I moved to Atlanta from Florida after I graduated. I took the Florida boards in Georgia and then applied for endorsement. I received endorsement in 2 weeks, with no problems. Goodluck!
I have the opportunity to work on a tele unit at a teaching hospital. I was very excited until I asked the NM about the nurse to patient ratio. She said that it is anywhere between 1:5 to 1:8. I'm thinking anything over 1:6 has to be unsafe. I really...
I recently applied for a job that was posted as 7a - 7p 40 hours per week. If you're working three days a week at 12 hours each shift, does that mean that you would have to do an extra 4 hours per week? I don't have a clue on this one.

For those of you who work nights, how do you maintain your weight? Seems to me that you would gain weight if you're eating dinner, in the mornings and then going home after work and going to bed. I'm only a student nurse now, but I want to work night...
What is the difference between the Littman Master Stethescope and the Classic II SE? Which is better? I'm starting Nursing school next week and want to buy a stethescope asap. Any input would be appreciated.
We will be using that one also. I skimmed through it and the writing is very small and it doesn't look user friendly. I plan on doing some reading before classes start and I'll let you know.
