Anyone get accepted recently?

My packet was completed and is to be submitted to the board this month. How long did you all have to wait to hear some news? And if you got accepted, when will you be going to ODS?

Im currently credentialed in Critical Care but only have 7 months of experience. I was a medical surgical nurse for about 2.5 years prior to moving to the ICU. Overall I've been a nurse for 3 years. Trying to get my hours to take the CCRN.

Any advice would help.

Mine took about 2 months. (Sent to board middle of October, I found out that I was selected on December 12th.) I haven't really heard anything else since then. I know the holidays delay things. So perhaps I will hear more soon. I still don't know when I will swear in, when I will go to ODS, or anything else.

Awesome! What are you credentialed for? Hoping I hear some good news soon. My recruiter said the boards will meet on January 15th. Crossing my fingers.

I am credentialed for ER/Trauma. Good luck! I know how you feel. It seems like the waiting will never end! I started this process almost exactly 1 year ago. :dead: lol

j.a.m.rn13 I know its been about a year but I am wondering how long it took you to get orders after you were selected. I am waiting to submit my packet and am anxious to hear back, hopefully soon so I can get to ODS asap

thanks

I actually didn't get orders until May and went to ODS in June. I don't think it typically takes that long. Apparently it had to do with availability of spots in ODS and funding for issuing new accession orders at the time.

I recently got selected for Critical Care and was wondering how long the scroll process, commissioning, etc takes?

KymacRN the board meets every 15th of the month. I was supposed to find out in June but my recruiter said that the board didn't meet until June 15th and I found out I got selected the first week of July.

When they told you you were accepted did they also give you your orders and ODS dates?
