  1. Hhhmmmm ... That's what I keep hearing. I am considering doing the 3yr Bsn here, then Opt if possible, then do a Masters. I've got the opportunity to go to a very good school here and get some fabulous training and education. Given the scary state of...
  2. Hi I'm a UK citizen in the US hoping to do a Direct Entry Masters (3yr course) in Pediatric nursing. The likelihood is, given the visa situation/retrogression that I will have to come home once I have done my OPT and get a job back in the UK. Will th...
  3. Volunteer/Shadow experience in the NICU

    I am at the start of the road to becoming a NNP. I'll be doing an accelerated BSN first, hopefully starting next summer, then gaining a couple of years experience as an RN, then on to do my Masters after that. But before I get onto the accelerated BS...
  4. Hi, I am a pre-nursing student aiming to do a DEMSN at IHP next Fall 2009. I was wondering if anyone had any contacts either at Children's, BWH or MGH for the NICU/Newborn Nursery? I am trying to find a volunteering opportunity in the NICU or Newborn...
  5. Volunteer/Shadow experience in the NICU

    Thanks Steve :) I was wondering about the kangaroo care in the NICU. Would you recommend I ask for volunteer experience in a newbie nursery first then, if I want to do more hands on care? Or is it out of the question that a volunteer can do hands on ...
  6. Volunteer/Shadow experience in the NICU

    Anyone? I'd really appreciate any advice from anyone on how to get the ball rolling on becoming a NICU nurse.
  7. MGH Institute of Health Professions

    Hi Angie :) Thanks for replying! I would like to know more about the quality of teaching, the NP job prospects (as I've heard Boston is a NIGHTMARE to try and get a new grad position) and also whether IHP offer a decent financial package to help with...

  16. The MSN/EB2 situation

    Hi I am at the very start of a combined BSN/MSN course in the States and am originally from the UK. If I do get offered a job here/apply for a job here once I am qualified (4 years time) and I have the MSN will I qualify for the EB2? It says on the V...
  17. The MSN/EB2 situation

    Apparently I can get the two OPTs as the BSN is accelerated but seperate from the MSN. It is just the fact I can do one straight after the other that makes it combined IYSWIM. After the BSN you can do the NCLEX, then continue on to the MSN where you ...
