  3. I will be an RN after school. I'm going to be very careful about my license and there is an experience nurse there too. The doc is very experienced and credentialed but I will definitely be asking...
  4. @Keepermom, he specializes in rhinoplasty, liposuction, face lifts and injectables so I don't think I'll take up any free procedure deals in the near future hehe. Maybe in 20 years
  5. If I did an internship there over the summer and winter breaks, do you think it will count as internship experience for when I write my new grad resume? Would a hospital count that as a real...
  6. Thanks everyone! I'm pretty excited now! I didn't know it counted as real OR experience. I hadn't been thinking about advanced practice but I could get interested in the
  7. I also have the option of working there as an assistant over the summer (I could now but it's in LA and I'm in Sacramento). I'm just worried that I'll never get to break into bedside nursing if I...
  8. How was your Externship ?

    Are externships usually posted online on the website, or should I call around to see who is offering one during summer? And is it only during summer?

    I don't see how assessing a classmate is "ghetto." I haven't started my program but a friend who is a few semesters ahead of me in the same program told me that the most involved we get is giving each...
  15. Backstabbing/Gossip in Nursing School

    You're in nursing school for yourself. Just smile and be kind, telling the department will just make it worse. It's all part of life. I wouldn't call it a clique, but I was part of a tight group of...

    The amount you give/ the value of the gift I think depends on how close you are to your preceptor. I think it would be nice to go through a site like allheart.com or another site that specializes in...
  20. My school had us do it about a month ago and I start in mid-August. I don't think they'd make you do it over again before the semester starts, although I don't know about testing while in the program....
  21. Kpatterson- I also hear that Kaiser is a very desirable employer that pays well because of union. I'm sure that by doing clinicals there you get a good chance of being hired there. Maybe if it's a...
