  1. Are you a new informatics nurse?

    BelleP replied to InformaticsRN.MA's topic in Nursing Informatics

    Congratulations!!! I heard about Meditech being a bit "unwieldy" I guess but that is from an end user's perspective. Good

  2. Are you a new informatics nurse?

    BelleP replied to InformaticsRN.MA's topic in Nursing Informatics

    JUST got hired today! My start date is on October 20th and I am so excited. MSN next year is the plan. Yes I would love to be part of this group! It took me a year of patience and persistence but I...

  3. Are you a new informatics nurse?

    BelleP replied to InformaticsRN.MA's topic in Nursing Informatics

    Count me in! I am a floor nurse but hoping to transition to NI. Very difficult in my rural area but I am trying not to lose hope. I have participated in a GoLive at my current facility as a...

  4. Any tips for Certified Epic Trainer?

    BelleP posted a topic in Nursing Informatics

    Hi everyone! I got selected at work to be trained as a certified trainer at the end of July (two weeks). We are about to transition to Epic and a lot of other bigger facilities in my network have...

  5. Organizing and prioritizing tip for a new grad

    BelleP replied to apostolic4eva's topic in Medical-Surgical

    I always come in early so I have time to get ready before report. We just switched over to a new system so we had to get acclimated a bit to workflow adjustments. I generally look up meds, h&p's,...

  6. Online RN-BSN with no math?

    BelleP replied to Streetrod's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I took mine through Ferris State. You could possibly take a math class online if it is required though through them and generally BSN would require a statistics class, which means you have to take an...

  7. Any tips for Certified Epic Trainer?

    BelleP replied to BelleP's topic in Nursing Informatics

  9. what do you talk about at work?

    BelleP replied to nola1202's topic in General Nursing

    I'm probably one of the "quiet kids" at work and I am fairly new. People seem to talk a lot about their kids (e.g. graduation, college, prom etc.), food/recipes, diets and trips. Since it is a...

  10. How far will you travel to work?

    BelleP replied to RainMom's topic in First Year After Licensure

    About an hour away with no traffic. The drive is easy but tough in the winter time, tougher after a midnight

    BelleP replied to Palliative Care, DNP's topic in General Nursing

    Congratulations!

  12. How Far Do You Travel For Work?

    BelleP replied to sweetsleep28's topic in General Nursing

    I travel 55 miles one way to where I work. I love my workplace but with winter time looming ahead, I am not all that excited about trying to finish up a noc shift and driving in the snow. There is a...

  13. Med-Surg Roll Call

    BelleP replied to RNPATL's topic in Medical-Surgical

    New grad (December - RN), passed my boards last March, but I worked as an LPN at a skilled nursing home before being hired for Med/Surg/Peds as an RN last May. I was a teacher for 13+ years before I...

  14. Did any of you NOT take a NCLEX prep course??

    BelleP replied to Zookeeper44's topic in General Nursing

    No prep course. I just used the Saunders book. Passed with 75 questions. In my graduating class, I think only one person failed the NCLEX - RN (as far as I know), and most of us have RN jobs right now...

    BelleP replied to pinkpaperdoll's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I took the NCLEX - RN Thursday am. I felt like I passed. When I got home, I checked PVT and I got the "good" pop up. I really hope its all true, but I am nervous about the possibility that I failed....

  17. Illinois Masonic RN residency

    BelleP posted a topic in Illinois Nursing

    Hello all. I looked at the site for RN residency information and I know that it is now open for applications for the February cohort. I would love to apply for this but I won't have my license by the...

  18. Illinois Masonic RN residency

    BelleP replied to BelleP's topic in Illinois Nursing

    Thanks! And yes, the situation isn't all that promising here either, but oh

  19. Illinois Masonic RN residency

    BelleP replied to BelleP's topic in Illinois Nursing

    The last class before mine had a tough time scheduling their board exams. I would love to apply for this for the February cohort. December 17th is my last day and I am hoping to take the boards as...

  20. Medication error

    BelleP replied to vetvet13's topic in General Nursing

    At our facility, we do have that hour window before and after and unless you have a wing and 3/4 (which would be almost forty people), you really "only" have 23+ people. What I try to do before I...

  21. Pearsonvue Trick Is this TRUE? Does it work every time?

    BelleP replied to brichielpn08's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    The trick worked for me, my classmate who took it with me, and another classmate who took it a few days after we did. Now I personally do not know anyone who actually reached the CC page

  24. Pearsonvue Trick Is this TRUE? Does it work every time?

    BelleP replied to brichielpn08's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Of course I am sitting here, stalking the pearson vue web site as well as MIBoN! I am so anxious! I suppose the soonest time to find out is tomorrow (quick results) but the wait is

  25. Pearsonvue Trick Is this TRUE? Does it work every time?

    BelleP replied to brichielpn08's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    My friend tried the PVT as well and he got the pop up too. I am hoping that we both passed. We made a "pact" that if we pass, we will do it exactly the same way for our RN boards. I am stalking this...
