In our hospital, this kind of incident should be reported to our house supervisor, she then give us a referral to ER to be checked by the health care provider on duty. btw that is... as soon as possible, no time wasted...:no:

Hi! You can check at craigslist.com, just click for your state and go to the job opportunities, it might worth a try.:)

When did you took your nclex exam? I took mine last Aug. 13th with 236 questions and ran out of time too. Please pray for me!

Congrats! Can you give us some advise on your methods in reviewing? Thanks!!!

Thanks Daytonite for that view. I've learn my lesson the hard way. I'm so depressed right now but also overwhelmed that I did the right thing. First thing this morning, I went to talk to the DON and cleared everything. And you guys were right, they really did thought that I have my license. Anyway, they told me to have my exam first then come back. Thanks to all of you. If I hadn't ask for your advise maybe I would have made a big mistake and would not have talk to the DON. It's a relief for me too having cleared my conscience. I will start tonight for another job as a nurse assistant while reviewing. More power to all nurses!!!

I am an immigrant so no need for me to undergo that kind of difficulty. I can work anytime here in US.

I used Hoodia for almost a month now but nothing happens!!! Guess it doesn't work the way it was advertised...

Anyone know how much is the starting salary of a graduate nurse?

Thanks everyone for all your advises. I think my burden is lifted now. I will clarify this matter to the DON before starting to work. And maybe I really just misunderstood things, since I was so nervous during my interview and all. It's okey for me anyway to work as a nursing assistant and work under the direct supervision of a licensed-RN. I have plenty of things to learn anyway since we have different methods of procedures in our country. And my time will come when I will also be the one doing the supervising. As for now, I am glad to open this matter to you guys. Your advises really help me a lot. Thank you so much!!!

The DON told me also to learn everything I can about supervisory position. In this case, if the DON assumes that I will act promtly, can I work then as an RN then get my license. It's only a month from now that I will be taking my NCLEX-RN exam. Do you think I will be given that kind of consideration? Thanks!

Thank you for your quick reply. Do you really think so? Then what should I do? Maybe I should talk to the DON and clarify things out. Maybe we had miscommunication. But I also read here in all nurses that new graduates also work. What do you think the kind of work they do? New graduates have no license too and yet they work in hospitals and facilities.

Hi everyone! I'm just new here and I would really love to hear your advise. I was a foreign nurse and currently migrated here in California. I will be taking my NCLEX-RN this coming July 2007. Anyway, I applied for a job in LTC and luckily will start my orientation tomorrow as an RN. Anybody know someone without a license work as an RN? or RN Resident? or new graduate RN working in LTC. The DON who interviewed me just told me that I am over qualified for a caregiver, since I have 7 years of experience in my country. What do you think will be my limitations in my duties as an RN. Is it okey for me to give an IV therapy? NGT? etc.?

Hi! Just wanna know how much is the starting salary for new grads RN in LTC. I will be taking my NCLEX-RN exam this July. Thanks!

Hi! Sorry to ask this but I am just new here and not yet familiar with some words. What is PRN?

Hi! I will be having my orientation this June 1 in LTC. A side question though since you have already 14 yrs of experience, I graduated BSN and may take my NCLEX-RN exam by july. Since I have no license yet what will be my limitations in handling patients. Any advise will be greatly appreciated.
