    misswhitney replied to SaraFL's topic in Florida Nursing

    Based on the section you pick is the hospital you get. That is part of the choice: you can either pick based on the hospital you want to go to, or the teachers you have. I would try to go to as many...

  5. No jobs in florida for new grads

    misswhitney replied to pmeeksSN's topic in Florida Nursing

    You are just starting really to search. I know people I graduated with in August still have not even had an interview. I went on three, got two offers, one almost two months later (because I...

  6. FCCJ Summer 2010 hopefuls...

    misswhitney replied to SaraFL's topic in Florida Nursing

    As far as titers and CPR and all those things, there were people in my class (Summer of '08) who did not have them completed and/or turned in until after we started classes. So do not worry so much...

  7. Georgia graduate applying for Florida license

    misswhitney replied to Verbose14's topic in Florida Nursing

    You can take the test anywhere (I know girls who took it in GA, Ohio, etc.) and apply for state liscensure wherever you want to go. You do not have to have a GA license first and then

  8. How is the FCCJ/FSCJ RN program?

    misswhitney replied to ljonm's topic in Florida Nursing

    They are really expensive and not really worth the money. You can get a job as a tech after your first semester; all of the people I graduated with who were techs before got jobs right after...

  11. Nurse pay in Jacksonville?

    misswhitney replied to priss614's topic in Florida Nursing

    The only hospital I know of that absolutely will not take you if you do not have a BSN (or really good connections) is Flagler. I have had several friends get hired at all of the Baptist's and...

  12. Nurse pay in Jacksonville?

    misswhitney replied to priss614's topic in Florida Nursing

    Specialty pays really well, especially if you work on the weekend. Shands has a 5:1 or 6:1 patient ratio (I did my role transformation clinical there) and never saw a 4:1 ratio, except if you work...

  13. FCCJ Summer 2010 hopefuls...

    misswhitney replied to SaraFL's topic in Florida Nursing

    At the hospital I work at, there is only a 50 cent differential for BSN. And I graduated from FSCJ in August, and you can go back to get your BSN at JU as soon as 8 weeks after you graduated from...

  14. FCCJ SPRING 2010

    misswhitney replied to mydream77's topic in Florida Nursing

    As for the last answer to your question, it is at the discretion of the teacher. I had a classmate who recorded every lecture, from every teacher. You just have to ask. Unless there is some new...

  15. Please help!! Will I pass NCLEX with 50-60% on kaplan Q bank??

    I did 50 questions, timed, each time I did them and my final score was around 57%. I had 75 question, passed on my first try in just over an hour. Most of my friends were in that range as well....

    misswhitney replied to mydream77's topic in Florida Nursing

    Not to start something, but I just thought I would point out that our posts against this program was not out of hatred or bitterness. I have already graduated from the program. The government funded...

    misswhitney replied to mydream77's topic in Florida Nursing

    Ahh I saw you mention Life Uniform. That is what I meant in the original post, not lifeline lol. Sorry. You go straight into it. I know you have to go to orientation first, but I think the...

  20. FCCJ SPRING 2010

    misswhitney replied to mydream77's topic in Florida Nursing

    Yes, you only go once a week for 8 weeks, probably not even that. I think we went 5 or 6 times total first term. Second term it is a little easier if you have two. I would give you mine, except I...

    misswhitney replied to mydream77's topic in Florida Nursing

    You can order them from allheart.com or Uniform Outlet or Lifeline has them. I am not sure what side of town you are on, but I know there is one off of Blanding and there is another Uniform Outlet in...

  22. FCCJ SPRING 2010

    misswhitney replied to mydream77's topic in Florida Nursing

    Because you won't use them as often as a regular nurse and because you will probably buy new shoes for pinning, I would get something cheap, no more than $50. You can get NurseMates for that much and...

    misswhitney replied to mydream77's topic in Florida Nursing

    We aren't talking about scholarships though, we are talking about admittance to a highly competitive program. Scholarships have every right to be selective as to who gets them, but an entire...

    Calm down guys! Let's not get things out of hand. Goodness, did not mean to start a fight! But we are not condoning those who got in the regular way. They deserve to be there because they got in...
