  1. HCA New Grad Program (StaRN) at Kendall Regional (Miami, FL)

    leepoffaith replied to RNMPCR's topic in Florida Nursing

    Karen, That could be the hold up. Maybe they really like you and want to hire you, but aren't sure about taking someone into the program without their license yet. Overall I'd look at that as a good...

  2. HCA New Grad Program (StaRN) at Kendall Regional (Miami, FL)

    leepoffaith replied to RNMPCR's topic in Florida Nursing

    Karen, It was at Brandon. If you didn't get it then Jennifer (HR person) would have told you. I know she had to contact roughly 25 people for the PCU program. She doesn't sugar coat things so if she...

    I'm happy to report that I just accepted a spot in the StaRN (PCU) program in the Tampa Bay area and will begin August 25th! I've heard a lot of great things about this program and I can't wait to...

    You will not need to wear uniforms to class times (at least you did not for SouthShore). You do need to wear uniform for clinicals days and that includes the clinical days you do in the lab on

    leepoffaith replied to SILVACH24's topic in Florida Nursing

    As for the BSN program I would tend to agree with Juleby. They have been talking about this since I did my orientation back in Summer of 2012. IMHO if you are intending on getting your BSN then take a...

  7. How to NOT interview for your RN/LPN job!

    leepoffaith replied to musicianRN's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Great topic! As a previous poster already said, as a new graduate I REALLY hope these are some of my competition! I was given a bit of advice by one of my friends in HR and it has always stuck with...

    Financial Aid is always messed up. You will eventually get your money, but it seems to vary every semester. The reading depends on your campus. At SouthShore we were told to enjoy our summer and be...

    That sounds like a great opportunity! I can tell you that unless you HAVE your BSN Tampa General and Florida Hospital won't even look at your resume as a new graduate. (Unless you already work there)....

    leepoffaith replied to SILVACH24's topic in Florida Nursing

    Also, as for community service, that will vary each semester and each campus. For SouthShore you were given pretty specific guidelines on what you were expected to do each semester. Semester 1 we...

    leepoffaith replied to SILVACH24's topic in Florida Nursing

    It's 15-20 lab hours a semester. It's not too bad if you keep up with it. I'm not sure I would recommend taking extra classes during any semester of nursing. You guys will have 2 summers off since...

    leepoffaith replied to SILVACH24's topic in Florida Nursing

    There are a few classes you need to graduate but are not scheduled in the nursing program. I think it's English II and an elective or two. You could do those. Other then that I can't really think of...

  15. hillsborough community college SPRING 2015

    leepoffaith replied to SILVACH24's topic in Florida Nursing

    If I remember correctly we had to do 20 hours of lab each semester. That is outside of class and clinical hours. Each campus usually has a day or two each week during certain hours that you can do...

    leepoffaith replied to SILVACH24's topic in Florida Nursing

    Yes I took the NCLEX and I passed it. :) I am still looking for a job, but I've only had my license for a little over a month. There are a bunch of RN job openings at every local hospital, but most of...

    Yes, all documents must be uploaded to the certified profile website. You can also fax the documents into them if I recall. You have to log into the site and print a particular cover sheet for

    leepoffaith replied to terri8's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I took the NCLEX at 2:00 pm on Friday, June 6th. I had 110 questions and I was very confident that I got the last question right (A good sign if you go over 75). I tried registering and received the...

    leepoffaith replied to terri8's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm not a huge fan of Pearson and I think I've given them enough money so I decided not to pay it. I think it's really crappy that they have results and don't allow us to see them without paying more...
