Really? Thats so frustrating to hear. I have a permanent full-time job here, and I really don't want to move to ON, but unfortunately my boyfriend is stuck out there doing his residency for 4 more years. I pretty much have to move there at some point! I've heard that there is a big difference in the wages too, which is really disheartening.

Please tell me you are finally Registered now?! I'm a BC RN currently working on my application for registration in Ontario, and can already see that its going to be a very slow and tedious process. Now that you've gone through the entire thing, any further suggestions?

Hi everyone! I am a fourth year RN student and am seeking some advice. I recently started my final practicum on a med/surg floor that often has very acute patients. As this is my final practicum, I am expected to eventually take on 100% of the RN's role, under the supervision of a preceptor. My preceptor has told me that this is an important time to move away from doing all of the "extra student steps"and start to face the reality of the workplace (fast paced and time crunched). Although I understand this reasoning, I am finding it challenging to take my preceptor's advice for speeding up my work, as I am worried (esp with med admin) that this will lead to missing important things or making mistakes. As students we are taught to be very thorough and due to the extra steps/care we are encouraged to take, providing care may take longer. I want to learn how to increase my organization etc, so I am prepared to work alone when I graduate, but I also dont want to adopt bad habits or unsafe shortcuts just to get everything done faster. Does anyone have an experience with anything similar to this???
