1. CNA disrespecting new grad.

   JillFRN replied to JillFRN's topic in First Year After Licensure

   JillFRN replied to JillFRN's topic in First Year After Licensure

   JillFRN replied to Silverdragon102's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

   Hi everyone, I passed my boards in June, but I did the PVT for my friend who took it today. She got the good pop-up except for the part that says please contact your Member Board. Is this something...

8. Do I really need my BSN?

   JillFRN posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

   I currently have my ADN in Nursing with a B.S. in Public Health. With all the talk I have been hearing of needing your BSN do I need to get it since I already have a B.S.? A side note, I am planning...

    We just had our midterm. I am in my senior year and I did pretty well on it. The only questions I struggled on were which pt do I see first. I tried following ABC's and that ended me up in the wrong...

14. I've decided to blog about my experiences in nursing school from start to finish.

    JillFRN replied to lllchillylll's topic in General Students
