    Should I go to WGU for my MSN?

    klone replied to Windynurse's topic in Western Governors University

    You can choose your start date, if you want to delay. I think right now they have a 1-2 month wait from when you apply to when you start

    Decreased pay during orientation?

    klone replied to blah_blah_blah's topic in General Nursing

    Yes. At a hospital at which I worked, the new grads got paid a certain rate during their residency, then their salary increased by about $2/hour after they finished the residency program. You could...

    Nursing Clogs

    klone replied to Kelley-RN's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Get patent leather shoes, and you can wipe them down regularly. I'm a huge fan of Dansko (never tried Sanitas, but I know they're very similar). I have about 8 pairs. I tried Alegria but did not find...

    I HATE that! As a former herbalist, it always pains me when people use "herbal" and "homeopathic"

    OP, this is not the first time you have posted here about posts from that forum. Generally speaking, "board dragging" is not great netiquette, and I would suggest, that if it causes you so much angst,...

    Medical Marijuana

    klone replied to TheGooch's topic in General Nursing

    I wonder how they get around that with people who grow their own plants. I have some friends who have four HUGE marijuana plants, and I know there is WAY more than an ounce of buds on those things!...

    My direct boss plans to retire next year, and wants me to take her position when she does that. I am also looking for other opportunities to present themselves within our organization, but right now...

    Hospital OB/GYN Clinic Orientation HELP

    klone replied to PlaidPaisley's topic in Ob/Gyn

    At our clinic, which sounds a lot smaller than yours, new RNs get several WEEKS of orientation. I think it's unreasonable for you to have less than at least one week at each clinic. And I agree with...

    WGU RN-BSN in 1 1/2 years??

    klone replied to paradiseboundRN's topic in Western Governors University

    I'm pretty sure mentors are "graded" on their students' attrition and uncompleted classes rate. They don't want to encourage taking additional classes unless they're very confident that you will...
