  1. Childens Hosptials in NYC that hire without BSN

    Nurse212 replied to MzTayTay's topic in New York Nursing

    Wrong on both accounts. NYP hires many ADN's, just simply call them and they will tell you themselves. The key is that they "PREFER" BSN nurses, but they certainly hire ADN nurses. NYU also hires...

  3. Childens Hosptials in NYC that hire without BSN

    Nurse212 replied to MzTayTay's topic in New York Nursing

    All hospitals in NYC hire ADN nurses. It's just a matter of supply and Demand. If while they are presently hiring, there are more BSN's then ADN's, they will tend to hire more on the BSN side, but...

  4. Is it Realistic???

    Nurse212 replied to Suhvannah's topic in New York Nursing

    Why SoHo? SoHo doesn't truly have a community feel to it. After 7pm or so most stores close and from then on, it's limited traffic besides tourists trying to get to their hotels. As it stands, most...

    Nurse212 replied to carlita's topic in New York Nursing

    Nurse212 replied to ERpinup's topic in New York Nursing

    Most private hospitals have PT/RN ratios ranging from 6:1 - 8:1. City hospitals usually tend to have ratios ranging from 8:1 - 10:1 (10:1 being some extreme cases for HHC hospitals that are severely...

  7. 12 hour shifts and a dog??

    Nurse212 replied to njxcrush18's topic in New York Nursing

    Dog walker... Other than that, leaving a dog locked up in a studio for 12 hours at a time is downright criminal.

  8. Nursing Layoffs!!

    Nurse212 replied to Bklyngurl's topic in New York Nursing

    Damn, that truly sucks to hear. On a reassuring note, the HHC's have finally lifted their hiring freeze due to the state budget being regulated. At least these 33 nurses have options and can try...

  11. Any nurses here work at Elmhurst Hospital in Queens??

    Nurse212 replied to Nurse212's topic in New York Nursing

    I work for a private hospital in Manhattan, but was taken back by the fact that a city/public hospital (Elmhurst) would be so disorganized. Emails and faxes sent to the recruiters office barely get...

  12. Jacobi Hospital (Bronx, NY)

    Nurse212 replied to kimaboogie00's topic in New York Nursing

    From what I understand, in most private hospitals, BSNs get 1-2K more on top of their salary, but city hospitals tend to have a flat rate for all nurses (ADN & BSN). Granted, if you start with...

  13. Jacobi Hospital (Bronx, NY)

    Nurse212 replied to kimaboogie00's topic in New York Nursing

    That seems to be what they say.. If you work 20 years at a city job (i.e. Cop, Paramedic, Firemen, City Hospital Employees etc..) you will qualify for a pension and thus would be eligible for...

  14. Jacobi Hospital (Bronx, NY)

    Nurse212 replied to kimaboogie00's topic in New York Nursing

    Jacobi is an HHC hospital. As of June 1, 2008, all HHC hsopitals will be offering their nurses a flat salary rate of $66,000 starting for day and $72,000 for nights ($6,000 differential). They also...

  15. Are online RN-to-BSN programs honored by all hospitals?

    Nurse212 posted a topic in General Nursing

    Brethren, If one attains an ADN from a community college, gets licensed by passing the NCLEX and then decides to go for their BSN in the comfort of their home through an online program as they work at...

  16. Attention weekend evening BMCC grads/nur 2,3,4 students

    Nurse212 replied to kittykat23's topic in New York Nursing

    As a BMCC NUR 4 evening student, I can tell you that, for the most part, NUR I and NUR IV are the toughest and that the best professor the school has for NURSING happens to be the chairmen herself,...

  17. So I got accepted into BMCC's EVENING Nursing Program

    Nurse212 posted a topic in New York Nursing

    Brethren, Recently, I got "the call" from the nursing department at BMCC, giving me the grand welcoming into the evening program. To say that I was excited would be an understatement, I was ecstatic...

  18. The CUNY Nursing School Survey

    Nurse212 replied to drizzle's topic in New York Nursing

    Mimine, After reading through all those links, I don't see where it states that the bill was signed into law. As it stands, it seems to have been introduced and they are looking to get it signed in...

  19. The CUNY Nursing School Survey

    Nurse212 replied to drizzle's topic in New York Nursing

    Do you have a link/reference backing up this statement? I ask, because although I have heard this statement before, it was within the context of potential legislation that MIGHT be passed, but had...

    Absolutely. I have held onto all of my pre-clinical textbooks as well as all my nursing textbooks. They serve as great reference and also provide for a great

  22. Does any A&P Stick?

    Nurse212 replied to kea6783's topic in General Nursing

    Kea, I've taken both A&P I, along with A&P II and received an "A" for both classes. I find that after a few years, you tend to forget the bulk of the information, but remember the key core...

  23. Tell me the difference between LPN & RN

    Nurse212 replied to DebbieLynne's topic in General Nursing

    Maybe just a minor difference to some, but an RN will make more money than an LPN.

  24. BMCC Students Who have Taken A&P II, who did you take/Recommend?

    Nurse212 posted a topic in New York Nursing

    Brethren of the scrubs, Like many of you here in the forums, I have found myself in that moment in time where I have to chose my A&P II professor at BMCC for the summer session. Yet, I have no...

  25. Michigan Preparing To Let Doctors Refuse To Treat Gays

    Nurse212 replied to Roy Fokker's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    There is a magical saying that should be present in the minds of all who even consider refusing to treat a person that is Gay/Lesbian or any other preference and that phrase is simple: GOD LOVES the...
