  4. NMC Test Online

    I finally passed the NMC RN1 test, which I was sure I wouldn't since I only do NICU nursing and not adult nursing. Anyway, I am wondering what the next step will be? Visa? OSCE? I wish there was a...
  5. Road to NMC Registration

    I'm having a similar problem. However, they do answer for me; you just have to call during UK business hours. What happens is they reset my account and I can log in once and then I have the same error...
  6. NMC Test Online

    Hello, again. I ended up going round about to find my results the following day and found out I did not pass. Its super frustrating because my recruiter said nothing about reading the Royal Marsden or...
  7. NMC Test Online

    I am incredibly frustrated working with the NMC. First they had technical difficulties that lasted weeks to repair before I could be approved to take the competence exam through Pearsonvue. Now that...
  8. UK NICU?

    No, don't feel bad, this is actually really helpful. Do the units have respiratory therapists? Are your shifts 12 hours? Are there private rooms or mostly still open bay style units? Do you...
  9. I have done 2 interviews for my local NICU for an RN position (there is only one in the area and I don't have the ability to move) and I don't know what I am doing wrong. The first time, I already...
  10. Arkansas student wanting to move to Alaska

    It is difficult to find a new grad job in Anchorage (and honestly, everywhere in AK) right now. Believe me, I am looking. Its not impossible, but very difficult. Besides that, Alaskan graduates...
  11. NICUs in Alaska

    Alaska Regional and the Native hospital both have very low quality NICU's in the sense that they are not level III and it is almost laughable to even say they qualify as level II. Almost all level II...
  12. So I took the in-class Kaplan course and I am steadily making my way through the accompanying textbook, online content, QBanks, and trainers. I was wondering if that is enough or if I should be...
  13. NICU nurse with no experience?

    Well, I don't need a position until after August of 2009 because thats when I graduate from my program. Maybe this is too much to ask, but would you mind asking your mom more about it? When they...
  14. I am currently a nursing student, but I plan on moving to the Seattle/Tacoma/Puyallup area after I graduate with my BSN. I was wondering if anyone can recommend any great hospitals with NICU's that...
  15. Extership in the NICU

    What is the nurse externship like at your NICU? Have you noticed any nurses being hired who have taken the externship either at your hospital or another hospital? What about graduate nurses that...
  16. I have a choice of receiving an externship or remaining at my current job and I need some help! My current job allows me to study, which I doubt the extership will allow. The extership however will...
  17. Anyone here plan on a PhD,DNP, etc...?

    Yah, my current nursing professor stated that if I planned on going for my NP that I should instead go for my DNP because the NP will be obsolete by 2015. She said that the ANNP (?) is still deciding...

  19. Anyone here plan on a PhD,DNP, etc...?

    At first, I was only planning on getting a neonatal NP but I recently found out that by 2015 all NP programs will be obsolete and the DNP will be put in its place. So, now I am planning on getting a...
  20. NNP - advice?

    I want to be a neonatal nurse practitioner as well, but with a Doctoral in Nurse Practitioning (DNP). I have been researching it a fair bit, and from what I can tell many schools require two years of...
