Yes that's what I got

I have an interview set up for Monday!! Woooooo!!!!

Still haven't heard anything yet í ½í¸–

Hey everyone! I spoke with Dr. Singh today and she said they will be calling those applicants they feel are a good fit to set up an interview in the next week or so. Woo hoo!!

I talked to someone from the school of nursing today and she said they will be reviewing applications through September 29th. Just a few more weeks!

I went to UTEP for my BSN too! I graduated in 2008 í ½í¸Š Hopefully we hear something soon!

I'm here in El Paso and I know a few people who have gone through the program. They say it's tough but very doable í ½í¸€ I've heard it's pretty competitive to get in, which definitely makes me nervous!

I haven't yet It still says under review. Hopefully in September!! Cross our fingers!! Are you local?

Hi!! 😀 Anyone else apply to UTEP FNP for the spring??

Thank you all so much! It definitely makes me feel better knowing I have support from other nurses

Exactly Sour Lemon

I've been a nurse for nearly 9 years now, working in ER, Urgent care and NICU. A couple days ago I was working my shift in the ER and I accidentally gave a patient oxy/acetaminophen instead of hydro/acetaminophen. I told the charge nurse and the Dr right away. The Dr made no big deal and changed the order. The patient was fine, thankfully. I did an incident report and talked to my director. This went up to the CNO and she wanted me fired! My director went to bat for me and I'm now on probation for 90 days. I have no history of write ups, unprofessional behavior, NOTHING. I'm so upset over this and just don't want to go to work anymore. Feel like I'm walking on eggshells now and that's not good when you're working in the ER. I'm looking for a new job but that might look even worse. Any input would be appreciated. I don't know what to do.

Hello everyone! I just need some encouragement. Right now I work nights in a busy NICU. I've been a nurse for two years and always wanted to work NICU. I now have a one year old and desperately want to have a day time job!! It;s hard to get on days where I work so thats not really an option for me. Plus, working 12 hr shifts during the day would make it where I only see my daughter for about 30 minutes, if at all, when I get off work (she's in bed by 8). I'm interviewing for a home health position and it looks very promising. The only thing is, I'm scared to make the jump lol I've never done home health but the hours are very appealing to me. I haven't done adult care since nursing school so that makes me nervous! I'm super excited at the same time though, because I'm ready for a change. I feel like I'm getting bored in the NICU. I just need some nurses who have experience in home health to let me know it's nothing to be scared of lol And just curious what a typical day is like and if any of you have hospital and home health experience, which one allows more family time? I definitely want to have as much time with my family as possible. Thanks for any advice and encouragement!!!
