Hello.. I work @ NV.

-Yeah the ratios can suck, but better then the 8-10 pts I saw my preceptor @ Sunrise get.

At NV I average 6 pt.

-Yes, the NM is tough, but fair. A lot of pp don't care for here b/c she isn't afraid to tell it like it is. The RN's that came from NV... bet they were from T2 M/S.. NM *issed off several I heard.

-Yes the work is hard. The pt load is heavy (it is everywhere) but I have had the BEST clinical experience that I could have ever asked for @ NV!

- I did my clinicals @ Sunrise (great preceptor & great experience) for my last semester & they never called me 1x for an interview & I applied for at least 4-6 diff positions! Yet, I recall 1 day there was only 1 RN covering for a whole floor (I believe) he said he had 20pts needing IVP's?? SCARY! If they are not willing to hire & train new RNs how will we become experienced??

-Good Luck!... geeze.. Dee is it already getting close to 4th semester??? Glad to see you are still around! PM me & perhaps we can talk & u can decide for yourself (I promise to be unbias; HONEST! :icon_rollI keep telling a close LPN friend to apply @ Sunrise tee heee)

Toddles,
