My friend worked at Cenntenial about 2 years ago and starting pay was $21.04. And I think about $3 extra for nights...

Well from my experience, no this is not an issue. When I graduated (along with many of my fellow classmates) I found a job immediately. I had a job offer the same week I graduated and started orientation a week later! I have been a nurse 2 years now,...

We have the same problem on my unit! Day shift does nothing but complain about how we do nothing but sit around while patients sleep which is not true because our patients seem to never sleep! Between RT going in to give breathing treatments, lab, an...

Apply at Methodist Germantown on the Telemetry floor. She loves new grads! I dont think its too early to start applying...

does anyone know what the new grad pay is at the Med? Also does the Med do loan reimbursement like Methodist and Baptist? I have a possible chance to work there but I wanted to know more about the hospital before I apply. Thanks!

Well I am graduating in May too and a friend of mine just got hired in the NICU (she says they desperately need people). The only thing is that LeBonheur will not let any new grad work until they pass boards. So I think once you pass boards you will ...

they will be under "registration status" from the spectrum website. on that page you should see your classification (junior/senior), and i think it should say "nursing" under degree/major and then your permits will be listed and u need to write down ...

I heard Nashville was like $18 plus around $4 shift diffs. In Memphis most hospital start out at $21/hr base pay then $4 shift diffs. I know Baptist here starts at $23.38 plus $4 for nights and $4.50 w/e's

Hmm lets see... 1st semester we had Health assmt lab Monday mornings, then I had to prelab at night. Tues I had clinical from 7am to 1pm then Patho from 2 to 5. Wednesday I had Health assmt (theory), Thurs mornings was Sim lab then Pharm right after ...

My friend just started working nights in the ICU here in TN and she makes $21/hr base plus $4.50 night shift and an extra $8 if she works weekends.

I replied to a similar thread a couple of months ago so I will just repost what I wrote... I attend the University of Memphis right now so I can tell u a little bit about it. 1st semester you will take Intro to Med/Surg, Skills lab, Pharmacology, Pa...

Yes I believe they have some kind of dorms because I had a friend go there and she stayed on campus. Also the entrance exam is just basic math, english, science, ect. Similar to the ACT. I don't think it's very hard!

I am interested in Pediatrics! You can't just take specific classes in the summer. If u want to take classes in the summer they make you take the entire semester. But I don't think you can take any of 1st semester classes in the summer. Most of the r...

I attend the University of Memphis right now so I can tell u a little bit about it. 1st semester you will take Intro to Med/Surg, Skills lab, Pharmacology, Patho, Health Assessment, Health Assessment lab, and a clinical. Yes this is a large load and ...

Oh come on its not THAT bad. Of course u wont like it compared to FL but I have lived here my whole life it's okay. Yes the taxes are high (but that's all of TN)...I dunno if I were you I would work at Methodist Germantown (although not really close ...

I just searched their website for jobs and it says on all the RN jobs "must have 12 months experience" or "must have 2 years experience"! Ahh! I am graduating in May 2011 and moving to Nashville. Things are not looking good for new grads...

Well the only advice I wish someone would have given me is to start studying from day 1. Study a little bit every day especially for intro to med/surg (intro to nursing). Health Assmt wasnt that hard at my school so I usally waited a few days before ...

I think Baptist hospital in Memphis will pay back your loans if you agree to work for them after graduating.

Hey just wondering if you found anything? I am moving to Clarksville in May when I graduate (my fiance is stationed in Ft. Campbell too)! But I am worried that I wont be able to find work as a new grad...How soon soon would you suggest I start applyi...

People that just graduated from my school have gotten hired quick at Methodist Germantown and St. Francis! People that had externships at Baptist (mostly Baptist students) get hired quick at Baptist. Not sure about the Med...

I go to LSON now and I am about to start the 4th semester with Med/Surg 2. You can not fast track until 2nd semester which means those 1st semester classes you listed are the only ones you could take. 1st semester was miserable for me because they cr...

I've been going back and forth all night on which is the proper nursing diagnosis for my patient. His primary medical diagnosis was "Aspiration" (difficulty swallowing and food goes into lungs...we had to put him on peg tubing) Well I'm trying to fig...

I read each diagnosis but I still seemed to have trouble. Like with the "Impaired swallowing" I wasnt sure what the r/t part could be because my teacher told me for that you just plug in the pathogenisis (of what the pmd is). But does this even make ...

I was just wondering when can you start doing externships with the hospitals and how do I go about getting one? Like how early would you suggest I apply and where? I'm about to start my 1st semester of nursing this fall and I just want to get a head...

Thanks! Well I was wondering do I need any special certification to get a CNA or PCA job?
