I have now been a nurse for 3 years......could of been for 4...but the NCLEX scared me todeath...I took a year off...but then I got married...move from illinois....to hawaii.....and when I took it...the the min amount of questions.....thought for sure I didn't passed! when I got that small white envelope!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I jumped for joy! I worked in hospitals for 2 years...now I am home health. Every day I can come to something I never seen...thats what is exciting about nursing...you always learn....and never be afraid to ask! I have found this websit to be great!!! so good luck!!! :hatparty:
