    I got notified today that I am a finalist! I can't believe it- this late in the game I was sure I was out of luck!
  3. Nurse Corps loan repayment 2015

    Me too. It sucks.
  4. Nurse Corps loan repayment 2015

    Nope, still waiting. At least we'll know by next Wednesday no matter what. This is a frustrating process.
  5. Nurse Corps loan repayment 2015

    I am tier 1 and >200%. I am really annoyed that it does not seem like the funds are awarded as described in the handbook. Unless I made some sort of mistake. Given that I read that handbook about 5 times front to back and pored over my application...
  6. Nurse Corps loan repayment 2015

    I am a CNM waiting. I do think it is a lost cause, and have pretty much given it up.

    I am giving up hope. It looks like last year almost everyone who was a finalist knew at this time. I'm a CNM in tier one with a facility score of 18 and a debt to income ratio >200%. It would be nice to just see the final "no" and get some closur...

  13. What are the top 5 medications YOU administer daily?

    Colace, heparin, oxy, tranxene and synthroid are the ones I give every night (or morning) without fail. Other common ones... metoprolol, reglan, vanc, zosyn, prednisone, omeprazole, miralax
  14. Creating a competitive OB resume

    I am a new grad and I am currently working on a Med/Surg/Tele unit. I fully plan on finishing out my first year in med/surg and I am dedicated to learning what I need and want to learn there, but L&D is where my heart is and I want to start work...
  15. What kind of holiday bonus do you get?

    Genius me, I volunteered to work 5 of 6 (night before, night of) holidays if I could have Christmas Eve off. What did I get for a bonus? A bonus night of work that I don't want- thats right, working Christmas Eve, too. And I got to work short staf...
