Congrats! Found one too!!! Smaller Local Hospital but known as RN Boot Camp! Med-Surg Floor but....patients are so critically ill (Vent + Tele + Wound Vac + Stage IV Pressure Ulcer + PEG + PICC)--very very overwhelming for a new grad like us but very...

No calls yet. Status: Application forwarded to manager - 7/18.

Relax (I know its hard but try anyways!) Take a walk if you can before the interview. You'll prolly be asked Scenarios (Brush up on prioritizing skills, nursing skills, ABCs, always assess first before doing anything) and Behavioral (Strength and wea...

TAKE IT! You'll have your chance to go float in Med SUrg when you get in. I did my preceptorship in ED and loved every minute of it (12 HOur shifts). Good luck!

I feel your pain. I just graduated from a very intense and expensive LVN-RN ADN program late last year, passed the boards last February, Got certified in ACLS, PALS, MOAB, turned in hundreds of applications since passing the boards and so far, I've g...

Most hospitals are going magnate status, therefore RN positions are getting scarce for ADN Nurses. Its just disappointing knowing we qualified for the same license, we passed the same license but having a BSN gives an extra edge in job hunting. What...

Stanford Hospital/Lucille Packard New Grad Program now open for applicants. FYI: BSN Grads Only

Jeez! Ms Sweetnurse! Its like you are reading my mind. My sentiments exactly! Politics indeed. I'm really considering UCSFs RN-MS Program. Maybe it will make my bed making skills and bed bath better. Just Kiddingggg!!!!

I know. Thats the plan. RN - MS via UCSF =http://nurseweb.ucsf.edu/www/ps-ad.htm

Hi Ms Brewnette! It is a book about prioritization and delegation. It's divided in 3 parts. 1st part explains how to prioritize and delegate. 2nd part are multiple choice questions (a must before taking NCLEX) and 3rd is Case Studies. You can get em ...

Took it 4 hours ago. Stopped at 75, lots of SATA, Priorotization, Delegation, Psych, Maternity, Peds and Endocrine . Finished in about 1 hour 15 minutes. Good pop up came up. Thanks everyone for the support and prayers! Hurst Review + Lacharity book...

17 hours to go ... Good luck to all and please say a little prayer for me that I may pass this test. Thank you in advance, CarlitosWay

You'll be fine superman! Don't worry about your scores too much. Just keep reading those patho esPecially endocrine and do questions and buildyour endurance. Good luck and God bless!

1st week of Feb Good luck every one!!! A little prayer to Saint Jude wouldnt hurt =) PRAYERS FOR SPECIAL INTENTIONS "St. Jude, glorious apostle, faithful servant and friend of Jesus, the name of the person (who betrayed our Lord) has caused you to ...

Thanks! Hurst review was very interactive and fun...I hope it works!

Forgot...After taking Hurst...My Kaplan Qbank scores jumped from mid 60s to high 60s - mid 70s ... =)

Im actually doing that...Took kaplan live review last November, did all their Qbank, scored in the mid 60s using educated guesses, luck and memory and FAILED last month with 105 questions. Didn't reinforce what I already know when I took the boards I...

I feel your pain =( ... Failed mine last month and im retaking it next month. I took Kaplan live review but was not able to utilize their strategies. All we did was do questions in class for about 8 meetings (2xweek) for 3 hours every meeting less 3X...

Maslows = 1st level = Physiologic = ABC AIRWAY = Hypoxic, Hypoxemic = DEATH BREATHING = same as above but need to establish airway first in order to breath CIRCULATION = 0 circulation = 0 RBC (hgb-O2 carrying) = poor perfusion ischemia = DEATH Choose...

I just took the NCLEX RN and unfortunately failed. I took the live Kaplan review last month and it was horrible. Class is from 9am-12pm and they teach you test taking strategies and answer questions during the class. For a class that is 3 hours long...

Failed at 120...Back to the drawing board. Lots of SATA, Priority Qs, Infection Control (MRSA). Lab values...Good luck to all!!! "There's always a rainbow after every storm" Kaplan Qbank was dead on, very very similar format.

I also test on the 6th and yes! Anxiety level is really sky high. Bubby tummy since monday. Good luck on Monday!

Its not a scratch paper..its kinda like a mini white board + erasable marker and it stays in the room. Good luck!

Just an FYI - RN Bridge done. Graduated October 15th. Taking NCLEX RN on Monday (Dec 6th). Hope all is well

Saunders 4th Edition. Thank you
