Hey, I'm a new grad and found this wonderful hospital to work at. The pay is $5 more than any of the other hospitals in the area, but they are still a relatively new hospital. Some other nurses told me I would get better experience at one of the lar...

Okay me a day or 2. I gotta find the data files on my flash drive.

I am about to graduate nursing school in like a week and in the end want to be a FNP. I'm only 25 and people are telling to wait and work for 3 years, preferably in the ICU. And then go to NP school. Is that helpful for me in the long run? I don't wa...

I didn't take it. I went to the medical center of central ga. I liked the hospital and the staff seemed very nice but as you know its a long term acute care facility. One thing I can say about it is that the pay is AWESOME there! The only reason I we...

Give me an email. I'll send a copy to you. I hope you know that it acts funny with windows 7, nclex 3500 would be better if you have windows 7.

So I'm a new grad looking to work at one of these hospitals but I don't really know anyone that works at any of them. I like to typically stay at facility or work place for years and I wanna make a good fit for me. Like I hear 6 main at MCCG is hell ...

I'm graduated from Darton College in Albany, Ga. It was a great program and I learned a lot.

Thank you soooo much! I love the info you've given me.

I'm from that area and my dad's a lieutenant. NurseEuele is right, the west side is a nicer area. My dad likes the houses off of Moody Rd. Which is like 5 or 10 mins away from the base. That way he doesn't have to deal with traffic that much too and ...

Thank all of you so much! I needed the input! I'm going to get more experience and do the research. Hopefully they don't change the rules by then.

Which setting would you suggest? I like the Family NP role because you can care for patients across different ages.

lol.... I'm just trying to help and besides they're gonna need it messing around with darton. I just can't wait to graduate!

Yes Denise thats right. We take a HESI every semester 2 times and the best score of the two is calculated into a test grade. Typically having 5 or 6 unit tests a semesters + the HESI and + the final. I'm taking my last class now which is med-surg 3. ...

There is a HESI exam but you don't have to pass it to pass the class. The HESI is B.S. in sooo many way but this is how it is now. The HESI counts as a test grade and it goes by your percentage score. Lets say you make an 900 on the HESI out of 1400....

I think so, Ms. Lanier your instructor is gonna give me a date Monday. It will be over my experience in the program, tips and advice, and going over the programs / e-books I'm going to give your class, and the importance and value of NCLEX questions...

I'm using ebooks and a couple of paper books. Ummm, I don't have much that can help you for fundamentals. For Med Surg and your other classes, I have plenty. I'm actually going to do a presentation for your class the first day. I'm going to give your...

July 28th! I can't wait. I'm actually studying for the class already, hoping to finish all the units before summer classes start. I hate taking med surg classes over the summer, but I wanna graduate as soon as possible. A couple of words for motivati...

No problem. Ummm, surviving nursing school is well.... Challenging. I'm still trying to get out myself. lol... In fundamentals you just have to study, study, study. That class gives you the foundation for future classes. Also, most of the instructors...

Sorry for being so late. Over the summer you will have fundamentals of nursing and pharm and I already told you the schedule for that. Typically med surg 1 & 2 classes are once a week and clinicals are once a week till you get to med surg 3. Depe...

I'm in darton's nursing program and will be graduating over the summer. Your class will be on mondays and tuesdays. So you can commute over the summer. But when you start your med-surg classes you may want to consider the move. It will be easier on ...

Hey, I've just started my Maternal Nursing Class. In all my med-surg classes, my saunders review book has been great for me. I'm a male with no kids and I feel clueless. lol... I wanted to get a review book for this class but I don't know which one. ...

I'm a new student and the nursing exams really upset me. I know the material and can easily explain it, but when test time comes thats a different story. The simplest questions I get wrong. I read, read, and read some more everyday. I'm starting to r...
