I need a career advice. I have been working as an RN at one of the LA county hospital for 5 years and recently got offered a job to work at Veterans Affair. Anyone here who made that move? Are the benefits the same or which one is better in terms of pay and benefits. Please advice. Thank you.

hi @Pidokenny , can you give us an update on how the job is?? I'm looking into this job also and very interested with it. Tnx

Thank you guys for the replies. ?

Hi, Asking for advice. I’m a new RN and I work in a surgical specialty clinic. Sometimes we have patients that the doctors wants to admit for further management of infections or pain control. How should I go about my handout to the admitting nurse. Usually what I start with is - Pt’s history then I say the reason for admission, any allergies, code status, mobility, alertness then I go for meds, labs, or any imaging that are that are given and what are pending. Any thing I should add to make it better? Thank you.

Hi all, This is my first time renewing with CEU’s. Can someone help me find an online CEU source approved by the boards. Thank you.

Hi all, Moving soon to vegas from CA. I have no prior RN experience but I worked as an LVN for 2 years. Im looking for outpatient jobs mainly because we have a young baby so clinic hours would work best ? any suggestions where to apply?? Thanks

Is that good compared to benefits offered by private hospitals?

I currently work for LA County and I’m happy with them. I guess UMC is a better option?? But the $50 /hr pay is tempting ?

Oh wow thank you. Any idea on how UMC pays. I’m choosing between the two or if you have any suggestion considering pay and benefits. Please let me know .. thank you.

Any one knows how much St. Rose Dominican will pay an ICU nurse with 7 years experience . Trying to move from CA to Las vegas! thank you.!

Hi all, We are planning to move from CA to Nevada and we are choosing between Henderson or Summerlin area. Just wondering what are the hospitals that has the best offer in this area in regards to pay and benefits. Or do they offer relocation assistance. My wife is an RN with 1 year step down and 5years ICU experience . What would be the ongoing hourly pay for nurses with this experience? And which hospital is the best? We are looking into UMC but upon research they don’t pay that well. Is St. rose a good choice? As for me, I am a foreign trained nurse who just recently passed my RN exam. But I do have 2 years LVN experience working in ambulatory care in one of the LA County Hospital. Does that qualify as an acute experience? And also there’s a lot of RN residency program that different hospital offers but I don’t know if I qualify for those since I am not a recent graduate. Just wanna know where can I apply. Any input would be very much appreciated! Thank you.

If I opted to do the LVN-RN 30 units option will it also be a 24 months program? Or shorter?

This year around february

Is this the 30 unit option? Or the regular bridge program??

Same with me, 2009 graduate. I already asked my school to send a certification to BRN regarding the completion of my cases and the inability to provide such copies. BRN replied and they still asking copies of my cases. Bummer! Since I am an LVN in Cali, I might just do the LVN 30 Units option soon. Goodluck to you !
