hii! Although I don't work for LIJ, I have many friends who do/have been hired by them within the last few months. It seems as though they start with phone interviews and narrow down their search from there, then you go in for an interview, so it is ...

I attended Farmingdale's program, graduated in 2014 (ADN) and got hired the week after I took my boards. Graduating from an ADN program will reduce your chances of getting a job because a lot of hospitals are looking for BSN students, a lot of the pe...

I myself have never been pregnant, but there is a very good chance the morning sickness/exhaustion will wane after your first trimester. As a person with many nieces and nephews, as well as very good friends who have had children, their pregnancies a...

Welcome to Allnurses...and nursing!! Working as a PCA will defintley help you in the long run, in my experience and opinion, those who had worked as LPN/CNA/PCT/PCAs were more comfortable interacting with patients and had an advantage over those of u...

My boyfriend as a "Congratulations on getting into nursing school!" Gift got me a Littman Master Class II stethescope and while pricier than a lot of the scopes available, it was actually kinda a disadvantage, because it doesn't have a standard Bell/...

Working as a CNA will certainly help you in the long run. Not only will it make clinicals easier, you will be getting your foot in the door for when you graduate, and in my opinion, the longer you work at a job, the more likely they will be to promot...

What was hardest for me, was understanding that 1. I had to read the text book! I cruised through my first BA at a great school without really picking up the text, but in Nursing school? No Way, if I was going to pass the tests, I had to at least rea...

Each and every person is different, I too have never pulled an all-nighter or failed a test. I also have a BA from prior to nursing school, but I think that what has really helped me during nursing school is knowing what study habits work for me. Som...

Thank you all for your responses =) very informative. Yes, I was hired part time, but I was also offered a full time position, but couldn't do it because I'm at clinicals til 11 at a different hospital and wouldn't make it for my shift in time if I h...

Well she is at risk for pain r/t vaginal child birth, interventions include offering prn pain medications and frequent assessments of pain and vital signs, she is also at risk for infection just the same. She also more than likely had acute pain so y...

Hello, I am currently going into my senior year at Farmingdale and can shed some light for you! First off, the entrance exam is only used as a comparision to other applicants. You got a 146, which is a great score, but if everyone who took the exam a...

I'm not sure what state you live in, but where I am in New York, you can work as a Nurse Aide, Assistant or Attendant (each hospital calls it a different thing around me) if you pass a Nursing Fundamentals course. Try looking on hospital websites bec...

Don't ever be ashamed to ask a question, because if you have a question, more than likely someone else does too! You may be the only student who has encountered a less than cooperative patient thus far! When you ask your instructor, start with the sc...
