BSNnurse20

I got a call that I'm in! Good luck to everyone still waiting!

I interviewed yesterday and haven't heard anything yet. Fingers crossed because I really want to go here. Definitely was nervous during my interview so feeling a bit worried I won't get in.

Haven't heard anything since I submitted but are the interviews online or in person?

Hey everyone I am in a bit of a dilemma. I have less than 3 weeks left of my BSN program. I currently applied to get a non-compact license in the state my school is in (Oklahoma). I am technically a California resident so I was not able to get a compact license. I had accepted a job and planned on working in Oklahoma in an ICU up until now. I recently was offered an ICU job in Missouri which is where I had been trying to relocate to due to family. They would like me to start the 3rd week of September. My question is: Do I continue and get my licensure in Oklahoma and then apply for endorsement to Missouri after obtaining my RN license or do I become an Oklahoma resident quickly (if possible) and switch my licensure request to be a compact state? One other option would be to reapply for licensure in MO and withdraw my license request from OK. Any advice is appreciated.

Depends on why the patient is being treated with carvedilol and hydralazine? Is it specifically for high blood pressure or for some other reason (heart failure). If it was just for BP then yes I would personally hold if both low, but if it’s for decreased LV function then you might have to present the case the to the Dr. For some CHF patients as long as BP is above 100 systolic and they are asymptomatic they take their medications (i.e., lisinopril, carvedilol, diuretics, etc).

Diastolic blood pressure can be low in cases of aortic regurgitation or even old age. You still have to treat the systolic if high. Diastolic in the 50s is not much concern. At least this is what I’ve seen.

I haven’t either I keep checking my email. I’m accepted OU Tulsa.

Accepted to OU Tulsa! Now to find a place to live since I’m out of state.
