  1. LTC Salary for new grad RN

    To answer your question...I would not try to negotiate a pay as a new grad. If you are not happy with what is offered then don't take the job, but they will find someone who will and with things the way they are right now I would jump at the opportun...
  2. LTC Salary for new grad RN

    I live in SC and I just got a job in LTC. It is a new facility and I am starting at just over 20/hr. This is 7a-7p. I thought it was a little low but I wasn't going to complain, I have had a difficult time even getting an interview. I was also told t...
  3. Don't forget your ABC's. Airway, breathing, circulation. Ask yourself what would be the outcome if I did... Remember to take your time and don't make up a story. Have you ever heard of Kapan? We used this as part of our nursing classes and it really ...
  4. Cheating in the Classroom

    I am a recent grad and in my school it would have been very difficult to cheat. The pre-req. classes it wouldn't be hard but the nursing classes VERY hard. You are not allowed to bring in anything to the testing center, not even your own pencil, (bel...
  5. New RN grad can't find work

    I have applied on-line because I was told that was the chain. I have called a couple of the NM on the floors just to let them know who I am and that I applied. I guess I just get impatient when they don't call me back in a couple of days and I don't ...
  6. New RN grad can't find work

    I finished school Feb 19 and took the NCLEX and PASSED. While I was in school all I worried about was passing each test and then passing the NCLEX, little did I know that passing was the easy part. I have applied for so many positions and I get a rej...
  7. Greenville Tech clinical hours

    You really can't do the nursing program part time. You can do the pre-reqs part time. They were going to offer a night program but due to budget cuts they are unable to do so now. Between class, labs, and clinicals most of the classes are M-F. This d...
  8. Job search frustration

    Things have to get better. If you have the chance to further your career by all means...go ahead. I am going to keep a positive attitude and just keep looking.
  9. Job search frustration

    I live in SC and I am having the same problem. I keep getting rejection letters saying that "another candidate better fits our needs" They are such generic rejection letters. It is so frustrating!!! I will keep looking, but it seems like unless you k...

  11. Need Advice in passing nclex the 2nd time

    I agree with Whispera, you should go back and read the rationales for the questions, I not only looked at the questions I got incorrect but went over the ones I got correct. I got a lot of priority questions and select all that apply. With the priori...
  12. I think I would talk to the advisor at the college you are planning to attend. A year ago I would have suggested Chemistry, but while I was in nursing school it was changed that we no longer needed Chemistry, so before I took it I would make sure tha...
  13. took nclex-rn yesterday...i think i failed...

    I also took mine on the 6th, I found out on the 8th that I passed. It is so true that no matter how well you did everyone feels like they failed. Even if you leave thinking "that wasn't so hard" then you start the think "maybe I got all easy level qu...
