Even if the job doesn't say nursing experience. I'm sure its assumed you have nursing experience to be qualified for that position. I think you should try a nursing home, LTC, SNF, school or anything to get some nursing experience. Long-term care o...

No it wasn't.

I have a classic 3. I love it. Most of the peds doctors use a classic of some kind. Some of my coworkers swear by a cardiology. You can always upgrade later.

I had a $50 printer. The ink was $13-20 bucks depending in the store. Print fast draft or economic it saves ink. When you print you can go to settings to switch to that option.

I know it's hard but keep trying someone will give you an offer. It is best to keep up to date with bedside skills while teaching. I wish more instructors realized how important that is like you have.

Every nursing job I ever got and interview except one I used a resume my mother made for me when I graduated from nursing school. She was a teacher at the time and she did it for free because I needed a job. She used some kind of template in word and...

I'm sorry that happened. It seems like you were very willing to own up to and correct your mistakes. It might have just been a bad unit culture ( i.e. Crazy / multiple preceptors). I know that job must have been a lot different than your experience w...

At least give it 6 months and finish orientation med/surg will always be there. It will take a while to develop a new routine.

I doubt they'll consider your medical laboratory experience in your pay because it's not nursing experience. I live in Alabama too. One of my coworkers moved to Nashville and she said they didn't really pay more because people want to live there. She...

They're looking for stuff like drugs and armed robbery.

I went to a public university with a prestigious nursing program that is has the #1 to top 5 pass rate in out state every year. I think that's only because all of our test were nclex style, on computer, no going back. You also got no degree if you di...

You need to visit student services or a learning resource center to get help. Not try to do an online program that is super easy. Nursing school and NCLEX are not easy. Taking easier possibly non reputable prerequisites will decrease your chances of ...

Nurse for a year or two first then began precepting to see if your even interested in education. Your gpa would not be competitive so every little bit will help like a great gre score, serving on committees, extra certifications, super user classes. ...

Ask around and see if peds has any job opportunities or if they're about equal. My area hires more fnps than pnps but I live in Alabama.

Precept, charge, get on unit counsel.

Make sure you have computer with an up to date version of Microsoft word for papers. Our school provided PowerPoints printing them fast draft (or whatever quick option) saves ink. Making black and white copies was also cheaper than color. Get your ow...

Its a mistake your human and things happen. No one was harmed.

Yes you can apply to a BSN nursing program that is not accelerated after completing the prereqs. Contact your advisor about becoming prenursing. The nursing program part for the bsn is about 2 years. You probably will graduate a year or year and hal...

I've never heard this. Renew cpr in December at work and it was not mentioned.

I would refuse to precept him then not worry about. He will not pass boards.

What about peds that's all about the kids. One of my hospital's nnps is male so nicu but that was suggested.

Congratulations

You can be relief charge on my unit after 6months even overore experienced full-time and prn staff. Relief rotates between full-time and part-time staff. No training. I also work acute care peds where its you and another nurse 9/10. We do a few extr...

Dialysis clinic jobs I don't know about the pay. One day surgery, family nurse partnership, health department, employee health, school nurse, poison control, phone nurse for a doctor's office. Check indeed.com, state jobs, monster.com and etc.

I ignore that crap. I rarely write my name on the board because I forget. Its an anonymous survery and they rarely mention names. I know of twice they mentioned a nurse by name and it was positive. My philosophy is I know I'm a good nurse ( so are...
