2. Columbus Job Market?

   kkcrank replied to confusedstudentnurse's topic in Ohio

   I relocated from Toledo to Cbus 2 months ago, and still haven't found a job. University Hospitals won't hire without at least a year of experience, unless you are in their internship program. It sucks to be a nurse in Columbus right now. I'm only her...

3. COT/contract question

   kkcrank posted a topic in Government

   For those who have been to COT/officer training, I have a question from one of the nurses that I am going with: Are you able to change whether or not you accept loan repayment during COT? Our final contracts haven't been signed, and she is under the ...

   Andrews, although that will probably be eliminated soon. Lackland, Keesler.

5. School Nursing Experience before going through Air Force NTP allowed??

   I'm a little late, but NTP should be for anyone with 12 months of experience or less.

6. Nurses looking into AF Nursing..

   kkcrank replied to kkcrank's topic in Government

   LOL. Wow. It wasn't meant to disappoint anyone. It was meant to encourage those who were thinking about applying to the NTP program to do it sooner rather than later. I know nurses who didn't get picked up their first time. It wasn't the end of the w...

   Also, I'm talking about the NTP program for those with no experience, not experienced nurses.

   Not sure why she would lie to me since I'm already "in," nor am I saying it was definitely true, just passing on info in case anyone was interested.

10. Nurses looking into AF Nursing..

    kkcrank posted a topic in Government

    I was getting commissioned at Wright-Patt yesterday, and the Healthcare Recruiter told me that for the next FY (2010 --starting in Oct) they only have 180 nursing positions that need to be filled. They've already gotten over 500 applicants... before ...

11. applying for MSN without RN working experience???

    kkcrank replied to cutieqq88's topic in Post Graduate

    Depends. I graduated May 2009, and was accepted into The Ohio State University's AHNP program for Sept 2009. They don't require RN working experience.

12. Questions about the Air Force

    kkcrank replied to DrCOVID's topic in Government

    Enjoy MEPS, it's a long day. Expect to get yelled at a lot as soon at you get to COT. It should ease up the 3rd week or so.

13. Name on BON -pending?

    kkcrank replied to Logos's topic in NCLEX

    In Ohio, it changes you from "pending" to "passed." Or if you fail, I think you stay at pending until you pass.

14. SURVEY for 75 questions on NCLEX RN

    kkcrank replied to Ng74's topic in NCLEX

    75, passed, about an hour... a little less.

15. NCLEX advice please!

    kkcrank replied to meg2009's topic in New Nurse

    For the NCLEX, I think you know it or you don't. You can't really study because there are so many topics! I know there were meds and diseases on my NCLEX I hadn't even heard of! Yet, I passed with 75 questions. I just took 100 question exams in the 2...
