1. Chabot ADN vs Samuel Merritt ABSN

   kcmom replied to iluvmusak's topic in California

   If they have no positions then they should release the grads from repayment obligations. You be the judge: E(2) of the Loan Disclosure Statement states, “Participation in this program [i.e., the Kaiser Permanente Nursing Student Loan] guarantees hi...

   kcmom replied to iluvmusak's topic in California

   Kaiser scholars will not necessarily have to pay back their loans. If Kaiser does not do their part then they have broken the agreement per the promissory note. They have until 7/15 to get the grads working fulltime with benefits as staff nurses or...

   Yes we understand the legality involved. I'm sure the programs are the same. At the present time there are about 20 graduates impacted in this manner. Lawyers have been contacted (not something we would have planned to do). This is not a pretty e...

   kcmom replied to 2bnurse_it's topic in Pre-Nursing

   When did you get your placement? Yes the program has worked in the past but not now and not in this area. None of the students who graduated in May 2009 in our area and were recipients of the Kaiser program have received fulltime positions at the g...

5. Acclerated BSN programs in CA

   kcmom replied to saral_123's topic in California

   The Accelerated BSN program at CSUSM is highly competitive. You must have another BS degree before being accepted. The rigorous requirements involved 2 years work for our daughter straight through. During the last year of the program the on location ...

6. Pearsonvue Trick Is this TRUE? Does it work every time?

   kcmom replied to brichielpn08's topic in NCLEX

   Are there any pending requirements that have not been received/processed by the board? I know of someone who took the test but still needed some records sent over from a previous school. Best to do as instructed and contact your member board. My da...

7. Pearsonvue Trick Is this TRUE? Does it work every time?

   kcmom replied to brichielpn08's topic in NCLEX

   This technique worked for my daughter (in CA). Tested on Friday, June 19 with confirmed positive RN results online early Tuesday, June 23. She only had 75 questions.

8. Anyone took the NCLEX June 30th in CA?

   kcmom replied to Drea1713's topic in NCLEX

   First of all try to breathe slowly and deeply several times and calm yourself. It's good for you and your baby. Take a walk or bath or whatever else you do to soothe your heart and mind. Consider this waiting period just one example of the many str...

9. Acclerated BSN programs in CA

   kcmom replied to saral_123's topic in California

   Recent BSN graduates (2009) from an Accelerated program at another college in Southern California who received a Kaiser Forgivable Loan are NOT being offered fulltime RN positions almost 2 months post graduation per agreement. BSN + RN + Kaiser = na...

10. Kaiser Permanante ??

    kcmom replied to PACNWNURSING's topic in Oregon

    The most recent BSN graduates (2009) who are in the Kaiser Loan Forgiveness program are not pleased with the results. No fulltime RN payscale position with benefits being offered after almost 2 months post graduation. Current offering is subpar via...

    kcmom replied to 2bnurse_it's topic in Pre-Nursing

    The Kaiser Loan Forgiveness program is not playing out as anticipated this year. BSN grads with RN are not being offered fulltime going rate positions almost 2 months after graduation. This is quite upsetting to everyone concerned. Be cautious, be...

    kcmom replied to iluvmusak's topic in California

    Current BSN graduates who accepted the Kaiser Forgivable Loan program are not working yet. Some have RN too. I wonder if the program will continue. Lots of disappointed people right now. Students did their part, Kaiser NOT doing their part.

13. Tuition Reimbursement Programs

    kcmom replied to MisterSimba's topic in California

    The Kaiser Loan Forgiveness Loan program recipients (now graduates for 2009) are not pleased with the outcome so far. Some wheels are turning now so we'll have to see how this works out. Even with a BSN and RN in hand they are not being offered ful...

    Glad to hear that the Kaiser Loan Forgiveness recipients from 2008 graduations received positions. Not so in 2009 (now).

15. Kaiser Loan Forgiveness Program, easy to get accepted???

    kcmom replied to Max_108's topic in General Nursing

    I recommend that people check out the results of the Kaiser Loan Forgiveness Program. The end result is not as it was presented.
