Thanks for posting this article; it was very helpful and informative. How do you get 8 weeks off from your other job to do camp nursing? I assume you have another job but could be wrong about that....

"Everyone I know >40 is hunkering down to work as much and as hard as possible to get themselves financially correct for now and any potential future *problems*." Exactly. Us newbies see the...

I can't seem to get any good information from my healthcare recruiter. He's a nice guy and professional but hasn't been in his position very long. Do you think it's wrong to contact a different...

Thanks Lunah :) . I guess I just remember all the young O1s, O2s, O3s when I was in and everyone retiring around 38-42 years of age. Do you have any certifications right now? Do they offer any sort...

When I was taking my nurse pre-reqs I was admitted to the hospital for a medical emergency over the weekend. Long story short my information was released to my employer by a nurse in the hospital,...

Lunah, what age were you when you came in? Do you see brand new 2LTs in their early 30s? Im curious because I'm prior enlisted, about to finish my BSN and have thought about coming back in. I'm just...

Thanks for the information Lobsterdmb. My goal is to apply to the ED or ICU when I graduate and then I will definitely take those courses as soon as I'm able to.

You mentioned above that you are 32 years old, which is the same age that I am. Nursing is my second career so I'm a little late to the game. I'm prior enlisted Army and have an IT background. I hope...

Congratulations on getting a commission in the AFR. Would you mind answering some questions for me? I am prior enlisted and am thinking about joining the AFR as a flight nurse. I spoke with a...

That's so awesome that you are interested in working in South Korea. I was stationed there when I was in the Army and fell in love with the country and its' people. You can always find a GS job...

Read only the first page and then typed my post above. Guess I should have read all of the comments, which would have answered my TWU question.

MNURS--are you at TWU? They have the policy where you have to wait five years but that's not a Texas rule, only TWU. You can get into a community college, get your ADN, and then do the RN-BSN bridge...

I'm working on finishing my nursing degree so I have seen this from a student's perspective and I'm already nervous about what I will encounter as an actual nurse. I'm not going to go into much...

There's a rumor going around that my school will not be having a pinning ceremony for us next year. We are a private University so they are trying to say the pinning ceremony is something state...

I agree with all of the previous posts as well. A few little other bullets I would add-- 1. I bought this software called NCLEX 4000. You can make customized tests in subjects you are weak in and it...

I'm noticing that you are still making excuses for your actions by blaming the nurses and others, etc. I noticed that you pointed out that you had children. I suppose that gives you a free pass to...

Your resume looks really good. The only thing I would suggest is possibly including the total amount of clincial hours you had at each site. Is "manikin" the correct way to spell that? I thought it...

Your resume is all jacked up. It did not copy paste correctly so I can't give a reliable opinion. Sorry.

Thanks for posting that link. I always hear stories about nurses losing their licenses and I'm always in fear.

A few other things: When you set up your Evolve account (everyone does this at orientation), on the main screen of Evolve will be a search bar. Search for "Ackley". It is a nursing diagnosis book...

Well, a few of us were actually wanting to come talk to your class when you come for orientation in a few weeks. The class before us did that and we'd like to keep that as somewhat of a tradition....

Congratulations guys. I'm in the class ahead of you. The program goes by really quick. It's challenging but if you have the motivation, drive, and good time management skills you can definitely do...
