Hi all, I need some guidance. I went for a job interview today and it is doing senior home care. Originally it was a full time position and as we were talking during the interview it came up that I was in my FNP program. So I expressed to her that I...

I believe everyone looking for a job will surely find one. I did not have one for awhile and then boom I just started getting interviews and offers. I surely hope it will look up for everyone soon! Biker nurse- I think I would stick with the ICU b...

Thanks Packersfan and S|1011. I will make a list of pros and cons for both when I go on Monday. I hate holding off one for the other but I guess that is what I have to do until I know for sure.

Oh boy.... sorry I thought I come to get some advice....

I am sorry you have to go through this. I think everyone has been through something like this one time or another. It is just such as shame that these jobs do not tell you upfront what the job really entails. I have gone through something like that...

I just resigned from a job where I only worked for two weeks. I personally sent an email because I know I never want to be hired at this organization again. It was an office job and the reason why I did that is because they lied about the job, the h...

Hi there, This is not advice but I am just telling you what my experience was in NY. I don't know what state she is in but I used to be a child protective specialist before becoming a nurse and in the state of NY having an open case does not bar you ...

I attend Saint Joseph's. They don't have ACNP but just FNP. The reason why I like it is because it is self paced. You get 15 weeks to finish a class but I do it as fast as I can to get to another class. I usually take 7 weeks to finish a class. Eve...

Hi, I don't know if anyone knows about this website buy try this and see if you can get a preceptor through them. http://www.enpnetwork.com/nurse-practitioner-preceptors/5758 Good luck

Yes, the way I planned out my schedule because the school took two classes already and I finished one last week and I am starting one tomorrow which is leadership. I have two more out of the 5 cores to do which I think I will do together after I fini...

Hi. I am in the FNP program. I just started but I had a head start because the school took 2 of my core classes from my other university. I just finished nursing informatics and will start nursing leadership on Tuesday. So far I like the classes an...

Hi, I have 2 years of medical school from the caribbean and I put it on my resume because I was a nurse first but did not finish because of family problems. My situation was that I had to include it because I have a two year gap in my work history an...

Morlanmom- I think after your first 6 credits and are matriculated you probably can take 2 classes per semester. I asked the admissions rep and he told me that they want to know that we can handle the classes and that is why they start you off with o...

Hi, I just started at St. Joseph's College. From what I understand, they put you in nursing informatics course first. The letter that I received from admissions stated that my acceptance is provisional and once I receive a B in my first 6 credits of ...

I agree with Sunny life will bring you curve balls because I for sure had them and still do. I am an RN and when I worked awhile in nursing I went to medical school for two years. I have the basic sciences done and all I would have to do is clinical...

Hi, I am feeling the say way as you are. I have been at a hospital for about 9 days. My orientation is for five weeks. I have 10 days left since I am doing 12 hr shifts now. I am not comfortable in this place at all. When I first got there I went...

Hi, I took the online course from NYSNA and it was a breeze. If you are planning to take the certification for NY, child abuse is not the only certificate you have to get. You have to also do the infection disease one as well. They offer that at the...

Update here!!! I was just hired at Montefiore Medical Center. I am just glad to start working. I start Feb. 5th on a regular medical floor. I just went through the whole physical thing and I have OSHA training on Monday. This is very exciting for...

Hi, I interviewed at NYU medical center. I called back the nurse recruiter and she said that the area that I was looking for which was postpartum the nurse mgr was still interviewing candidates. So I guess that hospital is out. She did not even of...

I have been looking for a month and a half now and I still don't have a job either. I am a new grad and passed the NCLEX in December. There are a whole bunch of positions at Mount Siani and Columbia Presybeterian Hospital but I have not got called ...

Hi All, I have not been on this website for awhile because of studying and other family distractors, but I took NCLEX-RN on Wednesday 12/27. I was searching through this section for two days trying to go on different experiences that other people had...

I just used the Saunders book. I did all the questions in the book and then did all the questions on the CD. I also took Kaplan but I don't think I was using any of their strategies unless I was doing it unconsciously. I just read the question two...

Around the 10th question I got two in a row, after that it seemed as if when I answered maybe every third or fourth multiple choice question, I would get one of those dreadful check all that apply. Thank you for the congratulations !!!!!! Lashawn :...

Hi, I had to take ATI's throughout every semester that I was in school. I just graduated from the 14 month accelerated program and every semester that I had a clinical class, we had to take ATI. I only passed OB, community and leadership and failed...

Oh, I know the grant you are talking about. It is where the state pays your tuition, books, uniform etc... and you have to give back 2 or 3 yrs in an underserved hospital or clinic. Here is the info if you don't already know it. http://bhpr.hrsa....
