   LC25 replied to redbullz9's topic in Psychiatric

   I am also in California. I often see postings for psych RN jobs encouraging new grads to apply. The main difference I've noticed is that hospitals (with a psych floor/unit) seem to want experience,...

2. Allegation of Neglect

   LC25 replied to jaortiz20's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

   So... you did measure, there was no medication missing, and you admitted to not measuring and overdosing. If you overdosed your patients, wouldn't there be medication missing? If you did measure...

3. Failed Accelerated BSN program

   LC25 replied to DreamGrl2020's topic in General Students

   I would definitely continue with the program. 2 years will fly by. Some people just need a slower pace to absorb the information (it's a lot!!). Either way you're going to turn 40, it's up to you...

4. resigned

   LC25 replied to hopern84's topic in General Nursing

7. New grad RN, can't land a job after nursing school

   LC25 replied to viviagbobu's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

   Like someone else mentioned, try post acute facilities, psych, corrections, hospice etc. Might not be what you saw yourself doing, but our first job rarely is. Those jobs will give you experience,...

8. I accepted the fact nursing isn't for me, what do I do?

   LC25 replied to 8Lovenursing8's topic in General Nursing

   I think feeling this way is more common than you think. Especially if you don't have a supportive working environment. During my first few months as an RN my supervisor told me they didn't think I...

   LC25 replied to INeedAdviceOn...'s topic in Aesthetics

   I worked in cosmetic/aesthetic nursing for about 3 years. The med spa I worked at provided on site training which some places will do. If experience is required it's usually for the injectable...

    I'm also looking into this program. Cost wise it looks like one of the better online ones. Any info/advise would be greatly appreciated. I'm also looking to apply for Spring '19
