  1. Still no official NCLEX result. Texas BON

    Sorry! I guess I misunderstood what you were asking for information on. Well, the BON was closed for a week in June (I believe the 8th-12th) in order to change their system over to this new nurse...
  2. Still no official NCLEX result. Texas BON

    Go to https://www.BON.texas.gov/ and click the link in the middle of the page for the Texas Nurse Portal. It will allow you to setup an account. My cohort graduated right after the BON finished...
  3. Children's Health Dallas July 2020 Nurse Residency

    Maybe it’s the link to the onboarding stuff? Like the drug screen info, background check, employment history check (and they do check and the dates and everything have to match), tax stuff. I...
  4. Children's Health Dallas July 2020 Nurse Residency

    I’m so glad you got on somewhere else! Try not to take the lack of rejection letter/email personally. This pandemic thing is keeping the hospital pretty crazy. We’ve only had a couple of cases...
  5. Children's Health Dallas July 2020 Nurse Residency

    I did interview with her and one of the charge nurses. OCH is an amazing place, and a lot of the people who work there have been there since it was part of Baylor. That includes the techs. They...
  6. Children's Health Dallas July 2020 Nurse Residency

    Ooh! I love it there! I used to work there PRN, and I had a couple of clinical shifts there. I interviewed there on Feb 26th. They were my second choice! Good luck to
  7. Children's Health Dallas July 2020 Nurse Residency

    IDK what the excuse was before, but now everything is kind of crazy with this COVID-19 thing. Updates from HR are usually slow, but now they’re gonna be even slower. They’re too busy sending out...
  8. Pediatric Care Plan...Help!

    God I hate care plans. But there’s this: your nursing diagnoses should be based on your assessment. IDK how your teacher does it, but ours has us prioritize them. Deficient knowledge is great,...
  9. Children's Health Dallas July 2020 Nurse Residency

    They use an electronic reference form. You fill out the form with the email addresses of the people you want to give you a reference, and it sends them an email survey to take. It’s pretty easy....
  10. Children's Health Dallas July 2020 Nurse Residency

    I was told I didn’t have to do it since I’m an internal applicant, but my advice is to do it as soon as possible. I love Children’s, but HR isn’t the fastest, so whatever you can get done in...

    I think so. He made it seem like he had a lot of calls to get through. Good luck

    I emailed and said that the date didn’t work for me and was rescheduled. Idk how it works for OOS peeps, but maybe try it? Good luck to
  17. Parkland Residency Summer 2020

    Oh that’s good! I think it’s weird that places like Cook’s count it because an LVN and RN are
  18. Parkland Residency Summer 2020

    Have you checked the requirements? Just asking because some places (like Cook Children’s) won’t take former LVNs in a new grad residency. They say being an LVN counts as professional nursing...
  19. Parkland Residency Summer 2020

    I didn’t ask the panel. The guy who gave me the tour said it’s usually
  20. Parkland Residency Summer 2020

    ? I didn’t think that one was that bad. Lol! I think they just want to know that you’re not arrogant or a know-it-all. You’re supposed to be afraid as a new grad. A little bit of fear can help...
  21. Parkland Residency Summer 2020

    Is that how that works? I wondered. I’ve got two units in red that I haven’t heard from yet. But one of the units I interviewed for this afternoon (SICU/PCU) is not and has never been red....

    Even my own unit hasn’t looked through all the applications yet. Cardiac must just be on top of it! Lol! I’m sure everyone will hear back soon. Good luck to everyone and try not to
  25. Children's Health Dallas July 2020 Nurse Residency

    Interviews usually happen on the unit. After you get into the hospital, you’ll just let the front desk know who you’re there to see, then they’ll get you a sticker, call them and they’ll come...
