  6. Am I making the right decision?

  8. New Grad nurse/early pregnancy advice

    FutureRN_NP replied to mrsduck's topic in First Year After Licensure

    My advice? Don't tell if she doesn't ask. Any women have a potential getting pregnant. Not a ground breaking new at all in my opinion. Wait a month or so after hired and then let her know that you...

    FutureRN_NP replied to FutureRN_NP's topic in General Nursing

  11. Let me get this clear

    FutureRN_NP posted a topic in General Nursing

    Nurses get paid based on number years of experience, am I right? How is that being calculated? For instance, 2 versus 10 yrs. It something has been on my mind for quite sometimes and just

  12. Why don't I care?

    FutureRN_NP replied to Art_Vandelay's topic in General Nursing

    FutureRN_NP replied to TheAmazingMrsA's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    I cannot answer that but I am one semester away from graduating from my RN/BSN program. I am already an RN. I am also curious to what people have to say. The reason I went back to school for BSN is...

    FutureRN_NP posted a topic in General Nursing

  16. Help, I Don't Feel Ready :(

    FutureRN_NP replied to Iammblessed2011's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Did the management offer that you can always ask for help if you need too? I always ask others for help and I have a great shift supervisor for a backup. She helps me whenever I have questions or any...

    FutureRN_NP replied to FutureRN_NP's topic in General Nursing

  19. Will the economy ever get better so less people will pursue nursing?

    FutureRN_NP replied to AddisonLawrence03's topic in General Nursing

    Have you tried to apply for scholarships? I did and it helped me tremendously. The one I used was Work Source. They should be in every school. Free money for school and textbooks but the requirement...

  20. CNAs related question, as an RN, what would you do if you were me?

    FutureRN_NP posted a topic in General Nursing

    I am new and most of CNAs there have worked there way longer than me. Some are very nice and helpful, do what I ask but there are handful who are not so much. I recognize several of them tend to be...

  24. Hardly a "new grad" anymore... this feels like a curse?

    FutureRN_NP replied to Newgrad_STAT's topic in International Nursing

    I think it all depends who interviews you. They might not ask generic questions. For me, it was not really a typical 20/20 questions. It was rather do you have any future plans and why didn't you find...
