About Hope32

I'm a RN-BSN new grad, struggling to find a job like everyone else. Trying not to get discouraged in this job market. I like to read, hike and watch movies.

  1. New Grad - What should I ask the interviewer.

    These are very good tips. I just had an interview with SHC and blew it because I forgot what shared governance meant. Mash Mash would be so mad at me
  2. Nearly $5 million will go to train new Arizona nurses

    "Banner will identify the people within its organization it thinks will make good candidates for a Bachelor of Science degree in nursing. Those participants will be educated at the Arizona State University College of Nursing. To "fill the void" left ...

  4. Definitely try to get anything in the hospital. I know MANY of my classmates that worked as PCT, CNA and even food service workers while in nursing school. I believe all of them are working as RN's. Had I known this, I would have definitely worked in...
  5. Possible job...should I take it?

    Yes, take it! I have been looking for 3 months. As a new grad BSN no one wants to hire us. Take anything to get that first year under your belt. You are so incredibly lucky if you find a job within the first month of being hired. I've read on this fo...
  6. New Grad RN, can I work as a PCT

    Yes, I have looked into those jobs as well, they all have 1-2 years experience required. And reading in this forum LTC RNs have 60-80 patients, I do not want that as a new grad.
  7. New Grad RN, can I work as a PCT

    I remember in my management class or somewhere, learning that we can't practice below our scope of practice, is this accurate? Can I not get a job to get my foot in the door during this hiring freeze? I'm just so deperate for a job I have run out of ...
  8. Is OR nursing a good start for a new grad?

    My friend just got hired at a Banner facility, new grad yes it said, and they have a pretty extensive training program. I would do it if you have an "in" because once you get a year experience then all the other doors can open up for you.
  9. Yuma Regional Medical Center

    Hi, do you know if they are hiring new grads? Also do they offer housing for the employees? Thanks, and congrats!
  10. Abrazo's new grad RN development academy

    I would disagree. Or maybe because I'm very angry at the false hope I got from all the threads I've read about Abrazo's new grad program. I have a RN-BSN, I'm ACLS certified and I got rejected. I didn't even get a letter/email I had to keep checking ...
  11. Plus size nurse concerned about O.R. scrubs

    I would probably email and bring the scrubs with me. Don't be embarrassed. It's your body, it is what it is. You wouldn't be embarrassed if you needed special accommodation like a ramp if you were in a wheelchair right?
  12. NCLEX IPHONE APP

    Android users did you find a good app that is not overly pricey? $10 I think is might max.
  13. nclex practice percentage?

    Is the NCLEX PN easier than the NCLEX RN? I know if I fail the RN one I can take the PN one right away. Are they different? I know RN's assess but do PN's have the ADPIE and all that stuff too?
  14. nclex practice percentage?

    Hi, sorry if this is already a thread (I looked though) I was wondering of the people who passed NCLEX, did you do practice exams to prepare? and what was your overall comprehensive percentage? I'm getting in the high 60's and I feel that I need arou...
  15. Chamberlain (PHX) spoke with an adviser today...

    Oro Valley is a long way from Phoenix. You should find a thread that talks about Tucson stuff or Pima Community College.
