  4. Linfield vs University of Portland

    Kyla RN replied to Geroge's topic in School, College Programs

    Hard to say and answers will likely vary based on who you asked. I graduated from UP in 2014. There's a lot of alumni in the Portland area from both programs. I loved UP's program. Well rounded,...

    Kyla RN replied to EDNURSE20's topic in General Nursing

    Kyla RN replied to Puppylover0213's topic in General Nursing

  7. Do you regret leaving bedside nursing?

    Kyla RN replied to EDNURSE20's topic in General Nursing

    I worked in inpatient/bedside for 3 years and left due to always working holidays, never getting PTO dates I wanted, and physical and emotional burn out. Now I work in clinical research. I don't...

    Kyla RN replied to rnnursemd's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    My understanding was those state restrictions are only referring to students completing their clinicals in their home states. I'm from Oregon and a lot of east coast schools wont take Oregon students....

    Kyla RN replied to JenMH88RN's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Kyla RN posted a topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Hi, I'm curious to hear people's input. I am currently researching NP programs with the goal of starting late next year (so I have some time). I'm looking at several programs within my region and 2...

  13. Want your opinion- which NP program would you choose?

    Kyla RN replied to Kyla RN's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Thanks for your feedback! Right...I honestly thought I was weighing the 2 evenly until I read what I was writing. I will definitely look into any and all forms of financial support. I appreciate...

  14. New Grad Dilemma

    Kyla RN replied to Nurse1999's topic in General Nursing

    Got my first new grad position on a med-surg floor with GI emphasis. I was so desperate to get my foot in the inpatient door so I immediately took it. I was pretty nervous after hearing about the...

  16. Lost and stressed student...

    Kyla RN replied to fcnursing's topic in General Nursing

    You do not have to work in inpatient as a new grad. That's the typical route most people go, but there are others out there like you who have no interest in hospital nursing. Not all jobs require...

  17. Seniority and preferential scheduling

    Kyla RN replied to 1MoreCoffee's topic in General Nursing

    The seniority vacation preference at my previous hospital job was one of the reasons I left inpatient. Don't get me wrong, I do think seniority nurses deserve some preferential. They have worked their...

    Kyla RN replied to Guest1130774's topic in General Nursing

    Kyla RN replied to NurseJamillah's topic in General Nursing

    I too am considering NP school part time while working close to FT in the future. Based on the extensive threads I've read about NP students working, it seems like most people prioritize or recommend...

    Kyla RN replied to Camizzle222's topic in General Nursing

    Try Research. I'm a Research RN and work a usual M-F 8-4p. Although I participate on the acute stroke trial team, and thus have to participate in on-call coverage. But I know some Research RNs who...

  21. Need Advice for Clinicals

    Kyla RN replied to Mattf526's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    If it's your first clinical, you will most likely shadow, practice some simple skills (i.e. vitals, hygiene), practice writing care plans. This is your opportunity to absorb as much information as...

  22. Jobs outside of healthcare after burnout

    Kyla RN replied to Fnp2017urgentcare's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Try Informatics. But instead of working for your healthcare employer, try the healthcare technology software companies. For example, my employer uses EPIC for EMR. I know EPIC hires nurses, although...
