Hi,I have another question. How is life being an Army Nurse? Do you have time for your family and for yourself during the week. I am a little hesitant because of my family. I know nursing is demanding, I just wonder if it is to an extreme being an Army Nurse. Also, if you don't mind answering what location did you get as your first duty station? I know you are now going to your ASI but when you return will you be allowed to work in that capacity or will you still work as a Med-Surg?Thanks,EbonyGold

Well, I am very happy for you and can't wait to be where you are. Congratulations!!! Thank you so much for taking the time out. I really appreciate it.

Thank you both so much for replying! It is greatly appreciated. - Were you already 68 series when you joined the program? - I am a little confused about the course guarantee. Is that something in your initial contract or after two years or so then it is offered to you? - As far as duty assignments, for duty assignments are you sent to a major hospital/clinic? - How was BOLC? How many phases are there and how long is the total school? I checked the website but they have changed it so much. It use to give a little bit on what to expect your first year. Thank you again, EbonyGold

Hello Everyone, I'm an Army Reserve transporter and I have been selected for AECP and begin nursing school in August. If anyone has gone through the program I really would like to know, how was it? Please be candid. The good, the bad, and the ugly. How was in-processing and transferring from Reserve status to Active Duty. Also, how was your first year as an Army Nurse? - work load/duty hours - training - specialty course guarantee - duty assignments - deployments If there is anything I need to know or should do, please advise. Thanks for taking the time out to read and respond to my post. I really appreciate it. Sincerely, EbonyGold
