Hi everyone! I'm interested in some feedback to make changes or suggest a better system for our on call team. Our call begins 7p-7a on the weekdays and 7a-7a on the weekends. During the week our team returns to work for the 7a shift. We are clos...

NJ here. $4 an hour for duration. when called in - time and a half. minimum 3 hours. after 11am - shift diff $3 per hour when called in. don't make us jealous RN_JuJu

Hey congrats!! I am a bit confused though. Can you clarify? One term is 6 months, you had to take 37 units? Is a unit considered a credit because I see you said you had 6 classes. Also how did you finish some classes so quickly? Interested in signing...

Hello all, I am curious to see what the current pay rate is across the country so we can better prepare ourselves and negotiate better salaries! Please try to keep this poll to any graduates after 2010. Thanks! 1) State 2) Hourly Salary 3) Experience...

Nurse Beth gave you bad advice. I agree with above, school cannot change curriculum for the time period you enrolled. They can change it for incoming students but not existing. Make a stink and do not give up without a fight!

Maybe I am selfish but I do not understand why you have to give in instead of your husband for the second time. You dont mention whether his job is more income or more 'important' but it sounds like you are the one that always has to make the adjustm...

Recently landed an OR position. Orientation is approx 6 months. The unit is great. Everyone pretty much works as a team and offers lots of input/knowledge. After learning the basics we have begun double scrubbing and double circulating. I am not per...

What state and specialty?

All the orientees have brought it to the attn of the educator. We dk if anything was said but he seems slightly better. Nothing detrimental to sterile field or patient. Everyone basically sets up the same. Small differences here and there. But Comple...

I have been trying to conduct research on this topic and have found it to be very difficult, especially with a budget of under $25k. What RN-BSN online program did you attend? Was the program organized? Also was the all in total under $25k? Only info...

University of texas at arlington, wgu, fort hayes.

hi DorothyRN, any updates on the internship? would love to know how the program was and if you were hired. thanks!

Very true. It also depends on the transferred and/or proficiency credits.

Any luck? I found three others under $20k

I agree. Its about $20-30k depending on your needs so it can be pricey for some people. I thought i would be enrolling in March but I feel continuous pressure from their offices asking me to call them. I dont have time to sit and chit chat on the pho...

thank you. I looked online and it seems like there are quite a few nursing classes to take and flat fee pricing per 6 months. if u really stack up on classes u can finish sooner n cheaper. Unfortunatly with work i know it would take me longer.

There is an inpatient dialysis unit in every hospital in a 40 mile radius from me. Id say its pretty common

Dont let this go so easily. Your instructor is a bully. Wipe those tears and handle your business!

I recently interviewed for an OR position and feel confident they will offer me the spot. Its sounds rewarding and challenging. I am still nervous about the decision and am not sure how I feel about the on call. I previously had a bad experience with...

RNMatthew. Plus the pay isnt bad either. Lol. Best of luck. I would love to hear more about the picu. Keep me updated on how ur doing. Always been my dream to be in nicu or picu.

Wow nice rnmatthew. Ive never seen a new grad end up in picu.

I appreciate your opinion but I came on here to understand the entire picture. I dont have a problem with on call, just trying to understand it as it pertains to the OR world. So your 'not to discourage you' post is, well, discouraging. Theres a way ...

Thanks for the input. 32 hrs is ridiculous. I would def speak up just like u did. Actually i already have. At one facility i was trying to help out but after 20 hrs i had to contact the mgr. must remain safe for yourself and the patient

Looking for insider information on OR nursing. I am a newer grad (2012) and have an opportunity to switch over to the OR. Part of me wants to pinch myself, is this a dream? OR was one of my favorite segments in clinical. At this point in the game I d...
