  2. I want to make a correction to my former post. The fact right now is that if you do not pass your final comprehensive HESI the SECOND time you take the test, you have to enroll in a class to remediate for it then take the test again. The TIME at whic...
  3. New nurses thinking of leaving nursing

    Thank you to the OP who started this thread. I am weeks away from graduating from a nursing program and have been experiencing doubts about whether I want to start at the bedside at my first job. I come from a teaching back ground and really enjoyed ...
  4. Thanks for the information. I am more motivated to finish school knowing that I have options to work in community health post-grad. Squirt 2008, did you have to work in the hospital initially before getting hired by the health department? After 10 m...
  5. Hey all Has the OP decided where to go? On the ACE PROGRAM.. Someone mentioned that we do 3 rotations each quarter--that is right. Sometimes, I get the institutional policies mixed up. For example: a med room password.. I'd go to clinical 1 and star...

  12. I think in that way, its a little like some medical schools where first and second year grades are based solely on exams. It seems more objective but I can see the frustration of this as well when there are only 2 or 3 single factors that calculate ...
