  6. Clinical Anxiety

    NurseK426 replied to hes1507's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I am an ICU RN currently considering CRNA school. I have to agree, Skip's post is one of the most discouraging things to read regarding Crna school. However, it's a reality (a very scary one) and it...

  7. Seeking advice

    NurseK426 posted a topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I know, another redundant post where I give you all my stats and ask if you guys think I have a shot at being accepted into a CRNA program. Bear with me :) I'd really appreciate any input! RN, BSN...

  9. Not a nurse? Then, why does LPN stand for Licensed Practical Nurse?

    NurseK426 replied to tjmiller's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I worked as a CNA while in school for my BSN. While I've never been an LPN, I've worked with several in both LTC and acute care. I also get the question (although my badge says RN in large letters) if...

  10. Job Uncertainty, help!

    NurseK426 replied to NurseK426's topic in Oncology

    thanks so much for your words of kindness :) they helped me to have the courage to speak directly with my boss about this, and she was very understanding and encouraging! I'm not sure what the future...

  11. Job Uncertainty, help!

    NurseK426 posted a topic in Oncology

    Hello all! A little backgroud on myself: I graduated in May 2011 with my BSN. My first nursing job was as a full time float nurse and an amazing experience. I was able to float to various units...

  12. RN wanting to move to MA from SC

    NurseK426 replied to kam59's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    I have lived in western mass for several years now. I did my senior internship at Baystate on their neuro floor. While it is the largest hospital in western mass and certainly carries a great...

  13. First month off orientation...reflections..

    NurseK426 replied to Damask's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Congratulations on your first month, it's quite the accomplishment! :) It's so true - the first year does in fact fly by. It seems like just yesterday I was sitting at a desk taking the NClex and...

  14. Anyone working in Baystate or Berkshire Medical Center?

    NurseK426 replied to grahamd01's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    I would assume so. Especially since you've already had an interview, you're "on her list" so to speak and it sounds like she's going to keep you in mind. Good

  15. Anyone working in Baystate or Berkshire Medical Center?

    NurseK426 replied to grahamd01's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    That's so awesome congratulations!! You'll have no trouble getting hours while per diem, especially since summer is starting up. I was worried too before starting to float, but everyone was so...

  16. Anyone working in Baystate or Berkshire Medical Center?

    NurseK426 replied to grahamd01's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    I was in the same position as you last May - applying everywhere and getting nowhere. I applied to Berkshire Medical Center (BMC) even though there weren't many openings listed. Finally I decided to...

  17. Do MA facilities hire ADN nurses?

    NurseK426 replied to whitescrubs2012's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    To be honest, I have my BSN and still had a hard time finding a job in MA. I live in western MA, and started at a hospital in September after graduating in May. Several of my classmates are still...

  18. First RN job & it's pay

    NurseK426 replied to Stephen.Stevens's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I am a new grad BSN and started working in a LTC facility in Massachusetts at $23/hour. I am starting a new job at a community hospital in the Berkshires tomorrow that pays $34 (after my evening...
