  1. New LPN, this is HARD. Need advice.

    ninejams replied to dsomday's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    I'm on the same boat as you. Luckily, I'm not taking any charge nurse duties until they determine I'm ready. I'm a med nurse with 60+ clients. All of the nurses in this facility have been telling me...

  2. Help please! am a new nurse.

    ninejams replied to honeylove_joy's topic in International Nursing

    Search "bls for health care providers houston tx" in Google and you'll come up with results. Or also search the AHA (American Heart Association) website for CPR. If you do an actual job search for RN,...

    ninejams replied to honeylove_joy's topic in International Nursing

    You're welcome! Just remember to focus and follow up. Don't do what I did! :) Be consistent studying everyday and set up a plan that is reasonable for you to follow. Don't take more than two days...

  4. Advice for a New Grad RN After Quitting job/ Orientation after 5 & 1/2 months

    ninejams replied to DonovanRN's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I would say that you had issues with the personnel and staff that you worked with and make up a similar story, that if you were a nurse recruiter, you would buy it. Don't mention anything

  5. Help please! am a new nurse.

    ninejams replied to honeylove_joy's topic in International Nursing

    Hi. I was in the same spot as you, but I never took the Filipino Licensure exam and took the NCLEX-RN right away. You're doing the right thing as far as researching on things you should do until your...

    ninejams posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Hi! Kaplan is best for test taking strategies and rationales.. lots of good tips on how to memorize info etc. BUT, you will be studying on your own until you get to the live classes. I still don't...

  9. Government classifies nurses as 'unskilled workers'

    ninejams replied to karensflowers's topic in General Nursing

    From reading that statement, "if you can call nurses unskilled".. I don't think they were actually referring to nurses as unskilled, but more of an ironic statement, that makes nurses unique to have...

    ninejams replied to FELICCI's topic in International Nursing

    I have some good stories about friends who have flown to the u.s. just to have their babies born here, and even to take their nclex. IT's possible, but you do need to have a valid visa. It's going to...

  11. Thread for Filipino Nursing Students

    ninejams replied to purply_hazy's topic in Philippines

    ninejams posted a topic in Nevada Nursing

    ninejams replied to bajoy's topic in Philippines

  14. Send TOEFL results to whom?!

    ninejams posted a topic in International Nursing

    I'm registering online for the TOEFL exam coz it was supposedly the most convenient way to do it, and this question pops up and says: Select score recipients. So I went on and chose "Nevada State...

  16. My agency is Globehealth Resources-is it a good agency, please help?

    ninejams replied to fed_memb's topic in International Nursing

    I know of an agency which does this too. They operate in the US and rely on the hospital paying them to do their job of recruiting nurses abroad. They don't get anything from the nurse's salary nor do...

    ninejams replied to ninejams's topic in International Nursing

    I tried their site and didn't find the info I needed. (Got tired looking and perhaps i didn't look hard enough!) I got to know about the iBT through this forum, though. It does make sense that iBT is...
