3. Experiences with Western Governors University???

   jae_mc replied to coopman712's topic in Western Governors

   I'm at the last 6 months of my BSN program and I have been VERY happy (and tired!). Easily made the decision of doing my MSN in Education at WGU as soon as I finish.

4. Help with career decision

   jae_mc replied to HeartNursing3's topic in Ambulatory

   I agree with a previous poster stating that the deciding factor would be Peds vs Adult. Also, depending on how soon you want to go back to school would also be a factor.

5. Primary Care nursing - new to me!

   jae_mc replied to lshell7's topic in Ambulatory

   I know how you feel. I was brand new to telephone triage and clinic nursing when I started it a year and a half ago and I was petrified. Make sure you follow your clinic's protocols. If someone fits the criteria for strep throat (i.e. positive resu...

   jae_mc replied to tater.jake's topic in Western Governors

   I agree that the Health Assessment class was a great refresher. Tedious, but worth it!

7. New grad RN in med-spa

   jae_mc replied to diigital dream's topic in Ambulatory

   I worked at a med-spa for 2 years mainly doing laser hair removal. Although you're not using your med-surg skills learned in school, there's still nursing assessment and lots teaching going on. Do you know how many times I've had to tell a patient to...

9. CHLA New Grad Program March 2013

   jae_mc replied to starghadeer's topic in California

   The Los Feliz Village by CHLA is great. A lot of young professionals. I used to live there and it was only a couple of blocks from Griffith Park (huge park to hike, etc). Franklin Ave has a lot of apartments, as well as Los Feliz Blvd. but anywhere a...

10. UW Madison New Grad phone interview

    jae_mc replied to al_e135's topic in Wisconsin

    I'm not a new grad but I applied to UW from out of state and had a phone interview last week. Best thing I did was go on the UW website and under the jobs section, they have an interview tips page. It lists questions you can expect to be asked. It's ...

11. Phone Interview Help

    jae_mc replied to yourstrulyjmc's topic in Job Hunt

    I had a couple of phone interviews a while back. What I learned to do in the second one that I didn't do on the first one was to pick up the phone and say "Hi, this is ____." Instead of an awkward "Hello?" It shows that YOU are ready for the intervie...

    Has ANYONE heard from CSULA? I'm wondering if no one is posting an update because of that or not.

14. pasadena city college nursing program spring 2008

    jae_mc replied to mashamontago's topic in California

    Alternates do have a chance to get in; like they said before, some people decide to choose other school so spots open up. When I started the program, we had about 65 students. I think PCC is a lottery, I dunno how they're doing it anymore. But I got ...
