I want to apply for the bridge but they got a whole new point system now especially with the HESI test. It's not 90% or greater anymore. And I'm trying to figure out how the scoring goes with the HESI

I'm called the school and it's still unclear. Do you guys know how the new point system works for the HESI?

I’m sorry that happened to you

I understand the purpose of that role is so you don’t pick up extra shifts. And personally I don’t consider staying to your relief comes is picking up extra shifts. I spoke to them this morning and they said the same thing you said. I work two 16 hour shifts and and 8. She mentioned it that if it was going to be a continual thing for me to possibly take off on of the shifts so make up for it. That of course is not feasible I never know when I’m gonna have to stay a little late, that screws up the schedule that they make ahead of time and they will constantly have to find replacements for me, loss of income, not to mention where I work at even though working 32 hours is technically full-time they don’t consider it full-time. My pay will drop the $16 an hour I’ll lose my benefits and retirement. Five years from now can’t come soon enough. I wish it was like probation or they can offer early termination of contract. Kind of like good time gained.

So IPN has a 40 our a week restriction. My question is how strict is this and is there any leeway. Sometimes the relief comes in late and you can’t abandon your patients so you have to stay is that mean I have to leave early another day to compensate? And what if you’re busy and couldn’t get your 30 minute break does that mean I have to leave 30 minutes early? And what happens with daylight savings time, in the fall when you have an extra hour for that shift do I have to leave an hour early? I am new to this and my first week back because of staff shortages and people being late I was pulled over on my hours and because I don’t know the answer I ended up clocking out for five hours for the week while I was working so I wouldn’t get more than 40 but I was still technically working just not clocked in for those five hours. Not sure how it’s all tracked if I PN gets a copy of your time clock to see exactly what you worked or if a supervisor just checks off a box saying yes or no overtime/over 40 hours. Can someone shed some light on this please

I got into a fight with my ex-husband got upset and had too much to drink. My mom got worried and asked me to go into treatment. I’ve never gotten In trouble at work, never showed up to work on a substance. I was told that I would have to be reported to IPN because it’s mandatory by state that I was at a treatment facility. I did inpatient for two weeks and now doing IOP for 12 weeks. No one is telling me anything it’s like you’re kept in the dark. Rumors I have found online is that I can’t go to school I can’t work any overtime I’m a throw the IPN is astronomical. You’re not allowed to work night shift. I don’t know what’s true or not true and it makes me wonder as well what other restrictions am I going to have to face. what restrictions, rules, limitations etc… have others had to abide by?
