Good afternoon, Just started FNP program at Rivier University ? Just wondering if anyone else just started this Spring 2019 like me? What classes are taking? Are you full-time or part time? Will you be working throughout the program? Does your school...

Glad to hear someone else is part-time as well. My school has me due to graduate Fall of 2022 if I remain part-time. Which is part of the reason I would like to switch to full-time so that I can finish in 2 years versus 3. I will know what I want to ...

Hi, Remember me, I started school nursing back in September of 2017. I wasn't in love when I first started but I've learned to adjust and the perks/benefits outweighed how I felt, very baby friendly job, esp since my baby is due May 1st. Just countin...

My application for the full-time FNP program is currently being reviewed. If I get accepted into the fall semester. I will have just had my son a few months prior. He is due May 1st and I will be a first time mom. Just wondering if I'm crazy to start...

@ICU2NP Thank you! I figured it would probably be better to get into it while he's younger versus once he gets older. I've literally been in school forever, at least it feels like it lol From trying to get into the nursing program, to actually gettin...

@WineRN, BSN, RN Thank you! :)

@ruby_jane, BSN, RN Thank you! :) Cannot wait to meet him!

@Cattz I will :)

@OldDude, RN Thank you! I will continue to waddle on. lol

Completely get what you're saying, but as you said nurses aren't necessary but ancillary in the education field, the operations staff would be struggling to keep up with their own tasks and the overflow of students that come to the nurse's office wit...

I get what you're saying but in my eyes it is still a pay cut. I was comparing hourly figures not actual days worked because I haven't made it to a year yet. I know that schools don't go all year round but my bills do. So it equals to a little less t...

I'm grateful to receive what I do because I wouldn't be able to survive on $15/hr the benefits would never be that great! But it seems like overall school nurses don't get paid what I believe we should be getting paid.

I like you was previously making 28/hr and 33/hr on weekends as an RN though at my previous and first nursing job. Started this school nurse position in September of 2017 and they offered me 50,000 which I thought was really low so they renegotiated ...

It's starting off good. Nothing major happening today. Half of the student body isn't here due to the cold and parents choosing to keep them home. I live in MA so the temps are in the single digits Just been resuming the work I started before the ho...

Do you live in MA? We're expecting a snowstorm as well. I'm hoping for a snow day! Yes, even after the holiday break I'm ready for a day off lol

Good morning! My Christmas break begins on December 18th and I cannot wait!! I return back to school on January 2nd. That and the gender reveal party (I'm 5 months pregnant) that I'm throwing on Saturday is what is going to get me through this work w...

Same here!! Cannot wait :)

Thank you! I agree, as a nurse this is new to me so more than a week off seems massive to me. I will take whatever time off I get.

Yes! I'm so excited! We are throwing a gender reveal party on Saturday. Invited about 20 people and will reveal the sex of the baby within the party by popping a big black balloon with blue or pink confetti inside. No I have no clue, we all find out ...

Definitely looking forward to snow days!! :)

Yes, mine are all paid but I'm salary maybe that's why.

Sounds like a busy and fun time for you! Enjoy. I will be celebrating Christmas as well with my boyfriend and friends so that week should be fun! Of course doing something fun for NYE as well as this is my last NYE baby-less. I loved Thanksgiving bre...

I make salary 54,000 school nurse in MA at a charter school. They offered me 50,000 with the job offer and I asked for more money. Still less than what I was making working day shift at a nursing home but its still decent. If I decide to stay in this...

I just started as a school nurse at the beginning of this month and I'm already bored of my position. The days feel so long even though I only work 7-345 because there isn't much for me to do but see students throughout the day and then organize my o...
