   hilife_RN posted a topic in Government

   Good morning everyone, I am just curious if anyone has any insight on this topic. I was told that the MOTS-002 (5 weeks) and MOTS-003 (2 weeks) are being phased out for 2020? I registered for the 2 weeks course and was told that all medical personnel...

5. Nationwide RN licensing test

   hilife_RN posted a topic in International

   I found out that in Australia that there is no nationwide RN licensing test like the NCLEX in the United States. Is this true? The nurse I was talking to said, "all you need is your nursing degree, then you can start practicing" Out of curiosity, wh...

10. New in ICU

    hilife_RN replied to KosmoKramer's topic in Critical

    I agree with Bec7074. Hang in there. The learning curve is/will be high, especially that you were an aide first, then became an ICU nurse right away (based on your original post). It's normal to feel the ups and downs. Don't dwell/focus on the "downs...
