1. Accountable Healthcare Staffing in Lake Mary Florida

   Alexsys replied to Mrsearly2009's topic in Home Health

   If you guys are new grads and they offered you a position, was it a hospital one? If so, was it St Cloud? They do train new grad nurses for med/ surg positions there. I sent a friend of my niece to that place as a new grad

2. Are you a "Bonified" Nurse?

   Alexsys replied to gentlegiver's topic in General Nursing

   I would not mind wearing white. My only issue is the money it would cost me to keep replacing them. I could never properly care for whites. I even had to buy two extra sets of those awful school uniforms when I was in school. I didnt stain them, but ...

3. All preferences aside, what is the best "track" for a new nurse to learn?

   Alexsys replied to RevolutioN2013's topic in General Nursing

   Same here. I went straight to ICU. I loved it. I kept hearing that I should do med/surg first, but after a few years, I found that I made the best choice for myself

4. Does allnurses.com make you a better nurse?

   Alexsys replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

   In a way I have to disagree with the poster above me. I was a nurse( and a good one) before I discovered this site. Honestly, I feel that I have learned alot here. Especially when I read some sticky situations and the advice given on how to deal with...

5. More CNA woes.

   Alexsys replied to Virgo_RN's topic in General Nursing

   "I too happen to work in Illinois and it isn't as you describe, at least not at my hospital. I answer to the management. The RN is the leader, but she is NOT responsible for what I do/don't do." While what you type here is true, the other truth is th...

6. New Grad pay in Jax area

   Alexsys replied to MuddaMia's topic in Florida

   That is true. Alot of the GN programs are on hold now. One of my colleagues gave that exact list to her students about two years ago --before the recession

7. Anyone know someonet thats been to TECO?

   Alexsys replied to KIMMY03's topic in Florida

   That really is a good school. I was going to teach there but my ex hubby got a job transfer. The teachers are great, the classes are small, and they make sure you know your stuff before moving on. I did my LPN in MN many moons ago, but I wish I had g...

8. What's the point of getting a BSN?

   Alexsys replied to nikkir386's topic in ADN/BSN

   I started off with an ADN and went straight to my BSN (I had the time) I would not be a SRNA now if I didnt get that far. The BSN is for people that want to pursue a degree beyond undergraduate school. If a person is OK with an ADN, so be it. Nothing...

9. Is it safe to start out with an ADN?

   Alexsys replied to RNS5's topic in ADN/BSN

   The only difference in my experience between the ADN and BSN was the amount of papers I had to write.(More research papers for the BSN) I still got the same amount of clinical experience. However, I only chose the BSN route because I had dreams of a...

10. Is it safe to start out with an ADN?

    Alexsys replied to RNS5's topic in ADN/BSN

    I dont think that post was meant for you. There was a poster in here that made a post to look like they slammed BSN nurses for not being prepared. That post was meant for someone else

11. Places for New RN to apply in Northeast Florida?

    Alexsys replied to Elbajista's topic in New Nurse

    You should try Orange Park Medical Center. They are still hiring new grads. They are a teaching hospital, so you may have to deal with students, but after you get that first year of experience in, you wont be considered a new grad. Good luck to you:...

12. Absolutely FURIOUS!!!!

    Alexsys replied to AngelfireRN's topic in General Nursing

    Thant was unprofessional and no doubt, slander.:angryfire I would have reacted the same way and demanded the same.

13. Do Nurses Eat Their Young?

    Alexsys replied to Brian's topic in Relations

    I think the only reason why I was slammed on when I was a new nurse was probably because I went straight to critical care after I was done with school. I have heard many times that new grads had no place in critical care. I could understand why they ...

14. ASN RN to BSN online?

    Alexsys replied to MerdalRN's topic in ADN/BSN

    One of my neices went through South University RN to BSN online. She liked it.

15. ADN or BSN

    Alexsys replied to LV2BME's topic in General Nursing

    In my experience, I found it easier to get my ADN and then go back for the RN to BSN track. (At least that's what I did)
