    Correct. On azbn.gov anyone can look you and your # up. It's all public info so any employer can just search under your name and know if you have your license. You don't need the

    When you go in to take your final someone will come in and talk to you about the boards. They have scheduled dates for your class or you can take it somewhere else but I recommend taking it at RSAA. I...

    I did a few baths by myself the first day but mostly I did vitals, passed trays, fed a few people, collected trays, helped change a few briefs, changed a very large & vomiting woman's clothes,...

    We had a large group so we were split up and went to 3 different places. I was at Mi Casa on Power & Baywood. Clinicals were ok. MUCH different than what we learned in class but definitely great...

    sbenning5 replied to JessLP's topic in Arizona Nursing

    LOL, I'm curious in a good way. The program was fine, I just wish we would have spent more time doing skills than going over what was in the book. You may have a different teacher though. Over all the...

  12. Skills question

    sbenning5 replied to kb514's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I don't know if this helps or not but the way we had to do it was (here in AZ)- Knock on the door, greet resident, state that we would wash our hands, explain the procedure, identify that we had the...

  16. Question about pay

    sbenning5 posted a topic in Arizona Nursing

    I hope it wasn't asked already but if it was could someone point me to the thread? Anyway - when you work 36 hours a week do you get paid for 36 or are you paid for 40? I have heard conflicting...

  22. L&D nurses? Are you all for natural births?

    sbenning5 replied to MIcrunchyRN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I'm not an L&D nurse yet but I just had to reply. Your first nurse sounds terrible! Holy Cow - I'm sorry you had to deal with that. When I become an L&D nurse I hope that I can let the...

  23. Other people's ?s about your salary...

    sbenning5 replied to eager1hasbegun's topic in General Nursing

    One thing I notice is that it's all perspective. Some people will think that $55K is a TON of $$ and others think it's pocket change. I'd just say I make enough that we can afford a few luxuries but...
