  1. I have a friend in a similar situation. A drug seeking patient called the nurse advocate and accused her of diverting. So they escorted her off the floor midshift, not discreetly. She did a urine and blood drug screen and is awaiting results. They to...
  2. Wolford College CRNA February 2016 entry

    I was just accepted for the class starting in February. Sounds like a huge risk to commit to this school. It sounds like if accreditation is pulled I would still finish with the teach through plan, but what would the quality of that education be? The...
  3. WGU masters in Leadership and Management anyone in or completed???

    I am a new grad RN, and I was looking into this program. As a new grad I'm a little ways from attempting a management position. This program appeals to me because of the cost and self pace. I'm curious what other things could I do with this degree? ...
  4. Negotiate New Salary: New Graduate

    I will be a new grad in May and have received an offer about 2.5 hours from where I live. Its in the ICU, the department I wanted, but is also 3-5$ less than what I was expecting/hoping to get. Its the same salary I make in my non-nursing job and I w...
  5. Soon to be Graduate LPN/ St. Louis

    I am graduating from an AT-BSN May 12. I have worked part time through the entire program. I have worked as a Unit Secretary/Nurse Tech in a Hospital for about 1/2 the program. It was the best experience I possibly could have gotten. I don't feel my ...
  6. I'm in, how to prepare for nursing school?

    My lil sis just got fully accepted to Penn Valley RN program. Nursing tests are so different from general ed test, what resources can I get her to help her prepare for the critical thinking based tests? For my program I tried NCLEX test prep books be...
  7. I won't graduate until May 12 with my RN/BSN, but with all the talk of new grads having trouble getting their foot in the door I want to be ready and ahead of the game. I am curious what kinds of certs or experience might help me towards my end goal....
  8. Penn Valley RN Program

    I got into a better program at a better school before I was accepted at Penn Valley. Its more expensive but i'm 1/2 way in now, and I wouldn't have even started the Penn Valley until Fall 11
  9. Penn Valley RN Program

    I got in with I think points of 3.64 or something, and turned down the spot. I'm not entirely sure they go strictly be the points though. That seems pretty low compared to over 6. I have a good educational history with 2 degrees under my belt, and al...
  10. One Of The Saddest Things I've Seen... Can't Stop Laughing

    I am a nursing student, and recently my mom was hospitalized with pneumonia. She is fine now, but she spent several days in the ICU. One of the days I was with her I noticed her young nurse with 2 nursing students from different schools following her...
  11. Path to Becoming an Air Force Nurse

    BlazerGuy, Thanks for the reality! Yeah I know its hard for everyone right now, its good to know what to expect. Military was almost a back up for me, knowing what a hard time I will have as a new grad. I guess my main concern is if it is a decision...
  12. Path to Becoming an Air Force Nurse

    I am just starting my research into military RN options. I didn't realize it was so competitive to get in. Is this a particular program or is it in general? Is it difficult to get into all branches, or is it Air Force in particular? I will have my RN...
  13. BSN to ADN transfer programs

    I'm not sure if there is a preference in my area, I am in Kansas City. I actually don't care where I get a job, if I have to relocate that would be fine with me. I know in KC they are pushing LPNs out of hospitals, and from what I'm told there are ce...
  14. BSN to ADN transfer programs

    I have started an accelerated track BSN-RN program. I was also accepted into an ADN nursing program. The AT-BSN that I am in right now is very expensive and I am having trouble finding help and scholarships because I already have a bachelor's degree....
  15. CRNA Jobs?

    I'm about to start an AT-BSN to grad in May 2012. I also am hoping to get a CRNA as my career of choice, I'm a bit worried though with all the talk of scarce jobs for new RN's. Especially since I consider myself a B average student, capable of A's bu...
