  1. Phoenix Children's

    yelnikmcwawa posted a topic in Arizona Nursing

    Hi there. Does anyone know if Phoenix Children's plans on running a New Grad program for the December graduates? I called their HR and some guy told me that he didn't know and I should just watch the...

  3. New entry-level Masters program at U of A!!

    yelnikmcwawa replied to Cid13's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Rachel, you being a chiropractor, have all the ability to get through this program, even if it will be disorganized and chaotic. You want your degree and this program will give it to you in a...

  4. NAU accelerated Nursing 2010

    yelnikmcwawa replied to Lildee's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Hi Rachel, good luck with your endeavours! I am assuming that since you are a chiropractor, you are entering the nursing field to become an NP rather than an RN. So yeah, U of A's MEPN would be a much...

  5. The HRSA Nursing Scholarship

    yelnikmcwawa replied to Rags2Riches RN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm fairly certian that the NSP scholarship spkoen about inthis thread is for undergraduate degrees only, so the CRNA degree would not qualify for it. But, HRSA does have some graduate loan programs,...

  6. MSN to PNP certificate

    yelnikmcwawa replied to yelnikmcwawa's topic in Post Graduate Students

    UVA, thanks for the input! That's exactly the kind of info I'm asking about...what parts of the puzzle am I not seeing yet. It's crazy how a plan can look so good but once you get yourself into it,...

  7. MSN to PNP certificate

    yelnikmcwawa posted a topic in Post Graduate Students

    I graduate this december with a BSN and start night shift on a neuro med surge floor in January. I know for sure that I want to become a Pediatric NP, and I want to get going on it sooner than later....

  8. PNP pathway options

    yelnikmcwawa posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    So, my ultimate goal is Pediatric Nurse Practitioner. I am graduating with my BSN this December, but I am already in my mid thirties, graduated with my first degree years ago, and have held a long...

  9. PNP pathway options

    yelnikmcwawa replied to yelnikmcwawa's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I will consider many options! I want to keep my eyes peeled for options that will help me reach my goals but still allow me my sanity and time with my family. I don't want my son to be an adult and...

  10. Where are the "normal" births?

    yelnikmcwawa replied to what2donow's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Ruralnrse, you make many valid points. And yes, there are many women out there who do not have any interest in knowing what it feels like to give birth. However, I cannot even tell you how many women...

  11. Where are the "normal" births?

    yelnikmcwawa replied to what2donow's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Don't wanna hijack your thread because I'm not a CNM, but when I was pregnant, I just "knew" that if I stepped foot in a hospital I would not get the kind of birth I wanted. Healthy women are not...

  12. Do you go to work when you're sick?

    yelnikmcwawa replied to BCgradnurse's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I have an NP friend who goes to work when sick...even with a fever. I said shame on her, and she said, "I prefer to use my sick days for when I'm not sick. Why ruin perfectly good time off from work...

  13. Pay rate

    yelnikmcwawa posted a topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'm totally new to this, as I gradute this December with my BSN. Anyway, I just had my very first RN interview for the New Grad program at Mayo. I was told the pay rate after passing NCLEX and up to...

    yelnikmcwawa replied to yelnikmcwawa's topic in Arizona Nursing

    wait a minute...am i on candid camera??? seriously, though, i don't understand your comment because my first snippyness was directed at dorimar because she didn't answer my question, but instead...

  16. new grad programs in AZ?

    yelnikmcwawa replied to funrunner04's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Good luck! New grad jobs are hard to find here, too. Mayo's application cycle has ended, Scottsdale is only taking internal applicants, Banner isn't touching new grads at all I hear, and I'm waiting...

  17. Pay rate

    yelnikmcwawa replied to yelnikmcwawa's topic in Arizona Nursing

    :rotfl: Hilarious! I mean, would any of us seriously act like this face to face and in public??? Dorimar, I was asking a real question and just didn't care to have you butt into my thread with your...

  18. To apply to NP programs now, or later...that is the question.

    yelnikmcwawa replied to yelnikmcwawa's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Thanks for the info

  19. Pay rate

    yelnikmcwawa replied to yelnikmcwawa's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Dorimar did not answer my question and instead patronized me with a comment about "why does everyone think that nurses make so much money???" That comment had no relevance to what I was asking in my...

  20. Pay rate

    yelnikmcwawa replied to yelnikmcwawa's topic in Arizona Nursing

    From an insider's perspective, dorimar didn't answer my question at all and instead, started her thread with "why does everyone think that nurses make so much money???" That seems to me like she was...

  21. Pay rate

    yelnikmcwawa replied to yelnikmcwawa's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I just KNEW it was a matter of time before someone turned this into another one of those "going into nursing for the money" posts! For Pete's sake...I am merely asking how much the other local...

  22. Pay rate

    yelnikmcwawa replied to yelnikmcwawa's topic in Arizona Nursing

    No, I'm not fortunate...I've worked my ass off, made straight A's, have graduated from college with 2 different degrees, have worked hard at a current career I love, have built a strong and solid...

  23. Pay rate

    yelnikmcwawa replied to yelnikmcwawa's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Thank you, Hoozdo. While I'm not thrilled with the pay (I make almost that already with my current career), it is nice to know how it compares to other hospitals. I can do anything for a year, just to...

  24. Pay rate

    yelnikmcwawa replied to yelnikmcwawa's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I didn't say "thought", I said "was hoping". I am asking what other hospitals typically pay for new grads and whether or not $28.39 seems low or not. I'm in Central Phoenix. Anyone
