   It is about $46/hr based on 52 weeks/yr at 40 hrs per week. It is still relevant to where you work for sure. I agree with you though, having some experience and getting your foot in the door is better than nothing. Not everyone can pick up and mov...

9. What else can be done about a nurse sleeping on duty??

   cwgirl197 replied to Kastiara's topic in General Nursing

    Write her up. Keep writing her up. Go to HR about it. There had to be a paper trail in order for anything to be done.

11. Working while schooling

    cwgirl197 replied to JenFutureRN14's topic in Texas (UTA)

12. RN to BSN Pre-reqs

    cwgirl197 replied to Eltk1219's topic in Texas (UTA)

    The literature course wasn’t bad at UTA. I think I had to read two books maybe. It wasn’t bad at all. It will be cheaper through a community college, but the course wasn’t bad through UTA.

    Capstone sucked actually because you don't have direction. I made a 100 in it though. It isn't hard, but they give you absolutely NO direction so you are 100% on your own!! It is frustrating, but you will be fine!
