  1. Hello! Congratulations on your acceptance! I am an El Centro-North Lake grad May 2009. It is a tough program to get into and to stay in. I did get a job a month before graduation. I still work in the same place and love it. As for the program, I'm ...
  2. Cheap online MSN / FNP programs

    timwesme: Frontier University? it's not cheap...but it might be an option. they also have an ADN-MSN-DNP for nurse practitioners that runs around 50K
  3. Thank you, thank you ,certification done!

    Congratulations!! That is awesome :)
  4. Bad Job Market? Be a NURSE! (Insert eye roll here)

    I know we are still hurting for nurses at the hospital where I work. We have residencies for critical care that last 18 weeks. 4.5 years ago, I was one of ten in the ER residency. Now, the residency has 40 new grads/new ER nurses! It's crazy to t...
  5. New Grad and Patient's Who Hit Close to Home

    I second melizerd's comments: totally normal. I've cried at work for the same reasons and a couple times for personal reasons. Excusing yourself and letting the feelings flow was a good thing to do. Cases that are difficult will continue to come yo...
  6. Looking the proverbial horse in the mouth

    I take trileptal and love it. Only downside is I feel tired. I've got co workers who take lamictal and it works for them, too.
  7. Aren't You just Incredibly Proud?

    Yes, I'm proud of myself, my accomplishments, and my profession. Keep in mind there are bad apples in every bushel, and they like nothing more than to sour the rest. Keep your head up and give it your best! You'll be glad you did.
  8. ER trauma 1 per diem vs. ER trauma 2 full time.

    If you have a family, go for the job with benefits. If not, take the Level 1 job and get your own insurance.
  9. Does it really matter?

    I think online nursing programs are great for people who need the flexibility. You will still get the hands-on training and skills during clinical. Honestly, from what I remember during nursing school (ADN), it's totally doable in an online classroo...
  10. Nursing certification as elective credit??

    What is ANCC?
  11. I went to an NP a few years ago. Awesome experience. I felt she spent way more time with me than any regular "doctor"has before. In my opinion, go all the way. She had her own practice, for which I paid like $300 for one visit (worth it, to me), and ...
  12. Worried I shouldn't have disclosed bipolar

    Hi. I wanted to lend some support. I, too, have Bipolar and am very open about about it. You are so right! All bipolar people are not the same! The stereotypical BP person wears blue eye shadow, talks a mile a minute and is basically out of control. ...
  13. I made the wrong choice...

    You may have to consider moving to where the jobs are available. Just like any field, not everyone can get their dream job the first time. I feel for you.
  14. Triage complaints- the good, the bad, and the shocking.

    This old lady came in with her daughter once and when I asked what brought her to the ER, she said,"It all started in 1993 when I performed oral sex on this man...." I stopped typing, started smiling like an IDIOT and had to apologize. The lady was ...
  15. Not sure where to start

    there are so many choices for you. my main comment that I hope you hear is go for your BSN now. I earned my ADN 4 years ago and am just now getting back to school to bridge. If you are in a situation that requires you graduate and make money fast,...
