You will only see a GAPP posting when there is a program opening. They do 3 or 4 classes a year and open the applications for a brief time, several months before each class starts. There is not one...

Previous GAPPer here. It's hard to get in because they have literally HUNDREDS of applicants (500 maybe) so sometimes you have great credentials but just the sheer volume of applicants means some...

What does your comment mean, ktwlpn? Weird. Well, to the op, sorry, I'm not in Denver now but I grew up there, got my first degree from UC Denver, and am looking to move back in a few months. Denver...

I'm leaving AZ as well. Definately gonna be a sticker shock but we are finding more homes that suit our needs at a better price than what we can get here in the valley. We desperately need to...

He who finds it, cleans it! That's the rule.

Just culture will only work if we support its virtues. I don't think you should have been fired because it sounds like you followed up with appropriate actions. Why so harsh, other posters? Have you...

We need more information. Did the patients actually NOT have an IV and you charted a whole shift that they did? Or did they have one that was bad/infected/infiltrated, and you didn't assess and...

Laurenann...like I said; as long as you have a heartbeat! Seriously, nurses are not like fighter pilots. We don't have to be in tip top shape, just capable of completing daily living activities and...
