The Salvation Army usually needs lots of help.

Magnet hospitals usually put BSN preffered on their job postings here in Texas. My hospital does this. I am working on my BSN but it's just because I need it to pursue my master's degree.

Med Surg is pretty hellish, you should really think about taking the L & D job because this opportunity may not present itself again.

We get two dollars an hour to be on call. We get paid time and a half for a minimum of two hours if we are called in. So we could recover a case in 45 min and leave and we still get paid for two hours.

The jacket looks fine to me, I see lots of nurse managers and supervisors at my hospital wearing a style very similar to that.

I started out in Med/Surg, all my classmates gave me a horrible look when I told them where I was working. Well you know what? I did a little over a year of med/surg and landed my dream job. So putting some time in and getting experience will make...

Thanks guys! Good luck at NL Yang.

I got my third choice. Parkland.

I got a B in lecture and A in clinical. I also know of one that was really close to failing, like a point away. But I'm sure those 3 extra points helped her. I hope I get my first choice for clinical sites next semester, but I think that's what ev...

We have ours on Tuesday. I am pretty confident, we got to practice alot. And I will pratice on Monday after the test. I am scared of the lecture test though!

Sorry Pecked! I didn't get the email that you had posted a new message, I would have answered you! Hope you did good though! I got a 92, forgot a bunch of steps due to lack of practice!

I have a slot for tomorrow at 1pm to practice. Hopefully I can get it down. It is easy to get attached to the patients, I was in recovery and it's hard to see people in that much pain. So Monday there are no spots left to practice? I was hoping ...

Three failed? That's not good. Nobody in our class failed. I think 95 was the lowest grade. But we have enteral next week and only practiced 15 minutes with our instructor. Good job on your grade!

I got a 100 on my check off!:balloons: Now it's time to start studying for the one next week!

Congrats Pecked! I got an 86 as well. All I really studied was my fundamentals of success book and the lec. notes. I will study meds pub next time and hopefully do better. Yeah, most of my group got 86's. One guy got a 70:o and a couple others l...

About the voucher, if you check on ecampus there is a page that says; "Installation instructions for Evolve Select CD that came with the box of textbooks. Let your Ms. Johnston know if you did not receive the CD or lost the white voucher form that wi...

Kanora said that we would be having skills lab on Mondays. She said that there would be one section that would have it two days a week instead of one. What all did the bulletin board say?

I have a question for you guys, at orientation they said to pay the fees at the first of August for insurance and what not. Since us who took the HPRS class are not enrolled in any of the classes can we still pay the fees?

You didn't get the email because you already passed HPRS, she is just being the gate keeper for us who are taking it! I am fall 07 at EC.

Well there are several Fall 07 Nursing students in my lecture class, but not 24. My class is like 5 sections combined. Hopefully that many did not loose their spot.

Yes, I just checked my email. I kinda figured that's what was going on. My friend who did not get in went to retrieve her packet to re-apply, they told her not to pick it up yet. Several fall 07 students at EC failed HPRS and lost their spot. Kin...

Orzonus, El Cetro doesn't require pharm. Brookhaven and El Cetro are very different in about every aspect. I cannot say which one is easier or harder to get into. It's all by grade point average. One thing I can say about Brookhaven is that th...

Fall 07 EC, Are any of ya'lls schedules up? The paper says after 3:00pm, but it's now 4:30pm and I'm showing 0 hours! Let me know please if yours are up!

So... Can we buy the flared ones as long as they are black? Or should I wait to see how strict my instructor/hospital is?

I recieved my uniform! It fits good, but the pants are U_G_L_Y! I want to take the keys to success course, but right now I'm in HPRS so I'll worry about that later.
