  1. Got an offer, should I accept it?

    Even if you wait for the next round of internships you will be getting the same pay. Don't wait, take the job (or look around and find a better paying position). The sooner you have RN experience, the...
  2. What Happens If the Nurse Didn't Aspirate For H1N1?

    I'm not an expert, but I would think that the vaccine would still be absorbed IM or subQ - which is the difference from aspirating and not aspirating. Are you sure she didn't aspirate? Some nurses do...
  3. Telephone interviews.

    Well, congrats! I'm a May grad and definitely wish I had looked out of state earlier, too. "to remain stationary is to rust rather than to
  4. Anyone have a good report sheet specifically for neuro?

    Could you upload the brain-sheet you have? I'm interested in what it would look like for a neuro floor . . . I tried to find some online, but only found the generic med/surg report sheets. However, I...
  5. Why is this forum so dead?

    I just accepted a job on a neuro floor and I can't wait to start. Hopefully this forum will boom . .
  6. New Grad RN-Job Interview. What to expect?

    Congratulations on landing an interview! I just had my two first interviews (I graduated in May also) and I spent awhile preparing for behavior based interview questions, which a lot of nurse...
  7. I'm relocating from Boston, starting on the 18th and I'm just now starting to look for an apartment. It'd be awesome to meet you all at
  8. Hey everyone, I just got a job offer for trauma/general surgery at BUMC in Dallas! Super excited and can't wait to move? So who's relocating and how is the process going for you?

  10. It went well I think (knock on wood). The phone interview was for a trauma/general surgery floor, where I would love to work. I have an in person interview next week for a neuro unit and I can't wait...

  12. Adirondack Community College

    Hey, I was in ACC's program for a year. DO NOT take pre-reqs here. It was horrible. The science professors failed over half the students and I was told by one instructor that it was in her contact to...
  13. Just took Nclex...again

    Keep your head up. They more "no's" you get the closer to the "yes" you are. Your nerves are probably wrecked - what have you done before the exam? Try getting a message or take a two day vacation...
  14. Annaiya, were you offered a position at Baylor? If so, what floor did you interview for? Thanks,
  15. Oh, and I don't think we are trying for the same trauma position . . . I want to get into general surgery/trauma at Dallas, I don't think it's critical care from what the recruiter has told me about...

  19. Should I stay or should I go???

    Hey Greenlight, I'm not to familiar with the GA area, but I'm a new grad RN. Have you looked into accelerated BSN programs? My friends who have ADNs are having a much harder time finding a job then...
  20. Relocating to Upstate N.Y.

    Hey BzzyBee, where in Upstate are you relocating to? You should definitely start applying long before your move. From what I remember, in CA you need your CA-RN license before you can receive job...
  21. Thanks for the responses everyone! DestinedRN09, I called all the contacts I could find within the GN job postings and finally spoke to a recruiter for the med/surg internships, then scheduled the...
  22. Congratulations to everyone who got into the GN program! I've recently applied and had a phone interview (I think I bombed the interview - pretty sure I stuttered, too). Well, anyways, is anyone...
