3. Dont ever want to do critical care ... Afraid of it?

   bebejasmine2002 replied to trein's topic in Critical Care

   I thought the next step up is PCU or IMC.... Acuity is higher than med-surg yet lower than ICU. Going straight to ICU will probably overwhelm you. I am in IMC and let me tell you, some days I feel...

   bebejasmine2002 replied to myownboss's topic in General Nursing

   This "NCB" test is so stupid. I took it for an awesome new grad residency position and passed. However, I also took the same exact test for another hospital position and failed, which eliminated my...

   bebejasmine2002 replied to RedNavy's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

   Hi. I'm sorry to hear that you didn't pass. My advice is to pick ONE NCLEX source and master that front to back. Dedicate about 2 hours a day to focus on studying without any distractions and read all...

10. St. Rose New Grad Residency Sept. 2013

    bebejasmine2002 replied to bebejasmine2002's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Did you get your official offer letter yet? I'm still waiting on it. The verbal offer just feels surreal right now and I can't trust it until I see it on paper.

    bebejasmine2002 replied to bebejasmine2002's topic in Nevada Nursing

    They say bring 1 professional and 1 personal reference. Do you think it would hurt to bring more than 2? I don't want to overdue it. Lol... Also, they say interviews begin at 8:30. Are they just...
