  1. Emergency Nurse Practitioner

    Does anyone know how one becomes an ENP? I always thought it would be a straight program like FNP (ie get masters and take another NCLEX)... But I was researching and I'm gathering that you just first work as an FNP in acute care adult or some other ...
  2. Obs Unit?

    Thanks everyone!!! I worked in a rural hospital on an adult and peds med-surg and tele unit where we actually did obs as well. It was mainly a med-surg unit so I don't really know what it would be like to have 20 straight obs patients.
  3. Obs Unit?

  4. Obs Unit?

    Ello fellow Nurses!!! I recently just got a job at a big hospital on an obs unit. I was told by the director that it is an extension of the ED and ICU... But that still leaves much info to be desired. We have obs on our med-surg unit sometimes but it...
  5. *UNEMPLOYED NURSES*

    You are absolutely right. When the State came in it was nuts. I was supposed to be off my "orientation" (which isn't even adequate new grad training, more like a crash course..) they put me back on it so that the State wouldn't even talk to me becaus...
  6. Nurse Practitioners

    I figured it was fairly new since there aren't many programs out here in California for it. I was just confused if they went the FNP route and then branch off... Hopefully by the time I am seriously applying to grad schools there will be more supply ...
  7. Nurse Practitioners

    Is there a real demand for NP's? What about ENP's? I'm looking to go grad school in a year or two and I wanted to know which way to direct my nursing career. How does one even become an ENP? I know the programs must be limited.
  8. *UNEMPLOYED NURSES*

    There were 4 new grads when I started. In a matter of two months half of them found better jobs and left. I wish I could be so lucky. They're literally pinching every penny over here. That's why I was finally able to get "full-time" status with half ...
  9. *UNEMPLOYED NURSES*

    So update: I finally got a job in a small town in the sticks of California. It's probably considered rural nursing. The only problem is the way the hospital is run. I started off "per diem" but worked full-time hours so they wouldn't have to give me ...
  10. No luck with RN job search!!!

    I have been looking for a year and a half. Still no such luck. I'm considering joining the military and moving out of state... But even that looks bleak at the moment... I'm desperate to start my life, get married, do grad school and get settled down...
  11. New Grad States & Relocating

    Any new grad/inexperienced nurse-friendly states out there? Looking to relocate just to get a job. Cali is dried up for new grads.
  12. How do I find jobs in a state I do not live in?

    I graduated in 2010 and obtained my license 2011. I was burnt out from full time BSN course plus work study plus full time job. So I took a break. Anyway, it is now 2013 and I've had my license for a little over a year and a half and have had to rene...
  13. New RN, graduated 2 years ago.

  14. Unorthodox Interview. Help!!!

    Thank you! Ya it did. I almost cried in front of my last patient. And I cried on the way home... I had my best friend mock interview me the night before so I was prepared already... But disappointment yet again...
  15. Fountain Valley- New Grad (Versant)

    I just want A job. And they are one of the few that actually offers a Versant program. Other than those in LA.
