  1. CA BRN New Requirements For NCLEX RN international students

    Mobiusrain replied to brooklyn03's topic in Nurse Registration

  2. CA BRN New Requirements For NCLEX RN international students

    Mobiusrain replied to brooklyn03's topic in Nurse Registration

  3. CA BRN New Requirements For NCLEX RN international students

    Mobiusrain replied to brooklyn03's topic in Nurse Registration

    Like others have said, there are many other states you can apply to, although you will have to go through more hoops such as CGFNS, TOEFL, etc. Or you can apply as LVN if moving out of state is not an...

  4. CA BRN New Requirements For NCLEX RN international students

    Mobiusrain replied to brooklyn03's topic in Nurse Registration

  5. CA BRN New Requirements For NCLEX RN international students

    Mobiusrain replied to brooklyn03's topic in Nurse Registration

  8. Why is LTC so hated

    Mobiusrain replied to MadameFreckles's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Turnover rate for nurses in LTC is relatively higher than nursing positions in acute/hospital settings, so newgrads are hired easily in LTC. Newgrad/no experience RNs here in the Bay Area start at...

  9. Why is LTC so hated

    Mobiusrain replied to MadameFreckles's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    I'm one of the posters who gave kudos to DNS on the go's post. I was so immersed with many of the points made and how much of them held true to my situation and how I felt. I must have overlooked the...

  10. Why is LTC so hated

    Mobiusrain replied to MadameFreckles's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    After being stuck with LTC for more than 2 years, all I could say is that i really do hate it! When I first started, I was oriented for about 5 days and then was put on the floor right after to fend...

  11. LTC Nursing...Who likes it, who doesn't?

    Mobiusrain replied to Julz034's topic in General Nursing

    I have to agree with that. I'm currently working as an RN in a LTC facility because I have no choice at the moment. I'm still looking hard for hospitals that are willing to train because I don't want...

    Mobiusrain replied to evilolive's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    I'm only on my 2nd day in LTC and I can already feel the burn . 4 days of orientation definitely isn't enough! My whole 8 hour shift is mostly med pass, can't even get to documentation and summaries...

  15. Any advice for a New nurse starting in LTC??

    Mobiusrain replied to katbird21's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Ask, ask, and ask. I'm a new RN myself who just started in LTC. I was oriented 4 days and now I just finished my 2nd day on the floor by myself...I take so long on med pass that I need to take 2 extra...

  19. Took nclex rn on 7th of january 2009 still waiting

    Mobiusrain replied to dream1987's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Never assume anything until you get the official results. The wait is the worst thing for any NCLEX taker, so just hang in there. While many have seen their name on the site on the 3rd day (me...

    Mobiusrain replied to bhevy's topic in International Nursing

  23. Need some serious advice

    Mobiusrain replied to RN2783's topic in International Nursing

    I feel your pain... The Bay Area is a bad place to be right now for a new grad nurse, especially a foreign-trained new grad nurse. I graduated in the Philippines last April and became an RN last...

  24. How much time? CA BRN

    Mobiusrain replied to woknblues's topic in International Nursing

    Yup, newgrads (especially foreign-trained newgrads) have it tough out here in California in the midst of this budget crisis. Most hospitals are on hiring freezes at the moment in the Bay Area, might...
