Hi every body, I been a nurse for many years and worked in different departments. I always been evaluated by Rn ( manager, supervisor) when it was half a year or yearly evaluation. Recently I changed the job and now I work in the hospital as a care manager and my manager is a social worker. She already performed my first review/ evaluation of 90 days and soon we are going to have an yearly evaluations. My question is RN can be evaluated by non RN professional? And where can I find the rules if they exist. Thanks everybody

To Woodsyny, I work in IR and have a cath lab experience, what area do you work ? Let me know if you will find your CD, thank you ahead of time. Did the test was a multiple answer questions or a different standard ?

Woodsyny, Thank you for your answer. Did you find the CD from review class helpful ? I'm considering to take a preparation class, it is kind of expensive so I still didn't decided. How long time in advance did you started your preparation ?

Hi, I read every thing about certification process on ARIN site and here on all nurses. My question if somebody can share their frash experience of certification process. All that I found here it is stories from 3 and more yers ago. I would like to here something recent. Please let me know what kind of questions you had, what preperation: books, courses, sites ? Also what the good sources for CEUs do you use for IR specific requirements. Thanks

I had My NCLEX exam for first time 44 houres and 35 min before. It was tough i didn't know answers. A lot of medication which I didn't know even I knew the names of med. I couldn't recoll their features. I had like 5 multiple answers questions, tons of clinical questions on major body system, not much of dilegetion and prioterithation. The computer shout off after 75 question and the last question I know I answerd correct. Instead of shok I became so happy and with strong feeling that I failed. My exam took all together ( I mean survey before and after) 1:10 hour and i was outside. I felt the happiest person in the world that I did this test ,doesn't metter, what would be the results. I went to my job and was feeling high emotionally and so happy. Whay it heppend to me I don't konw. The bed thing in this story would be if I will find out in the less then one and half hour that i failed. I feel that for the next attempt I don't prepared emotionally. I'm scerd to check the site and to see final YES or NO I have hope
