Anybody got any more information on the initial on-campus session and orientation (is it confirmed for 1/11-1/13)? Sry if this has been covered in the facebook group; I created an account and joined the group only for mods to disable my account due t...

The majority of my science courses were from community colleges so I would say yes

Nope, nothing here yet.

Congrats!!

NP, glad you found it helpful! Always down to share what little bit of knowledge I have haha.

Burp the bag! Doing so removes all the air from the bag. Could be a little time consuming so maybe not the best method for interfacility flights where you have a ton of gtts but otherwise a good method for preventing air embolus if you're bolusing by...

One of the SRNAs said that he traveled during the first two semesters and highly recommended it. I assume it was full time but I'm not 100%. He said that it's more or less busy work at first. I believe he's a third year so things may have changed a b...

Hey guys! I've spoken with some current students about working during the Spring and Summer and they say it's very manageable as the first two semesters are comparatively light in regards to workload and mostly online. That being said, what do you al...

How's your support system? Years ago, my sister was able to complete nursing school as a single mom of two young kids but she had considerable help from our mother. I also don't think she worked during that time. If getting finished as quickly as pos...

I don't know any NP's who spend 3-4 hours with a single patient but that's not to say that job doesn't exist. NPs routinely diagnose and prescribe medications (sometimes completely independently). It may be beneficial for you to resea...

I agree, you shouldn't have a problem at all. I have worked with some new nurses with accelerated BSNs and it never even came up during their interviews.

She had no right to ask for pictures of your injury or to dispute the opinion of a physician regarding his/her recommendation of light duty. If you're still working there and your supervisor is continuing to make you uncomfortable, I would speak with...

First off, I'm sorry you're feeling so bad. I wish I had a dollar for every time I felt overwhelmed during my career, especially early on. Just know that it really does get better. Mistakes happen in healthcare. A lot of ppl don't like to talk about ...

As another commenter said, I think it really depends on the program. For most applicants, having specialized ICU experience will probably bode well for them, especially if they they are able to demonstrate that they are somewhat well-rounded as well....

I interview on the 27th! How's everyone preparing? I've heard TCU's interview is mostly emotional intelligence/personality based with very little clinical. Anybody heard anything else?

I just got my acceptance letter for the Abingdon site!! I look forward to meeting everyone in January!

that was my understanding as well

I just got an invitation to interview around an hr ago! I'll be interviewing on 7/13. Good luck to everyone!

Just completed the one-way interview. It really wasn't as bad as I was making it out to be guys so don't sweat it! At the end of the interview, they said we should know by July 1st but if anything changes they'll update their facebook page

I like that they give us such a big window to complete it. Somehow the idea of only having four questions stresses me out more haha but at least I have some time to get my nerves in check 😅. Good luck everybody!

NP at all. If you or anyone else wants to know more about my experience/stats, I'd be happy to share but would feel more comfortable doing so over DM so feel free to reach out and I'll get back when I can.

I haven't received a date and time yet.

Received my interview email around 30 mins ago! I'm interviewing for a spot at the Abingdon site. Good luck to everyone!
