1. Vandy MSN - Clinical Experience

   crashcart27 replied to Browndog's topic in Tennessee

   I work at vandy now and most of my colleagues are going thru one of the msn programs at vandy. I've heard much of the same dialogue. It sounds like vandy is an okay program if a) you want vandy behind your name b) if you have significant experience i...

2. Transferring RN License to TN

   crashcart27 replied to pattiv's topic in Tennessee

   I recently transferred my license. I got my paperwork in on December 3rd and I was told to expect it in 6 weeks. The problem is that it is 6 weeks from the time they get your fingerprints and it took them 2 weeks to get me the fingerprint sheet. It t...

3. Nashville Job Outlook

   crashcart27 replied to 2 r MC1R's topic in Tennessee

   I would look into Vandys nurse residency program. We have 10 new grads rotating thru our unit right now that went thru the residency program. I think it's become harder across the board to get a job as a new grad. I've lived in other places and I wou...

   crashcart27 replied to SCNP2B's topic in Post Graduate

   T-dasha, Where did you get the waitlist info? I called and they wouldnt release any information about how many or how they choose who gets the spots from the waitlist. I applied for FNP. Hopefully we luck out!

5. Confused about Vandy's tuition reimbursement.

   crashcart27 replied to mmcmarsh's topic in Tennessee

   I found out directly from my future manager at Vandy that they pay up to 12 credit hours per year after working there for 15 months (3 months probationary period+ 1 year). However, you have to remain a full-time employee while going to school, which ...

6. Thoughts on St. Joseph Medical Center? Does a new grad have chance for job there?

   crashcart27 replied to hearts895, RN BSN's topic in Washington

   I would stick to this general rule of thumb: if a place of employment has numerous job openings, there may be a reason for it.

7. Confused about Vandy's tuition reimbursement.

   crashcart27 replied to mmcmarsh's topic in Tennessee

   Did you ever find out more about this? I will be moving to Nashville some time in the next 6 months. I'd move sooner if I knew they were going to help pay for my tuition!

   crashcart27 replied to odugrad's topic in Post Graduate

   I had called the school the morning before I received the envelope. They said that all the letters would be out within a week or so, so hopefully you will hear something soon. I had a 3.82 gpa with 2 years med/surg and ICU experience. Are you pretty ...

10. University of South Alabama NP program

    crashcart27 replied to rachelaleanRN2B's topic in Post Graduate

    Blessedx3, how do you like the FNP program so far? It seems there are a lot of mixed reviews on here about the online programs. I was accepted for the dual FNP/ACNP and the cost is right, but want to make sure it is a good program. Thanks in advance....

11. University of South Alabama FNP

    crashcart27 replied to odugrad's topic in Post Graduate

    I got accepted into the FNP/ACNP program. Received a regular sized envelope in the mail yesterday. Not sure if I'm going to accept here or wait for letters for the fall-start schools I applied to.

12. Is anybody familiar with tacoma new grad residencies?

    I have a year experience (with some ICU but mostly med-surg) and I was placed in the "fast-track program" which is a residency in which you receive 40% classroom and 60% clinicals for 3 months. After that it sounds like you train for about a year bef...
