Thank you very much travelerjen! If you could give me any insight about the math assessment would be great! :)

Thank you so much travelerjen! I did not receive a letter yet, they notified me about my scheduled interview by e-mail. Do you know what type of math are they testing on? Is it medication calculation problems? I will be watching my mailbox :) Congra...

Thank you very much traumaRUs!!! :)

Please tell me your opinion, do you think the Fitbit Force would be appropriate to be used as a watch for a new graduate ICU RN? Displays the time digitally (hour and minutes), and has a stopwatch. Thank you very much!!!

Thank you LakeEmerald and Nalon1 RN/EMT-P, I added military time to my list of criteria :) Great point!

Nalon1 RN/EMT-P, I apologize, looks like one of the administrators with best intentions changed the title of my topic. Fitbit Force is not a watch though, it is a wristband that tracks your daily activity, calories burned, sleep, weight... Besides tr...

Did your school accredit you to teach math? You need to have a certain number of math credits, I believe 15 to be able to teach math, otherwise your school is in violation of the schools accreditation committee regulations. If you do have to teach ma...

Dear tmoney, it takes at least 6 months to become comfortable and to know most things in any new job. Since after 2 weeks you already feel ok with 3 patients, I think you are doing GREAT! It is a learning process, please be patient with yourself. It ...

I have 3 semesters left of nursing school. While in school, with my first degree I work part-time at a local college, teaching general education classes. Today I just got offered a position, Detox Tech, graveyard, at a rehabilitation center. They do...

Thank you Nurse2b209! :) That is an awesome idea! nohika, you are correct, one reason for my hesitation was the fact that there were no RN's in the place. Thank you for the clarification!

Thank you Katie! Great advice!

Thank you very much OKNurse2be, I just declined the Detox Tech position and I am confident I made the right choice :)

Hi MrsEd, Can you tell how how the UNR RN to BSN program is? I am thinking you already completed it... Thank you!!!

Hi Saundee2011, I called the nursing department and was told that in previous years sometimes the books were given to students as gift. They advised not to buy the books because there might be money to buy them for us. They did not know for sure thou...

Hi Lauraa, How are you? How is the first semester? :) I am looking forward to start. I have a question that I would need your help with... Our orientation was changed from December to January. We were also told not to buy textbooks until we attend or...

Thank you very much Laura :) Good-luck in school!

Thank you Laura! I am trying to figure out what my schedule will be and if I should work part time and how many hours I can afford to work. I would like to know how many hours I will be spending in school, could you tell me your weekly schedule pleas...

Hi Lauraa, Thank you so much for your reply and for your advices! It is great hearing from the Fall class. I am very excited about starting in Spring. Could you tell me if the Tuesday and Wednesday 8 - 5 classes are clinicals? Are they at a hospita...

Mine is through TMCC on September 10th After you pay for the drug test, took me 1 day to receive the e-mail with the paperwork. You may want to do that few days before you come to Reno.

Hi Saundee2011, Did you receive an acceptance letter from TMCC? The reason I am asking is that they provide you there with a package code in order to print the paperwork needed for your drug test. You would go to www.certifiedbackground.com, enter yo...

Hi Bio 63, thank you very much for the information!

Hi Saundee 2011, I also registered for my CPR for September 10, we can meet at that time :) That would be great if by any chance you registered for the same date :)
