1. How to get away from bedside nursing

   beeenieweeenie, RN posted a topic in Career Support

   I am so completely burned out by bedside nursing. I've been doing it for 5 years now and I am ready to move on to something else. Problem is, every time I apply for a non bedside nursing job, I get turned down because all I have is bedside experien...

5. nursing students and behavioral health units

   beeenieweeenie, RN replied to inthesky's topic in Psychiatric

   It has been my experience that most nursing instructors hate psych and don't encourage students to go into psych nursing, and they really didn't put a lot of thought into our psych rotation at all. As far as not students not interacting with the nurs...

   beeenieweeenie, RN replied to beeenieweeenie, RN's topic in Online Learning

   I'm sorry, I should have worded my original question differently. If I get my license in NC which is a compact state that accepts EC grads, is it possible to do travel nursing or something in Virginia, which is a compact state that does not accept EC...

7. EC grads and compact states

   beeenieweeenie, RN posted a topic in Online Learning

   I am seriously considering enrollment in Excelsior and have sent off all of my transcripts, with my application and fee. I didn't realize that some states do not allow Excelsior grads to be licensed either by examination or endorsement. That doesn't ...

   beeenieweeenie, RN replied to polishgurlrn2b's topic in Louisiana

   Well, as far as I know, the ADN program at Northwestern is on probation due to a low NCLEX pass rate. If you're just going for an ADN, I'd go to Panola.

12. Why are nursing instructors so intimidating?

    beeenieweeenie, RN replied to beeenieweeenie, RN's topic in LPN/LVN Students

    I am an adult and have worked in the real world long enough to know what difficult people are like. I've been on the receiving end of a MD's rant several times when I had to call them in the middle of the night while working for the answering servic...

    I took my NCLEX PN yesterday. I prepped with ATI books and Saunders, yet I still felt unprepared for the exam. I got shut off at 85, so I reckon I did really good or really bad. I'm in Louisiana, we don't have quick results here, so I must wait.
