1. APEA Predictor

   newnursewhodiis replied to vbarger28's topic in NP Students

   @discouraged1989 I mean our usernames say a ton about our experience with the school LOL, I scored in the yellow zone for all my attempts and by other schools that is a pass. Boards and knowing the material is what matters- good luck on your fou...

2. Does RN experience affect NP salary quote?

   newnursewhodiis replied to smithdnp's topic in NP

   Just because you moved up the ranks in nursing, does not mean you understand the workforce planning aspect of careers and businesses. It is an entire different "specialty" and I wish more educational requirements were required than "leadership" and d...

3. Does RN experience affect NP salary quote?

   newnursewhodiis replied to smithdnp's topic in NP

   Im sorry that you feel resume lengths matter so much. I'm sorry you feel that someone with a longer resume would not be a good nurse pracitioner. I am sorry you work with other individuals as short sided as you. I am sorry some of those people gave y...

4. Does RN experience affect NP salary quote?

   newnursewhodiis replied to smithdnp's topic in NP

   Sherri, prior to switching careers to nursing I was in Talent Aquisition for 12 years and for you to discount a resume for not being 2 pages- that made my eyes roll. This is why people should not be able to go into hiring roles with ego's. I would ha...

5. How to become an IV Infusion nurse?

   newnursewhodiis posted a topic in New Nurse

   Hi! There are so many smaller schools who offer IV infusion courses, but I want to make sure I do one that is legitimate. Does anyone have recommendations? I know it is not as simple as knowing how to put in an IV, and it is something I would like to...

6. ICU vs OR Residency

   newnursewhodiis replied to NC_24's topic in New Nurse

   I had my preceptorship in an OR. I think state wise and depending on the hospital your OR experience will vary. The OR I was in, the surgical scrubs and the surgeons/resident surgeons and anesthesia did the bulk of the work. The nurses at this facili...

7. Regretting night shift

   newnursewhodiis replied to samurphy's topic in New Nurse

   ahhh... hmm, well I think that if you can switch to another floor (unit) and get days that you should just go for it since you have already identified not enjoying the unit. If you decide to stick it out maybe invest in some sleep glasses to wear whe...

8. Kaiser New Grad Program vs. Long Beach Memorial New Grad Program vs. St. Francis Medical Center?

   newnursewhodiis replied to kkvalenz's topic in New Nurse

   @kkvalenz thank you! I have an interview with the WLA one next week, but I am thinking of canceling. I feel like it will take a while to be brought on as a benefited new grad, and I might be better off at a traditional new grad with benefits... ...

9. Kaiser New Grad Program vs. Long Beach Memorial New Grad Program vs. St. Francis Medical Center?

   newnursewhodiis replied to kkvalenz's topic in New Nurse

   For the Kaiser new grad program isn’t it per diem? Meeting it’s not full-time and you don’t get benefits at least for the one in West LA?

    newnursewhodiis replied to NataliRN's topic in Residency

    @SoniaRN94 you are an angel! Wow such amazing benefits! I decided to go to with the other opportunity even though it is nights just because it will be the unit I wanted. It was such a hard decision. Thank you so much for sharing this I truly apprecia...

11. Regretting night shift

    newnursewhodiis replied to samurphy's topic in New Nurse

    I think you should make a list to help identify what’s bothering you. The Unit? Not having enough day light? Vitamin d deficiency which is common for night shift workers?

    newnursewhodiis replied to NataliRN's topic in Residency

    Did everyone accept on the spot? I emailed them letting me know I need until close of business Wednesday to decide. I have another offer and I am so torn. I wonder if they will rescind my offer? Does anyone have information on benefits they can share...

15. Patient Yelled At Me And I Feel Stupid

    newnursewhodiis replied to RowRN_8855's topic in New Nurse

    @row.nurse.row so I am a newgrad as well, however I have 12 years of corporate/HR experience. People like this are everywhere. You had good intentions. The way people respond has more to do about them than you. This is true in all aspects of life. N...
