Nurse or Dental Hygenist?
I was planning on going to Nursing school (LPN) in 2009 if i am accepted and everything goes as i plan. I am taking pre reqs now and i am only in my sec semester. Right now i am taking math (algebra) and biology (101). I am having trouble in bio already and i am thinking about doing to the DH program. I know both educations are not easy. I am still waiting for the day when i will finally get it all down. I am from germany so there is a huge language problem here..... Should i stay with the nursing or should i go with the DH? Thanks for all the help.

If you relly feel you want to be a nurse go for it, but if you havea any doughts maybe being a nurse is not for you.
2 :
maybe if you are finding learning it hard then maybe its not for you....what if you are needed in an emergency and cant remember something that you learnt. on the other hand maybe you would be a good nurse but cant get to grips with something like algebra. but with dental hygenist you will be cleaning peoples mouths (especiallly those with periodontis and smelly breathe) all day... id choose nurse lol. but only you can make that decision. what would you be happier doing and what do you enjoy more?? its about that

I am currently in dental hygiene school, but their is still a lot of biology that you learn. The bones of the skull, the muscles of the head, neck and mouth, arteries, veins, anatomy of the teeth. It is a little challenging, but you can get through it. Regardless of what you pick, you should like what you're doing.

I want to be a nurse, but I want to travel
I want to be a nurse, but I want to travel
I was thinking about being a Missionary nurse. But from what Ive read and heard its too Christan for me (no offense to any Christians). I plan to become at least an RN and if I like it a lot I plan to either become a higher nurse or a doctor. Should I just stay in usa and wait till I'm old, but that seems less exciting if I'm old. Plus I want to go to Germany, England and Ireland A.S.A.P. Or is there another method that I'm unaware of?

There are lots of ways to be a nurse and travel. Many countries need nurses, so you could go that route, you could work on a cruise ship, or you could do humanitarian work in third world countries that are not necessarily run by Christian groups.
2 :
Quick question: Are you still in High School? If you are then i would go on the Wilderness and Traditional Medicine that is offered by Academic Treks in Belize. You need to ba at least 16 though. Also, If I were you, I would be a traveling nurse. Go to places that are in Dire need of medical care(ex: the Tsunami after christmas 2005) or in rural countries. Belize would be a great place! It is a multi biodiverse spot and it is a developing nation. Hope that helps some!

Anyone ever been to Landstuhl, Germany
Anyone ever been to Landstuhl, Germany?
I'll be going to Landstuhl, Germany and working in Landstuhl Regional Medical Center as an Army Nurse. Got my first duty station there :) Anyways, just wondering how it is to live there. Any personal experiences? How's the food? Is it expensive? How about housing? Are people friendly? Are Mercedes and BMW's cheaper there? Thanks

Hitler would come and kill you if you're from a country that fought with the Allies on WWII so don't go there!

Hey, i live in kaiserslautern, my husband is stationed here.... its pretty nice here - cold right now lol.... im german so this is going home for me... food is good, definetly go out and see the place and travel as much as you can... housing - well you didnt say that if you were married or not - if you are then its pretty nice if your not then you will be living in barracks, and honestly i dont know what they are like over in landstuhl lol.... yea most people are friendly and ALOT of people around here speak english, just cause k-town is really americanized... yea i think those cars are cheaper, but honestly it would proabably be better for you just to get a beater car when you get here for like 2000 dollars or something for the time you are here... if you do decide to buy a new car - you will need to get one in american specs meaning it will cost more otherwise you cant ship it back to the states.... if you have any more questions feel free to email me joencarolin.arrington@yahoo.com or on myspace www.myspace.com/woodstock0485

LOL@ YOU I would love to go

I was once at the Landstuhl Medical Center with my husband. It's a huge hospital. The area is near Ramstein Military Air Base, City Kaierslautern (we call K.town) where near 40.000 Soldiers with their families are. It's a nice place. You have I guess fun there. Food, shopping all great. You can also travel and see the Europe. Mercedes, BMW is for you here cheaper, because we are having Military Car Sales places and don't pay any taxes. So have fun in Landstuhl and happy new year. Army spouse from Germany...

Well, you're a nurse. That makes you an officer. You will get COLA which would probably be very high. You probably will get rent plus on top of your BAQ. If you buy a Mercedes or BMW, you can get the added value tax taken off by going to MWR and having them do the paper work. At least, that is how it used to be which means you get 19% off your car which if you want to take it back to stateside, you will have to have it made with American specs. Germans are much more friendlier to American than in the past. Not that they were bad before, but US stationed people come with money in their pockets. Something the Germans definitely have missed since the draw down. There are not that many post like there used to be. Food is good. Try to learn German, but you will not need it. You can get by without knowing German especially in the military areas. You have to get to Heidelburg. It is really nice and the headquarters command is there. A mistake that I made by taken so long to getting myself there.

Im at LRMC... so excited for you... your going to love it here!! Ive been to alot of other bases in Germany and this one has got to be the best so far. Landstuhl is an amazing little town with a lot of history. One of the neatest things is the Sickingen castle overlooking the town. Its got so many great restaurants and cafes. The food is INCREDIBLE!! The Euro rate fluctuates.. sometimes things can get a little expensive but its not bad. Housing is nice. It really is beautiful here.. eminently in the summer. The Germans are nice especially if they know your military. BMWs are like civics in the US (everybody has one) so their definitely cheaper here. Im sure your going to travel while your here so be sure to check out ryanair.com. I just got back from a trip to Italy and it cost 13 Euro... you can fly almost anywhere in europe for under 20 Euro. Anyways I could go on forever but I love it and I know you will. I hope you the best!!
