  1. Just wanted to update in case it helps anyone in the future. Received an offer from a well respected Magnet hospital and started last week. Sell yourself and your experience and don't feel pressured to spend money on a refresher course unless you fee...
  2. I specifically remember feeling things "click into place" 9 months into working as a new grad telemetry nurse. I still obviously had a lot to learn & never lost sight of that, but that time period was when I first felt truly comfortable and no lo...
  3. Have I ever had doubts about working in healthcare? Basically every single day. I got more respect as a waitress serving people buffalo wings than I do as an RN (i.e. waitress in scrubs) serving buffalo wings to hypertensive, diabetic patients becaus...
  4. Does anyone have advice for returning to the hospital setting after a 4 year break to focus on raising family/finish Master's degree? I've been getting pushback that my experience isn't 'recent' enough (5 years of prior acute care hospital experience...
  5. News Article on Nursing Shortage in Florida

    So tired of these annoying clickbait articles about "nursing shortages." It makes me wonder what type of agenda they are trying to push when they publish these articles that are clearly not true?

    Happy Holidays to everyone! Hope everyone had a great New Years, and best of luck to everyone for a successful and rewarding start to the school year and our careers :)
  7. Nyu accel prog spring 2010

    Just got my acceptance letter!!! So stoked about it! But ... as much as I'd love to attend, I don't know if it's just absolutely foolish to pay this much for my nursing degree! I would have to pay for EVERYTHING with private loans, ayyy. How do y...

    MDCupcake- I'm turning my acceptance letter in for Accelerated this afternoon ... weirrrd that in a little over a year I'll be a legitimate nurse!! I know the program will be intense, but I know I can handle it ... I took 17 credit hours this summer...
  9. MDC Accelerated RN program, Spring 2010

    MDCupcake- I take it you're decided 100% to go Generic?? I'm still torn ... I'd kill for the Baptist Scholarship, not even for the tuition money, because I figure it'd be a wash since that money I'd save on tuition would go towards living expenses, ...
  10. MDC Accelerated RN program, Spring 2010

    MDCupcake - I'm really torn between Generic & Accelerated, too ... I can't decide if my 2 friends that are in the AO now are just being overly dramatic, or if it really is that intense/unbearable. I'm going to call to make an appt. to speak with...
  11. MDC Accelerated RN program, Spring 2010

    Yay, I got acceptance letters for both Generic & Accelerated today :) I was so pumped when I saw the big manilla envelopes in the mail today!
  12. I just got acceptance letters for both Generic & Accelerated I'm not sure which one I'm going to do, so that'll be an open spot for somebody ... good luck all!
  13. Congrats Navita!!! That is awesome ... and good to know the letters have at least gone out, so at least the waiting-anxiety will be over ...
  14. I applied to Barry, but their Accelerated program that starts in January is already full, and I am NOT waiting around a year to go there (and take out a fortune in loans). I applied to a bunch of schools out of state.... I've been accepted to Drexel...
  15. I hate this waiting game!!! I applied for both Accelerated & Generic, and got the Scholarship letter. This really sucks waiting though! I've already been accepted to a nursing program (accelerated BSN), but it's at a private school so super exp...
