Anyone work (or worked in the past) at Queen's Punchbowl Campus in the ER? What did you like/dislike about the department? Thanks

has anyone had an interview for Sharp Grossmont 5W yet?

Where do you live?

Hi, I applied for the med surge PCU residency at Grossmont because I did my preceptorship on 5 East PCU. I didnt get the email that everyone talking about that they cancelled that new grad program, and I also havent gotten a call. Did you talk to th...

They do where I live. Some of them have masters degrees.

I am all for making BSN the requirement for entry to practice, but I think hospitals need to look at the education system. I am a second degree student. My first degree is a Bachelor's degree in Biology. By the time I decided I wanted to go back to s...

How long did it take from the time you had an interview to when they got back to you? I am a new grad ADN (with a previous BS, but as you know that does you no good in nursing) and have been looking for work since June. I had an initial interview wit...

I've applied to all of those places you mentioned, and have been looking at indeed and Craig's List every day. I just finished an application on USA jobs for the naval medical centers. So if I want to apply to a hospital in Ohio I have to have an Ohi...

Thank you for the encouragement. I have an interview tomorrow with a clinical research company. Its not nursing, but it is in the science/healthcare field and i need to work after being out of school for 4 months.I am going to apply for my RN license...

I do want to do the NP route, I have a degree from UCSD in Biology. I actually became interested in nursing while at UCSD but they dont have a nursing school, and I was already a junior. A career counselor said I should just finish my degree and late...

What schools are you looking at? I had the same situation, I have a previous BS and wanted to get a BSN but couldnt get into any public california schools because they were blocking second bachelor applicants. Now I cant find any schools that will le...

Emilyn, WHERE are ADNs getting hired in Southern California? I have a BS from UCSD and graduated in May from San Diego City College with an ADN. I have applied to hospitals all over California, and San Diego is the worst. Only 4 out of my class of 55...

foreverLaur, I asked you a question about the RN-MSN for RN's with a non nursing bachelors degree. Where are you living that you can even get looked at for a job without a BSN? My problem with the MSN programs is that although I have a BS and an ADN,...

ForeverLaur, can you tell me what school you are going to that will let you apply with an ADN and a BA? I have a BS in Biology and an ADN. I WANTED to get the BSN, but because of budget cuts in California, the state schools were blocking second bache...

Hi, I have a BS in Biology from UCSD (University of California at San Diego). I decided to go back to school for nursing in 2009. Unfortunately, Fall of 2010 was the first year that the Cal States and the few UC's that had a nursing program started t...

My school has a terrible retention rate, but from reading these posts, it seems like it is not uncommon. We have an NCLEX pass rate that varies from high 80s to 90%, depending on the year. When I was looking at this school, I asked the director what ...

Hey Sam? I know I am not in a good program. I already have a Biology degree, but here in California, because of the budget cuts, I couldnt apply to the CSU's or UC's for a BSN (because I already have a bachelor's degree in something). Our cirriculum ...

David, I have now been in RN school for 1 semester (starting my second) and I HATE it! The nursing part is fine, but the schooling is awful. We had a one unit pharm course and have to look up our meds otherwise. Then they offered these optional onlin...

Thanks David, I was looking at the California programs again. Is there any benefit to getting your master's degree as a PA-C versus an associates or certificate? It seems as though the masters programs are usually quite expensive. I got into nursing ...

I have a Biology degree and have applied to nursing school so that I can become a NP in the future. Then I realized that the amount of schoolong for a NP seems to be alot more than a PA. If you look up certified PA programs in California, half of the...
