Well I have been working in this facility for 3 months now, so far so good. My boss had no concerns with my pregnancy (other than if I would be back after the baby, which I will be). I very rarely have to deal with acute situations which is what I guess I was worried about in the beginning and the patients are really great.

I am starting as a psych nurse tomorrow in a long term care/rehab facility. This facility only accepts axis I primary dx. Here is my first question... I am 21 weeks pregnant but not really showing yet, what precautions should I take as a pregnant woman in this situation? Should I be worried? This is not an institution that deals with acute conditions, which makes me feel a bit more at ease. My second question is more of an HR issue. Am I required in any way notify my employer about my pregnancy now that I have accepted this job? I do not think I am but I can say I feel awful about not releasing this info during the interview. I know I will only be taking a short leave and will be returning to work. Also, this has been an uneventful and healthy pregnancy so far with no restrictions and I expect to work right up to my 9th month. I hope this does not put a damper on my relationship with my superiors. Thank you so much for any input, it is much appreciated!

Does the pop up happen right away in the very beginning of the registration process or only when you go to pay?

Hi there. I am new to this, this is my first post. I am really freaking out about the nclex, which I am scheduled to take 2-9 (2 days away!) I just took a 90 question practice test and got a 51%, which I think might be the lowest score I have gotten on a practice test yet...I have been studing every day for a month doing at least 100?/day. Has anyone taken the "SCORE!" nclex prep? (its endorsed by the student nurse assoc of PA) That is the book I used today for my test. Does anyone else find this book to be more difficult then the rest? I also am using Hogan for review and do fine, between 68-75% usually...is that good enough to pass the ncex? I guess I just want to know if I am ready and am hoping that my Hogan scores are enough and that the score prep tests are as hard as I think. Please let me know what you think!!! I feel like I really can not remember anything and could use some reassurance or if need be a reality check... oh, I also got the Kaplan book and got a 70 or 72 on the cd that came with the book...but that was a while back, my grades seem to be deteriorating
