  1. ? re: closed trials

    anc33 replied to SpecFuz's topic in Research

    Becoming the contact person does not hold you accountable for anything anyone else signed, they just need someone capable of answering queries, etc. 11 trials (depending on enrollment) is alot to...

  2. Advanced education/training necessary to become research nurse

    anc33 replied to BSNinOK's topic in Research

  3. Gainesville ?'s

    anc33 replied to Pompom's topic in Florida Nursing

    Yes, I have been here about 10 years now and the traffic has changed quite a it. I definitely takes a good half hour or more to get from downtown to, lets say, the oaks mall. Then again that is...

  5. Mercy medical center

    anc33 replied to mallarashu's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Mercy is very close to Mt Vernon like someone else said. You definitely wouldn't need a car (especially since parking is impossible). I remember the guards at Mercy would walk me back to my apt...

  6. Advanced education/training necessary to become research nurse

    anc33 replied to BSNinOK's topic in Research

    I think that the advance education is great but not necessary to get good jobs in research. You already have over two years of experience. It would be more beneficial to find someplace to "re-wet...

  9. Pre-employment physical

    anc33 replied to mlmRN30's topic in General Nursing

    I have never had a pre-employment physical that included a blood draw. I don't think that I would ever agree to that though. Urine drug screens, yes, blood, no. These physicals should only be...

  12. Agency Nurse doesn't know how to start IVs?

    anc33 replied to GardenDove's topic in General Nursing

    Same here. I also went to a top school where we were not permitted to learn this skill. They told us that MD law prohibits unlicensed personnel from doing these kind of procedures. I also learned...

    anc33 replied to Balder_LPN's topic in General Nursing

  21. Research Nurse Coordinator???

    anc33 replied to CardioTrans's topic in Research

  25. Accelerated BSN Programs, How Competitive Are They Really?

    anc33 replied to wannabecatcher's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hopkins loves their Cali students. They also have a lot of folks who are really into L&D. Sounds like it might be a good fit. They accept around 150 students into their program so you...
