hi everyone! i'm holli. i took boards on june 13th and passed with 75 questions. i am starting work on july 18th at the only hospital i ever wanted to work for. it is a great pediatric facility! i will be on the (post-op) surgical floor, and we also have all of the endocrine kids. also, they just added an epilepsy monitoring unit, for overnight monitoring and for the brain mapping they are doing. i expressed an interest in that, so they will cross-train me in that unit as well. i can't wait to get started!

so, tell me about you...

hello, i took my nclex on june 25th, and i am starting my work orientation tomorrow. i am a nervous wreck and don't no if i'll be adequate for the profession, esp what my co-workers will think of me. i'll be working at the tele unit, and i have worked there for two semesters of nursing school, still i am soooooooooo panicky. i am really hoping, i won't let my instructors and managers down. i just feel like crying because i feel like there's so much i still don't know :cry:.

just think of what needs to be done first for a pt and you will be fine!

I'm Katie, just graduated from a BSN program in MA, took my boards on 7/8 and found out I passed on 7/10 :nurse:

As I live in the Boston area, jobs are incredibly tight right now...I have a job prospect or two, but nothing in writing yet. So, just playing the waiting game, relaxing & letting the good news sink in!

Hi Everyone, I'm Kim from Northeast PA and I will be finally starting my LPN course in 9/09 - long way off but I can finally, at 46, go to school for a career I've wanted for so long. I did have to wait for the children to be old enough to get to school on their own while leaving early for the days I will be doing clinical. I can't wait!!!
