    I'm living about 20 minutes away from my hospital so prices aren't as expensive for more sqft. Also, I have yet to find a reputable breeder without insane prices for puppies so I haven't gotten my...

    The links for direct deposit setup and parking are either not working or telling me access is denied. I also can't access the on boarding portal anymore for some

    If you have a multistage license, you should be able to practice in TN for 90 days and just have to fill out the primary residence form. Call the TN BON tomorrow and they should be able to direct you...

    I originally thought I was because my license is in Georgia, which is in the enhanced Nurse License Compact, but because my primary address is in Alabama my license is single state only. However the...

    I was able to fill out the application and everything in one day. It took some scrambling around town, but it's definitely worth it. When I called the TN BON they said it takes about 6 weeks for...

    Pretty sure I want to live with someone too. Coming home to only my pets on hard days and not another person would get quite lonely after a while. I definitely would like to live close enough to walk...

    The NCLEX is a national test so it does not matter what state you take it in. You can also apply to any state board of nursing. Just contact that board of nursing first to make sure what their...

    Hey everyone, New RN here who could use some advice on preparing for my first job! I graduated 2 months ago and passed my NCLEX last month. Now I have about a month and a half before I start my first...

    I got licensed in GA first and am now having to be endorsed by TN. It takes 6-8 weeks for the endorsement to be processed. You might as well go ahead and get licensed in TN if you are for sure going...
