    Frustrated and considering a career change

    Multicollinearity replied to xEdgexRNx's topic in General Nursing

    If you want honest feedback, here it is: your posts are sounding flaky. I checked out your other posts and multiple, similar threads. You posted that you were "let go" from one hospital job because...

    Frustrated and considering a career change

    Multicollinearity replied to xEdgexRNx's topic in General Nursing

    You may have to expand your job search to find an RN job right now. There are hospitals that are still hiring new grads. You may be able to get relocation money, too, but these hospitals are often...

    Nursing Program @Grand Canyon University

    Multicollinearity replied to Kabin's topic in School, College Programs

    I'm not finding undergrad program rankings. I could only find university-as-a-whole rankings for undergrad and graduate school program rankings. At this point, though, I'm tired of all the ranking...

    Nursing Program @Grand Canyon University

    Multicollinearity replied to Kabin's topic in School, College Programs

    The US News and World Report rankings I referenced includes private schools. The number one university in this list is a private school. GCU (undergrad, university as a whole) just isn't ranked at...

    Multicollinearity replied to Kabin's topic in School, College Programs

    University Ranking from US News and World Report For reference, Harvard is ranked TIER ONE, number one (the very best). Universities are ranked from tier one (best) to tier four, and some are not...

    Nursing Program @Grand Canyon University

    Multicollinearity replied to Kabin's topic in School, College Programs

    If I hadn't been accepted to a state school, I would have definitely considered GCU and been glad to be accepted there. And I would have been proud of my GCU degree, and my school. But I wouldn't...

    Nursing Program @Grand Canyon University

    Multicollinearity replied to Kabin's topic in School, College Programs

    As I said before, GCU is a perfectly respectable school. Some of us here on the board were addressing some of the absurd statements like it's the best nursing program in the state and that a BSN is...

    Nursing Program @Grand Canyon University

    Multicollinearity replied to Kabin's topic in School, College Programs

    I still get sales pitch emails from GCU, and I'm about to graduate from another nursing program! All this said, I really don't want to make statements that might make GCU students feel badly. They...

    Multicollinearity replied to Kabin's topic in School, College Programs

    Arizonabuckeye, Your statements remind me of the GCU (sales) representative who used to constantly email me, trying to get me to apply. The top universities don't try to sell themselves and deluge...

    NP discusses MJ on national TV ????

    Multicollinearity replied to Misslady113's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not liking this nurse's actions, but let's play devil's advocate for a minute. Has this information become public knowledge because police referred to their interview with her in court documents?...

    I want to know what nurses think about socialized medicine.

    Multicollinearity replied to ratchet41's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    One of my Canadian relatives comes to the US every winter. She has health coverage in both countries. She nearly died of a heart condition while in the United States. She was admitted to hospitals...

    Desired Characteristics of Effective Nurse Educators - My Ideal Nursing Instructor

    Multicollinearity replied to VickyRN's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    Vicki, Thank you for your thoughts on this. Truth - I know I will say absolutely nothing. All I care about is graduating in December. I guess I needed to vent, though, because I sure did so here!...

    New Grad...No job and have no clue what to do

    About how much did these classes cost, individually and all together? What an interesting idea. I've planned on getting BLS this summer, but I didn't know the other classes were

    Desired Characteristics of Effective Nurse Educators - My Ideal Nursing Instructor

    Multicollinearity replied to VickyRN's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    Interesting post, Vicki. I found the part about which parts of evaluations are valid and which are not valid to be quite interesting. Here's a point that hasn't been mentioned: how many evaluations...

    What's up with nursing signing bonuses?

    Multicollinearity replied to allenwiemer's topic in General Nursing

    The US Public Health Service Commissioned Corp. has been offering a sign on bonus of $25,000. It seems they have to offer this bonus because the work locations tend to be in rural areas, and a BSN is...

    "If you sit down and chart for more than 15 minutes, that's considered a break"

    Multicollinearity replied to JomoNurse's topic in General Nursing

    Breaks are optional in some states, not mandated by law. In these states, breaks are at the discretion of the employer and "as the work flow permits." In almost two years of clinicals, I have yet...

    Mind Boggling - Not going to graduation?

    Multicollinearity replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Students

    I think I was feeling sad last week when I posted that I would rather not go to pinning. Now I feel differently, and look forward to our pinning ceremony more since I'm not feeling 'down'. I agree...

    Do facilities sometimes try to get rid of more experienced, more expensive nurses?

    Multicollinearity replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    The hospitals in my big metro area are only hiring experienced nurses now, since the economy has tightened up. New grads are having a terrible time and are not getting
