1. Public Health Nurse for Health Dept

   maia99 replied to NickiJules's topic in Public/Community

   I started off as a new grad in public health. Since I work primarily with a pediatric population, I don't think that I missed out by not having worked in a standard med/surg unit, but I probably would have benefited with a little time on a ped unit. ...

   maia99 replied to freckled's topic in Job Hunt

   It's my turn to scour the boards looking for the answer to this question. I have a few weeks to prepare, and this will certainly get me started. Thank you mariebailey for the info. Any other advice out there?

   maia99 replied to BarneyJ's topic in California

   I didn't send in any documentation with mine, and I just found out that my appeal has been approved. I've been staying home with my 2 now not so little kids for the last 10 years, and haven't been employed. I have no documentation to prove it, and ...

   maia99 replied to BarneyJ's topic in California

   Hi Sarah, I am going to be at the CPR class after orientation. My current certification is not at healthcare provider level and this one is less than half the price I was going to pay at the hospital where I volunteer. Seemed like a good deal to m...

   maia99 replied to BarneyJ's topic in California

   Hi runningrn2b, I understand completely. I've waited for a while for the right time and program. I was accepted into Samuel Merritt's ABSN also, but this program feels like a much better fit for me. It's a happy compromise between the SMU's accele...

   Our deadline to accept was on the 27th, so 1 week ago. They gave us about 6 days. I suspect that they are working on the alternates still, since we haven't heard anything since. Good luck!

   Hi, I heard that I got in about 2 weeks ago on the 21st, but don't know much more right now. I don't know if you've heard anything from them since you posted this, but they may still be going through the alternate list. We had a deadline for Sac St...

    Hi cateisgreat, Don't give up hope yet. It seems as if the calls are going out in the evenings, and they probably aren't done yet. Mine came at about 6 last night. I don't know haw many they do in the evening, but you would think that with about 4...

    I doubt that you'll need to worry about it next year. Your waitlist number is great, and I think you'll get in.

    maia99 replied to JeninCA's topic in California

    @smschobert, I'm good - just found out I got into Sac State's new ABSN, so no matter what, I'm going to nursing school. Yeehah!!! Still waiting to hear from SMU about their ABSN, but it finally seems that it's meant to be.

    maia99 replied to JeninCA's topic in California

    shschobert, I was 11. It was kind of crazy last year since there weren't many options for 2nd baccalaureates in the Sac area. Pretty much everybody with a BS who needed to stay in the Sac area had to apply to either of SMU's programs offered here. ...

    maia99 replied to JeninCA's topic in California

    Hi JeninCA, I completely agree with BeHere. I was waitlisted last year for ELMSN FNP, my number never came up, and now I'm waiting to hear about the various programs I applied to this year. I was disappointed about not making it in, but I ended up ...
