I worked as a CNA while in nursing school, then when I graduated I smiley transferred departments into a nursing role with only needing to fill out a quick online application. I've never actually done a nursing resume. I find myself needing one...

Yeah I don't think I could do more than one class at a time. At least not to start with. I've been out of school long enough I'll have to get back into the swing of it. I work full time and have two kids, So i definitely envision sitting at Gymnas...

I definitely don't have trouble with the GPA requirements.

I doesn't the past couple hours reading this entire thread. I have been researching RN to BSN programs and keep coming back to this one due to the cost, no clinically, and so far my charts with the advisor have been pleasant and very informative....

I am getting the "good" pop-up doing the Pearson Vue Trick, but how long till I can get online and pay to do the Quick-Results? Is it just 48 hours total, or do they only count business days?? I took my NCLEX-RN this afternoon, and I live in FL, if ...

My faves are by far still the uniball JetStream pens. I got some of their multipens from Jetpens.com, and absolutely ADORE them! I just had to buy refills for them though. That's the only part that sucks, you have to buy refills online from Jetpen...

OMG if i lose one of my pens I can no longer focus on anything else until it is found, LOL. That being said, it is rare that my pen is anywhere except in my hand or in my pocket. Nobody borrows my nice pen. I keep a cheapy one for if someone need...

I am not a burn nurse! I need a little help, and hope someone here can give me a little insight. I work in mom/baby, so don't deal with these things! I had a run-in over the weekend with a very hot motorcycle tailpipe. Burned an area of my outer c...

OMG! Are you in my orientation!? LOL. I have someone JUST like this! LMAO. Love it!

I live in FL and many of the hospitals in the SW FL area hire new grads regularly into their internship programs.

I am a new grad and have just started my first job as an RN. I am working in OB Special Care (high Risk mom/baby, Antepartum, whatever you prefer to call it). I have only been on the floor 3 days, but I'm already feeling like I never went to school...

I agree with that plenty of people are looking up legit stuff on their phones and using them as pda's, but I think the poste meant the ones who are texting or playing games and stuff all the time

If you cannot stay awake all night, perhaps you should switch to day shift. Even when I was in class all day I managed to stay up all night. PLEASE be ready for report at 7am. Have your stuff put away and your clip board ready by then, and be done ...

I'm confused, what is wrong with braiding your hair? How is it different from pulling it back any other way? I'd rather see it up/back somehow than down and swinging into sterile fields and lord only knows what else.

I don't see how this thread is any different to the ones in the student section about things you would like to say to your instructors or fellow students. Really, calm down. It's truly just meant to vent, and there are always going to be times we a...

I agree there. those letters behind a name don't necessarily mean anything. In any field of work!

I love the Tul in the fine needle point. I have one of those refills in the Pilot Pentel Energel I just had engraved and it fits perfectly. The Pilot G2 in the micro 0.38 are also awesome if you like a super-fine line

The hospital I work for and am starting in a new positon as an Intern RN next month does a test called a PPDS for all nurses. I'm sorry, I have no idea what it stands for! They are a little vague as to what the test is like, but I have been told yo...

I would say YES. It says Preferred, not required. The worst they can do is not call you for an interview. Remember. If you don't ask/try, the answer is always no.

I don't understand why you would even want to take that risk. The company may "usually" take months to respond, but you never know. I wouldn't want to risk my career and license that I worked so hard to obtain just to not pass a simple drug test! ...

Yes, I like the 207 micro tips (0.5) as well. The Impact micro (0.38) is also nice if you need a REALLY fine line!

I know this thread is pretty old, but I am a complete pen addict and connoiseur. I honestly think I own every pen sold in the U.S. The Uniball Signo 207 or Vision RT would probably be a great replacement pen for the OP. Or if wanting to go the mo...

i'm right there with you. if i find out there is a pen or variation of a pen that i do not have already, it becomes my obsession to find it immediately! lol. i have a giant pencil-case in my locker full of pens, so i can always have a different pe...

I've developed a love for gel pens - especially micro tipped (0.38 or 0.5 mm) needle-tip pens. However, any gel pen is nice. As a graduation present to myself, I got a Pilot G2 limited and a Pentel Energel Alloy and had them engraved with my name ...

dump and run's - when family leaves a LOM/LOL who is "acting off" and leaves as quickly as possible. Often happens around holidays. ABT (arms broken too) - patient comes in for something totally unrelated to their arms/hands, but suddenly they canno...
