I was thrown into a situation where I was the only senior nurse on the floor and was Charge Nurse one night 2 weeks ago. I've been a resource nurse alot so I know what the charge nurse does. I've been blown away that I know so much on my floor to b...

Well actually i've experienced alot since ive been an RN for two years. I was actually approached by my Nurse Manager and CNIV, so its not me asking to be charge nurse, its them telling me that they think I have what it takes to charge. And I've al...

my twin brother also applied for the ADN program fall 2010. They called him today just to make sure his application is complete. Hes gonna be there also as a prenursing student to finish i think 1 science class there.

well I work currently work at Cedars right now...been there for about 2 years. I believe th enext new grad program is in february. In the best interest, if you just want a job, especially at cedars, apply for a specialty that may not be of high int...

it depends on the hospital and particularly the floor. I work at a hospital where we're supposed to work every other weekend. Furthermore sometimes staff is always short and at the times the schedules u put do not necessarily mean you'll get that d...

The floor I work on is a Tele Floor but we specialize in Liver/Kidey Trasplants and VATS. We have to be ACLS certified too. I love my floor and its a great stepping stone to ICU and critical care. I kno you're gonna love the floor.

thx for the help ..but how much does an RN make? cause im an RN lol thank you though for the help.

alrite folks, I need to vent right now..hope you guys can make me feel better I've been an RN already for 7 months.. I'm on a telemetry floor, but our specialty is that we get fresh kidney/liver transplants, and thoracic patients. So I've been on my...

hey I'm a new grad RN starting at Cedar Sinai medical Center in Los angeles. I was wondering if there is any other New Grad RN's that are starting next monday July 7th. Just wanted to know if theres any here and probably just wanted to say hi and e...

just took it. I went 125. had SATA's, 2 med maths, hot spot for ekg's, put in priority order (using all options) and alot of delegations and prioritizing. And I don't know how I did. It tested me up the wazoo with pharm pharm pharm, not to mentio...

I took the RN boards 2 weeks ago, same with you I was around 122-124. I had alot of drug calcs for some reason, and I knew I got the last question right which was a pharm priority question. and I passed!! So hey man if you sound like we're on the ...

glamgal, it depends on what type of med teaching. If it just says what do you teach the patient about taking the med, then its just normal side effect of the medication. But if its specifically asking ," What is the priority follow up, or what is e...

SATA's for s/sx's are hard, I had about 10-12. Did u have infection control about like what to do to decrease risk, or like just stopping infection? Infection control are hard. Med teaching are hard if you dont kno the meds, but you cant remember ...

also, I stopped using Maslow and abc's when it comes to the most unstable patient, I use TRIAGE (Trauma, respiratory, Increased intracranial pressure, infection, GI upper, Elimination Lower GI) i was able to use that better cause im not really good u...

I believe u did ok clara. Just remember, even if u did get basic nursing questions, you were asked that to get back up to passing level. You did get some SATA's too. So dont worry about it. I'm praying you did ok. I had alot of infection control...

This is for the RN right? Well I used Saunders and their cd for the NCLEX RN, and I passed. It works. So as long as you keep up with questions (I did like 100-200 a day for a month) that should be more than enough questions for you to do really we...

hey clara, just wanted to say good luck on the test tomorrow. I can make you feel better. watch this, I took the qtrainer 7 the day before the day before the test>LOL and I scored a 64%. You scored a 67% and thats pretty damn good. I hope y...

well maybe you know a friend of mine, her name is Maritess. Well I went to both. I went to chalon and went there the first 3 years, but I didnt do well in Peds, so I just finished up at Doheny. But yea Tess's boyfriend Ryan took it took it last ye...

well my interviews are both in the ICU and Cardiac Telemetry. So its like I'll just pick whats the best. One thing thats pretty cool, when you find out that you passed, It'll be hard for you to sleep that same day, cause I found out I passed like i...

those are pretty good scores. I got only a 61 in the readiness test. But my last qtrainer was 72. You've studied pretty damn hard cause your scores reflect it. I've known people who got 40's on their qbanks and qtrainers but passed still. So jus...

hell yeah I was nervous!! LOL. Did you graduated this year or last year? My girlfriend graduated this year, her name was michelle (maybe you know her). I wished I passed last year, I had a job lined up in the ICU at UCLA. I'm probably gonna work ...

I know how you feel Claralon. For me I graduated in 2007 from mount Saint mary's in los angeles. And I couldve been an RN already last year, but I didn't pass it twice. The third time I did everything, read Kaplan and Saunders. Did all the questi...

I took my test this Monday June 16. I woke up early on June 19 which was Thursday, and I checked the BRN website. My name was on it already, 3 days (if you count the first day I took it = 3). So I know it's random for some, but suzanne's right. A...

I took the exam on Monday, June 16. After 125 questions, delegations/priorities, SATA's Pharms hot spots, put in order. And after waiting 2 days, I woke up this morning and went to the California BRN website, and lo and behold, at 4:30 am, I AM OFF...
