Don't quit your current job, even if you dislike it. Wait until you have the offer from the other job, and you accept it. Professionally put in your two weeks notice. Don't burn your bridge with them. Let us know how things go.
Take responsibility for the class that you failed. Just fill out a readmission form to repeat the class. Nursing school is hard for a reason. Think back to what you did wrong, change your study habits. Your nursing classes are your foundation to pass...
I think you handled yourself well provided the situation. It seems as though you are doing maid duties not CNA duties. When the client was getting out of hand you should have just stepped outside and called the agency and explained to them what happe...

Reporting that sounds might petty. It may have been a joke, lighten up ad get your shorts out of a bundle. It's just common courtesy for a male to put the seat down after using the toilet. Besides there are bigger things at work for nurses to be worr...

Take what you can get, learn and then maybe in a year or two move on to what specialty you prefer. It's hard to get a job as a new grad. Med/surg is your foundation, start there first, even though psych is not your thing.
You have to live your life and pursue your goals. You aren't her mother, what she needs is a college adviser to help her figure out what career path is right for her. Focus more on yourself, never "push" anyone into something they don't desire to do....

Seems like a great opportunity. I say if you like that hospital accept the job offer and sign the contract. It's hard as a new grad to find a job. Consider yourself lucky because what if you turn down this opportunity and apply elsewhere and don't ge...

Some classmates that I graduated with work at Grand Strand Hospital and what I was told is that new grads start out at $24/hr. I don't know how much differential for nights and weekends. This pay rate was quoted in 2014. BSN nurses are preferred but ...

I guess your next action would be to call your state BON and find out what is really happening since you said they investigated you. That's probably the only way you are going to find out what claims were made against you, and to see if your nursing ...
You simply can't work as a RN if you pass the LPN NCLEX. Your scope of practice would be of an LPN not RN. Now that you have you obtained your BSN, you are eligible to sit for the RN NCLEX. Why not study for the RN exam? If you went the extra mile to...
