    Specialize in Pediatric AND Adult emergency care?

    My er sees everybody. Yesterday, my patient's ages ranged from 10 months to 98 years. We're a 50 bed er in a suburban community hospital. Nope, not a teaching hospital but is that absolutely critical...

    Failed the NCLEX 4th time. Seriously? :(

    Kaplan q-bank should have pointed out your weak areas. I would suggest honing in where you scored the poorest. I think the nclex also provides an overview of where you went under the bar. And don't...

    Self evals

    We started a few years ago. I prefer them to peer reviews because a self eval allows me to sing my praises as loud as I want. Make a copy of the first one you do and if it results in a high rating,...

    Rn to medic

    I'm an RN. If you look at my name, you'll see that it translates to "EMT-B to RN". What that means is I was (am) an EMT-B and became a nurse. Make sense
