Also, with very poor feeders...I would suggest feeding every other feed...unless they are showing cues in order to give them some rest..they normally do better with this method in my experience

Hi..this assignment is doable but definitely busy. If all of them were due at 0800..I would have started at 0730..did one at at 0730..the next at 0800..and the one after that at 830...starting with the fastest feeder..on my unit we don't have to have...

reimbursement not loan repayment..only Holy Cross Hospital offers loan repayment

Do they still offer loan repayment at Holy Cross?

They only accept bsn

I would call them with your concerns.

It depends. What is your prequisite GPA? TEAS score? Do you currently work in healthcare? Do you do volunteer work? I would look í ½í±€ at the other post to compare stats. I had a previous bachelors when I applied. A really good TEAS score, and I had...

Same here. " We change TPN and lipids every 24 hours. All other fluids we change every 96 hours. "

Yes they are manageable. I plan my work schedule around test and assignments. I take two classes per semester. I'm hoping I won't have any scheduling issues with the public health class which requires 90 hrs of field work.

Yes @rubyagnes

Hey I'm currently in the program. I only have three more classes to go !!

Hey Erin, If you accept the job offer, please keep in touch. I currently work in the NICU at a hospital in MD, and I'm considering joining the NICU team at CNMC in about a year or so. Would love to hear of your experience as you become acclimated to ...

I have been asking around but no one has been able to give me a clear answer. From my current understanding, I thought call back was when you were on call and you were called back.you get a certain amount of money while you on call and then you get p...

Ok. Thanks I think I figured it out. Call Back you get paid time and half..and bonus you just get a lump sum and then time and half after you are have put in overtime.

Since a thread hasn't been started for Duke Feb 2015 Residency Applicants, I have decided to start one. Feel free to post away and best wishes!!

I interviewed for my dream job about a week ago and still waiting for an answer..and received an offer on a Skilled Nursing Facility on this past Friday. I told them I would get back with them at the end of the week. I also got an interview sched...

Hi NICUNURSE21, You are not alone. i'm a new graduate NICU nurse now too, and I have been off orientation for about 4 months now. Initially I was extremely confident in myself and my skills until maybe about a month ago I was pulled into my manager'...

Desitin or Greer's Goo for the cases where it is so bad it is bleeding. We also prop the baby's butt up and expose to air if it is really bad.

Hi @aimtrue...I'm sorry for the delay. I would agree with everything that sassybunny said; however, I find the RN-BSN program to be much tougher and I went to HCC. It is a whole lot of busy work to me, and I have been taken exclusively online classes...

Hi Vigor, What is the starting salary currently for CN II at UMMC if you don't mind me asking? And also how do you like working there in the NICU as far as scheduling, patient-nurse ratio, etc..

Oh ok. Thanks for the clarification. It must be something new. I just renewed my license in May for two years without having to do a background check. I passed my nclex July of last year and my birthday is in July.

It sounds like you have a temporary license.

I don't understand how they could have presented you with a license, and you didn't pass the background check process.

I know and they gave me year. Everyone else got 2 years. I graduated in 2014 and had to renew in 2015.

No, this doesn't sound like the norm. In the future, I would suggest you shadow before accepting a position and ask specific questions in regards to their orientation process. I would suggest you leave if you feel as if your license is in jeopardy. M...
