| Super Moderator | Local high school students to learn nursing May 18 2005: Tennessee: Local high school students to learn nursing at camp:"Local high school students with dreams of a career in nursing can move one step closer by participating in Nurse Camp 2005 at Jackson-Madison County General Hospital. For the second year in a row, the hospital will offer up to 25 students the opportunity to try out a career in nursing for a week before they commit to a nursing program in college." http://miva.jacksonsun.com/miva/cgi-...00505187220545 ************************************************** **** Andrew Lopez, RN http://www.4nursing.com |

| Re: Local high school students to learn nursing we don't have nurse camp but in the highschool in the town I work they have a health careers class where they choose a few options of health career fields then rotate through those areas then for the end of the semester they get it narrowed down to one area then everyday from 8-10:30 they are in the one area. We've had a couple of pretty sharp gals come through OB. They've gotten in on vag deliveries and sections as well as the daily running of L&D. |

| Re: Local high school students to learn nursing In New Mexico you can go through the LPN program while you are still in high school. When you graduate high school you are a GPN and just have to take the test. I have run into some maturity issues with these kids, especially if they go right into working as a charge nurse in LTC otherwise I think they do well for the most part. |
