1. MSKCC - Do they hire new grads?

   acmsn1012 replied to shadowness's topic in New York

   My mom has worked at MSKCC for over 30 years, and I think the only reason I would ever be able to get a job there would be by name-dropping. I hear that they really do value the experience. They're all so great and professional there, though, and it ...

2. Licensure Number

   acmsn1012 replied to mahoroty22's topic in New York

   I am also tempted to go to Albany, too. I want to ask them if it would be worth the drive to take care of it once and for all. If they think that might help I'll go up ASAP! I'll let you know what I find out!

3. Licensure Number

   acmsn1012 replied to mahoroty22's topic in New York

   I am dealing with the same thing!! I took my NCLEX just a week after you did, but still is a LONG time to wait fora License number! I have gotten through to someone before, and she said to call at like 8:30 on a Monday, when they're not too busy to c...

   acmsn1012 replied to lizzie223's topic in NCLEX

   I can't believe how backed up New York is! I had to call and *ask* for my ATT, and they told me that they're so behind on processing forms, they don't take calls on Tuesdays and Thursdays so they can take care of older requests... Killin meee!!!

6. Just found out I passed NCLEX.. When will my NY license # be posted?

   acmsn1012 replied to lizzie223's topic in NCLEX

   Ughhh takes forever, right!?! I'm so stupid, I kind of just assumed that passing the NCLEX meant I was licensed, so I put it on my resume and sent it out right away after getting my test results... Now I'm worried I look like a liar to all these empl...

7. Just found out I passed NCLEX.. When will my NY license # be posted?

   acmsn1012 replied to lizzie223's topic in NCLEX

   Does anyone have an idea of how long the process takes if I submitted my application for licensure *before* taking the NCLEX?? I got all my papers into the NYS BON in May, and took the NCLEX just last week. Does that improve my chances of getting my ...

9. What do Masters Degree Prepared nurses do in L&D??

   acmsn1012 replied to acmsn1012's topic in Career Support

   Thanks everyone!! Midwifery does sound interesting, but I am more interested in participating in the birthing process in a hospital-setting, with use of medicine and in all situations (low-risk, high-risk, etc.). I don't mean to offend anybody -- bir...

10. What do Masters Degree Prepared nurses do in L&D??

    acmsn1012 posted a topic in Career Support

    Hi Everyone! Well, to start off, I am a nursing student about to enter my senior year in a very rigorous BSN program. I absolutely hated nursing and still had intentions of going to med school in the future (that idea is still in the back of my head)...

11. Saw a horrible ex-patient on the street...Reaction?

    acmsn1012 replied to acmsn1012's topic in Career Support

    Hey there Thanks so much for your kind response -- just the reason why I joined allnurses.com -- I knew it would be a good place to reach out to a community of people who understand each other. After seeing that patient today, I did some thinking and...

12. Saw a horrible ex-patient on the street...Reaction?

    acmsn1012 posted a topic in Career Support

    Hi there I was wondering what some of you do when you see a patient you once had on the street? I have read plenty of articles (including this one: http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/11/10/seeing-a-patient-outside-the-hospital/) about nurses seeing f...

    acmsn1012 replied to OverlyStressedRN's topic in Career Support

    Hey OverlyStressed, I am in nursing school, and I, too, have my serious doubts about the career. I understand the feeling of being trapped in nursing, it's very hard to cope with! Fortunately, although I am unsure of nursing, I have met some great r...
