    oneLoneNurse replied to overtonis's topic in Nursing Informatics

    I think your chances are 100%. I am just finishing off a 5 months contract, but am starting permanent full time in Meditech on April 8th. I don't have the skills I would like from my first exposure to...

    oneLoneNurse replied to informaticsRN2B's topic in Nursing Informatics

    I am learning how to build, and found it somewhat difficult. I didn't get the knowledge in a nice one session sit down. I am doing PCM building, and it took me forever to actually get it. I know that...

  3. Nursing Informatics Masters - should I take the plunge?

    oneLoneNurse replied to overtonis's topic in Nursing Informatics

    Thanks for the input, Chuck. I enrolled in the course, but with a new job, new country (home), and stressors I withdrew. Thing is they only charged me $100.00 for the withdraw and I can always enroll...

    oneLoneNurse replied to neurontin's topic in CCU, Coronary, Cardiac

    I liked Esme12's response. I would have called. I would have taken the slack from the doc. If he/she wants to write me up, let them. As one previous poster said, 'you can't be sued for calling a doc,...

  7. WGU MSN in 6 months

    oneLoneNurse replied to bsnwnab's topic in Western Governors University

    I don' t think so, klone. I think what Mary is implying is that the capstone is a quantitative versus qualitative assignment. I think the capstone is requesting we do a literature search, then create...

  11. WGU MSN in 6 months

    oneLoneNurse replied to bsnwnab's topic in Western Governors University

    How long does it have to be? I'm assuming we would have to do a lit review then some sort of experiment. I see capstones at other schools too. I like WGU. I like the location, and whether or not the...

    oneLoneNurse replied to overtonis's topic in Nursing Informatics

    Carl, Great to see your post. I have just relocated from Philadelphia to the burbs of Toronto to work with Meditech. I have over 9 years in healthcare IT. I don't think a Masters in Informatics is...
