  1. L&d, post-partum, Nursery rotation

    We rotate between L&D and mother/baby - we have a level 2 nursery but rarely have babies in there. When new nurses start, they are oriented to M/B first and work there for 6 months-1 year before...
  2. Base pay from suburban IL

    I can tell you that Centegra (about 30 min. north of Streamwood - very reasonable commute) pays new grads $28/hr starting. I have no clue how much/if that increases with experience, but I have heard...
  3. I am graduating from an ADN program in December. We are currently in our OB clinical rotation - I've had a great experience, and all I've ever wanted to be is an OB nurse. I need advice on what I...

    I talked to Connie Uehlken in the department this afternoon - the reason I got turned down was because 12 years ago, I flunked out of Iowa because I was really depressed and not getting treatment....

    I didn't get in. I don't understand how someone with a 4.0, a near perfect Accuplacer, and all prerequisites complete doesn't get accepted. I wish you all the best of

    I'm going to have to start popping Klonopins if that damn letter doesn't come

    I built a schedule - looks like I'll be driving in 3 days a week. If I get the classes I want, I'll be on campus Monday noon-7:30pm, Tuesday 8am-4pm, Thursday 8am-11am. I wish I could get that...

    I don't have that. I'm so confused. I did register for Orientation on the 17th, though. Kind of annoyed that I waited so long to register and had to do a Wednesday - I'm going to have to miss my...
