  2. Prison job for female RN

    semicolonergic replied to luckystarRN's topic in Correctional

    I work at a county jail and love it. You have to be VERY secure with yourself in terms of being a female and not letting jabs about "ugly", "fat", etc bother you....because they will throw anything...

  3. What is the fate of the new graduate RN?

    semicolonergic replied to Aubrianna's topic in General Nursing

    As a nurse who graduated about 3 years ago, I can tell you that it's better now than even a year ago. stick with it, I work at a prison (never thought I'd be here!!) and love, love, love it!! Odd...

  5. Desk job or Prison job? Help!

    semicolonergic replied to christinacub's topic in General Nursing

    As a jail nurse, I love it! I have to say that the officers are worse than the inmates for flirting. I'm not what a typical guy would want on the street, and still get the comments from inmates. Gotta...

  6. Rx Adderall for a nurse

    semicolonergic replied to Guest03/15/15's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know about all states, but in my state, I've worked in 3 facilities while on adderall. I'm up front about it before I go in for drug testing so it's not a surprise and I make sure I have a...

  7. Licensure by Endorsement...timing?

    semicolonergic replied to hiddencatRN's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    You definitely have to get endorsed first. I went through the same thing and most applications can't even be completed without endorsement. It took 6-8 weeks once the application was in at BON. It's...

  8. Has anyone worked at this LTC Facility, Berea Ohio

    semicolonergic replied to katnursey's topic in General Nursing

    I did clinical rotations there in the children's hospital and grew up just around the corner. While the children were fabulous, it was a LOT of work. Lots and lots of "aid" type work was done by the...

  9. Its true - very few jobs for new grads.

    semicolonergic replied to nycNurse2b's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    Jessy RN, I am VERY interested in moving and learning more....unfortunately, I don't think I have enough posts to PM people...or at least am not seeing the

  10. New Grads and Clinical Hours

    semicolonergic replied to ilovenursing2009's topic in General Nursing

    Great. I'm a new grad going to a career fair in a few hours....without all those certificates. Haha, here's

  11. New Grads and Clinical Hours

    semicolonergic replied to ilovenursing2009's topic in General Nursing

    I agree about the quality versus quantity. Many, many of my hours especially in OB were spent sitting, waiting. Not learning much. I would guess we did 400 hours...though it doesn't feel like that! I...

  12. New Jersey Nurses ... Help!!!

    semicolonergic replied to Meg88's topic in General Nursing

    Hey I just moved here as well. You are able to apply for licensure here by endorsement. Mine has not been finished yet because they give you quite a run around with fingerprints. If you are out of...

  13. NEED HELP ASAP

    semicolonergic replied to amontalvo84's topic in First Year After Licensure

    OP, I found it really easy to use the Saunder's disc. I was able to do 100 questions at a time and reward myself with a few minutes on facebook or some other distractor. 100 questions isn't hard to...

  14. I'm so sorry I didnt go straight for my BSN

    semicolonergic replied to Blackheartednurse's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I agree with the previous poster. It sure does stink, but I was an aid before getting my license, and lost my job because it was out of my scope of practice. There was no job that just "opened up" for...

  15. New Grads with No Job...Back to School???

    semicolonergic replied to JMRN09's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I am in the same predicament as you, except with an associate's degree. I started back up with an online program this month and love it! I felt as if I was losing skills and was pretty upset about job...

  16. Should I be applying even though I don't know if I passed the NCLEX?

    semicolonergic replied to Steffers's topic in General Nursing

    I put the place I graduated from and the year, then put NCLEX scheduled:__________. That way, the prospective employer knows you have set a date and they can kindof make a time frame. Just make sure...

  17. Why don't employers start lowering wages for nurses?

    semicolonergic replied to hcer4507's topic in General Nursing

    Hey now, some people are getting awfully mean to the OP. As a new grad, I SORTOF see where she's coming from. There've been many days I say to people that I wish I could do the 16 week training at a...

  18. Background Check in PA

    semicolonergic posted a topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Forgive me if this is covered somewhere else and I'm missing it--- when applying to the BON for initial licensure, do you have to get a background check somewhere and have the results sent to BON?...

  19. Background Check in PA

    semicolonergic replied to semicolonergic's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Thanks! I'm not concerned about the results of it so much as how to complete it? Is there additional paperwork to be done besides just the application for

  20. Bryant&Stratton Parma Ohio

    semicolonergic replied to HodgimomiRN's topic in Ohio Nursing

    I agree with the last post. Having completed the program, I can say first hand how horrible it was. Rarely are questions answered about administration, most staff are two faced in how they deal with...
