    Thank you! I figured they'd get a lot of applicants, but I'm just freaking because of my financial situation. Also I'm not already endorsed for Delaware yet so I think that holds me back from being...

    So upsetting! I had an interview last week at HCR Manor Care in Wallingford. Not sure where you're from but there are more positions open. The HR guy is a real nice guy and made the interview much...

    Rejection email came today. Guess my 13 years in healthcare didn't sit well with them. Sorry, I'm bitter!

    As a new nurse, with 13 years in healthcare as a Medical Assistant, can someone please tell me what would possess ANY nurse to not give meds? The obvious question is why would you want to jeopardize...

  9. Where to start a carrer change to nursing-Pittsburgh
    Just a word of advice as far as diploma/associates vs BSN. It is EXTREMELY difficult for new nursing grads to find that first job. I have a BSN and I'm 4 months out of school with no call backs...

  13. Will nurse practitioner employers care if you went to a community college?
    If you want to be an NP, that requires a Masters. But to start out doing your pre-reqs at a community college is common, since they are cheaper per credit than any university. I would get the pre...

    I've tried calling them before about something else and if you don't already work there, it's impossible to get a person. You just get prompted to different options and then it hangs up :/

    I'm just having a really hard time with the fact that you are getting a DUI...but I think it's 7 years and it's off your record. Unless you get it expunged. I am so sorry this happened to you :(
