  1. Should I Take the Chance/Sacrifice?

    *jojo* replied to HopeItWorksDNP's topic in General Nursing

  5. in-home Heparin injection for family

    *jojo* posted a topic in General Nursing

    *jojo* posted a topic in General Nursing

    I have a few questions about resumes that I hope someone can help me with. The first one I feel silly asking but when do I refer to myself as "Jojo RN"? Do I put the "RN" on the header of my resume...

  9. New Grad Resume, Please critique

    *jojo* replied to *jojo*'s topic in Nursing Career

    ][]quote=llg;4408650]My problem with your latest version is that it sounds "contrived and artificial." There is no personalilty in it. It's a generic statement that sounds like it was written by an...

  12. How to answer this question without limiting myself

    *jojo* replied to *jojo*'s topic in Nursing Career

    ]I am thinking it might be better to leave out cardiac all together now. I rotate onto all units and don't have to make an "official" choice until after 12 weeks, so why make a statement and possibly...

    *jojo* replied to Enc5013's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    Traffic is horrible. Sorry. Trips that might take 15 minutes during the night take more than an hour in the morning, early/mid afternoon, after 3 until it's dark. I would follow the local traffic...

  18. New Grad Night Shift 11pm-7am, how much can I expect to make?

    *jojo* replied to nickynoodles's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I agree but I must say I have been able to pick out people I know based on their posts. If you find a post by a person in say PA, and you are from PA, you can go to their page and track all posts...

  21. HESI's unfair practice of holding nursing students back after completing the programs

    *jojo* replied to bbrown6's topic in General Students
