    hardworkinmama posted a topic in Texas Nursing

    I am graduating in Dec 2012. I've been applying for new grad/intern/resident positions and can't even get an interview. I guess because I have no hospital experience?? Anyway, if I don't get a job,...

    hardworkinmama replied to hardworkinmama's topic in Texas Nursing

    I haven't tried any of those other places yet! Thanks for that suggestion. Do you think it would be difficult to transition out of those roles later? I've always heard that if you go work at LTAC,...

  12. Pregnant starting 2nd semester, anyone BTDT?

    hardworkinmama replied to hardworkinmama's topic in General Students

    True, it's not the same, but from speaking to past students of my program we tend to finish clinicals 3-4 weeks before semester ends. As far as delivering early, well that's a what if. You can't plan...

    hardworkinmama replied to tuttie91's topic in Texas Nursing
