   They will check to make sure you are using the $ towards the loans. Do NOT apply the money towards any loans that were not included during the application process. That's just asking for

2. NELRP is there a thread?

   the1anonlycarol replied to JudithL_in_NH's topic in General Nursing

   There's no thread for NELRP participants who applied for their third year of funding/contract continuation... but I am just finishing up my two year contract at the end of this month and finally see...

3. Lining and labing in the waiting room

   the1anonlycarol replied to melimaras's topic in Emergency

   That is a major concern for us as well. If our WR patients see a midlevel provider when they are first triaged and have orders entered (labs, X-ray, etc) and end up leaving then they are marked as...

4. Lining and labing in the waiting room

   the1anonlycarol replied to melimaras's topic in Emergency

   Where I work, we sometimes have 5-6 hour waits (terrible I know). Our WR patients are never allowed to have lines and I can't think of a time I've ever medicated one. When they are first triaged, we...

7. Failed the CEN by one question. Literally.

   the1anonlycarol replied to NorthBay's topic in Emergency

   I also failed it by either one or two questions. Was so mad! Secretly blaming it on how hot the room was. There were a ton of questions for me also on triaging mass casualties... they all sounded...

   Hi Guys, I'm an NELRP Recipient from August 2010. I remember last year I got my tax form for NELRP on time, but I have not yet received it for this year. They legally have to mail them out by...

9. Online CEN resources

   the1anonlycarol replied to whichone'spink's topic in Emergency

   seeing as the CEN is only recommended for nurses who have had at least two years in the emergency department.. I'm surprised to see that your instructor is taking a majority of her questions from...

    the1anonlycarol replied to AZO49008's topic in General Nursing

    I've been working 7p - 7a for a little over a year now. I work in the ED at a level 1 trauma center so coming home exhausted is the norm. I don't have a script for Ambien, but sometimes wish I did!...
