I have applied for several new grad residencies and anticipate getting an interview in the next several days. I believe it will be a panel interview. How does one best prepare? I've researched the company so I'm okay with that. However, do they typi...

How many hours do you work? Do you get overtime or do you work a 2nd job? That is a high salary for Florida. Good for you!!

How long is your residency program for and did you have to sign a contract? If so, for how many years? That is a very good starting salary for the Tampa Bay area.

@Esme12 Thank you so much for those brain sheets. I printed and saved most of them, I like the 5pg patient tool and the report sheet tool. Thanks again a bunch!

PSA is decent. Their pay is low but it's because they are tied to Medicare/Medicaid funding which alot of their clients have. They provide decent training and if you are a new grad they are one of the few places that will take a chance on you and giv...

Please share what the reasons are? Thanks

They r legit, offer training etc but low pay

That is an extremely high salary for a new grad. Will you be on a specialty floor? That is almost $30/hr for nights!!!

Wow, that school seems to be a scam. I hope that your website is a warming to students who are so eager to get in to any nursing program that they abandon their commen sense filters. There were many red signs and bells going off. I hope that you wer...

It is challenging to find a job in the central fl area as a new grad especially if you have no experience and if you don't have a BSN. Have someone or several people look over your job. Consider all nursing jobs from clinics to hospice to nursing ho...

I don't know much about this new school but I would suggest looking on the Florida BON's website to see how other Keiser nursing programs have done regarding their NCLEX pass rate. That would be a good indicator for me. I believe that they have a ca...

this is true. What floor do you work on? are you BSN or ASN? I've heard good things about this program although I haven't heard from anyone who has graduated from the program.I like the fact that they have a learning component to the program althoug...

thank you and yes it seems that many of the tampa hospitals are moving towards hiring only bsns as new nurses. it's definitely the trend now.

I've applied and I haven't heard anything at all.

Thanks for taking the time to paint a picture of a day in your life as a tele nurse for us. You did a great job. I had these questions for you: As a new nurse on a tele floor, did you or have you done ACLS? Did you have any EKG reading experience and...

Wow! Sounds like moving to nights may be the best thing for you but it also sounds like you've learned a whole lot! As a new nurse on a tele floor, did you or have you done ACLS? Did you have any EKG reading experience and / or have you done a Basic ...

ACLS and PALS are usually cheaper than $300 each. I've seen ACLS first time takers anywhere from $150 to $180 with PALS being about $20 more YMMV I would say take them especially ACLS and PALS only if you intend to work in the ER or with peds. It lo...

I don't think that you can legitmately put that on your resume. The only time you can put it on your resume is when u are accepted and start your first term then you can list: MSN May,2016 with the anticipated completion date. Now, you can put your...

May be a dumb question but what do you learn when you take a 'fresh heart'? Are you transferring it somehwere? I'm lost here but find this thread fascinating.

I would report this place. So many labour laws were broken least of all patients were put at risk AND you were not paid. I would think that they have to pay you unless u signed some form stating you were working as a volunteer. This should not happe...

I'm sorry to hear that you had a bad experience, however, as a diabetic nurse knowing that sometimes we don't get breaks or things can go awry real fast, you really should take snacks with you and have them on your person. I'd say, have a small bag o...

Florida Board of Nursing Registration for LPN Exam $204 Pearson Vue NCLEX-PN $200 Same as for NCLEX-RN
