    Clynn21 replied to Grindaholic's topic in Florida Nursing

    for med/surg in a hospital anywhere from 21-23 base. 23 is on the high end and thats if you work for a larger corporate. Private hospitals are 19-21. This is in Palm Beach/Broward

  5. Moving for Jobs: New Grad RN from MA to West Palm Area :)

    Clynn21 replied to mickeyrose912's topic in Florida Nursing

    The market is very very tough for new grads here. West palm has a level 1 trauma center, and a few other smaller hospitals. Almost all are corporate. The pay isn't the best either. Avg 21-23 for a new...

    I am a new grad (beginning of may), passed nclex on the 6th of June and was offered my current tele position the same day. I was lucky to have worked as a nurse intern/PCA on the very same unit for a...

    Which campus are you on? I it's north I stick by my advice. I didn't have issues with process but I witnessed many people who needed much less than you not pass. It's not a negativity thing it's a...

    Clynn21 replied to Butterflies23's topic in Florida Nursing

    My advice is to drop. It doesn't make you a failure, it saves you from failing very early in the program. A 30 is going to be way too low to compensate for. Trust me you want to save your fail for the...

    you may want to talk to the health science department or the financial aid office. I know they can be morons sometimes, but they can probably give you the best

    Clynn21 replied to couturediva's topic in Florida Nursing

    Hey I had heard a rumor that she was going to take the summer off, may I ask where you heard this? And if in fact it is true I wouldnt take any other campus but north personally. This is coming from...

  15. Broward College May 2011

    Clynn21 replied to couturediva's topic in Florida Nursing

    Yes, I hear central is much harder. I wouldn't have chosen that campus of you paid me. Plus most of the classes there have 4 exams per class as opposed to 3 at north. They said there is no difference...

    Clynn21 replied to couturediva's topic in Florida Nursing

    I'm pretty sure it's about the same when you start in January or August according to friends I've talked to. I'm doing well, I'm on my second specialty 4/9 classes have been completed. I'm on the 5th....

    Clynn21 replied to couturediva's topic in Florida Nursing

    Starting in my is completely do-able. I got a C in process 1 and a B in process 2. I did not work. Anyone who worked with the exception of a few didn't usually pass and had to drop. The weeks are long...

  19. How do I stop being so nervous esp during post-conference for clinicals?

    Clynn21 replied to onlyj's topic in General Nursing

    First try and figure out what makes you nervous. Is it the teacher, is it fear of not knowing everything? There is plenty of time during your shift to sit and write yourself a mini "report". I use a...

  20. What are some study tips for Gi/Gu and Cardiac classes?

    Clynn21 replied to onlyj's topic in General Students

    I am in GIGU right now also. The best tip I can give is time consuming but it works! I make a chart of the diseases or disorders we are learning- the patho, the drugs, the diagnostics, and most...

  21. Broward College May 2011

    Clynn21 replied to couturediva's topic in Florida Nursing

    As far as I have heard the answer to that is no. Reason being the pharm class is already huge (having process and LPN students in it) so I don't think they would make it open to everyone for that...

    Clynn21 replied to couturediva's topic in Florida Nursing

    Just be prepared that if you are applying for summer it is intense. Definitely do- able if you aren't working and have help at home. You will be taking math, pharm, clinical and process 1 at the same...
