   I also moved from out of state and couldn't get into a new grad program at both Presby or CMC. I FINALLY got a new grad position at CMC (after 4 months of applying) so like the previous person said, keep your eye out for positions that specificallys...

2. Prep-U

   rcmageeRN replied to pamearls's topic in Educators

   I'm not an educator but we used it our last 2 trimesters of school. The first trimester we were required to reach a mastery level of 6 on each category (I can't remember what they were but you could take quizzes by category or subject). The second ...

8. IV Therapy skills taught in school?

   rcmageeRN replied to IvnurseAmanda's topic in General Nursing
