    COVID-19: Passed the NCLEX but the Board of Nursing has not issued my license number!

    Rose_Queen replied to covidletmebeanurse's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Most likely, these places are working with reduced staff. My sister works in a government job and to reduce the number of people in the same room, they are all working 2 on and 2 off. Unfortunately,...

    Herd immunity

    Rose_Queen replied to CampyCamp's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Herd immunity implies that a large enough group of people have immunity. Seeing as there is no vaccine, that would mean people would have had it to be immune. And I can’t believe that enough people...

    CoronaVirus and getting a job in a hospital

    Rose_Queen replied to SueRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    As with many things, the nursing shortage can't be generalized to the entire country. There are indeed pockets of shortages, but there are also pockets of surpluses as well. As for why they want...

    SINGLE STATE LICENSE

    Help Deciding Which Nursing School Route to Pursue

    Rose_Queen replied to b530c58's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
