Greetings from new member & soon to graduate BScN Student!!

Published

Hi! I am a 31 year old married female about to graduate from college with a BS in Nursing!! I am thrilled that the time spent in school has gone by so fast. I have learned an amazing amount of stuff and still feel as though I know absolutly nothing. Today I was offered a position in the MICU at a very large, academic/research facility/ hospital. Of course I took the job. I wonder if there is anyone out there who has done this sort of route (non traditional student with family, takes job in MICU) if so, how long did it take for you to feel comfortable in your role as a nurse?? My employer offers a wonderful orientation that will last approx 4-5 months long. Anyone care to share? I begin after graduation of course!!:balloons:

Congratulations on your upcoming graduation and job! You rock! I look forward to my graduation date (June 2007).

You will do wonderfully; breathe deeply and it will all come together while you are in orientation. I'm a 45 year old female, married with 1 son age 12 and two step daughters (24 yo RN and 20 yo college student).

Good luck with N-CLEX -- you will pass!!

Beth
