Hi Melody48, I have a few questions for you. I'm getting my MSN from WGU and hopefully will be finished January 2017. I would like to just get my post-masters FNP from SU. o So, 3 courses from your MSN program transferred over to SU? Do you only h...

I would try WGU (western governor's university). I got my BSN in less than 6 months. Although, not so easy, it is challenging, it requires a lot of research and writing. Overall great experience at a fraction of what UOP offers.

I was just sent a survey from the NCSBN (National Council of state boards of nursing) asking the duties that I normally perfom in my job setting. They specifically list Emergency nursing together with All ICU nursing (Adult/neonatal/pediatric) as pa...

Well, I had to throw my two cents in here...... I had been going back and forth about accepting a position at two-different Orange county facilities (both offered salaries of around $27.50-$28.00/hr full-time for their new grad program). I finally de...

Hello there, Just wanted to know if there is anyone out there currently working for or who has worked at Long Beach memorial.....I went and had a tour of the ED last week and met with one of the managers who said they had no positions initially and a...

Hello all, I am currently looking into a part time position as a RN in a Medical-Spa. They need an RN to perform some procedures like photo-facials, microdermabrasion, skin tightening, cellulite reduction, laser hair removal etc. They tell me they...

Hello there, Just to add my 2 cents: I worked at Tenet for over 3 years as the administrative assistant for the DON and it was a great experience for me. Granted I had an administrative role, but I loved the managers since I also gave support to t...

hey tsheriff, I'm not sure about the pay increase - most hospitals do offer an increase after one year (changing your title from clinical nurse I to II and adding like $1) but since at memorial care they still consider you "non-experienced" until you...

Well, Thank you both sooooooo much!!!! You have no idea how much I needed to hear those words of support and encouragement!!!! Tsheriff you're right, even though they don't offer the sign-on bonus I am SUPER excited about the opportunity to work ...

Thanks so much for your reply Pinoy. It is true the hospital sounds great and it seems like a very nice atmosphere, it's close to home, and I really like the mgr. But I have also researched several other OC/LA hospitals and this is the only one that...

Actually I am starting late.....I graduated in December and got my RN license in February....I decided to take some time off before I started working. Seems like at LBMMC they are trying to reduce the number of travelers they are using, so they inf...

They start new grads off at $28.44. Do you also have to sign a 2-year contract? They gave me my official start date May 7th, I still have to get ACLS and PALS what about you?

The first day of the kaplan course is a readiness test, then the second day you get your results and they teach you the "strategies" for critical thinking/test taking - every class after that is just going over the answers to all the questions to the...

Hey onmywaytorn, that job sounds much like one I was just offered.....6 month orientation and 2 year contract because it is a specialty unit. I am a little weary about signing a 2-year contract myself. Have you found out anything about how restrict...

Thanks for the reply. I went on the interview today - and well, I got it! I just have to wait for them to give me my official start date. Only thing I'm wondering now is about 2 year contract......that seems like quite a LONG time - the mgr told ...

LAC+USC ER program is only conducted twice per year. April and September. April is already filled, and if you want to get into septembers program you need to start the hiring process/interviewing ASAP because the people from my nursing school who d...

UCLA medical center or Harbor UCLA? Depends, Harbor is a county facility and pays overtime - over 40 hours....

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!! :monkeydance: :smiley_aa :yelclap: :yelclap: :Crash:

I am a new RN and I applied for a position in the Emergency Department. The thing is that the hospital where I want to work only has Peds ER positions available (seperate from Adult and Psych)...... I have never thought of doing Peds exclusively; ...

OK.......so I went on my interview today! It went SUPER good! The nurse manager is great! Very personable, nice and has a good handle on her units! She went through her normal q's but when she asked why PED I made sure I threw in "if you can get ...

I agree...we had hurst and kaplan come to our school and put together a package/mini-seminar on what they offer. Hurst sounded very nice, but it seemed more like a review of nursing content - the last thing I wanted after having JUST finished school...
