1. Seeking advice for an NCLEX applicant newly diagnosed with retinal detachment

   Mishey2 replied to Mishey2's topic in Disabilities

   Thanks for replying! Well if those nurses can work with one eye, so can he. He might have to just be selective in what nursing fields he chooses to work in. His worry right now though is with the State Board if he should disclose now or after some mo...

2. Seeking advice for an NCLEX applicant newly diagnosed with retinal detachment

   Mishey2 posted a topic in Disabilities

   I am posting this for someone who is not a part of the All Nurses community and is too upset to post himself. A person I know from Canada applied to sit for the NCLEX for a U.S. state last month with no visual problems whatsoever. A week after submit...

3. PH RN

   Mishey2 replied to carol22's topic in California

   Hi Carol, You did not mention anything about wanting to work in the U.S. immediately as a nurse but I'm assuming that's the case. Before applying to a state board, take care of the immigration requirement first so that you will have a required U.S....

   Happy you found a job :)

5. Currently in USA. RN in PH but no experience. any advise?

   Mishey2 replied to HestyLiu's topic in International

   Is some states, they will only allow you to take a refresher course after you pass the NCLEX and are licensed for that specific state. I'm not sure how that works in Missouri. I think what you mean is a review course. I would highly recommend a live ...

6. How to become LVN

   Mishey2 replied to Nurse1027's topic in Registration

   If you want to work as an LVN first, apply to sit for the CA NCLEX-PN on the CA BVNPT website and have your school send your school documents to CGFNS for evaluation and wait a few months or so for them to evaluate and process everything and approve...

7. What school supplies did you live by during nursing school?

   Mishey2 replied to KJRod's topic in General Students

   Definitely a daily/weekly/monthly planner so I could plan for upcoming project deadlines/tests/exams, clinical rotations, et cetera. Cell phone calendar for short-term planning. Laptop plus a printer, of course, are staples. Cloud storage for documen...

8. BEWARE of online nursing degrees

   Mishey2 replied to scandy's topic in General Nursing

   Hard lesson learned too late. I went on their site and yes at first, they make themselves sound like a bridging nursing school until you read the lengthy footnote that they are only a test prep site. Thank you AN members for posting about this busin...

9. Pre-Nursing Units I should take? (CSUEB or SFSU)

   Mishey2 replied to shin_eee's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Glad I was of some help. Thank you!

10. Pre-Nursing Units I should take? (CSUEB or SFSU)

    Mishey2 replied to shin_eee's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I just realized you still have to take the GE and prereq requirements at either CSUEB or SFSU before you can register for the nursing core classes. I was thinking it was like a straight 4-year BSN program. Do note that they give priority to students ...

11. Pre-Nursing Units I should take? (CSUEB or SFSU)

    Mishey2 replied to shin_eee's topic in Pre-Nursing

    If you have a high enough GPA, I say go straight to the 4- year BSN. Honestly, it's best to go straight to a 4-year nursing program right out of high school if you are in Northern California. I heard from a cousin who went through SFSU's BSN program ...

12. RN in the Philippines wants to become a USRN in Washington State

    Mishey2 replied to edvtavares's topic in Registration

    CGFNS took a few months because of a few problems: they said they lost some pages of my original files that were transferred from CP to CES. I had to re-request many of the other documents from my nursing school and PRC to send to CGFNS. I made an er...

13. Newbie Pinay Nurse Need Advice in Processing NCLEX

    Mishey2 replied to cjbt23's topic in Registration

    I need to update this. I applied to WA state mid-last year and was accepted to sit for the NCLEX after being denied in CA due to the concurrency issue. At first, I believed that list of states enforcing the concurrency rule and instead of applying to...

14. Healthcare assistant/patient care assistant in singapore

    Mishey2 replied to margaux31's topic in International

    I'm weighing the options here only based on experience of friends and relatives and what research I have obtained online. The typical salary I see online for an RN in KSA is 3,000-6,000 per month but since you have free accommodation, you will be ab...

15. CNA or LVN ??? help please!

    Mishey2 replied to mmaeu's topic in Registration

    As SilverDragon102 said, unfortunately, there are no visa sponsorships for CNA. I checked for PCT, there are also no visa sponsorships. I incorrectly assumed you may already have a U.S. work visa because you said you were moving to California next ye...
