So I posted my resume on some of the career search websites and I got a job offer to be a travel nurse!!!! I have no experience what so ever...is it safe to start working as travel nurse right out of nursing school:)?

I came across Judy's Miller NCLEX review CDs available for purchase (although the whole set is pretty expensive),the CD go breakdown the every body system and workbook,quizes also comes with it.Basically this program is designed for audiovisual type ...

I'm a new graduate nurse (still dont have the license but I'm scheduled for the NCLEX in the mid of August) and I was wondering how did the new grads found their jobs or any nurse for that matter? Did you walk in to the health care facility and spoke...

You mean that the hemoglobin dropped from 9.6 to 8.6 not 96 to 86? Or am I missing something here???

I think you should keep your job and keep filling out aplications,with that said I just accepted a job as a transporter(my whole family totally disowned me and their friends hehe and all they do is just keep giving me advices what should I do so I fi...

I guess I'm tired of people always pulling the race card.

I think this is a very objective opinion..I'm sure that any nurse regardless of color,gender would be reprimended for her/his unkept appearance...I'm not saying that the head nurse was right in saying those things to your friend (since obviously your...

I wouldnt automatically jump to fire the head nurse however she needs to be at least disciplined......

yes it worled for me...

WHAT????

Yeah I can definitely relate.When I was in NS I always had problems with hearing any abnormal or diminished sounds...so I went ahead and purchased a book with the CD that has many different types of abnormal sounds you can listen to....I think it is ...

Sad to see so many unhappy marriages

yeah I'm ****** off too and I think it is BS,I hate the fact that people cant have afair shots,regardless what other may think in my opinion everyone should be provided with an equal shot regardless of who they know...you know like they feed us at th...

hmmm I witnessed a very similar incident...during our preceptorship one of my african american female nursing students had a complain about her hair that she looked unkept and unhygienic...she was hurt by those comments but she took the criticism to ...

Ok so I took my NCLEX today Wensday the 12th of August at 2;00pm.I was very nervous,shaking,excited when I got there and I think people responsible for signing us in thought I must have been nuts...I got hit pretty bad from the the get-go....The firs...

Ok I did the famous trick and according to it I passed!!!!!!!!Wohoo,just a question do I have to wait a 2 day period to get the quick results?

I took the test in Illinois...so when I get to the pearsonvue should I go to my account or to schedule the test.And where do I go to sign up for quick results

Oh my my so sorry to hear that,I'm so scared to try the trick now!!!

I tested today as well and I stopped at 83 I think?! I dont know what to think of it.I had couple of SATA,priority,infection control,one math and one drag and drop question...did you try the trick?

That is honestly sad,it crossed my mind to apply for the food stamps anyway I may try the clinics,doctor's office or LTC

I'm taking mine today at 2 pm.I should be sleeping now but I cant!!!!!!!!!

:bluecry1:I'm testing wensday and on average I'm scoring 68% on the cram exam cd tests,did anyone scored that low and passed NCLEX?

Ok so I'm testing for the NCLEX in three days and I came across a question that asked if proton pump inhibitors should be given with meals...I'm confused since I read in one of my review books that proton pump inhibitors should be given prior to meal...

I dont understand why it is do hard for you to handle/accept different mind set,you can learn a lot from different perspective instead of getting offended!

In my eyes not signing the med is a serious mistake..it doesnt matter if it was giving or not!!!!!Such mistakes can lead to double-dosing quick,just think about pain meds PRN especially!!!
