   beatrocka replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Headlines

   I personally spoke to Katie for my podcast, and she told me that for NY MED, they needed interesting nurses and she was one of the chosen ones. No one wants to watch boring tv. It's always easy to make assumptions and more about someone until you act...

2. ABC TV:NY Med shows ER nurse fired due to social media post

   beatrocka replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Headlines

   I interview Katie for my podcast and she is a great person. She helps and supports all those around her. The actual issue is there are blurred lines with how something that is integral to society like social media is feared rather than being understo...

   beatrocka replied to SC APRN's topic in General Students

   I don't know about everyone else, but being my last semester, I have a set plan of finishing in May '12 and taking my NCLEX at the first available date. So taking a break is not all the way an option. I've been doing my readings and working and liste...

8. Any nurse externs out there?

   beatrocka replied to cnyeco1's topic in Oklahoma

   It's all good. Whether you get an externship or not bears no closure on you getting a job period. What do I mean by that? It means that upon passing the nclex, it may take you 6 months average to a year maximum ( though I have seen people who got job...

    beatrocka replied to denise0815's topic in New Jersey

    By the way, I think your med-surg book for nursing 2 is still the same. I can email you the syllabus and the exam grid + the pharmacology exam questions so you can hit the ground with your sneakers on, ready to run. Let me know.

    beatrocka replied to denise0815's topic in New Jersey

    Glad to hear that you are blocking out the negativity. One thing's for sure, nursing 2 is different. The books below were helpful in nursing 2. If you are able to, you can take a trip to the barnes and nobles in Clifton during the semester and do qu...
