I am interested in possibly doing some travel nursing to California. Can anyone give me some advice on how to go about getting in contact with a good travel agency? I've worked in the ER for 2 years now, live in Georgia, and am ready for a change. My...

Thanks for your encouragement, Been there, done that!

Happytexas, I am interested in talking more with you about your add. I am diagnosed with severe inattentive ADD and would love to get in touch and see how you are doing and how you cope with your ADD. Email me at [email protected]

I know exactly how you feel. I am a new grad and just gave my 2 weeks notice at my job in the ER yesterday after 6 months. I hated the constant anxiety and feeling like I knew nothing. I could not keep up with my patients, was always behind, and fou...

I am a new grad in the ER, I have been there for 6 months and still feel like I know nothing! I had 3 months orientation, so I have been "on my own" for 3 months. I had a patient come in a few months ago (right after I had gotten off orientation) com...

Itsnowornever- I had to take a pharm test before I was hired at my current job at the ER, all it was was a 25 question pencil and paper test of super easy med calc questions! If its anything like the one I had to take you should be fine! :) Best of l...

k31kozumi - I know it has been a while since your original post, but I thought I would chime in. I graduated in December of last year (Dec 2011) from nursing school and spent four months looking for a job. My "dream job" was the ER, and I actual...

I graduated this past December with a MSN. I went through an accelerated nursing program to get my Masters degree in Nursing in 16 months (all I had previously was a Bachelor of Social Work). After having an incredible amount of info crammed into my ...

I must have missed the sign-up for the RN residency, I've applied to several jobs there and just received emails saying I have to complete RN residency before being considered. However, there is no option to apply for RN residency on the website. Doe...

I am in an accelerated nursing program and am due to graduate in December. I have had issues with anxiety all of my life. My doctor just prescribed me Serax to take as needed for anxiety, and also Xanax XR, to see which one I like better. I'm just sc...

I have had shaky hands since I was a child. My sister and my dad both have it too. After doing some research, I've decided it sounds a lot like ET. I also have ADD and take Adderall everyday, which I know doesn't help with the shaking. I am in my las...

Cara1017- Thank you so much for writing! You really made me feel better about those tests! I really need to get busy studying the medical terminology, I haven't started...I'm a procrastinator as well :) It looks so overwhelming. How do you recommend...

Is anyone having problems downloading Java for Vista8? I got a new computer recently and it has a Windows 7 system. But the only available options on the download page are Windows XP or Windows Vista. I tried to dl it using the windows vista tab whil...

Jillibeeg, Thank you so much for your response! It was very helpful :) I printed out the medical terminology terms last night and there are so many!!! I guess I should just take ONE page at a time. My problem was in high school and college, I never ...

Jillibeeg- Thanks for the reply! :) Has anyone started working on the drug dosage calculations? I got the book and CD that was recommended in the book list, it's so much to learn! I haven't even started looking at medical terminology and APA stuff. ...

I agree with the rest of ya'll that Amazon and similar websites is the best place to buy books! The bookstores rip you off. I don't see any kind of medical terminology book on the book list, but there is a link to a medical terminology website, does ...

I don't know how many of you have Mac computers but I ordered some of my books and the CDs that comes with "Davis's Drug Guide" and "Davis's Laboratory and Diagnostic Tests with Nursing Implications" do not work on Macs Just FYI. I thought they wer...

I just checked my MCG email and got the information on how to register for classes. However, I have not finished my immunizations. I am planning on mailing them off at the end of next week. But just for fun I was going to see if it would let me regis...

Attilamom - Congratulations on your acceptance! I will also be attending the Athens campus. I am so excited to meet everybody! :)

Thank you! That's what I was thinking. It was done through AHA. I think I'll email OM just to make sure. Thank you for your reply!

This may have already been answered, but if I took a CPR class at the end of last year do I have to retake another one? Or could that one count? Thanks guys!

So is everyone going to wait to buy any books until we know for sure?

I just want to make sure I understand this right...for those of us who are attending the Athens campus, we will have Pearce and Pearce insurance and can use the UGA health center? Is that right? I also feel I am a little behind on my immunizations......
