  1. Right now we're looking at living in West Greensboro or Kernersville. High Point is out mainly because of our commute times. I will have on call shifts, so I would like to live within the 30 minute...
  2. Thanks for responding Michelle! How do you like living
  3. Thats great! Where are you guys moving
  4. RN Salaries across the US.

    I was offered a position in Winston Salem, NC. With 3 years of experience, it was $23.85 at an outpatient facility through the hospital. I'm relocating from Hawaii so I can only compare here to...
  5. New nurse job market in North Carolina??

    Congrats PatMac! That's the best feeling ever to see your name on the registry
  6. New nurse job market in North Carolina??

    I'll be moving from Hawaii to NC and from my experience the market seems so much better for new grads. I didn't have any hospital experience and I was offered a position in Greensboro. In Hawaii,...
  7. I just accepted an offer for Cone Health in Greensboro and starting is 23.84, not a new grad but it is a residency
  8. OR Internships, Residencies, Fellowships?

    I was just recently hired for an OR Residency Program in Greensboro, NC. I also have 2 years of experience outside of bedside nursing but was lucky enough to find this program through a nursing...
  9. Sense of Entitlement or Right to "Sample"

    I'm with the professor on this one. The student was disrespectful and rude whether intentionally or not. Yes, the professor was harsh in his response. But if this were a grad student, how did they...
  10. Is there anyone out there that feels this way?

    I can relate to how you feel in nursing school. I worked full time midnights, got married, and spent every break and long weekend flying across the country to spend time with my...
  11. I know it's been a while but I just saw this post and was curious if you've heard anything about your application? I just recently had a phone interview for the OR Residency program and I haven't...
  12. Your journey (jobs) as a nurse?

    NA in an inpatient rehab unit for 4 years while in nursing school. Graduated and moved to Hawaii. Couldn't get a foot into any hospitals, ended up working in a Family Medicine Clinic for a year,...
  13. Yep, all of mine got that same status.
  14. I agree with HippyDippy completely. With the current market, very few nurses are even in the position to negotiate salary. As a new grad in a highly saturated area with a high cost of living, I had...
  15. The ADN-BSN program I attended was extremely writing intensive. It was not enjoyable, but it made sense to me since it required way more critical thinking/intellectual skills than "reading a book and...
  16. New RN - what would you do?

    I work in the clinic setting and at both my current and previous position, this was acceptable practice. The MD or NP put the rx in the EHR, then it was up to the nurse to call it in. We had access...
  17. Army spouse

    Hi gpresley! I think that's a great idea! I actually just went through the entire application process for the AF Nurse Corps, only to get defferred to reapply in October. Because of the budget,...
  18. Air Force Nursing 2013

    Yeah, I agree with your point about timing. When I first started thinking seriously about it, my husband was active duty Army, and not crazy about the idea. Now that he is out, it is much more...
  19. Air Force Nursing 2013

    Thank you so much for the encouragement! I appreciate it. I'm having a hard time deciding if I want to put my packet back in for October or not. I think the hardest thing is that after all the work...
  20. Air Force Nursing 2013

    Yes, clinical nurse would be a fully qualified slot, but not in any specialty. Because I have two years of experience in ambulatory care, I don't qualify to apply as an ICU or ER accession. I...
  21. Forsyth/Novant/ Clemmons medical center

    Hi! Sorry you didn't receive a response to your questions. I too am looking into the Novant system hoping to gain employment after we relocate to the Winston-Salem area. Have you started working at...
  22. Hi all! I also applied for the WakeMed residency programs. The description wasn't very specific on how to qualify so I'm not sure if I really have a chance. Does anyone know if there is an...
  23. Air Force Nursing 2013

    I think I would consider the Navy if the opportunity arose. The AF really just seemed a perfect fit for my goals and what I hoped for my future family. I still can't decide if I will continue to...
  24. Air Force Nursing 2013

    Okay, I just confirmed it. He said an email was sent out this morning that they didn't give much notice but were not making up the clinical nurse board and there would be no more for this FY. I'm...
  25. Air Force Nursing 2013

    I'm so sorry to hear that kdazzle. This just mean's there are other opportunities out there waiting for you. I'm still very confused now because I was supposed to meet with the recruiter in about an...
