Hello, I am a recent RN graduate who has just started at a Subacute Rehab within a SNF. I've been working there on orientation for a little over a month and so far I like it, but I feel like there are too many patients to give them the attention the...

Hibbz in reference to the nickname my hot high school math teacher gave me. Shortened version of my maiden name lol. Em for Emily 17 for lucky number

Isn't WGU competency based? 3.0 is the GPa you earn if I am not mistaken.

Hello all Does anyone have an opinion or similar experience? I'm torn between a peds clinic job and subacute rehab within a ltc facility. Rehab is nights m-f no weekends. Peds is rotating 8-4 with weekends. (Some late days required) Which are is ...

Not late! Thank you for the reply [emoji106] I think I will choose rehab

Thanks!

That's amazing. Thank you!

Is there such a thing? I will be returning for my bsn shortly but was wondering if there's any way to get a job at a Massachusetts hospital as a new grad RN without a bsn Any input is greatly appreciated [emoji4]

Also interested in this topic. I'm so torn. I graduate with my ASN in May and I feel pressure to decide what to do. I'm nervous that if I wait too long to go back, that I will become complacent

My second semester of school was when my husband and I had the hardest time. I was working a lot and my daughter was only a year old at the time. I tried so hard to balance everything. It's just so much to bear. I don't think spouses truly get it. M...

I will be graduating in May from the ASN program. This program is Very challenging. Some of the professors are amazing, others not as much. I do feel like even though they are tough on you they really do care. We use ati testing and from what I've ...

Hi I am currently attending the ADN program at becker and will be entering my third semester this fall. Feel free to message me with any questions you may have. Congrats and welcome.

I lived in Watertown and had a 2 bedroom for only $1200 a month. Nothing included. It was a triple decker third floor apartment in the more "industrial" part of town but I absolutely loved it. I worked in Jamaica Plain and I had about a 20 minute com...

Do you ever have a problem with feeling anxious when others are "watching". This sounds just like something I would do on my everyday life. I get so nervous even though my instructor is very understanding and calm. I have no idea why but I also make ...

Hello allnurses I'm hoping for a bit of advice from other students on how I can better manage my time on the clinical floor. I find myself running behind, especially when I have two patients. I can't find a balance between being with patients, meds, ...

Hi everyone! I am a second semester ADN student interested in an infirmary aide position. It is at a Jewish camp located about a mile from my home. It's not a medical camp, and it serves 2nd grade to 10th grade. Everything sounds great, especially t...

Is that true for RN's as well? I guess maybe I thought that because the tuition is 8k for 9 weeks they might be able to pay a living wage. I'm sure the experience would be invaluable, but I may have to explore other options to provide for my family. ...

By the way I'm always looking for study partners so we can possibly help each other improve

I'm right there with ya! I got an 84. And I don't know whether to be happy that I scored above the 77 minimum or devastated that I can't afford to get any bad grades or my average will drop drastically. I went into the exam after studying everything ...

They took many of my transfer credits! I held a previous associates degree from holyoke cc and I took my pre reqs there so now I only have to take the nursing classes. You do need to pass a TEAS test though which they offer throughout the year

anyone get in? or have any insights on this school? I was accepted to go a 2 1/2 year bachelors program because I already have an associates degree. However, becker has the biggest price tag of all the schools im applying to (elms, hcc, westfield s...

Yeah everyone keeps telling me how tough becker is. I had a quinsig cc student say "wow I hear it's really intense!" I do consider myself to be an good student and so far my teachers seem very helpful. One of the reasons I applied was a recommendatio...

So I've been accepted to both schools for adn. I'm having a hard time choosing. I graduated with my aa in liberal arts from hcc, so I'm familiar with the school. However I do know they use outdated classrooms and equipment which kind of stinks. Park...

I'm doing the adn for the same reason ! Looks like we will be in the same class :)

Thanks for sharing maRN! Really great to hear positive feedback
