  1. Moving to WA!

    Best to call and ask them I guess, they may very well accept the AIDS training you completed in your BSN program. In my program we had an entire lecture on AIDS (which I thought was pretty thorough) but I took the course anyways to save any hassle. I...
  2. Moving to WA!

    My experience was very slow and frustrating unfortunately:uhoh3: Mostly because of CGFNS. I moved here for my family and dont intend on leaving so i got my Green card. Once I got that I applied for CGFNS and sent them my transcripts/license as well a...
  3. Moving to WA!

    are you a dual citizen or are you coming here on a work visa/green card? I got a green card and came here which took over a year, then tack on another 5 months to get a CGFNS report.. so hopefully it doesn't take you that long! St Joseph's is a reall...

    [email protected] thank you very much:)
  5. NCLEX and Chemistry/Physics?

    What book are you using to study? I am in the same boat as you, moved from BC to WA and waiting to take the NCLEX. I have been using the Saunders comprehensive review & Kaplan books as well as going through a bunch of my old notes. I haven't run ...
  6. how long to get a CES report (CGFNS)

    my status changed again from ready for final review to "in QA review." How many reviews is there?!! I could not find any information about QA review on their website. Is it some sort of quality assurance? That's all I could think it would be.. Oh wel...
  7. how long to get a CES report (CGFNS)

    Thank you guys for your help. They just changed my status on the website from "ready for review" to "ready for final review." Does anyone know how long the final review takes? Thanks again:)
  8. Problem with CES - Advice anyone?

    Hey don't stress! It looks to me like the e-mail was a mistake. CGFNS seems to be a bit off base with their updates. They sent me an e-mail telling me they had received my transcript and then the next day another e-mail saying my account was currentl...
  9. how long to get a CES report (CGFNS)

    Thanks for your reply Silverdragon. I'm just wondering where you got the 4 months from. I guess it shouldn't surprise me. First 4-5 weeks, then 8-10. 4 months would pretty well double it for the third time. I just want to get back to work:mad:
  10. first off, my apologies if this is in the wrong place. I wasn't sure where to put it. I was wondering if anyone here had recent experience with getting a CES report from CGFNS and how long it took to have that done. I applied for it and paid the fee ...
  11. CRNE October 2010

    I used the Mosby's book to study and found it really helpful. Be careful when you transfer your answers over to the scantron sheet, especially if you skip over a question. One girl that wrote with us made that mistake early on (skipped #5 but put th...
  12. when to register with Pearson vue

    I moved to Washington state from Canada & applied to the state for my license. since i'm coming from a foreign country I need to have my transcripts evaluated which I expect will be completed within the next several weeks. I am wondering when I n...
  13. younger generation of nurses and blackberries?

    oh i know death notifications are in person. but the wives here have a key caller system, they will call to let you know if something happened in the unit (injury/death of someone not your spouse). but assuming he was injured, he would call me direct...

  15. Do Not Rehire?

    to maybe answer your question about the 8 positions open... I work in an ER, staffing was always a bit of an issue but not nearly so bad as it is now. management decided it would be a good idea to hire new grad RNs and train them for the ER using a c...
