  1. Side hustle?

    ccuRN24 replied to steffyh's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I've been trying to look for focus groups here and there (I need to get on a list for someone to call so I can do them more often). I just did one on albumin and they interviewed me for a little over...

  2. Need Honest Answers

    ccuRN24 posted a topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Hi everyone! I'm thinking about going back to school, but have so many questions and no one in my personal or work life to ask. I'd also like some brutally honest answers on what you think. I...

  3. MCPHS Fall 2019 ABSN Program

    ccuRN24 replied to jessjones92's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    First semester you take 4 classes - patho/pharm, nursing skills, nursing history, and nursing concepts. This semester you really need to hit the ground running - it's A LOT of work. I used to come...

  4. MCPHS Fall 2019 ABSN Program

    ccuRN24 replied to jessjones92's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I know this thread has kind of died off, but I graduated from the program a couple years ago and can answer any questions as not much has changed! I kinda wanna give back since I'm currently...

  5. Need Honest Answers

    ccuRN24 replied to ccuRN24's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    What kinds of jobs can ACNP have that aren’t in hospital? Maybe urgent care? I have always thought I’d go back to school to be a provider, just not this soon. But you’re right I will definitely...

  6. Need Honest Answers

    ccuRN24 replied to ccuRN24's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    The Boston market is definitely flooded I’m sure! I know other Massachusetts cities are so Boston definitely is - this is also a concern, but I haven’t heard anyone say that who actually works...

  7. Need Honest Answers

    ccuRN24 replied to ccuRN24's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Thank you for your input! I do really like cardiology and was thinking maybe a clinic position as there aren’t a lot of inpatient cardiology NP positions at my hospital (they are beginning to make...

  8. Need Honest Answers

    ccuRN24 replied to ccuRN24's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    This is good to know! I will definitely stay per diem at my current job (assuming I would be allowed to - I don’t see why not) so I can still do some bedside critical care. I just no longer want it...

  9. Need Honest Answers

    ccuRN24 replied to ccuRN24's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I love it, but most days I'm so over it! I'm thinking worst case I can always stay per diem in the ICU and still work as an

  10. Need Honest Answers

    ccuRN24 replied to ccuRN24's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Totally agree with both being respectable positions! I love critical care, but I know I wont love it at the NP level. Plus, my hospital doesn't even have NPs in our units (only PAs in cardiac...

  11. Need Honest Answers

    ccuRN24 replied to ccuRN24's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    The market is definitely starting to become saturated where I am, but I also have a really great rapport with my hospital (started as a nurses aide and have worked my way up) and know that they're...

  12. Finished nursing school and waiting on approval from BRN to take nclex

    ccuRN24 replied to julicabr6731's topic in Nursing Career

    I recently graduated and passed my NCLEX and have a job lined up. I took two weeks off around the holidays to just relax and not think about nursing. I had access to Hurst, Kaplan, and UWorld....

  13. SICU Patients?

    ccuRN24 posted a topic in Critical Care

    What kind of patients do you get in your SICUs? I've been reading through the site and it seems like each one is a little different and different from the one at my hospital. I'm thinking of...

    ccuRN24 replied to twentybirds's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

  15. Boston Medical Center New Grad Critical Care Residency 2017/2018

    ccuRN24 replied to SLRN27's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I know I was like that's the whole summer depending on when we start! I'm not sure if we aren't guaranteed a job until 2 weeks in or just a unit? So nerve wracking! Also if it starts the 5th that's a...

  16. Boston Medical Center New Grad Critical Care Residency 2017/2018

    ccuRN24 replied to SLRN27's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I had it yesterday! It wasn't what I was expecting, but nurses are adaptable hahah. So it seems the program is 6 months. I was so nervous when she was explaining it I missed half of it! Good luck at...

    ccuRN24 replied to SLRN27's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Does anyone know anything about BMC like pay, benefits, parking, literally anything at all about how the program is run? I've been dying to find out any

  18. Boston Medical Center New Grad Critical Care Residency 2017/2018

    ccuRN24 replied to SLRN27's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    So I'm thinking it might not be the first week in February? Selfishly trying to plan a quick little trip, but would obviously take a job over

    ccuRN24 replied to SLRN27's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I read on their LinkedIn job posting it starts February 5th, but HR also told me they weren't sure of a start date. So maybe that is from a past program start

    Hi all! I know this thread is a bit outdated, but I'm wondering what your experience in the new grad program was like. How long from applying did it take you to hear back, how was the program...
