    How to check Florida Board of Nursing if you passed

    How long does it usually take the Florida BON to show your results. I've sen on this site that it's 24 hours for most people. Is that about right? How long did it take you to get your results? The...

    I take the NCLEX tomorrow!

    I wanted to take the NCLEX as soon as I could, so I signed up for the soonest test date after getting my ATT. I did the ATI 3 day study provided by my school and have been working with the Saunders...

    2014 Pearson Vue Trick (PVT) Poll

    I took the test this morning and got the same thing. I won't know until tomorrow, maybe Saturday if the Florida BON takes awhile to process my test. I had thought I got the good pop-up until I...

    I GOT THE GOOD PVT POP UP!!! Oh I thought I had failed because I wasn't getting those "higher level" questions consistently, but I do see that pop up. I'm over the freaking moon! Thank you Jesus! Now...

    Did they let you know when they were going to make a decision? It sounded like an intense panel interview from the website description. I wish I would have applied

    Sarasota memorial hospital nurse residency

    Let me know how it goes! I probably too late to get interviewed at this point. Will an individual floor interview a new grad, or is it mostly just this residency

    Pediatric Home Health as a New Grad?

    Thank you so much for the advice! And I think I could get my hospital to pay for PALS and NRP. Thank you

    Pediatric Home Health as a New Grad?

    Thank you! I was thinking of working for a few months in the hospital first so I could at least be comfortable with one job before taking on another one. Do you think working in pediatric home care,...

    Pediatric Home Health as a New Grad?

    This company has a specific program for new grads, and they've dealt successfully with new grads in the past. For each patient an experienced nurse goes along to orient with us before we ever are on...

    New Grad Starting Salary

    I live on the West coast south of Tampa, north of Fort Myers. I got a job at the hospital I worked at as an aide. I applied to other hospitals, but they offered few options more attractive than where...

    New Grad Starting Salary

    I think I can speak for Florida. I've heard it's really difficult to get a job in certain areas of the Sunshine State. The highest rate I've heard of for a new grad is $24/hr. I was offered $21-$23/hr...

    Like kissing my brother...

    Job fairs and meet and greets are a waste of time for everybody involved. Our school had a meet and greet with the hospitals in the area. Few directors were actually interested in hiring us, and the...

    still no word

    With any job, I've never been notified that I was rejected for the position. I just figured I didn't get it after not hearing back from the hiring manager for a month. It's a really nasty way to leave...

    Lightweight vs regular Littman?

    Don't get the lightweight. You might as well by a cheapo $12 Sprague. The classic is good. Lasted me through nursing school. I've noticed more and more nurses buying the cardiology. If you can afford...
  20. I now realize that I won't be able to enter the OB specialty right out of school which has honestly broken my heart. I would like to try to apply with a few years of floor experience under my belt....
  21. How do you tell a nurse recruiter you're not interested in a specific floor, without sounding rude or offending them? I'd still like to work at this hospital, but I know that the floor that the nurse...
  22. I got it all worked out. I told the recruiter that while I had enjoyed my time on this unit that I did not feel it was the right match for me. The recruiter then offered me an interview with another...
  23. If you want to be a Certified Nursing Assistant in the state of Florida you need to get certified! If you weren't already certified in another state you do have to take a written and skills test. You...

    I finally got my hospital job!

    During my interview, my manager just talked about the facility and asked why I wanted to wok there, which was easy for me to answer since I had tried to get a job at this hospital since I got...
  25. I recently finished my clinicals on that floor. It's pretty terrible actually. PCU 12 pt's on nights. Scary stuff. There are four hospitals in my area, I can easily go to another one, and I already...
