NurseAndLovinIt BSN, RN

Hi everyone! I am considering moving to the Mississippi Gulf Coast area. I have nearly 2 years of Oncology/MS/Telemetry experience. There is no recent info on any of the hospitals in the Gulfport/Biloxi/OS/ area. Frankly nothing south of Jackson. Cou...

Thank you so much! I appreciate finally getting some real info. If I don't get a travel contract in the next 2 weeks, I am going to have to give up on travel. 2 weeks from now will be 2 months with out a job. So my next step will be to apply on the C...

Sorry I've been out of the loop lately. I hope you see this and can respond Katdog26. I am revisiting the idea of moving to the coast. If I do, I will be applying to Every hospital. I just want to know what average pay is and which hospital is great ...

One of my recruiters ( I have 3 companies looking for me) is showing me the pay package for every assignment she submits me to for me to OK it. I have already completed my first assignment as a travel nurse back in July. For reference, my base rate w...

Yes, I do have a tax home. Even after reading through 12 plus pages on this travel forum, I couldn't find a post to compare mine to. I guess I just want to make sure things are in order. And the base rate is half of my first assignment, so that makes...

Hi all, I will be having to move to Knoxville in a couple of months and I was wondering if anyone could give me some info on the area hospitals please? Which hospital system seems to be the best to work for. Does anyone know if any hospital offers We...

Hey all, I know this should be the easiest interview question; but it really isn't. Like all other new grad RNs, I am desperately trying to get a job. I have had one real interview and one over the phone. I think I botched both by my weak answer to "...

I too am looking into travel nursing in the Baltimore/DC area. I would like to go there as a first assignment because my best friend lives there. I have been researching companies and the 3 that I want to start calling are Flexcare, PHP, and IPI. I w...

Anywhere along the coast. Gulfport, Biloxi, etc. Do you know anything about the area hospitals?

Hey everyone! I am about to graduate nursing school in August with my BSN. I will be getting a TN license but I want to work in Baltimore. I have already submitted applications to positions at Sinai, Northwest, and UMMC. I feel like my resume is good...

:rolleyes:Hey all! I finally got my first new grad interview...a week before graduation! I am so excited and thankful. Its the only one I have and in this economy, I hope its the last (meaning I get the job of course!). So I have 2 questions. First, ...

Hey all! I got an email from a nurse recruiter at Johns Hopkins Hospital. She asked me if I could give her more information about what area of nursing interests me the most "prior to proceeding further with the interview process." I am BEYOND ecstati...

I know exactly how you feel. I have a loan debt of $110,000 and I just graduated with my BSN. It is quite depressing. I'm 27yrs old and it took me 7 years to graduate. My reasons are I could not figure out what I wanted to do and essentially wasted a...

Thanks all for the info! That definitely helps me think of things. I've got some ideas in my head, I think I will write them down for me to read if/when I get another call. I just got to work on not rambling xD

Not just that, but it also says in the little graph comparison that a CRNA has 2-4yrs of education! This leads the consumer to believe that a CRNA ONLY has 2-4yrs of college. This DOES NOT say that the CRNA has a 2yr ADN/ 4yr BSN + an MSN, and not to...

Here's some interesting things. The East Carolinian seems to be completely open to the public - as in anyone can post comments. The paper has what is called "Pirate Rants" that alone is disgusting and appaling. You should see what these "fine college...

He thinks this is so funny. He doesn't realize yet that he just ruined his nursing future. I'm not worried about him caring for patients anymore because it is not going to happen. The repercussions of his article have blown up. On facebook alone it h...

Hey all, just wondering if you all think I am doing too much, not enough, or should do different. I'm taking NCLEX in 12 days. Here is what I have done so far: Downloaded an NCLEX app on my phone with over 3k questions - still have about 1k+ to do. ...

Hey everyone! I have searched this similar topic, but no answers found have been satisfying. I am hoping for some advice on my personal situation. First of all, I just graduated with my BSN. I have held service industry jobs for the past 10 years - t...

Thanks for the feedback! Let me clarify some things: First this hospital is in the process of achieving Magnet status. (if that matters with the interviewing process) Interview 1 was HR, Interview 2 was supposed to be w/NM, but NM had a family emerge...

Hey everyone, could someone please tell me how to find out if a HOSPITAL is eligible? I know how to search for health centers, but I want to know about hospitals. Maybe post a link so I could see what specific hospitals are eligible. Sorry if this i...

Yup, was definitely a new experience. I am in my last semester of nursing school and am doing my leadership practicum. The patient who died was not my patient and I did not see him die. I saw the body during the first two hours post mortem and all th...

Thanks! That really helps!

I am not reading through 300+ pages to see if this has been posted lol. Not a baby, But I did have a patient named (first name)Borned (last name)Black; Mr. Borned Black. 80 something yr old man, and yes, he was AA.

i was wondering when someone would pose this idea. i was going to post: did anyone think that the op is actually a teenage boy who may or may not have been in the hospital recently? if he was, he may or may not have had something "gross and embarrass...
