1. New Grad wanting a Specialty Switch

   RN123abc123 replied to RN123abc123's topic in General Nursing

   To clarify: Prior to this I had been a LPN for 6 years on a Acute Rehab unit where I received almost the same patient population that I have in Med Surg. The only difference is I can handle IV's in the hospital. Thank you all for the feedback!

2. New Grad wanting a Specialty Switch

   RN123abc123 posted a topic in General Nursing

   I started my job as a new grad RN on a Med Surg/Telemetry floor in July. I have been off orientation for a few weeks now and have come to the realization that Med Surg isn't my thing. I have always wanted to be an ER nurse and honestly Med Surg is to...

   RN123abc123 replied to mdenton's topic in NCLEX

   Hi! So I had a similar issue with the PA SBON. I graduated on May 17th, my school sent our transcripts May 25th and I did not receive my ATT until the middle of June, tested June 25th and passed. I had contacted the SBON twice and after my second tim...

   RN123abc123 replied to RN123abc123's topic in NCLEX

   I finally contacted the SBON after waiting three weeks. After I got off of the phone with them I literally got my ATT the next day. My friend was waiting a month, drove down to the SBON office and got her ATT that afternoon. It's a pain having to wai...

6. Impatient waiting for NCLEX Results

   RN123abc123 replied to RN123abc123's topic in NCLEX

   I believe I read somewhere that if you exam results are on hold it could be because your palm scan was having difficulties. I've also read NUMEROUS articles about people who got the "bad" pop up and still passed the NCLEX! The PV trick isn't always a...

7. CNA, Need Advice :(

   RN123abc123 replied to mo1212's topic in General Students

   Here is my experience when I worked as a CNA: I am a COMPLETE introvert (like the person who hangs out with the dog at parties haha). I obtained my CNA when I was 16 from a LTC facility one summer break. I was this 5'4, 90lb quiet girl who pretty mu...

8. Impatient waiting for NCLEX Results

   RN123abc123 posted a topic in NCLEX

   Hi everyone! I figured I would write a post while I impatiently wait the next 24 hours to get my quick results :) I took my NCLEX Thursday at 1pm. My scheduled time was 2pm but the lovely folks at PV took me back as soon as I got there. I had 75 q...

9. No PA ATT yet (June 2018)

   RN123abc123 replied to RN123abc123's topic in NCLEX

   I received my ATT the day after I called them. I was on the phone for 2.5 hours waiting to talk to someone and then received it the next day. Most students in my class still haven't received theirs yet. My friend called and they said that they are be...

10. NCLEX Nerves-Advice appreciated

    RN123abc123 replied to RN123abc123's topic in NCLEX

    Thanks for the advice! My nerves always get the best of me so I'm trying to relax and have that positive attitude. I think deep down I'm a little scared to take my RN boards because I failed my PN boards the first time (to be fair I was out of school...

11. NCLEX Nerves-Advice appreciated

    Hi everyone! Thank you for taking the time to read my post :) I graduated nursing school in the middle of May and have completed Virtual ATI. Our school drilled ATI down our throats so I was using that as my primary study tool. I received my "Green...

    Hello- I graduated on May 17th 2018 from nursing school *yay*. Our school submitted our information to the PA SBON on May 25th 2018 and we have yet to receive our ATT. I had already submitted my application to Pearson Vue and the SBON in March of th...
