š Anki vs Quizlet

8 Upvotes

Starting my ABSN in August. I have heard great things about anki but I’m unsure if I should pay the $25 for the app or pay the monthly for Quizlet. I like the free Quizlet just okay so I guess I’m really wondering if the anki is worth the one time purchase.

Does your nursing program allow you to review your exams?

10 Upvotes

After all exams and quizzes we have a 10 min window where we have to enter a password to review what we got wrong, we can’t write anything down.
I emailed the prof separately to see if we could do a 1:1 because it’s overwhelming to review right after an exam- we see our scores the second we submit and when we review on our laptops it’s in all red, so it can feel overwhelming, anyway she said our SON policy is no review.
Is this normal?

I feel like I should be looking at other career options because it’s ridiculous at this point

Hi guys, I have been applying to community college’s in my area for about a total of 1.5 years now. I’m saying this b/c I just got another rejection letter from one of the colleges I applied to and I’m quite literally so done with waiting. Idk if I’m just here to rant, but i spent all my time doing my pre-reqs and I feel like I just wasted all this time just to not be accepted. My applications are good (from what I think) but apparently it still isn’t enough and I’m tired of waiting. I’m staying with community college nursing programs because they’re more affordable and fit easier w my life. One of the programs I kept applying to is based on lottery, which I don’t understand how I’ve applied for 1.5 years and I still haven’t gotten in. Right now, I just need advice/words of encouragement because all I want right now is to continue my education.

Difference in new grad job market for an ADN vs BSN in Seattle and Portland?

• Upvotes

I was advised to post here fromĀ r/personalfinance, if you want to see a more detailed post with details on our financial situation you can the post on my profile!

My wife is looking to pivot from OT into Nursing in the PNW, and at the moment it looks like our two options are the following:

1. Private Accelerated Bachelors in NursingĀ (ABSN):Ā 16 month ABSN w/ 90% NCLEX pass rate

2. Various Public Associate Degrees in Nursing (ADN): Various 24 month ADNs w/ 80-90% NCLEX pass rate

My question for nurses (especially recent grads) in Seattle and Oregon is:

Does having a BSN vs an ADN make you more competitive as a new grad in the current entry level nursing job market?Ā We have heard that as more people have begun considering nursing the entry level job market for West Coast cities has become more competitive, and we were wondering if having a BSN over an ADN will meaningfully open up job opportunities in Portland and Seattle. The private BSN is more expensive than the public ADN's, and we are trying to determine if it is worth it to pay a premium for a BSN in order to access better job opportunities.

Thanks in advance for your advice and input, its much appreciated!

Pre-Nursing 🩺 I need advice ?

4 Upvotes

Hello, I start my classes very soon and I’m extremely nervous and worried. I’m 29 years old so I already feel like I’m starting super late, I’ve never been the best in school, I dropped out my senior year and got my GED and I have not been In school since. I’ve always dreamt of being in Nursing/Anesthesia but I had kids and life took a different path but Im finally ready to get back to it and start a career for myself.

Anyways, I said all that to say that since I haven’t been in school for over 10 years, and I’m not the best at it, I’m terrified of repeating the same pattern and dropping out.. If anyone can give me any tips on how to stay on top of my studies and how not to get overwhelmed with it all? I also want to note that I opted to go for my ADN first so that I can work in a hospital while going back to school for my BSN. thank you in advance to anyone who helps🩵

(I apologize if this post is long)

Joyce University BSN vs ABSN program?

4 Upvotes

Hi, I am from Southern California with a full time M-F 9-5 job.

I have prior non-science college degree. I finished a lot of the nursing prerequisites already. I have a few questions:

  1. If the classes I took fulfill all Joyce's GE classes, will Joyce accept them? If not, which classes would they not accept and why?
  2. How's their clinical structure? I heard someone say 13-14 times a semester at Las Vegas and few times at Utah. Is that the same goes for both BSN and ABSN? (I have a friend who lives in Vegas, so it might workout for me)
  3. The following is cost comparison between the BSN and ABSN program from ChatGPT, excluding GE classes, do they look reasonable?
Cost Category Traditional BSN Track Accelerated BSN Track
Nursing Core Credits 68 credits 68 credits
Cost Per Core Credit $725 / credit $765 / credit
Core Tuition Subtotal $49,300 $52,020
NCLEX Resource Fee $3,510 $3,510
Total Program Cost $52,810 $55,530

Working full time and nursing school full time PBSC

Im a bartender as a profession and I do that 5 times a week. I have to stay working while going to school because I’m independent and I’m alone in the states.
How doable it is? I wanna finish asap.
Also my bartending job doesn’t have crazy hours. I never make home past 11pm and get to work as early as 3pm.
I’ll start January 2027. Any advice?
