  1. Eisenhower new grad and JFK memorial Versant?

    They ask questions that are fit for a newgrad, nothing like they would ask an experienced nurse. Questions are not too difficult. They are trying to get to know you. Does anyone know if JFK has made a decision on who they want to hire for Versant? I...
  2. Any Ironwood or Chuckawalla nurses here?

    Bump.
  3. Very helpful!! Thank you!
  4. i believe i made it pretty clear with regard to my expectations for a response. i directly asked if hospitals were hiring in oc. i did not ask about passing the nursing program or the nclex. with a 4.0 gpa for the past three and a half years, i have...
  5. i thought it was rude as well. i posted a very valid concern and question. both my concern and question were shot down by her. oh well... lol. being that we can obtain a temporary permit to start working with an rn, contingent upon passing the nclex,...
  6. This contradicts what the director of our program is telling us. We need to start figuring out where we want to work and start looking into new grad programs. The time has come. Please do not post unless you have some constructive advice.
  7. Hello, I will be graduating with an RN degree this December. I plan on taking my nclex shortly after. I will be applying for a new grad position in South Orange County, CA. Does anyone know if the hospitals are hiring new grad RN's? HOAG hospital wou...
  8. Tripler Medical Center- New Grads?

    i agree with lisamsn. it's bad advice. i would like to add that i am getting tired of hearing this type of advice. a person who will remain "nameless" has been trying to prevent rn's from moving to the island for at least two years now with extremely...
  9. nursing in california/ advice

    There are people in our program that live both 1 and 2 hours away. They each carpool and make it work. It's tough, but can be done. They always schedule classes together and the other students switch clinical days with them if needed so that they can...
  10. nursing in california/ advice

    I'm a little confused on this message. Is she saying that a Phd will be required to be a nurse in 2015? If so, I really don't think that is true. That would only add to our nursing shortage. A PhD is incredibly expensive. Perhaps she is saying that a...
  11. nursing in california/ advice

    You are correct. It's terrible.... There are many factors that add to the problem. For example, it's very difficult to find nursing school instructors. As RN's, they make more money at the hospitals than teaching in an RN program. Schools can't even ...
  12. nursing in california/ advice

    Once you finish your pre-req's, I would apply all over the state. This is what you will have to do if you want to get into a program soon. Some schools require different pre-req courses than others. I just took them all (some even online). I sent my ...
  13. UPDATE: New grad RN programs in Hawaii

    Aloha xj3nnerz, Thanks for posting this last year. Do you happen to have an update on new grad programs for 2010? I actually don't graduate until this December, but I'm just curious. I'll be applying for a 2011 new grad program. Does it look like thi...
  14. Unfortunately, our instructors get very upset when we use nandas such as pain, constipation, and impaired skin integrity. While these are great nandas, they feel we aren't thinking outside of the box. In addition, everyone ends up using the same nand...
  15. My instructor would like us to select a primary nursing diagnosis for our patient. Could "impaired breastfeeding related to deficient knowledge about breastfeeding" be a primary Nanda for a c-section patient? My patient is a post-op cesarean section...
