I did a really nice resignation letter thanking them for the opportunity. There are some people there who really love home health. It was not the right fit for me and I felt trapped. They were short and it seemed like I worked all day and night with charting, patients calling, dr offices calling, the office calling. I just didnt know how much more I could take before I messed up somewhere and then have to explain or be sorry for in that respect. I really felt in my gut that I just needed to leave. Thanks so much for replies and advice.

thanks for replies, but i really felt stressed out; family was stressed out because i was stressed out; started going to bed with headaches, waking up with headaches. I talked with recruiter at prosepective hospital and she assured me that not doing a 2 week notice for certain reasons was okay for them, but any other place I would probably have to explain.

if you're working in a really unorganized agency with no support. is it really, really, really necessary to do a 2 weeks notice. have been in home health for 6 months, but realize that acute care is really my niche and working nights. i feel unproductive and working ineffective. any suggestions or views appreciated.

Hello, everyone. Live in Pearl, worked at umc 2 years as cardiac nurse, but now in home health. So far so good. Lot of getting use to, but I don't think I'll go back to floor nursing for awhile.

hello, i am a recent grad from excelsior college, i started at hinds in jackson, finished with excelsior and didn't have any problems with license, sitting for boards or finding a job, work at umc in cardiology, you can pm me for more info, leave a number or email and i'll be glad to talk with you. lovernursebeing

congrats to all who have passed in the past week, have been working- i am very worn out already, but it feels soooooooooooooo good. for those who haven't tested yet, keep the faith, pray and pus(pray until something happens), it's a tough road, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

oh, i forgot, i did the hurst review online also and it really helped. i mixed some of the info and it all came to the same point. also another thing i forgot to tell was TO REMAIN POSITIVE, DON'T FRET OR BE TOO ANXIOUS, IT'S HARD BUT TRY: PHILL 4:6-7, PSALMS 37:4-5, THIS REALLY WORKS, TRY IT, I PROMISE- STAY POSITIVE ESPECIALLY THROUGHOUT THE WAITING PERIOD, THATS THE HARDEST PART.

just found out at 12:15am that i passed boards in the great state of mississippi, had all 265q, 5 hours. it was hard, but everytime i hit a hard spot, i asked the holy spirit to guide me to the right answer. this was my second time, first time in sept. with 75 q. what i did different was i studied and answered more questions, a litte over 3000. i used sauders of course with cd, i used a friend's left over kaplan stuff, and the ncsbn site was good, also i purchased the mosby's delegation, prioritization,assignment book, it was the bomb, my whole test was practically that book, felt real good at some points, had about 5 sata, 3 calcu., lots of medication teaching, priority, who to see first, who to call first. yall, this has been a true struggle, i would be typing all day and night to tell the story. but it can happen, i am a living testimony. oh, i almost forget one thing: prayer, lots of it, my whole church family is taking nclex, it seems. they have been holding my name up for the last week and it is god's amazing grace that has bought me through this journey. everyone that has contributed to these posts have also been a study guide or encouragement to me. i thank you all, can't call everyone by name, but thank you, thank you, thank you and good morning:) if anyone wants to know anything in particular, feel free to pm me. terra

born2burn, kaicam, reddy hope that you guys or girls had a good experience and have answered all the questions in a manner that nclex people will post those pass scores soon, keep us posted.

Very normal, out of my class that started in spring 2004 with 120, only about 15 actually graduated on time, some were weeded out, some eventually staggered to 4th semester or others just dropped out, because it just seems too much of a hassle really trying to make it when you are doing everything you could possibly do to pass.
