2. Passed in Illinois, still not on IDFPR

   SydneyLynch replied to SydneyLynch's topic in NCLEX

   Update, I called today, July 21st. They are processing applications that they have received on June 12th. They wouldn't tell me about how long until they process July 1st, when I sent mine in. So it sounds like applications from 5.5 weeks ago are ju...

3. Passed in Illinois, still not on IDFPR

   SydneyLynch replied to SydneyLynch's topic in NCLEX

   This is ridiculous, the application says no more than 4 weeks! I have been applying to jobs, I do not get rejected right away if it's a new grad posting, but most places won't consider you if you don't have a number, which is now taking them 6-8 week...

4. Advice Needed: CNA Peers in Class

   SydneyLynch replied to jeaniekadinee's topic in CNA/MA

   If it isn't causing a problem in the classroom, just some mean looks, forget it an move on. You are going to experience plenty of this and need to learn when to fight, and when to not. Don't be passive aggressive, which it sounds like you confronted...

5. Passed in Illinois, still not on IDFPR

   SydneyLynch posted a topic in NCLEX

   I tested on June 26th, 2014 and sent in my application and check on July 1, 2014. I was looking at some of the names on the website, and it looks like some licenses are being processed from July 11, 2014. Does anyone know what is going on, or how be...

6. Offensive?

   SydneyLynch replied to SydneyLynch's topic in Home Health

   Thank you for all the responses! Like I said, I've been doing home health for a few years now and have definitely learned how to adapt to peoples needs and wants. I've learned to respect the person in their home, and not take things personally. I al...

7. Offensive?

   SydneyLynch replied to SydneyLynch's topic in Home Health

   I have no information on her, as we are only providing cares to the husband. I am not sure whether it would be appropriate for me to report to my company that I feel offended and uncomfortable.

8. Offensive?

   SydneyLynch posted a topic in Home Health

   I have worked as a CNA in home health for 2.5 years. I have recently completed my BSN and have passed the NCLEX, so I would say I'm a fairly competent aid. I recently had an experience that has confused me and made me question what is and is not acc...

9. Illinois Masonic 2014 RN Residency

   SydneyLynch replied to SydneyLynch's topic in Illinois

   I think they have had that up since before our interviews, so I don't think it applies directly to if they picked people or not. You can probably apply regardless. I was told maybe the first two weeks of May but for sure end of May, and that we would...

10. Illinois Masonic 2014 RN Residency

    SydneyLynch replied to SydneyLynch's topic in Illinois

    I'm from the area, and have asked around, but I don't know anyone who has applied. It's driving me crazy too! I mean, I know they're busy, but it's been over a month since they've concluded interviews. I'm expecting a rejection at this point too, I j...

11. Illinois Masonic 2014 RN Residency

    SydneyLynch replied to SydneyLynch's topic in Illinois

    I don't think so, I'm fairly certain that has been there for at least a month and they talked about that at the interviews.

    SydneyLynch replied to SydneyLynch's topic in Illinois

    Nothing yet. They said as late as end of may, but I don't know if others have heard anything.

    SydneyLynch replied to SydneyLynch's topic in Illinois

    You will probably find that information on their website. This thread is for discussion about the August cohort.

14. Illinois Masonic 2014 RN Residency

    SydneyLynch replied to SydneyLynch's topic in Illinois

    I am wondering what the process is like, such as when they start to contact people. If you get an interview and they want you, how long does that take? And if anyone has any information on the type of interview questions.

    Has anyone heard back about the 2014 August cohort Nurse residency program? Anyone who has done the program, what was the interview like, and the notification process for after interviewing?
