I have finally had an interview!!!!! I felt like it went very well, even though I was really nervous. I hope it's not like when you feel really good about an exam, and it turns out to be the worst...

That makes sense! Good luck in your job search......hopefully we will both find something soon.

Thank you! I would have never even known about Brookwood if you hadn't told me. I applied for positions online, and I have left a message for the nurse recruiter to call me back. I didn't see any...

I am a brand new RN...and so proud to put those initials behind my name. :) I am 29 and the mother of 3 beautiful little girls (10yrs, 5yrs, and 2yrs old) who are just as proud of my accomplishment...

I am willing to drive to Birmingham! I have actually applied at UAB and St Vincent's, but haven't heard a thing. I enjoyed my psych rotations in nursing school, so psychiatric nursing would surely be...

I'm starting to think they lied to us about the nursing shortage. Have you ever met that nurse who really should not be working with people....EVER! So why can't I find a job, why can't I have her...

I totally feel your pain! My husband was relocated to Huntsville, AL this past July, and I was left behind in South GA with our 3 daughters to finish my last semester of Nursing School. I have...

I PASSED the NCLEX-RN!!!! :heartbeat:D:p:yeah::redpinkhe:lol2: The pearson trick worked to ease my mind, and it was accurate.

:uhoh3:I'm in Alabama. They do not participate in Quick results, but they post test results to their website with your confirmation number IF you registered to take the test online with the Alabama...

Oh, gosh...I hope you're right...according to the trick, I passed. I won't know for sure until Friday morning when the BON posts the results. Until then, I will stare at my computer screen and pray...

OMG!! I thought I was going to throw up!!! I took the NCLEX this morning at 0800, and it was by far the hardest test I have ever taken. The computer turned off a 75 questions, and I wasn't...

I am currently working on the CD-rom from NCLEX - RN exam cram, and the answers and rationales are consistant with what I have been taught throughout nursing school. I have several friends who used...

I agree with gninab. The patient was NOT fully assessed. We all know what assuming things will get you in nursing.....either a dead patient or a lawsuit. So, my personal view is that this guy's...

It may also have something to do with knowing that you need to flush the line before you push a med, make sure you know the time over which to push the med (i.e. nexium is over 3 minutes), and when...

I am also a mother of 3, and it actually takes about 3 yrs to complete an ADN program. They require completion of a certian number of core classes before they will allow you to begin the actual...

Are you planning on going into nursing only for the above stated reasons? You really need to evaluate your career path if money, hours, and absence of gorry things is your motivation. I don't want...

I agree 100%! I just want to be the best nurse I can be. If a union could make me a better and more effective nurse...then that would be the way I would have to go. I just don't understand why...

I agree that it is sometimes difficult to rely on networking, but networking could easily involve a letter of reference from a clinical instructor or a past supervisor. If a hiring nurse manager...

I guess it's mainly the idea of being forced to go on strike. I don't see how that could ever be feasible and allow a nurse to keep her license. Wouldn't you have to abandon your patients if you go...

I'm about to be a Registered Nurse, and I plan to go to work in Alabama. I did a little research on unions, and this is what I found. "Unions were incredibly useful back when Jimmy Hoffa started...

I have always thought that someday I would become a nurse. My mother is a nurse, my grandmother is a nurse, my aunt is a nurse, and my cousin is a nurse. So, you see, it’s in my blood. In 2002 I...

I don't think they try to "weed" people out, so to speak. I think it's more the fact that it takes strong people to be good nurses. The instructors are kittens compared to some of the patients or...

I'm relocating from Leesburg, GA (Albany, GA is the closest large city).

This is really sad to say, but I made more money working at a department store make up counter. Nursing is hard work ....mentally, physically, and emotionally. Would it really be fair for them to...
