1. Should I stay or should i go?

   SunnyCaRN replied to RNmom7's topic in First Year After Licensure

   Okay that is a tough one. But I think I would say to stick it out with the job you have. You were blessed to be working with encouraging nurses, at site day-care, a routine that works for you and your...

   Stick with it - you will graduate in 2 to 3 years depending on the program and the economy will have changed by then - hopefully for the better! You just got a great reminder why this is worth it!!...

   I would count Cali out but AZ is hiring alot of new grads - a lot of Cali new grads have gone

4. California laws

   SunnyCaRN replied to Cek4k4's topic in First Year After Licensure

   I would say your only disadvantage is that you didn't go to school here and don't know anyone to network with. I wish you luck becuase the job market for new grads here is very tough and we are all...

   I am doing a clinical rotation at PPH right now. As far as I know they are not doing any paid externships again this year. I talked to a new hire and they only hired 9 new grads for both hospital and...

   SunnyCaRN replied to chaquana's topic in General Nursing

   Alot of hospitals in my area pay by union set wages so check in your area for a nursing union - look on the pay scale and pick the lowest amount because I'm sure that is what we will make. Wage also...

7. Seeking advice if nursing is the right path!

   SunnyCaRN replied to vanillavirtue's topic in General Students

   I think that you should really take some time to decide on what you really want to do. IMHO it sounds like your not really in to nursing. I know some people that work as a waitress to get by through...

8. I need advice please

   SunnyCaRN replied to worrywart's topic in General Students

   I think you should finish. You do not have to work in a hospital setting once you have your degree and licence. You can go and work at a school and be a school nurse. Not so much stress there and you...

   SunnyCaRN replied to LulaNurse's topic in General Students

   I think your right to avoid them. It is no use trying to tell them your position, it is just better that you know how hard you have worked to get where you are. Stay the course and soon you will not...

    SunnyCaRN replied to Aiming4Altruism's topic in General Students

    I think your brother is right. I decided after my first four weeks and exams that is what I'm going to do. I also took the plunge and de-binded my fundamentals book. Now I can take the chapters out...

    SunnyCaRN replied to avsmch's topic in General Students

14. Did/Does your program use a Point System??

    SunnyCaRN replied to Sl1011's topic in General Students

    My program used the points system. We did know how points were awarded and we new just our own points. We didn't know how many applied but when we were accepted we were told over 400 for 44 slots....

15. Am I crazy?? Taking 15 credits??

    SunnyCaRN replied to Buffy31's topic in General Students

    No I think it you can do it. Psyc 101 is pretty easy and it will give you a break up against two sciences. The pre-nursing section always gave me alot of support because they have class specific...
