.Can anyone in Oklahoma confirm this video's claims? I know the video is a few months old now but at any point was this ever true? If it was and still is, thats great. If it wasn't true, perhaps someone needs to update the media. The reason I ask is ...

Hey guys! Congrats on getting those offers! Anyone else know if we need specific scrub colors? I know some hospitals require specific colors so I don't want to go dropping money on some scrubs only to get something I might need to return later. Thank...

Does anyone work at WHC and commute from North Virginia (more specifically, Alexandria or Arlington)? I'm trying to look for a place in NoVA but I'm just afraid the commute might be unbearable. If anyone does commute, how long does it typically take ...

Thanks for the advice and quick reply, CharmedJ7! I didn't know about the parking being only $25/month. That's actually really good for being in a city but I guess it comes at the price of traffic. Sorry to ask you another question, but did you find ...

How are utilities in the District? Also, how is your commute? Do you drive to WHC or use the metro? In terms of being inside DC, I've been looking for places in Dupont Circle and the Waterfront south of the National Mall. Otherwise I'm looking in Ale...

Excellent point and i feel the same way. I've looked into other fields and it always fun to cone up with ideas of where else I can apply this degree. I certainly have not had trouble finding insurance companies actively recruiting me to sell insuranc...

No, i dont believe so. Last i heard it was ~$28 for a new grad there. But with experience, I believe Penn is the highest paying in the area so it would be nice to start and stay there. Jefferson is paying 27 and some cents for newbies.

Agreed with the "apps, pray, move forward". Its the only way. You wouldn't happen to be in Texas would you? That's the only state that I've heard it being easier to find a job. Unfortunately, I'm not in a position to pick up and move there.

Oh, and CONGRATS on your decision.

Is the Air Force Nursing Corp strictly stateside or is there a chance you will be shipped to the Middle East or wherever our next war is? Also, the commitment is only 3 years? I'd expect it to be longer than that. Maybe they have you on reserve for a...

New grad here also. I can see where the OP is coming from. I have nothing again those that came out of retirement to provide for themselves and family. More power to them for come back into the work force to help themselves and their families. I am s...

Thanks for the info and advice. Ill be sure to check it out.

How do you go about applying for corrections nursing? I would be interested.

Does the PA BON update everyday or just Mon-Fri?

there is a book ive seen that is specifically for medical spanish, focusing on keywords. even if you cant say a whole sentence grammatically correct, you would have the right vocab to step in the right direction.

Its hard now but it will get better. Take a lower position in you have to such as a CNA to get to the know the manager. A lot will hire from their own crew if possible.

I thought they already had that on the test.

I myself have seen too many transparent scrub pants.

I would look at Air Force also. As wtbcrna said, the benefits/pay are almost identical across all the military branches. Its just a matter of where you would rather be. Try to get a recruiter to connect you with someone who is current a nurse in Navy...

Hello! Currently looking for positions which is almost impossible as a new grad but still gotta try.... Anyway, I'm coming across some job postings that say clinical nurse. Are these clinical nurses = clinical nurse specialists, even though it isn't...

Ditto. And as for the similar students in a similar situationhow could such a plan be viable without jobs to begin with considering the job market. There very minimal jobs for new grads to begin with. She is lucky that she even has a job to start pay...

Hi guys! I was reading about chest pain and read about the MONA greets mnemonic, and now I'm questioning what I thought. If we get a question about chest pain and O2, nitro, morphine, or aspirin are all choices, which would be first? I always thou...

Hello friends, I have question about nursing diagnoses and prioritizing them. Which would be greater priority diagnosis for patient with ARDS? Ineffective breathing pattern or Inadequate Gas Exchange or something else that I am not aware of? I ha...

Cool beans! That made a lot of sense. It seems so obvious when you put it that way. And awesome link too.

Ok thanks a lot guys! I guess it is also important not to read too deep into these questions, which i seem to be extremely guilty of!
