1. Anybody here ever found a GF or a future wife as a "murse" at work?

   Ecstatic2014 replied to PlentyOfMurses's topic in Male Students

   This is a good topic that the OP posted about. I would highly advise against dating any co-worker, whether it's a nurse aide, an LPN, RN or even a physician, at the facility you work at. I don't know about your guys' facilities that you work at. But ...

2. So how does it feel like to be a male nurse

   Ecstatic2014 replied to panjeremy's topic in Male Students

   @ Panjeremy, How's it feel like to be a male nurse, or moreso, a male nurse applicant? Like cr@p! I have posted a thread about anti-male discrimination in the hiring process for RN jobs. Let me tell you brother, that discrimination amongst hospital H...

   Ecstatic2014 posted a topic in Male Students

   Hey guys, I highly encourage you to try hard and strive for excellence during your nursing school career. But I just came here to vent, because I have graduated from a BSN nursing program last year, May 2014. Come to find out that several of my FEMAL...

4. Working as a nurse aid, before getting into a new-graduate program

   Ecstatic2014 posted a topic in Job Hunt

   I have graduated from a BSN nursing program last year around May. Here in my area, it is very very difficult to find an RN job, moreso in my case, in the acute-care hospital settings. Hospitals in my area only hire RN's who have at least one-year o...

6. New Graduate Programs on Oahu

   Ecstatic2014 replied to Tamurasy's topic in Hawaii

   Is this true that all hospital facilities on Oahu have new graduate programs? The last time I looked into Kaiser in Moanalua, Wahiawa General, they don't have new grad programs. The only facilities on Oahu that have new graduate RN programs, at least...

7. New Grad RN Jobs?

   Ecstatic2014 replied to akayne88's topic in Hawaii

   I am curious as to which hospital facilities on Oahu, have new graduate RN programs....besides QMC and some of the Hawaii Pacific Health subsidiaries. I doubt Kaiser - Moanalua has any new graduate programs. Neither does Castle or Wahiawa General. Ho...

8. Medical Student to Nursing Student

   Ecstatic2014 replied to thatguy777's topic in General Students

   @ Thatguy777 Hey man, I don't know why others here haven't suggested another nursing route. But since you already have a bachelor's degree in biology, and you have been through what, one or two years of medical school, why not apply for a master's en...

9. Queen's Job Fair

   Ecstatic2014 replied to bellatrixrn's topic in Hawaii

   @ bellatrixrn. Wait, a sec. So you've graduated from nursing school with a BSN, and have been working as a hospital CNA for around two years! Wow! I give you credit for doing that kind of work for that duration - especially if you have your RN licens...

11. Lawsuit over grade changes?

    Ecstatic2014 replied to Jackson12's topic in General Students

    @Jackson12, Usually, the judiciary court system has no say, whatsoever, with the grading system of a school. Once you get a letter grade for a course from your instructor, it is only up to the university's grievance committee to hear your case and li...

    I am curious if there are any of you who recently graduated from nursing school, and is working FULLTIME job right now, while studying for the NCLEX-RN?? I just recently started a full-time CNA job (since I have yet to take NCLEX) for a long-term ass...

13. Queen's Job Fair

    Ecstatic2014 replied to bellatrixrn's topic in Hawaii

    I don't think the QMC job fair will include new grad program stuff. New RN grad programs, at least the ones here in Hawaii, are only available to current employees of the facility. The last time I went to the QMC job fair, which was held at Manoa Ele...

    I am curious if most of you applicants for the Swedish residency program have already graduated from nursing school either in May/June 2013 or December 2013, and already have your RN license? Sounds like most of the applicants who have received inter...
