Agreed!

A good friend of mine works in the PICU. What an amazing place to start!

Can't wait to meet you! I am in Tele/PCU. I am SO excited!

You ROCK. Thank you! I plan on taking all of your advice.

Hi all! I am a new nurse with about a month of home health experience. Most of my clients have vents, trachs, gtubes, electrolyte imbalances, and other complicated medical problems that make my...

Weird. I thought this was only for hiring MANAGERS, not recruiters. I was told by a couple employees to contact the hiring recruiters. Have you seen the thread for Parkland SICU September 2012?...

I succeeded! :) Fortunately, I am at a facility that embraces nurses of all education.

It's been over two years since I wrote this! I am happy to report that I survived Nursing School, passed my boards and now work as a R.N. I am not working at my "first choice" facility, but I love...

I have to agree Kaventino, to a degree. Programs like Hurst, which offer "live" reviews can get to the source and identify a testing issue. They are the experts. NCLEX is a $200 test and it adds...

omotzury- have you tried calling Parkland? Also, have you ever attended an Open House? I went in the Spring. I HIGHLY recommend you attend one. I believe they are usually held in the spring.

Hello my fellow Eager-Ladies-in-Waiting! :) I applied in early July and I have received the "your application is under review" e-mail about 8 times. In fact, I have one sitting in my inbox sent...

I am aware of this "problem" many of us ADN'ers are encountering. I am conscience of it, but not intimidated. I plan on working my tail off and proving to my co-workers and superiors that not having...

Hello & Welcome! I don't post often, but I think I can offer some advice. If you are failing the NCLEX and being stopped at 75 questions, this tells me there is a fundamental issue with your test...

BubbasMom: try Baylor dental school for free or reduced services!

At the hospital I am currently doing rotations at, I see surgeries (many of them MAJOR) being done frequently on cash-pay (meaning uninsured) clients. In fact, most of the pts I care for are...

Congrats! My name is Natalie and I am the 2nd VP of CNSA (Collin Nursing Student Association) and I will be at your orientation. I will be in my 3rd semester in the Fall. The experience goes quickly....

Are they even going to deposit our payments by the end of October? I am relying on this money :(

Hey 8674, I didn't prepare for the PSB exam. You really can't prepare for it. It's very basic math, spatial reasoning, spelling, reading, etc. The only kicker is that it is timed. Be weary. I...

Congrats!!! I will be in my 2nd semester when you guys come through; I can't wait to meet ya. If you need to know somethiing about the program, the ins and outs, don't hesitate to ask. However,...

Hi "question" If you do have 15 points, you have a very strong chance. (by this, I mean around 95% if you are considered in-county and have all your vaccines/paperwork completed.) There have been...

CTA- I have been applying for a Unit Aide, General Clerk, Patient Transporter, Health Unit Coordinator. They are all considered entry-level, at least at the hospital I am applying to. PCA-...

I have been applying, like mad, to any hospital I can get ahold of. I call the potential employer, asking if my resume and credentials have been reviewed, but I am rejected or I never hear back. I...

Hi Gregory! I am going to be up there on Friday, bright and early! :) I will have to swing by and meet you in person. Thanks for all your information, it has been very helpful!

I received my acceptance letter on Saturday :) I had 15 out of 16 points, live in Collin County, maxed my PSB. The three most critical things when applying to Collin. I look forward to being...
