  1. As far as nursing programs, I would only look at NLN accredited schools and BSN programs. Like EMS, there is a huge push for bachelor's degreed professionals and most hospitals I know of are limiting their hiring of new-grads to BSN unless you are already in their system. I have never heard of "The college network" but I would look at universities in your area and what their programs are like.
  2. pfft I have a lot going on right now...plus we all know nurses save medics so
  3. I realized that right after I posted the edit... I didn't realize it would change past posts also.. silly me! Just thought it was time for a new name also since I'm about to graduate. Thanks guys!

    Surprise!

    I'm going to be a mom! I know the ultrasound doesn't look like a whole lot but it's our little bean in there and we're very excited! I'm due Nov. 15 and this was my 7 week ultrasound so you can't see much. I'm 9 weeks now and we go back tomorrow to hear the heartbeat. I know a lot can happen in the first trimester and most people frown on announcing this this early but I'm just so excited I can barely contain myself! ETA: I did just change my name also so +5 if you figure out who I am:D
  5. Tonight when I get home... and it's not scary, well some night think it is, but I don't! And it'll no longer be a secret like Mike said, so it'll be ok.
  6. Where about in Maryland are you? Welcome to the site and back to EMS!
  7. A lot of us were around two years ago, but like Mike said, probably don't remember the 2 posts you made previously. Welcome back.
  8. That and no go on ties for the same reason you should never wear your stethoscope around your neck.... unless you would like to be strangled by one...
  9. I'm so bored and chat isn't working... I need something to distract me from my last paper I have to write...
  10. Same. Weekend clinicals killed me last weekend. I'm so ready to be done with school! 15 days!
  11. Perhaps this is a language barrier? Sanctuary: A place of refuge or safety, or immunity from arrest. It would be difficult for a uniform to become a sanctuary.
  12. I have not heard of it, but I think it's a great idea. EMS is a very physically demanding profession and so it makes sense to begin teaching physical training and wellness early on so that once you hit the field as a provider, the habits have already been formed and you can continue to stay in shape.
  13. Tragic. I've driven through that town on my way north before. I really hope they recover the victims soon and the families and town can begin to heal.
  14. Well said.
  15. Good job!
  16. Fortunately those I love who were at the race today are home safe and I have heard from them. Prayers to those who are struggling right now.
  17. Guillain Barre Syndrome (GBS)
  18. Here ya go Richard!
  19. This. It's always the safe bet to call the state office to ask these questions since no one here can officially tell you anything. Best of luck to you!!!
  20. Welcome!!! I'm curious, why the big move?
  21. I'm going to lurk this topic because I'm too stubborn to google and too brain tired/body tired right now to think it through.
