  2. University of Washington

    Just wondering if anyone is applying to University of washington Nurse practitioner program? In previous years there was a thread going but, it doesn't look like anyone had posted anything this year so I thought I'd start!
  3. University of Washington

  4. University of Washington

    Did anyone else hear back that is applying to the Masters program? I still haven't heard anything. Im getting nervous!!! Maybe they do the DNPs before the Masters? Im guessing that may be the case because people who don't get into the DNP can be rev...

  6. University of Washington

    Leahobrien- Im sure if it says that your application is complete at the top that it should be fine- but, it doesn't hurt to check up on it. You sound like a strong applicant- just what they want; strong GPA, a few years experience, some volunteer exp...
  7. University of Washington

    When I look at my online application at the top is says, "The department has confirmed that it has received all necessary application information including letters, transcripts, test scores, and other required items." and then lower down is says "Rec...
  8. Graduate RN--How do I work abroad? Any info needed!

    12cycle21- Im not sure how much help I can be. I think a lot of hospitals go in waves about hiring new staff. So you just have to call, email, and look online as openings as much as possible. In Queensland I know that Uniting Health hires new Grads...
  9. Graduate School Interviews -- Help!

    I just had a interview and I wore black pants and a nice button up sweater. kept it simple. but, that was west coast as well. I think if I was doing NYC or boston it'd be a different story like you said. My interview was very casual with two profes...
  10. QUEENSLAND Nurses- thinking of you!

    Carol- most places they are able to get supplies to- either by boat, airplanes, or car. Im living in brisbane and we've been getting hit for the past couple of days. We went to the grocery store a couple of days ago..no meat, eggs, water, bread or ...
  11. Is anyone else in the same boat? Anyone else working on applications right now? Im applying to start hopefully in the fall or spring. the next few weeks are going to be a crunch- finishing these essays, getting my recommenders to get everything in an...
  12. How to tell the family the patient has died

    I work on a medical unit and we constantly have people that die on our ward. I have been instructed to not use the phrases- "passed away" "gone" "unresponsive" or anything that dances around the word dead. We have to say your father has died or is ...
  13. Who is working tonight?

  14. Almost a year under my belt and applying to MSN

    I have enough money to pay for most of it up front and the rest I'll take out loans (or hopefully get some scholarships). And it is pretty expensive but, I think it will pay off in the long run. Better to do it sooner than later. Also, Im thankfull...
  15. What are you supposed to do at YOUR hospital. Im not sure if it's different on every ward or what the case. But, what would you do in this situation. Come on to shift patient ob's stable, medications given as charted, patient responsive and talkati...
  16. What would you do? or what should you do?

    when i said not out of the ordinary i was just meaning the BP, sorry that I wrote it funny. And our hospital policy is that we STILL call a code if a patient is DNR and they go down the tubes like this. They didn't do CPR or anything like that. But...
  17. I need NYU, UPENN, Columbia, UCSF MSN info.

    There wasn't any replies here so ill just add a bit. Not sure if it will be helpful at all, but... What I have found through digging through about GPAs and such is exactly what you said they also look at test scores (but, i think a few of those schoo...
  18. UCSF 2011 MSN Hopefuls

    Im thinking of applying to UCSF too- the PMHNP program as well. And, I've just been getting my essays together and brainstorming. It's kind of driving me crazy. I guess it's hard to ever feel like I am good enough- or my application is strong enou...

  21. Info for new grads wanting to work in Oz

    I guess I was in a little bit of a different situation for several reasons but, ill try to answer this the best i can (if I can). The actual visa doesn't take long. But, to be on that visa (I think) you have to be sponsored. But, you could start wor...

  23. is it safe to jog after night **** work?
