   Hi everyone. I just need a little support I guess. I passed my NCLEX last week, :yeah:and accepted a position in my local hospital's ICU starting in a few weeks. This was my goal job, when I entered nursing, so I'm beyond excited. I had a clinical in...

   choc0late replied to dinopurple3's topic in General Students

   I would call the testing center and tell them you have a prescription for the med and bring it to them. I would do something, that's for sure. If you have the bottle I would go right there with it and show them you are legally allowed to have them in...

   choc0late replied to SaraStrong's topic in General Nursing

   Where do you live? Geez, I'm so sorry you're having such a hard time finding a job. I'm in NY, and nobody I graduated with is unemployed luckily. Here's an idea too, I know sometimes your school has an "in" with certain hospitals. Maybe ask them if t...

9. Med Surg experience a must?

   choc0late replied to SaraStrong's topic in General Nursing

   I debated the same thing. I didn't think I was going to get the ICU job honestly, as they didn't really want to hire a new grad. So before I received the offer I was a wreck trying to figure out what to do. I was offered a position on the floor (resp...

10. Med Surg experience a must?

    choc0late replied to SaraStrong's topic in General Nursing

    choc0late replied to saillady's topic in Disabilities

    Thanks B52-H, I'd brought my bottle with me when I went. She made a copy of the label, but I haven't heard back from them. I went a week ago, she said they'd call if they needed anything. I'm still nervous, but so far no calls to withdraw my job :yea...

    I checked the PVT about an hour after my test, and got the good pop up. I proceeded to check it another 6x in the past two days until I got my quick results now, showing a pass!
