  1. Inova Health System

    Did I miss these postings? Dang! I looked on the INOVA site and only found one posting for a night tele position. Am I looking in the wrong place, or are these 150 jobs gone already? Thanks for any...
  2. ADN and BSN in same year.

    It was a front loaded accelerated BSN program. It just ended up that we were eligible to get our ADN after taking Peds. I have a previous degree in Psych so it wasn't split specifically to ADN then...
  3. ADN and BSN in same year.

    Thanks! That makes sense. Maybe I'll include the months too so that it doesn't look like I got them at exactly the same
  4. I have a new job/resume question. I am graduating soon from an accredited school of nursing with my BSN in Puerto Rico. I have taken and passed my NCLEX and will be applying for jobs in the states. My...
  5. I'll be serving whine at my pity party

    Sometimes when I proof something I have read and I'm looking for typos and not grammar I'll read it backwards. That way I'm less likely to "predict" what I expect to see and don't skip over missing...

    @nursekeke The facebook page is in english and spanish. People just usually post in whichever is their first language. There is only one page for both the english and spanish program. The person...

    @npandres The website above is the Nursing Association Facebook page for La Inter and a lot of people are on it. You can always post that you are looking and see if any classmates know of leads....

  12. Puerto Rico school feedback?

    I am finishing up the program with my last semester starting in about 2 weeks. Rent here is really cheap, especially if your standards aren't too high. Coming from the states mine were, but I got over...
  13. Puerto Rico school feedback?

    DM get your license from Wisconsin. They take the degree from La Inter. Quite a few people I know have already taken NCLEX and gotten their confirmation from the nursing board. Once you have your...

  16. Puerto Rico school feedback?

    To add to what WTY said, Y's assistant also signs registration. She did my paperwork this trimester. It is a pain in the rear but they seem to be getting faster at it. I still don't like the "surprise...
  17. Puerto Rico school feedback?

    You'll get in. Everyone gets in. Especially if you are not concerned about being in the accelerated program or not. I am not sure the exact qualifications if you are not a second degree student, but...
  18. Nrsstudent09, did you graduate in '09? Have you been working elsewhere since? Where in the country is this hospital located? Sorry for all the questions, just trying to get a feel for what's out...

    Since so many of you will be braving the island soon and looking for housing I thought I would post some things you will want to ask/know when looking at places. 1. If you're coming early to find a...
  20. Puerto Rico school feedback?

    A good neighborhood to live in if you don't have a car is Las Cumbres because you can walk to school. Also there are student houses that have rooms for rent near the VA hospital and Centro Medico. The...
  21. Puerto Rico school feedback?

    Awanjo: You are correct, I am a student at Inter currently. I'll try to answer your questions as best I can. As for financial aid, you are applying to the US federal government via FAFSA, just like...
  22. Puerto Rico school feedback?

    Soooooo, my faith in the program at La Inter has been redeemed a little bit. I have a teacher this trimester who is knowledgeable, engaging, and overall a great teacher. There is hope for this program...
  23. What type of IV do I give? and/or not give?

    Thanks for the explanation! So much information...so little brain space left.
  24. Puerto Rico school feedback?

    Interamerican's Accelerated program goes from August to the next May. So people starting in August 2010 will graduate with their BSN in May 2012. There is an option to take pediatrics in the summer...
