Holmes regional hires new grads. They have a gn program, I'm not sure how often but we have 2 on my unit. Parrish has a GN program as well. Now, cape canaveral, Holmes, palm bay, and Viera hospital are all owned by the same company. Health-first....

Lol! Now that's funny

Who said it was a joke?

What schools serve (in my area anyway) aren't the healthiest. Believe me, what I pack my kids is way healthier that the crap they serve.

Will ICU or CCU experience help one get into the NICU?

Thank u, hushy. That's all very good, I could say that in interviews when asked what I plan on doing in the future. They seem to always ask that.

I think she Is trying to get L&D experience. Good question. My guess is if they don't use CNMs you may just leave that out.

I understandabout the family distant thing. My husband is military so I don't have any family near me either. I just applied to the program and we will see how it goes:). Best of luck to u!

I think it all depends on your support system. For day time calls you could have a daycare that allows drop ins. At night, won't your husband be home? Or some friends or family? It can be done:). Good luck!

So jealous!! That is why I went to nursing school in the first place, and after almost 2 years since graduating I still can't get in there:(. You can do it, get in there ask tons of questions and do your best:).

You have to have one year as a RN

I've always bought my own scrubs as well. Never been compensated either. I don't understand why having RN on your top would be offensive. It's your title, what you are. It's what you worked so hard for in school. Wear it proudly:)

I'm down in the Melbourne area. Sorry I can't be of help for jax area. Are u military as well?

Hello all. I graduated nursing school last year an have always wanted to continue on to CNM. I am interested in Frontier college. It has A great rep and it would fit my life best b/c I am a military wife. My question is is it possible to work, an...

I graduated in May 2009 and I have to say the market sucks! The majority of the people I went to school with ended up working in SNF's Or LTCs. A very lucky few got into the hospitals. Noone would hire us "New Grads". There were many hospital posi...

if you are trying for the midwife school, it looks like they are still accepting apps for class 82 and 84

It's not only my experience that I am speaking.

I am so sick of hearing how the economy is to blame for newer nurses not being able to get jobs. I know that the economy isn't in a good place but there are always nursing jobs available. I had applied in November (ish) for a job in the mother/baby...

Hire the new grads!!

This is just disturbing on so many levels!!

I used Saunders and the school I went to had the NCLEX 4000 program there. I also went to the Hurst Review which I loved!!

Good luck to you. Stay positive and remember if you did not pass, at least you now know what to expect.

Thank you:) I appreciate that! I am thinking of applying for next year. Get one more year of nursing under my belt. My family have been great with me. I have two kids 13 and 6 years old. I couldn't ask for a better husband who would tell me to ...
