  1. Is "terminated" your phrasing or theirs? You made it sound as though they've fired you, but then you go on to say they "suggest" you take time to look for new employment... so which is it? If they...
  2. My Father Died Today

    I pray that God gives you the strength, comfort and peace to continue on in this difficult
  3. Job searching & looking for inside opinions

    Meg, Take it from me. Start applying in other hospitals before it's too late. I worked at Christiana for 2 years and they couldn't even offer me a job. Not even a part-time job. Nothing. A few girls...
  4. Disgusting Nurses!! SICK of my status as a CNA

    I don't think you should give up on nursing because of this. EVERYONE makes mistakes, PCTs, Nurses, Doctors... everyone. The most important thing is that you learn from your mistakes. Do you feel as...
  5. Disgusting Nurses!! SICK of my status as a CNA

    Hello, I understand how you feel, but a person is made a 1:1 for a reason and your eyes should never be off of them. You shouldn't be on the computer at all. In fact, when I worked as a PCT, the tech...
  6. Residency Program or Not?

    If you have a specific path you'd like to take, (OR, L&D, Med/Surg) the best thing to do is to apply for these programs. It's nearly impossible to get a job as a new grad without doing one of...
  7. Yikes, posts like these really scare me. I start my new job 3 weeks from Monday. Good luck, by now you are more than half way done with your shift. Let us know how it goes. I will be praying for...
  8. Can't you take Kaplan?? They refund your $$$ if you don't pass, which may be good in your case... I'm not sure if they have a time limit on when you must have graduated from school or
  9. Do you have/Can you take ACLS certification? Your hospital will more than likely pay for it. Also, there are some "Critical Care Pharm" and general CC courses that hospitals offer.. that may make you...
  10. Need advice please

    Yikes, First, 3 weeks of orientation is not nearly enough. I'm surprised that's what they offered you.... and what you accepted... and that after the 3 weeks you didn't tell your NM that you needed...
  11. I know a lot of the students in my graduating class are continuing on to get their MSNs to be NPs.... to be honest, it's kind of scary to know that these people were in my class a few months ago and...
  12. I'm not a med-surg RN but I worked as a tech on a med-surg floor for 2 years. Med-surg nurses are some of the best out there. Talk about prioritization!!!! I never thought Med-Surg to be dirty, in...
  13. It's not what you know it's Who you know......

    I think it is all about who you know.... seriously. Start networking, and possibly try to find a job on the unit you'd like to work
  14. What type of floor is ICUP?

    I'd like to know too.. I thought I knew all of the abbreviations of units. I did a google search and it seems as though ICUP stands for Intensive Care Unit patients... but this might not fit the...
  15. Area: CVICU Orientation: 6 months+ Ratio:
  16. Hi all!!! I am a May 2009 graduate. I've been on a few interviews so I've been asked the whole spectrum of questions. My first interview they asked the typical behavioral type questions, "What's been...

  21. Sorry to hear that servant. Let me tell you... had I failed, I wouldn't have been too surprised. The exam is hard! I generally don't have test anxiety but when I saw the 1st question, my mouth got...
  22. Officially an RN!!!! Saw my license today on the
  23. Is a Nclex review course really necessary?

    I passed without a review course. I had 3 books (Saunders, Exam Cram and Lippincot) and 6 CDs: NCLEX 3500, 4000, Exam Cram, Saunders, Davis's and Elsevier. I used the CDs more than the books to be...
  24. Hey ladymarfee, It's worth a shot. I know how you feel. I couldn't even bring myself to check whether or not the trick worked, because I felt as though if I saw the "payment page" I would have a break...
  25. I got the pop up, I took my test yesterday at 1:00PM... The Lord is
