  1. Kern Medical Center, Bakersfield 2014

    Hi! I was wondering if you're still working there and whether they still take new grads in ED? If so, what was your experience like?
  2. Best way to avoid bedside care?

    Yes, our system equips us with a triage tool but we can't just rely on it. We need to use our nursing judgement to adequately triage. I can see how this would be hard for a new grad without experience but hopefully if you've made the most out of you...
  3. Best way to avoid bedside care?

    What state do you live in? I got into a new grad ambulatory program at Kaiser Permanente in California and the training is extensive! We are training in family, peds, nurse clinic, urgent care and specialties for 6 months with a preceptor, weekly cla...
  4. Passed NCLEX Without Studying

    Hi everyone, I've come across this question on several forums and thought I'd share my experience of passing the NCLEX without having studied. I've been an LVN for 6 years so I have some experience in the field (I work outpatient at an urgent care, n...
  5. Scheduled my exam! Any one else testing next week? (July 7th)

    Hi everyone, just got my results and found out I passed too!!! I tested July 7th at 2pm and woke up this morning and saw my name on the California BRN website (so less than 48 hours, which is great for CA!) Definitely don't recommend sitting for the ...
  6. Scheduled my exam! Any one else testing next week? (July 7th)

    Hi everyone! I'm testing tomorrow at 2pm as well but unlike you all, I haven't studied at all. I graduated May 22nd with a 4.0 GPA and I felt I was pretty strong test taker throughout the entire nursing program so I feel like I'll either know the con...
  7. Kaiser Permanente New Grad Interview

    If you don't mind me asking, what is the hourly pay for RN's in SD at Kaiser?
  8. CSULB Fall 2012 BSN

    I guess the scheduling issues were out of their hands and seemed to be more of a clinical facility issue. I wrote the department an e-mail and they seem to be taking my concern seriously so I'm content with that at least. Best of luck to you!

    Actually, on second thought, I would hoenstly discourage you from attending CSULB. The way they have managed this program since the beginning has been a disaster. They change classes and times at their leisure without any regards to the lives of peop...
  10. CSULB Fall 2012 BSN

    Hey, I'm currently a 2nd semester student, mommy of a 2 year old, and I also work. I currently live in Laguna Hills and the drive hasn't been too bad so far. If you don't have Patho, Pharm, and Nutrition out of the way you're going to have an insanel...

    Nursing patches were $6 each and ID was $2 if I remember correctly
  13. CSULB Fall 2012 BSN

    We don't need books for Monday. I'm waiting until the shipment comes in next week. I'm sure if there's anything we need in class as far as books we'll be able to share or something during this first week.
  14. CSULB Fall 2012 BSN

    I was at the bookstore yesterday buying the nursing patches and they said they MIGHT have the books sometime next week. Considering the fact we start class next week I was really annoyed that they still haven't gotten any of the new boxes... Not to m...

    2 transcripts; one for admissions and 2 for the nx department. I wasn't told a deadline for them but I'd turn them in as soon as possible.
