  1. Highest Troponin Levels You've Seen?

    MOGA replied to Dogstar's topic in CCU, Coronary, Cardiac

    > 900. I didn't believe it. MD said it was the biggest MI he'd ever seen. Not so good of a prognosis,

  2. New Grad Milestones

    MOGA replied to emtb2rn's topic in First Year After Licensure

    LOL! That was totally me the other day! It's really scary when they say, "This feels JUST like my last heart attack."

  3. Georgia BON

    MOGA replied to RN4life#1's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I was posted today! I took my NCLEX right at 3 weeks ago. Any luck on yours yet,

  4. Georgia BON

    MOGA replied to RN4life#1's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I, too, am waiting to be posted. A friend was posted in a couple of weeks, so I'm hoping I'll have mine soon. How long has it been since you took

  5. Anyone else start in tele?

    MOGA posted a topic in Cardiac

    Anyone else start as a new grad on a telemetry/cardiac stepdown unit? I'm a more than a bit nervous, but really excited. I'll be doing a residency program. Any

  6. First Job

    MOGA replied to Nurse 2009's topic in First Year After Licensure

    That's amazing. It's wonderful to see those miracles and recoveries. I, too, am a new grad from December, so I know what you mean by wanting to get out there and do

  7. Not allowed to tape nursing lectures

    MOGA replied to Amy'sGrandbaby's topic in General Students

    I understand the argument about being clear on what will be on exams, but I look at it this way. We're learning how to care for patients. Just because the professor says this item will not be on the...

  8. Anyone else start in tele?

    MOGA replied to MOGA's topic in Cardiac

    Hey guys, Thanks for all your encouragement and words of wisdom. I'm loving everything so far. I just passed NCLEX (yay!) so when I post to the BON I will be able to start functioning as an RN. I have...

  9. Not allowed to tape nursing lectures

    MOGA replied to Amy'sGrandbaby's topic in General Students

    I just wouldn't be surprised if there were some ramifications if you were found out, even as discrete as you are. If you really thought it was totally okay you wouldn't be hiding it. Why hide it if...

  10. Not allowed to tape nursing lectures

    MOGA replied to Amy'sGrandbaby's topic in General Students

    Aside from all the legality of recording someone against their will and without their knowledge (it's essentially wire-tapping...ask the government if that has ever gotten them in trouble), think...

  11. Has anyone ever?

    MOGA replied to youneek28's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I have just taken one course at another school because it was offered when I needed it. But you have to make sure it will transfer. Get permission from your original school to be a transient student...

  12. Best LPN-RN Nursing Programs in Georgia

    MOGA replied to LPN2RN2B's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I did go there, but I didn't go through the bridge program because I wasn't an LPN before. There isn't a waitlist that I know of, per se, because you are admitted based on GPA. How ever many they are...

  13. New grad nurse training

    MOGA replied to eflr's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I believe Emory has a good new grad program...competitive, but good. Another good one I have heard of is Northside. If your last semester of your program is anything like mine, you will get more...

  14. New grad need help in deciding where to start career!

    MOGA replied to oolilxminnieoo's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Congrats on getting not one, but two offers! Are they both in the same unit, such as both in med-surg, or are they different units? If they are different units, which one do you feel more passionate...

  15. Persistent Nurse Recruiters?

    MOGA replied to Jo Dirt's topic in General Nursing

    I don't mind persistent...it just seems like there comes a point when it becomes excessive. It turned me off to the

  16. Persistent Nurse Recruiters?

    MOGA replied to Jo Dirt's topic in General Nursing

    I had a recruiter call me constantly, back-to-back, 4 or 5 times. I mean call, let it ring, hang up, call back. I had class all day, and was on my lunch break. We were in a noisely locale, so I...

  17. Anyone else start in tele?

    MOGA replied to MOGA's topic in Cardiac

    I'm really excited about it. For the first month until I take boards, I will be a PCT. GA BON doesn't offer a GN status like some states. Other than that there are classes, online content, and weekly...

  18. Any Direct Entry NP programs that will take a non-RN with a BS from another field

    MOGA replied to Teapot12345's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I stand corrected. Thanks UVA Grad

  19. Any Direct Entry NP programs that will take a non-RN with a BS from another field

    MOGA replied to Teapot12345's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I highly doubt it. Most, if not all, require an active RN license, usually from the state where the college is. I don't know how I would know I wanted to be an NP without becoming an RN first. Some...

  20. Anyone else start in tele?

    MOGA replied to MOGA's topic in Cardiac

    Thanks all! The residency program at my facility is basically about 6 months of preceptorship, classes, and other things to help new graduates or nurses transitioning into a new unit. You can rotate...

  21. Best LPN-RN Nursing Programs in Georgia

    MOGA replied to LPN2RN2B's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Abraham Baldwin College in Tifton has a bridge program. I know their ADN program is challenging, but

  22. Immunization records

    MOGA replied to bluerave's topic in Georgia Nursing

    You can try your local health department. They usually have access to your immunization

  23. Let's introduce ourselves...

    MOGA replied to pedi-RN's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Hi Everyone! I graduated yesterday, and I still have to take NCLEX. I start after the first of the year in a cardiac stepdown unit. I am so excited, but
