I have an issue...I applied to be licensed in MD, everything went through and I am waiting to take the NCLEX in a week. However, I was just offered a position in DC. I am wondering how would I go about switcing over to a DC license. Should I just wai...

Have you completed the online applications along with sending your resume and cover letter? If not I would strongly encourage you do so. I am a NEW NEW grad at WHC and I think they do another residency program in July. So keep an eye out for the jopb...

Im going through orientation now and it is Monday thru Friday, 7am to 3:30 pm. We went thru two full weeks but I it was originally only supposed to be T,W,Th, F of the first week and M, T of the second week. We end up having classes/training that fo...

OMG!!! I hate MBON. Why couldn't they just submit your name to Nursys the same time they did ours? Have you talked to WHC about your situation?

All completed! Very quick and easy process compared to everything else we have been through. I even lucked up with finding parking at each place! It took me about 2 hours including dropping everything off at WHC. So glad that's over with. Ashnem: I h...

OK...yeah I got the same thing. Welp fingers crossed that tomorrow goes smoothly and we can walk out there tomorrow with a temporary DC license!

I think your right. I'll be up there bright and early tomorrow. Do we need a copy of our current license?

I agree!!! This has been a crazy process and it's still not complete yet, lol! I am confused about the fingerprints as well. When I talked to someone he said everything could be done in the same day then someone else said make an appt. IDK what to th...

My name finally appeared. Ashnem your name should definately be there by Monday if it's not already there! I guess we will all be at the DC BON on Monday!

I did speak with Ms. Frisby, who is responsible for verification of MD licenses. She did say that it will be Monday when names will be available on Nursys. So hopefully IT does what they are supposed to do. If so I'll be up there Monday ASAP.

CONGRATS!!! We will be co-workers But yes I can't believe how much money this entire process is costing!!

@ Cuperctar1, No my name has not popped up yet. I called MBON and was told that it should be available by tomorrow or Monday at the latest. I'm hoping for tomorrow though. @Ashnem, I'm pretty sure you did fine! Did you try the Pearson Vue Trick?

Thanks! I finally have a license number as of this morning!!! Now just waiting for my name to pop up in Nursy!

Congrats Everyone! Anyone on 4NE (medical-cardiac)?

WOW!! I wonder if they looked over my name. I completed my background check about a month ago and tested on the 2nd. Hopefully my license number will be posted tomorrow so that I can go to DC BON Thursday or Friday as well. How did you get in contact...

I tested on the 2nd and as of today, the 7th I still do not have a license number. Trying to get in contact with anyone at MBON is like pulling teeth. I called various numbers today, left messages, and sent emails asking if the process could be expid...

Ashnem: I also interviewed for 4NE last month and did tour the actaul unit. It's a really big unit with ,maybe 30 beds. The staff seemed to be very nice and welcoming. Good luck future coworker (hopefully)!!!

I have also been hired as a new grad on a caerdiac unit. Thanks everyone for the information. I'll be sure to keep everything that was said in the back of my mind when I start in a few weeks!

I'm so jelaous of you :)... I also applied to Sibley when I saw that they had openings in L&D but didn't hear anything back! Congrats and good luck!

Ashnem Im in the same situation as you with needing my license switched over ASAP after taking the NCLEX next week. I test on 2/2 and need a DC license by 2/15. I called the DC BON and I was told that we would need to be re-fingerprinted in DC (waste...

I interviewed 2 weeks ago and was offered the job and no one said anything about a committment. So I don't belive there is one. Good luck on your interview!!!!

Futurern123 I am in the same situation as you once were. Applied for my license in MD and end up getting a job in DC. What did you end up having to do and how did everything work out? Thx for your help!

I also will be starting on the medical cardiac unit (4NE)!! Are you still there? And do you like it?

The Md board of nursing is crazy! You have to call inside lines to actually get to speak with someone. Here is the website I used: http://www.mbon.org/main.php?v=norm&p=0&c=contact.html I would just call the different numbers even if it doesn...

I believe that in order to enter a MSN program you have to have a BSN. Some programs have dual BSN/MSN programs.
