  1. What is the silliest thing you've heard a nurse say?

    herowneulogy replied to anonymous1919's topic in General Nursing

    Re: the OP's 2 accounts: I'm just glad that the nurses thought to ask/verify before actually giving the meds. Think of all those that do not obtain a second opinion or ask for help before...

    herowneulogy replied to HCstudent's topic in New York Nursing

    Sorry about this. When I responded before, it was during the wee hours of the morning....sometimes things start to look different, I thought you wrote Fall 2011. No idea why they are not admitting...

  9. Mount Sinai.....Getting a foot in the door

    herowneulogy replied to herowneulogy's topic in New York Nursing

    One would hope! They should be sniveling; they are not doing their jobs at all. I'm supposed to be well-versed in customer service etiquette as a nurse, and yet the nurse recruiters aren't? Please! I...

  10. hunter college-nursing school

    herowneulogy replied to HCstudent's topic in New York Nursing

    @goofina, they should accept you (assuming that your GPA and NLN score are good) even if you are taking a course-in-progress. Make sure you complete all of your Pluralism and Diversity and...

  12. Mount Sinai.....Getting a foot in the door

    herowneulogy replied to herowneulogy's topic in New York Nursing

    @laynaER, Wow that's terrible. You said the recruiter took your transcript, I'm assuming you're a new grad, yes? I had no idea they wanted transcripts, although I guess that should have been obvious....

  13. NYU ABSN program... feeling a little discouraged

  17. Mount Sinai.....Getting a foot in the door

    herowneulogy replied to herowneulogy's topic in New York Nursing

    I was going to say basically what fawnsternurse stated: Be careful in those agency jobs. My old program director was opposed the idea of me going to work for them (she's like a mentor to me as well)....

  18. how long does it take to see your name on ny-bon website after taking the nclex?

    herowneulogy replied to zackxylon's topic in New York Nursing

    Congratulations darling!! I think my name was up after a week. Then again, I didn't check before then, waited until my license and registration arrived in the mail. Give it some time. NYSBON is...

  19. salary expectations of a new grad in CT

    herowneulogy replied to raygun354's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    The OP is doing 32 hours, only 4 away from being considered full-time. That is too low in my opinion. I have a bachelor's in psychology and in nursing; without the latter, I can get a job for 37K....

    herowneulogy replied to skny's topic in New York Nursing

    First, I want to say, YOU ARE NOT A LOSER!! The market is tough, trust me, I am in the same boat: graduated in September 2010, took the NCLEX at the end of November, and I'm looking for a job. Several...
